**Knotty Pine Hideaway: Your Rustic Luxury Lakeside Adventure**

Get ready for the ultimate lakeside retreat at **Knotty Pine Hideaway**, where rustic charm meets luxurious comfort! Nestled on the beautiful shores of Lake Lanier, this three-level log home is packed with everything you need to kick back, relax, and make memories that’ll last a lifetime. With three king master suites, a game room, a gourmet kitchen, and plenty of outdoor fun, there’s something for everyone in your crew—whether you’re here for relaxation or adventure.

### Key Features:

**Water Adventures at Your Fingertips**
Looking for a boat or jet ski? We’ve got you covered! When you book, you’ll get access to our exclusive digital guidebook, packed with info on discounted pontoon boat rentals (subject to availability) and special deals for jet skis. Get ready to hit the water and soak in all that Lake Lanier has to offer!

**Rustic Luxury at Its Best**
This spacious log cabin has everything you need to feel at home, plus a little extra! With three king master suites, two full kitchens (yes, TWO), cozy living areas, and a game room that’s perfect for friendly competition, you’re in for a stay that’s as luxurious as it is fun. You’ll find plenty of spots to unwind and lots of spaces to gather, whether you’re playing games, cooking up a feast, or just chilling by the fire.

**Outdoor Fun, Always**
If you love being outside, you’re going to love it here. We’ve got a double-slip party dock, a Solo Stove firepit, and multiple grilling options (gas, charcoal, and Blackstone griddle) to keep you entertained all day and night. Whether you’re grilling up dinner or just relaxing by the fire, the outdoor vibes are unbeatable.

### Inside the Home:

**Main Floor:**
Step inside and be greeted by the cozy foyer leading into the spacious living room with a huge sectional, gas fireplace, and a smart TV—perfect for movie nights or game day. Ready to eat? The updated kitchen features double ovens, an electric cooktop, and everything you need to cook up a storm. There’s also a bar area for mixing up your favorite drinks. Just outside, the back deck offers the perfect spot for grilling and dining with a beautiful view of the lake. The main floor also features a queen bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, and a bunk room for the kids (or the kids at heart) with 2 twin beds and 2 trundle beds. A dual-entry bathroom with a tiled shower completes this level.

**Upstairs Master Suite:**
Looking for a little more luxury? Head upstairs to the master suite, where a jetted tub, an anti-fog mirror, and a private balcony with partial water views await you. There’s even a movable desk for those who can’t quite unplug during their stay (though we think you'll want to).

**Loft & Game Room:**
Across from the master suite is a cozy loft area with a kids' reading tent, books, and a poker game table—perfect for fun family nights. Downstairs, the game room steals the show with a pool table, vintage arcade games, and a second full kitchen (for all your snack storage needs). This level also has a double queen bedroom for extra guests, plus a third king bedroom with shared access to a bathroom and a shower. Step out onto the walk-out deck and relax in the fresh air.

### Outdoor Fun:

**Kayaks, Firepits & Grilling Galore**
Two kayaks are available for guests to explore the lake at their leisure (just bring your own life jackets, please!). After a day on the water, grill up a feast with our gas, charcoal, or Blackstone options, then gather around the Solo Stove firepit and relax under the stars. It’s the perfect way to cap off your day of adventure.

### Important Notes:

**Respect the Quiet:**
We love a good time, but we also love our peaceful neighbors. Please respect the quiet hours from 11 pm to 7 am.

**Pets on Furniture, Please No:**
We adore pets, but ask that they stay off the furniture and be cleaned up after.

**Water Safety:**
The dock area is at your own risk, and life jackets are required for children under 13 (they may not be available in all sizes). Please use water activities responsibly, as the water near the dock is quite deep.

**Log Home Charm:**
Knotty Pine Hideaway is a true rustic log cabin, full of personality. Expect creaky floors, unique quirks, and some “fun” marks from previous guests who may have tried their hand at darts (spoiler: not so great at it!). It’s all part of the charm, and we hope you’ll love it as much as we do.

**Additional Details:**
- **Parking:** Maximum of 4 cars in the driveway; no street parking.
- **Trash:** Please bag trash and place it in the bins by the road on Thursdays.
- **Septic System:** Please only flush toilet paper to protect the septic system.
- **No Parties:** Knotty Pine Hideaway is not a party house. Please no large parties or gatherings.

**Minimum Age:** Renters must be at least 25 years old, and the maximum occupancy is 13 guests.

After booking, you’ll receive our digital guidebook filled with more info on the house, how to book discounted boat rentals, and other important details. Be sure to check it out for the best stay experience!

We can’t wait for you to experience the magic of **Knotty Pine Hideaway**—book your lakeside adventure today!

Getaway Weekend
Property was perfect for our friends getaway! Accommodations were exactly what was advertised and we all felt more than comfortable. Boat Dock was nice, we brought our boat and Waverunner and tied up no problem. Steep walkway from lake which was our daily workout! Would stay here again!

Family Celebration
I just had a birthday and my grandson just graduated from high school so this was a get together for our family. The house was absolutely stunning and full of every possible thing that you could or need. Air-conditioning was great, beds were comfy. Lots of space for everyone! We really enjoyed the pool table and the double dock. Even though we had rain Saturday morning, we still had a blast!

Mountain paradise
We had a wonderful stay at Knotty Pines. The house is beautiful, very clean, well stocked with all cookware. The dock is large, we had some nice nights watching the otters on the river. Beds are comfortable. The fireplace was nice. We saw a few deer. Tera is very nice and responded very quickly to all my questions. We would definitely stay here again!

Enjoyable Stay for Wedding Weekend
We stayed here with friends during our wedding weekend, as our venue was in Gainesville. The house is beautiful and had plenty of space for everyone to sleep comfortably. The views are beautiful and it was the best part of the stay. All the amenities were great, of course. I would recommend this place to others.

Country lake
The property was very nice and located in a very quiet wooded area. Room situation was good for our family because the girls had an area all to themselves and so did the boys. It was nice to step out onto the porch in the morning and have deer visiting. Access to the dock was a little challenging and that information was fully explained. Life jackets of all sizes were provided so it wasn't difficult for everyone to have one that fit. Overall it was a great time.
