Awesome Lakefront Camp

A great property on the lake in a quiet, private location. The camp was very cozy and clean. I love the deer theme and saw several on the property during my stay. I was able to fish from the dock -it is a great set-up for a boater. Very cool cabin! Highly recommended!

Fishing Weekend

My son and I had a great time. The cabin was clean and perfectly sized for us. The only recommendation I have is the lighting. Dimmer switches seemed faulty and lights flickered when on. Lamp light was sufficient enough to not need them but I recommend having an electrician check on just for safety reasons. Otherwise a great place.

About the host

Hosted by Barbie Hartsfield

Host profile image
Barbie (owner) designed the cabin after finding the lot during a week-end trip to the area . She and her family built the cabin - - The mounted deer head on the wall is her son's first - - and he was a young teenager at the time and helped with the building work - as well as his father and both of his grandfathers, one came down all the way from Wisconsin to help! She lived in Tallahassee Florida at that time and now lives in Louisville Kentucky.

Why they chose this property

Fell in love with the clear water and sandy beaches and tall Georgia pine trees and the surrounding Alabama Hills - the lake is Ideal for swimming, boating and fishing and has many fishing tournaments and events held at the George T. Bagby Georgia State Park which is just 3 miles south of the cabin - just a boat ride away! The state park has a marina and lodge and restaurant - boat to brunch!

What makes this property unique

The cabin is right on the water with large private covered dock and boat slip, electric and lights - it provides great fishing and the most amazing sunsets over the water! Great swimming and boating and nature watching and star gazing! You can sit on the covered dock and enjoy a summer rain shower - float on rafts and enjoy music from the ipod player that is provided. Dock is large enough for the whole family to enjoy fishing - the lights provide great night fishing. I've had guests that love the dock so much they have slept several nights on it! It is a rejuvenating - relaxing - escape "off grid" from busy stressful living - hear the wind in the pines - the birds of all kinds - warm sun in the day and cozy fire and star gazing at night!
