About this property

Lakefront cottage on rustic setting in cove

This is my beautiful home on Lake Oconee. The 0.6 acre wooded lot magnifies the great outdoors surrounding this 2 bedroom, 2 bath retreat from the world. Tucked away in a private cove it features a big water view just right around the point from Sugar Creek Marina. Relax by the fire pit on the hill or take off from your dock to enjoy the great water of Lake Oconee. Canoe available or dock your own boat. Electricity available on the dock. You will be surrounded by nature and woods. Three friendly outdoor neighborhood cats may come to visit. Your own pet is also welcome. The open floor plan has the great room attached to the kitchen filled with new appliances and plenty of cabinet space. Beyond the great room is an outdoor porch with ceiling and open deck overlooking the water. Bathe leisurely in the antique claw foot tub upstairs or choose the downstairs shower. Two bedrooms sleep four and you can climb the ladder to the bonus room to sleep two more. TVs with Roku are ready to watch in the living room and queen bedroom. Fire TV in the full bedroom. Get ready to spend your time on the lake!

Great Stay

The house was perfect for our stay. Everything we needed was there and the house has great views of the lake. The back deck is huge and is an awesome spot for everyone to hang out and relax. We are already making plans to visit Lake Oconee and stay with Karen again.

Amazing View!

The pictures really don't do it justice. The view from the living room, kitchen, and back porch are amazing. The house is clean and cute. My daughter loved jumping off the dock into the lake. My son loved being able to walk out and fish whenever he wanted. We took the canoe out a couple times which was nice. We actually rented a jet ski as well and were able to drive it right up to the dock. The owners left such a nice little set up with some snacks and coffee supplies. I highly recommend this spot!

Lake Oasis

Myself and my family needed a quick getaway to just relax for a couple days over the memorial weekend, we got far more than what we ever could think. The property was serene, and the house was very nicely designed with quirky details and very comfortable and more importantly, very clean. Karen's home was spacious for two bedroom two bath very roomy and my grandkids who are two and three enjoyed the playroom. My husband truly enjoyed the dock in which he caught seven catfish, even though it rained most of the time we are up there with the covered patio. We were still able to enjoy being outside and relaxing. Also, we so appreciate the fact that she allows dogs because we love our four-legged family members and travel with them frequently. We absolutely enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back.

Amazing Host and Lovely Property

This was exactly what we needed after having to evacuate our home thanks to Hurricane Helene. It was a perfect little hideaway that had damn near everything thought of already set up. The owner was amazing through the process and I would definitely Stay there again.

Great lake getaway

It was our second time staying here and we enjoyed it so much both times. They have everything you need. Plus, we brought our boat and could easily put in at the ramp down the road and keep it at the dock.

Relaxing lake view.

The location was amazing! Owner was awesome and the home had lots of nice touches: snacks, waters and coffee/creamer. The home was super cool set up but does need some upgrades. It was clean and very comfortable.

Girls Trip

Just what we were looking for. A relaxing stay. We spent most of our time on the porch and floating around in the lake all day. The house was very clean and we were given good instructions for our stay. The neighborhood cats were fun to have around they made us feel right at home.
