Nice Family Getaway

We had a lovely stay and hope to return! The house came with everything you needed. Our favorite part was the view from the large screen porch. We enjoyed coffee, meals, and happy hour from there daily. My only complaint would be that there is no trash service, so you have to take everything with you, but I understand that its hard to get trash service up there and the owner suggested a few close by spots to dispose of. Overall we had a fantastic stay with our family! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Beautiful lake escape

Burton Lake Escape is such a beautiful and peaceful home. Its location on the lake is perfect. The cove had very little boat traffic which made it perfect for kayaking and using the canoe. Our 9, 16, and 18 year old kids caught several different types of fish right off the dock. We loved all the outdoor games provided as well as a well stocked game cabinet inside. We had everything we needed right there at the house. There was no reason for us to leave but if we needed to, Clayton was a short 25 minute drive away. We had an amazing stay at this house and would love to visit again.

Family Vacation

This is our second stay at this lovely property. The easy access to the water is great for littles and seniors. Canoe and kayaks are provided and we enjoyed paddling around the lake. The screened in porch was an awesome place to gather for conversation and food. Kitchen is well stocked and the grill is charcoal, which I prefer. Marti was great at offering suggestions for activities and restaurants. We hope to return to Lake Burton Escape next year!

Lake Burton Escape THE Perfect Getaway

Rarely in our travels have we found such a well stocked, well planned and executed vacation rental! The experience is built around a gigantic enclosed porch that offers a stunning view of Lake Burton's beauty! Beneath the porch, lies a well manicured lot offering hammocks, swings, fire pit and an easy walk down to your private dock and boathouse. The included canoe and kayaks are easily launched and open up easy access for getting on the water.Back at the house, the master bedroom opens onto the porch allowing the wonderful view 24/7. The downstairs mini master has it's own view and easy access to the outside activities. i.e. ping pong, grilling and corn hole.Perhaps the greatest surprise was the degree to which every subtle detail had been taken care of. For example, we had full DISH service offering Internet a full array of programming and music channels. As compared to the more common practice of giving you internet access and requiring you stream your own content. There was also a working landline with contact numbers for local hospital, vet clinic and emergency contacts.Suffice to say, we were very pleased with our long weekend stay and look forward to coming back in the near future....!P.S. Our golden retriever, Lizzie gave it 5 paws !

Most wonderful vacation home

We love this home and location and have returned several times for family vacations. The host is very cordial, friendly, and helpful and has made her lake home so comfortable and inviting as well as beautiful that you will not want to leave. She also makes sure that basic supplies are available, including cooking supplies, condiments, bath accessories, and paper goods, and provides beach towels, rafts and lake toys, and even wood for the fire pit. I have no hesitation recommending it highly.

We ADORE this home. It's big, but cozy. Everything you could think of needing or wanting is there from a ping pong table to kayaks and canoes, and games. The well-stocked spices cabinet and great cookware were much appreciated and made us want to stay in all the time! The owner is SUPER nice and accommodating. Really, everything about her and the place is welcoming and warm. It's a gem and I will definitely be looking for future opportunities to stay here again!

Summer Fun

Our family had a wonderful week at Lake Burton Escape. The property has easy lake access. We enjoyed the canoe and kayaks. The kitchen had everything we needed and the grill was very nice. There is so much to do in the area, we were wishing for more time. We saw a bear crossing the road about 5 minutes from the house! Marti was great to offer suggestions and answer questions. We hope to return to Lake Burton Escape next year.

Perfect spot on the lake....

My mother, sister, and I rented Marti's perfect lake house for a quick getaway, and it was just what we wanted. I rent lots and lots of houses every year, and Marti was always fabulously quick to answer any questions that I had during our planning. The house is perfect. It sits right on the water on a lovely, quiet part of the lake. The water was clear (and wonderfully warm). The kayaks, the gigantic screened porch, the dock, the well-stocked kitchen....the place is an adorable gem.

Wonderful and Beautiful!

We stayed at the house for 4 nights with 7 people total. The house is gorgeous and comfortable. I couldn't have picked a more cozy place to stay. Amazing views of the lake and sunset. The cove is great for paddle boarding, kayaking, etc. as well. The beds are super comfy and the house had everything we needed, including a fully stocked kitchen. Beth is wonderful and gave plenty of details about the property, area, etc. We also rented a pontoon from Anchorage that we enjoyed cruising around the lake on. We will DEFINITELY be staying at this house again! :) Thank you Beth!!!!!!

