Hygge House on Lanier - the ULTIMATE lake cabin - dock, arcade, hottub, & grills

The Hygge House was established to create an intimate, relaxing, modern space with state-of-the-art (and completely private) smart-home technology, lighting, Sonos audio, and comfort features.

The completely renovated lake cabin offers a unique experience integrating classic A-frame architecture with modern design and technology in a sublime and peaceful lake setting.

Nestled on the quiet and calm north end of Lake Lanier, less than 1 hour north of Atlanta, the Hygge House resides in a very private cove with sweeping lake views and offers a short walk to the dock and water.

The home is 2,300 sq ft and has 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths - a perfect size for both couples as well as small groups up to 8.

As you enter the home, a fully equipped and stocked kitchen awaits you, with all stainless steel appliances, including a convection oven, microwave, 4 burner gas cooktop, refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, coffee station, and Chick-Fil-A ice machine.

The kitchen includes top-of-the-line Quartz countertops and a automatic on/off Kohler Prolific workstation chef's sink with plenty of entertaining and prep space.

The living space surrounding the kitchen includes dining for up to 8, a modern fireplace and ample seating with long-range views of the lake, the surrounding woods, and unbelievably gorgeous sunsets throughout the year.

The home also comes with a dedicated office area with dual computer monitors and high-end webcam for any work or video calls you might need to do while here.

The cozy all-season screened-in porch offers an outdoor living space and has two sofas, two chairs, a Zen wall, a large industrial remote-controlled fan, and a built-in 6000 watt infrared Bromic heater.

The Primary room features a king-sized bed with a Nectar mattress and top-of-the-line DeWoolfson down comforter, amazing lake views with a floor-to-ceiling glass wall, an Eames lounge chair, and a one-of-one, custom-made "Sherman Oak" headboard.

The headboard was hand-crafted from one of the few remaining oak trees that survived when General Sherman burned down Atlanta during the Civil War. It was sadly hit by lightning in 2019, but was able to be given new life as an amazing art piece and historical remnant.

The Primary room's expansive bath features heated floors, dual vanities, an automatic urinal, a “smart toilet” with built in bidet, and a spacious shower area with multiple shower heads for a soothing and spa-like shower experience.

Downstairs on the terrace level you'll find two spacious rooms, each with spectacular lake views.

The "2nd Primary" offers a floating king bed with a DreamCloud mattress and Dewollfson down comforter, Sonos Move, built-in closet, blackout curtains, and individually controlled bedside wall sconces for each guest's comfort and convenience.

The bunk room isn't just for the kids as it comes equipped with a custom-made bunk bed with a high-end Nectar queen mattress on the bottom and twin XL up top.

Additionally, the room features a 65'' Samsung SmartTV w/ a Sonos Arc, a custom-made Arcade system with over 3,000 classic video games, and has plenty of room for games, yoga, or lounging around on the oversized Lovesac.

The back deck has a dining table for 6 and a custom-made, built-in grill table with a Blackstone griddle and a Kamodo Joe grill, with charcoal, gas, and all grilling tools provided.

The home features a brand new boathouse - the largest allowed on Lake Lanier - and comes with paddleboards, kayaks, floats, life vests, a swim platform and ladder, and other essential lake toys.

The cove is also fantastic for fishing - even right from the dock - and we provide 2 rod-and-reels for guests to use!

The dock is a great place to tie up a boat during your stay - with the boat launch only 5 minutes away and trailer parking at the top of the driveway, it couldn't be easier.

Don't have a boat, but want to rent one? No problem! We have a boat rental service with fantastic rates and you can even keep the boat at the dock during your stay!

We also offer chartered boat captain services as well for those that want to focus on just having fun with friends and family.

Throughout the property are amenities galore, including:

- Fully custom grill area on the back porch that includes a Blackstone griddle and a large Kamodo Joe

- Sonos surround sound system throughout the house

- "Chick-fil-A" ice machine

- ZENKO Fusion Japanese-steel kitchen knives

- 3 Samsung Smart TVs, including an incredible 75" Samsung Q9 in the living room, that include Rokus and come with the most popular apps such as Netflix, Prime Video, ESPN, Hulu, Youtube, etc

- Gorgeous modern fireplace with various heating modes to ensure everyone stays warm and comfortable

Beautiful home with everything you need
My family and I wanted a chill weekend on the lake and this place was perfect. The place itself is comfortable and beautiful with a perfect view of the lake and sunset every evening. There are records and games and access to streaming services. We had so much fun with both kayaks and paddle boards and were able to spend so much time on the lake. This place is a gem.

Super nice property and manager
Usually there's a little disappointment when you arrive at a rental, because they rarely live up to how they're advertised, but this property was surprisingly amazing even though the ad and pictures made it look amazing, so you really get what you pay for. Plus the manager was super responsive and helpful. It's rare to find a rental with such thoughtful amenities and stylish decor. Go for it!

Truly a 5 star property
This property has it all: unbelievable location on the lake and unbeatable views, top notch furnishings and appliances, all the lake toys, and most importantly, a great host who goes above and beyond to create a special experience for guests. I have stayed at dozens of vacation properties (and I only stay at the best ones) and I think this may be the only one that I would truly say is a 5 star property! Thanks Lee. We will be back!

Family Lake Vacation
The Hygge House is just as described and shown in the pictures. It is a gorgeous house in a beautiful location with a great dock that is much closer to the water than many properties. The house was very clean. Lee was always available to answer any questions or address any concerns. We rented a boat and were able to easily dock it there, as well as use the kayaks and paddleboards. We had a great time and would look forward to returning.

Great Property and Excellent Host
This is the best rental house and experience I have ever had. The house is extremely modern and very clean. It has an exceptional lake view. We rented a boat for the week and also enjoyed Lee's kayaks and paddleboards. The three bedrooms are all very nice - and the upstairs Master has a great Master Bathroom. Lee is a great host. Very responsive and helpful. He answered every question very quickly and made sure we had a great stay. You won't be disappointed in this property and host!!

Fathers and sons Hygge on the Lake
We rented Hygge House for a boys trip with two dads and their sons looking for a chill relaxing weekend...and that is what we got. This house can accommodate a small group with it's 3 bedrooms, with 6 to 8 guests being the sweet spot. First thing, Lee was a great host, communicating with us from the beginning and through our stay he was there to answer any questions we had. The house is at a great location, I enjoyed the drive to get there. The last street is little more than a one lane road with so much character, I enjoyed that ride. There are enough things to do inside and outside of the house that kept everyone entertained. Lee has a great process going which will make everything from checking in to turning off the lights, seamless. There were 3 bedrooms 20 down and 1 up. One of the down room has a bunk bed, with carpet and enough space for the boys to lounge around. The other two bedrooms are well done with the top bedroom being an experience. We had no concerns about this place and appreciate that they had more than enough supplies to use throughout our stay. the boat dock and the deck was the best to wake up in the morning, have coffee, and see the fog rise off the lake. The fire pit was a hit and where we spent our nights. We had to learn how to clean a Green Egg grill, but that was not an issue at all. can't forget the hot tub, which doubles as a great picture taking area. The Hygge House was a great stay for father and son trips with friends. There is enough to do, both inside and out, great host, enough supplies, and great calm and quiet nature. We hope to return soon.
