The furniture was comfortable. Gorgeous views from the kitchen, living room and master bedroom. The home is in a great location close to restaurants like Marina Station, Wild Hawg and Brothers.

Dancing Bream was such a great stay in Hiawassee! Our one night while passing through the North GA Mountains made us want to book another trip very soon! Not ideal for 3 couples as all of the bedrooms “connect”. But for a single family or two couple and kids it’s a great spot. My daughter loved the beautiful dock and deck space! The hosts were excellent and very helpful! We will definitely plan to be back and take full advantage of all of the Lake has to offer!

Great vacation

We went during spring break—my husband and I, our teenager, and his friend. The location on the lake was perfect, and the house was fully stocked. Literally anything that you could need is stocked for you. We fished a lot. We only caught a few, but the boys still had a blast. I would definitely go back in the summer when we could take better advantage of the lake.

Long weekend getaway

My husband, daughter and I stayed here for a long weekend. We LOVED the place! It was very clean and had everything you could possibly need. The double decker dock had amazing views and the kayaks were fun to take out. The hot tub was great and the fire pit was a nice size. We just bought some wood at the local Ingle’s. We all had a great night sleep and found the neighborhood quiet and lovely. Gorgeous views all around! We definitely plan on coming back!

Best Hosts, Beautiful stay

I became very sick a week prior, 2 hospitals; miserable... The host switched our dates for us which was so very kind. Staying at the cottage was peaceful and comfortable. The hosts were there for us when we had any question - they went above any and all expectations and we are thankful for and to them! The cottage is beautiful and so clean. Couldn't have been a better stay.

What a memorable family trip!

We couldn't have picked a more lovely holiday getaway. The views of the lake are breathtaking, sunrise/sunset, etc., and such a beautiful property to relax and unplug at. The place in general has a really nice woodsy feel and our dog loved having all that within feet. The Christmas decor during our stay was such a nice surprise, and added a special touch to all of our festivities. We all really loved the huge back deck overlooking the lake, and scenic drive around the lake into town. Our hosts were so attentive with any question or need, and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Our family can't wait to return!

Wonderful Vacation Spot

We enjoyed our stay at The Dancing Bream. The house was clean, well stocked with basic necessities and it was a private, peaceful setting. The area is nice and we found fun things to do. Horseback riding at Chunky Gal Stables in the Nantahala national forest was awesome. If you don't have your own boat, check out Aqua Tiki for a fun ride around Lake Chatuge. For some absolutely great fishing, give Shane a call at Big Ol' Fish and he will turn you on to some great hybrid/striper fish. Thanks Karen for letting us enjoy your place and for your attentiveness during our stay.

Lovely home with Amazing views!

This is a great getaway to hike and relax. The home matches the description from the website. The lake views from the oversized picture windows are stunning. The house is roomy, comfortable and well insulated. There is a nice campfire ring and at night the moon reflects on the lake, so beautiful. There are so many places to hike. Our favorite was Raven Cliff Falls Trail near Helen. The host is friendly and responds promptly to requests. We truly enjoyed our time at Dancing Bream.

Truly can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay. The bedrooms all near each other for our family of small children to feel safe (also a gate we could close had we had smaller kids to keep them from going to the lake alone). Nice living area and kitchen. Deck and dock were awesome! We really hope to come back.

This was our second stay at this perfect Lake House. The owners are amazing and so receptive and prompt. We brought my elderly parents this time, as well as our dogs. The lot is nice and level with new stairs to the amazing dock. Also, the dock has sloped stairs into the water for ease of access. The house is all on one level. The rear wrap-around porch is fantastic for watching birds and the quiet cove. We highly recommend this house!

About the host

Hosted by Karen Harris

Host profile image
We love the North Georgia Mountains and have been visiting Hiawassee for over 20 years. I have lived in Georgia all my life and have traveled around and have never seen anything as beautiful as the small town of Hiawassee and beautiful Lake Chatuge. We have other rental properties in Hiawassee and we plan on retiring here.

Why they chose this property

We feel very fortunate to have found this property. This lot and home was owned by the original owner since it was built over 40 years ago. I can see why they never moved and enjoyed life on this part of the lake. The home is on a point and fish like to spawn in the area which makes it a great location for fishing. Dancing Bream is located at a very quiet location on deep water so all year long fishing or boating is available. The home is now renovated, new covered dock slip with viewing deck added in December 2020 and looking for future travelers to experience the beauty of Lake Chatuge and the surrounding mountains.

What makes this property unique

Dancing Bream is a beautiful ranch home with a water and mountain view along the entire back side of the home. Only a few yards to the dock that has deep water all year long. There is a camera over the boat and front driveway for safety. This property is on a point near a cove with over 150 feet of water frontage. Under beautiful oak, hickory and cedar trees gives a nice privacy and quite get away yet close to all Hiawassee has to offer. Sit back from inside or the large deck and watch the ducks and fish jump from around the dock, go fishing or just take a couple chairs down to the dock and enjoy more mountain and lake views.
