About this property

North GA, Timpson Cove Cottage. Just a few hundred yards to Lake Burton.

We’re located on an acre in Rabun County where Timpson Creek meets Lake Burton. We’re just down the street from lake access at Anchorage Boat Dock, and under a mile from the public beach access on nearby Charlie Mountain Road. We’re just off Highway 76 and a short drive to downtown Clayton, GA (6 miles). The Appalachian Trail is just up the road, as well as Waterfall Club Resort and Golf Course. Basically, we’re right smack dab in the middle of much to do in Rabun County. From hiking, waterfall sightseeing, cycling, fishing, boating, skiing, and overall lake-relaxing, we’re at the heart of what northeast Georgia has to offer.

Our home has 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths. The Primary bath has an additional clawfoot tub. The Primary bedroom is quite large with fresh carpet and a very comfortable mattress. There are 4 beds total: 2 King & 2 Full (an additional inflatable mattress and “pack’n’play” are also available). We have a full laundry room and supply closet, a screened-porch, fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and ample room between the fireplace and living area. There’s also a charcoal/kamado grill above the fire pit, nestled along the driveway.

About the host

Hosted by Chad Pelton + Christie Bazemore

Host profile image

Both of us grew up spending our summers on lakes (Christie’s family has had a cabin right here on Lake Burton since the 1950s), and we wanted a home that made us feel like we did when we caught our first fish, when we made our first dive, and when we took our first boat ride. We wanted the smell of a grill, the coolness of the mountain air, the sound of a creek, and we wanted a lake tradition we could share with others.

Why they chose this property

From the get-go, we wanted to provide a lake cabin of old, a place with elements of the past, but obviously modern touches and comforts of the present as well. It’s not a fussy mansion of a house. Rather, it’s a 3-bedroom, 3-bath cottage in the woods, within walking distance to boat and jet-ski rentals, as well as fishing gear, groceries, and even the local bar is within a short walk up Hill Camp Lane.

What makes this property unique

300 steps from Lake Burton. Less than a mile from the public beach on Lake Burton. 6 miles from Downtown Clayton, GA. Access to National Forests, waterfalls, hikes, fishing, scenic drives, and all that north GA has to offer.
