About this property

The Urban Retreat - cozy cottage at Reynolds Lake Oconee!

Urban Retreat of Reynolds Lake Oconee inside Great Waters is a luxury vacation cottage located on a quiet cul-de-sac in one of Reynolds' resort communities. Positioned on a shaded lot, it all starts at the welcoming front porch leading into an open family area and ends with a wall-to-wall view of Lake Oconee. You have a view of the lake from every room in the home! Urban Retreat lives up to its name with all the modern conveniences without compromising any of its Southern charm. A short walk away is the Great Waters Marina and Waterside Village, where you will enjoy access to the pool, tennis courts and beach area.

This recently renovated Great Waters home features an open floor plan and coveted views and beautiful sunrises of the lake. Lake Oconee, Georgia's second-largest lake, has over 19,000 acres of boating, fishing and kayaking... just steps away from the back door. The main level features a spacious kitchen with white cabinets and granite countertops, a farmhouse sink and appliances.

For the coffee lovers, the home features a Cuisinart coffee maker and a coffee grinder for a fresh ground bean offering. Plenty of cookware (including two slow cookers) and serving ware will accommodate a romantic dinner for two or a buffet for a hungry family. The dining table will seat six, and two extra counter-height barstools are available also. A wet bar ensconced behind cabinet doors provides a delightful nook for preparing those adult beverages for a sunset cruise or relaxing in an Adirondack chairs on the patio.

The living area features a comfortable sofa, oversized armchair, and a fireplace with a wall-mounted flat screen TV - perfect for game days or movie nights. A reading corner is accented by two armchairs with ottomans, and both within easy viewing of another wall-mounted flat screen TV.

For larger groups, this secondary area to sit back and relax, read, or binge watch Netflix is a thoughtful addition, and it also offers unparalleled views of the Lake Oconee! For those who want some fresh air and a closer waterside view, head out the back steps and watch the sunset from the private swing in the backyard or enjoy a game of croquet from the provided set. If you prefer to grill out, do so in style on the Big Green Egg grill located on the back patio. Also on the main level are a powder room and a laundry room with a utility sink and a full-sized washer and dryer.

Upstairs boasts three generously sized bedrooms, each with a private bath and step-in travertine shower! The master suite is a retreat all its own, with a king bed, flat screen TV with streaming options, and lakeside vistas. The connected bath provides a walk-in closet, custom storage cabinets, double vanity, jetted garden tub, and step-in travertine shower. Guests will find it easy to retire here for the evening but hard to leave in the morning! The first of two guest rooms provides sleeping for up to four with double queen beds, a flat screen TV with streaming options, and closet storage. The private bath features a double vanity, ample cabinet storage, and a step-in shower. The third bedroom showcases a queen bed, flat screen TV with streaming options, and a private full bath with a step-in shower.

Thoughtful design and amenities at Urban Retreat make this home-away-from-home feel like a true luxury vacation experience. With comfort throughout its two stories, guests may not feel like venturing beyond the front porch. However, if you are curious to check out local life, the Great Waters community is just minutes away from Harmony Crossing, home to some of our favorite cafes, restaurants, and boutiques. Travel a little further north on Highway 11 across the bridge and you will find additional stores, restaurants and a Publix grocery store.

Fantastic experience
I recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning lakehouse on Lake Oconee, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the breathtaking views of the lake and the serene surroundings. The house itself is beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. The spacious living areas are perfect for both relaxation and entertaining, with plenty of comfortable seating and large windows that let in natural light. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare meals, and we loved enjoying our morning coffee on the dock short walk from the house. David, our host was incredibly responsive and helpful, providing clear instructions and making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Overall, this lakehouse on Lake Oconee is a perfect getaway for anyone looking to relax, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of nature. We can't wait to return and create more wonderful memories here!

Warm welcome
Loved the easy entry into the house. Warm welcome with American flag on front porch. We were greeted with a welcome chorus from the cicadas (our first time hearing them!) REALLY appreciated all the light switches being labeled!! Lotion to soothe my sunburn . Enjoyed the beautiful wooden swing in backyard. The view is beautiful and the neighborhood is peaceful and calm. Communication with the owner was great! We enjoyed meals at The Rock Eagle 4-H center for their Sunday buffet and Silver Moon. The guys enjoyed at 4 hour fishing trip on the lake with Mark Smith at Reel Time Guide Services.

Everyone in our family loves the lake life (kids and adults). We have arranged this home for you to come, relax and enjoy all the wonderful things that Reynolds Lake Oconee has to offer!

Why they chose this property

We love the secluded feeling you get when you're at Urban Retreat in Great Waters! A true tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of the fast paced life we all get caught up in at times. Wildlife flourishes in and around Lake Oconee. Catch a glimpse of a fish jumping out of the water, an osprey or bald eagle swoop in for dinner, or spot a local whitetail deer out and about for their afternoon snack. Fox squirrels are also prevalent in this area, not uncommon to see one of these beauties out and about also!
