Perfect Lake Retreat ❤️ Boat Rental Available! VRBO Next Door For Big Groups!

Kedra on the Lake, where loved ones gather in a perfect retreat and the 7th night is always free! Loads of room to spread out! Kedra is the perfect mix of space, accommodations, amenities and that "feels like home" style that allows you to enjoy the lake and the surrounding mountains and communities. Have more than 8 in your group? Ask for information regarding the private 3 BR apartment rental next door for your overflow. And ask for more information about renting the pontoon boat right at your private dock or bring your own and we will have the dock free for your tie up. And if you book a full week, the 7th night is always free.

Kedra has been a guest favorite with high reviews since our first guests arrived in 2004 but we are always working to keep it fresh and updated. It is a family home managed by the family and you feel that personal touch from booking to check-out. Your group will enjoy every season as each offers its own special delights to enjoy in the North GA mountains: peaceful views, private dock on quiet cove, spacious and lovely home with fun for all. We hope all our guests go home saying, "That was a perfect place and a great stay!"

The main level at Kedra feels like a peaceful mountain lodge. Living space is open to the dining room with seating for 14, and our heavily equipped 3-cook kitchen. The master bedroom is also located on this level and windows line the rear of the house allowing for great views. You can step onto the covered porch to pass the afternoon in a rocking chair or porch swing. Upstairs you will find two enormous bedrooms each outfitted to sleep a family, as well as a full bathroom. The lower level may be your center of activity where you can have friendly competitions in air hockey or playstation, relax by the tv, or head to the lake. Also located is 1 more bedroom, an extra room, and a full bath. The crowning feature is in the back: a gentle walk down the grassy property to a large firepit, sandbox, and 100 feet of lake front with a private dock on a quiet cove for swimming. Canoe and paddle boards are provided!

Our cabin is on a beautiful, low-traffic TVA lake and a pontoon boat is available for rental. (Please note that Lake Nottely is lowered in the winter months and during drought seasons by the TVA). The town of Blairsville is sleepy and quaint but still has plenty of shopping, restaurants, and entertainment options to suit everyone's desires and more options are just 20 minutes away in Hiawassee or Blue Ridge.

In the end, it is our previous guest's own words that say the most about our cabin: 'beautiful... thank you for the warmth and hospitality of your home... home away from home... elegant... 2 weeks was not enough... all of our needs were met by your preparations... spacious and clean... very realxing... family friendly... we will be back!'

Beautiful place to stay
This property did not disappoint. The interior of the home was very clean, but the outside sitting areas could use a good washing. The waterfront access along with the private pier and fire pit were awesome. We caught and released fish off off of the pier, as well as went swimming, etc. This is an excellent family getaway. Many other things to do only a short drive away.

Great Family Spring Break Getaway
Beautiful, large home with plenty of beds for our large family. Especially loved the huge dining table where we could all enjoy meals together. The ping pong and air hockey tables were a big hit for kids and adults. Kelly was extremely helpful. Highly recommend!

Absolutely wonderful! Very relaxing and the house has everything you need and more!
Kedra was very roomy and clean! The back deck is the perfect place to relax and have coffee in the mornings. The dock was perfect! Great for swimming, boating, and floating around on a raft. Played golf at the Butternut Creek Golf Course that was just minutes away from Kedra. Will definitely stay there again!

Return to Kedra
We stayed at this property last year and loved everything about it. Consequently, we had to return this year and it was just as wonderful. The lake is lovely, it sleeps our 12 people-6 adults and 6 under age 11 very comfortably (in fact it could easily sleep several more), and even the little things were provided for. We particularly loved having access to a canoe, paddle boards, and plenty of life jackets. We even rented the next door neighbor's pontoon boat for the day which was great fun for all. Highly, highly recommended!!

Everything was great we enjoyed ourselves. However it was very cold even after a repairman fixed the heating system. And the drive way is very steep However there is a cul-de-sac just down the road to turn around.

Perfect Floorplan and Stay
Great property and location. We had 6 adults and 8 children and plenty of room. There are two family rooms so the kids could enjoy air hockey while watching a movie in the basement with the adults playing cards and enjoying the main family on the ground level. Loved Kedra and would highly recommend it! Also, reserve ths pontoon boat next door as well. The kids loved spending time on the water, the rate on the daily pontoon boat was very reasonable and the owner was great to work with. We will definitely book again.