Another stay at the relaxing, peaceful Burton Lake Escape

This was our second stay at the Burton Lake Escape house and we had another fabulous stay! We love the location (in between marinas and close to the Farmhouse Market and the recycling center), the screened in porch, the pet area is great for our golden, and the big TV is awesome for fun nights. Since our stay was at the end of the summer, the kitchen was well stocked with spices, coffee filters...thanks previous renters! I am thankful for the supply of dishwasher pods, clothes washer pods and trash bags. The house comes equipped with everything you need. We also enjoyed the kayak and spent most of our days on the dock and in the swing. It's a lovely setting. Will definitely come back and would recommend to everyone.

Awesome Weekend!

Our first stay at your Lake Burton home was everything and more than we envisioned. First, the house was immaculate and very well laid out. We had 6 adults and three children on the trip and there was plenty of room for us all. A couple of nights were cool so we enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and there were plenty of fish biting at the dock. The full length screened porch and seating areas really set the house off. We had friends, who have a home on the lake, and their family over for dinner and a music jam session on Saturday and, again, plenty of room for all. It was such a great time that we wouldn't hesitate going back given the opportunity. Everyone loved it. Thank you for sharing it with us.

The Perfect Choice for a Lake Vacation!

We just spent ten days in an idyllic setting on Lake Burton at the perfect house for my husband and myself and our son's family of five. "Burton Lake Escape" had everything we were looking for: a house that was roomy enough, yet still comfortable with a cozy home-away-from-home feel, and that's just what we found. The furnishings were very comfy... the two large sofas in the great room were big and soft, the beds were extremely comfortable, the dining room table had ample room for all of us, and all of it very clean and with a decorator' s touch. The kitchen was open to the living area and filled with quality equipment. But the best part of the house was "The Porch"...a huge screened room running the length of the upper floor which allowed us to feel as if we were in a tree house with birdsong and cool breezes and a way to feel like we were on the lake, even on the couple of rainy days we had! Attention to detail was evident in every room. The landscaping was beautiful... stone pathways, flowers, even an herb garden we were encouraged to use! Benches, swings, a hammock, a ping-pong table, a fire pit area, were all welcome amenities. We brought our boat and jet ski and had a perfect spot to tie up at the boathouse dock with room for parking the trailers on the circular driveway. Something I really appreciated was that the house was fairly close to lake level, so with my recent knee surgery, there were not hundreds of stairs to climb up and down! Finally, I must say we so very much appreciated being able to bring our doggies!!! We have stayed in other houses on Lake Burton, but this is the house we look forward to returning to! The owners were very responsive and kind! We loved it! Thank you so much!

About the host

Hosted by Marti Schwab

Host profile image
Our family first started going to Lake Burton in the early 70s and rented a rustic cabin at Cherokee Landing camp. We loved it so much that we eventually bought our own property and have been enjoying the Lake ever since. We would spend our week days in Atlanta and weekends at Lake Burton. We have all grown up now and with that our lives have gotten busier with our children, their sports schedules, etc. So we unfortunately aren't able to get there as much as we would like so that's when we decided to share it with others! Let us share some of our southern hospitality with you and your family.

Why they chose this property

The original cabin that stood on this lot was purchased by my family in 1972. It was a 3 room rustic cabin with a great screened porch. It was tiny but we have so many great memories of our childhood vacations...water skiing, tubing, fishing, playing games, hunting for Indian pottery on the shoreline, etc. We lost the old cabin to a fire approximately 17 years ago, so we rebuilt it bigger to accommodate our growing families and have been making improvements and new memories ever since! It now has a master bedroom on the main floor and open kitchen, dining and living room areas as well as a screened porch running along the entire top floor overlooking the Lake. We love to go up and relax. It is so peaceful...away from the hussle and bussle of Atlanta traffic. Now it is time for you to build some wonderful memories for your own family. Rent today!

What makes this property unique

A very relaxed, casual atmosphere. Tasteful cabin feel. Nice amenities without being too stuffy. Right on Lake at end of cove. Safe for kids.
