We had a great stay at this beautiful property. The owner was very responsive and helpful, the cabin was super clean with three big bathrooms, and the lake access was fantastic (loved the canoe), with great fishing! Highly recommend, thank you for the stay Marti!

Clean, roomy lake house with great water and trail accessWe stayed at Marti's lake house on Lake Burton in Rabun County and would book it again.The house was clean when we arrived. Floors, kitchen, bathrooms, and linens were all in good shape, and nothing needed attention before we could settle in.It's a two-story home with plenty of room. The bedrooms are a good size, and the bathrooms are larger than what you usually find in rentals.The two decks are big, with enough space for the whole group to sit outside at once. We ate most of our meals out there. The grill worked well and was ready to use. There's also a good amount of outdoor seating away from the deck if you want a quieter spot.The boat dock made it easy to get on the water, and we used it every day for boating, water skiing, and canoeing. When we wanted a break from the lake, local hiking trails were close by. The house was well stocked, so we didn't have to make a store run for basics like paper towels, dish soap, or cooking supplies.If you're looking for a comfortable, roomy place on Lake Burton with good outdoor space and easy access to the lake and trails, this is a solid choice.

This location exceeded our expectations. It was clean, comfortable, spacious, and cozy. We were able to enjoy the dock and the screened porch. Loved that we were able to bring our pup along with us. She loved the dock. Beautiful view. Also appreciated how well equipped the home was in the kitchen - everything you could need! Thank you for a wonderful stay. Check in and check out was incredibly easy. The host was quick to respond to any questions. We will absolutely be back!

Beautiful lake cottage! The screened in top deck is where we spent most of our time. We rented this place for my birthday weekend, and the host had a Happy Birthday banner hanging on the fireplace when we arrived. Such a thoughtful touch! We highly recommend this place, and hope to stay again sometime.

This was our first stay at Lake Burton and this was an excellent choice! Marti the owner is very responsive to queries, the check in was easy and we loved the home.

Memorable lakeside accommodations

Our expectations were exceeded by this exceptional lakeside property. Everything we could have imagined and we have big imaginations! Clean, comfortable, inviting, well appointed, spacious, are view words that come to mind. Lake Burton was a big hit with our San Diego family as well.