Great cabin for family gatherings.
Great cabin for family gatherings. We stayed at this property over the Christmas weekend and enjoyed the large spaces (living room, kitchen and downstairs rec room) for family activities. It was cold during our stay, so we enjoyed a fire around the outdoor firepit. The cabin has lots of bedrooms and provided ample sleeping space for the kids who all stayed in one of the larger bedrooms. The kitchen well equipped and was great for my wife who prepared meals and Christmas cookies. The host returned my texts immediately and was helpful when we had a minor WiFi issue. I would definitely stay at this cabin again.

Great Annual Family Vacation
We vacation with our kids & grandkids every Labor Day for an extended weekend. The house was perfect for our big group of all ages. We had a blast even tho it rained pretty much the entire weekend. Thankfully we brought lots of games & had corn hole & ping pong tournaments all weekend! Kitchen was great for a large family. Big dining room table was perfect for our group. Plenty of room to spread out as well. We’ll probably rent this property again!

Love This Home!
This was our third family vacation at Kedra on the Lake, in the woods, in the hills. For two weeks our family (eight of us) canoed, fished, swam, skipped stones on the water, went for walks and hikes, played air hockey & PlayStation, grilled burgers, enjoyed a campfire, star-gazed, sat on the balcony swing, watched deer and turkey, took naps, watched movies, and read our Bibles together as a family. We also enjoyed Brasstown Bald, Pappy's on the River, and the Sorghum Festival at Meeks Park. This house is beautiful with a great view and we're looking forward to spending even more time here.

Nice place to stay for multi family gatherings
Our extended family enjoyed our stay at Kedra. The house was clean, warm, and offered plenty of space for our group of ten. The ping pong table was a huge hit! The kids loved exploring the property and the water, even though the lake was low. And the several sitting areas, both inside and out, allowed for kids and adults plenty of space to engage in multiple activities at the same time. Unfortunately we never found pucks for the air hockey table and that was disappointing as we had looked forward to that amenity. Overall would recommend, especially in the warmer months when all the lake amenities are available.

Everything we wanted
This lakeside retreat had absolutely everything we wanted for a small family reunion. From 7-75 years old, everyone enjoyed the house and the lake. The house was comfortable and roomy and the kitchen easily handled cooking for a larger group. The double oven was especially useful. Of course the lake was the big attraction and we had a blast renting a boat and exploring, be sure to find the rope swing. Back at the house, the adults could sit on the beautiful wrap around porch and keep an eye on the kids playing down on the dock and along shoreline. Overall an excellent stay and we would definitely return. Thank you Kelly

Great for our family reunion!
Our fourth stay at Kedra was just as nice as our first stay in 2006. Except, this time our kids are grown, married and have children of their own. With 5 bedrooms, 10 beds, a pullout couch and 3 1/2 baths, it was great to be able to host the family. The kitchen is well stocked. Ping pong in the garage and air hockey in the basement. A canoe and paddleboards for the lake. Hiking in the woods. Deer, turkey, birds, and squirrels everywhere. Internet works great. Roku TVs were a nice touch. What else can I say? We had a great 2 weeks with family coming and going.

A great home in a convenient area
We spent six nights in this beautiful home. It is very well equipped and clean. The owners were very accommodating and provided everything needed. The family room and air hockey tabie were perfect for the kids. We enjoyed the fire pit and walking around the area. Two refrigerators really helped. It is well furnished and comfortable. Just remember to back down the driveway if you have rear wheel drive. The slope is a little steep and it’s gravel. We were warned before arriving. Thanks to the owners for a great place to spend a family Christmas!

Great lake getaway for fall break
Really enjoyed our stay! Everything as expected. Kids loved the lake and paddle boards. The lake was low, which we expected, but we were still able to take the boat out. Temp was 65-75 with rain, but they still got out there and went tubing. even though the neighbors are close, it was still very quiet and enjoyable. Only complaints...we did have some small black ants in the kitchen, and the water filter on the fridge did not seem to be working. The water from the fridge tasted like dirt. We had to buy a lot of bottled water/gallons of water to drink. All in all, would recommend it to anyone!
