Thanks for staying at the Lake Cabin during your cycling meet in Dahlonega. Sorry about the cobwebs. Fall is spider season in North Georgia. We take them down daily and they return. They are called Joro spiders. They are harmless but certainly persistent. Come back and visit the property anytime. You left the place in outstanding condition.

Great house and property! We were in the area to attend a family wedding. It was secluded yet very close to shopping, restaurants and other activities. We really enjoyed the outdoor gathering areas for relaxing and visiting. Our host Michael was so helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had. Highly recommend this property to others.

Thank you so much for your kind words and also, thank you for leaving the cabin in such good shape. I'm glad everyone enjoyed their time and that the weather held out, because we certainly avoided the forecasted storms. Please come back anytime. Your crew was a pleasure to host. Thank you. Michael

We had a large family gathering- 5 adults, a teenager and 4 little grandchildren. Mike’s place was perfect for it. Lots of bedrooms, baths all nice. Very comfortable, attractive interior, great kitchen and a good dock on a nice cove. Easy (not steep) trail to dock. Mike was a great host, very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay there again.

The property was exactly what was listed and suited our needs perfectly. Our host communicated well and we enjoyed our stay. The only real negative was that we had to wash several of the dishes before we could use them (previous renters fault?) and the floor was not completely clean in a few places. Definitely 9 out of 10 and we would certainly stay there again!

Hello, Patty, thank you for posting the review, and I'm glad that your family had a great experience at the cabin. I'm very sorry to hear that there was an issue with a dirty floor in one of the rooms and that someone put away dishes that weren't clean. We will certainly address that with our cleaning crew and make sure it never happens again. We look forward to your return to the property and hope you have a great rest of your summer.

Great location for our daily shopping in Dawsonville and Deloniga. The Outlets in Dawsonville are excellent. We had great meals at every restaurant we went to. If you are visiting during the Holiday in December I highly recommend making reservation at the restaurants a day or two in advance. The Deloniga parade was super fun.

Excellent property. We had plenty of room for our whole family. Loved swimming in the lake and fishing. We were also close to some great shopping. We felt like we were far away from everything but were still able to go do things if we wanted to.

We had a wonderful family Thanksgiving at the cabin. There was plenty of room for all 10 of us. The cabin was clean and kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, etc. We were able to easily cook a Thanksgiving meal for ten. We have often stayed in VRBO rentals and Michael was the best host we have ever had. He responded right away to every question we had, and even left a delicious pie for us when we arrived. We hope to return again!
