About this property

Almost Perfect Cabin

Attention: We are the last dock in the cove and we totally dried out at the dock. No water activities are possible right now of the dock. Deep water access for all water activities is available at public boat ramp within two minutes all year around.

Our home is a very nice and cozy A-style log cabin on Lake Hartwell’s lakefront property, in Gumlog, GA.

If you’re looking to escape the concrete jungles and urban grind of metro / city living, for a nice break, rest, and relaxation; this is an ideal choice.

The house is in an idyllic, and quiet setting on beautiful Lake Hartwell, on the Georgia side.
You will be in a pristine country setting, very close to the foothills (beginnings) of the Appalachian Mountains; yet do not have to give up on benefits of a modern home.

Our cabin is fully furnished and equipped with all amenities: Central air (HVAC); kitchen appliances, smart TVs, and wifi internet.
Floor plan is very open, with living area having an all-wood cathedral ceiling for a beautiful, classy look and feel.

Loft has a master (king size) bed, and a landing / lounge area with 65” smart TV, a chaise lounge, and a pull-out sofa. (Sleeps 2)
Living area (downstairs) has 2 bedrooms.
One of them is kid friendly; with 1 bunk (i.e. 2 twin size) bed and another separate twin bed. (Sleeps 1)
The other downstairs bedroom has a luxury queen size bed.
A covered deck with a grill completes the cabin.

The property is off the main road in very quiet surroundings in over an acre of land.
A dock on the lake is part of the property and is ideal for launching kayaks and canoes off it.(as of today there is no water at the dock, no water activities possible)
The water level at the dock varies depending on the month of the year. When the lake is at full pool; most boats can also be moored at the dock.

(Boat Ramp is around the corner on the main road; 0.4 miles away.)
We provide floats, life jackets, etc.; you can have a fun time just lounging / hanging out at the dock. + 2 kayaks, lake pad, 1 kid kayak

We are eager to host you and yours; looking forward to providing a five-star experience during your stay.

The cabin is cozy, inviting, and clean. It was perfect for my needs, which were to relax and get some quiet. The town is very near and I was able to get food delivered easily when I didn't want to leave. I wish I had more time to have a longer stay and take advantage of the porch, go to the state park, and see more of the downtown.

North GA Wedding Trip

We really enjoyed this cabin. It was very clean and well stocked with lots of extra amenities from fans in all the rooms to toys for kids. The beds were very comfortable and made for a relaxing visit. We were only there for the weekend for a family wedding but wished we could have stayed longer. We very much enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful views, nice location, and fully stocked house for cooking meals and enjoying time together. The owner was quick to respond to any questions and very helpful with providing quality information in welcome emails. We will definitely be coming back.

Lovely cabin

Overall a great cabin on the lake. The cabin was clean and what was as expected from the pictures. The owners had lots of extras around like toiletries and condiments. The area is very peaceful and pretty. Using their kayaks was one of our favorite activities, and the kids really enjoyed exploring the area. I would absolutely recommend this place.
