Wonderful Vacation Home
Our large, extended family had plenty of room and so much to do with all of the extra amenities offered. The eleven children ages 2 to 12 were never bored. The lake is lovely and we really enjoyed renting the pontoon boat. The hosts are friendly and helpful.

Great for a family gathering
All of my siblings and their families got together for a long weekend at the lake. The house had everything we needed for kids and family fun, and the way the house is set up, it made it perfect so that each family had their own little area of bedrooms. Really great fun.

Perfect property for our fall retreat.
The house and grounds were the perfect fit for our annual family and friends fall retreat. There was ample space for everyone and tons to do that fit the diversity of ages. The house was clean and the owner was very accommodating for anything we need pr wanted to do. The tweens in our group had a blast and never got bored, while the adults had various spaces to mingle and relax.

Owner was nice ,but place was a construction zone outside many of the amenities listed were not there or were unavailable for use . Owner had an issue with the pool and was there daily working on it , also the house was outdated and needed much work on the inside with plumbing issues and mold in the bathroom ceiling. The property was not ready for rental use

Perfection in Paradise!
One of the cleanest properties we've rented! We loved having multiple, well stocked kitchens. The back yard, outdoor pavilion, and dock were all absolutely wonderful places to hang out for everyone in our family {ages 1 to 75}. Thanks for a magical place to spend our week with extended family!

Beautiful Fall Weekend in the North GA Mountains
This property is fantastic for large groups. Conveniently located to Hiawassee, we really enjoyed our stay. You are roughly 30 minutes from Helen and 30 minutes from excellent hiking options along the start of the Appalachian Trail. The house is so spacious and thoughtfully decorated. We enjoyed grilling, fishing, and all of the games in the house. Would definitely recommend to friends and stay here again.

Excellent retreat
The property exceeded all expectations. We had rooms for everyone and the gathering places around the home were perfect for a large group. The game room was so much fun for team building. We were able to use the firepit outside and the grill. Such a great time. The owner was awesome with the communications.

Cabin week
We had our annual family reunion and this house is awsome. There is plenty of space and beautiful back yard with a waterfall. The firepit and horse shoe pit were a big hit. The dock was big enough for several of us to bring our beach chairs and still have room to walk around. Loved it!

A Big Family must
We had the pleasure of staying at this amazing Lakehouse right before Thanksgiving, and the house was perfect! Plenty of activities for a large family, from hiking to putt-putt, and a great golden tee setup. The house was very clean and had everything needed. We have already recommended it to a few close friends and looking forward to the next visit. Priscilla, thank you for all your help before and during the stay.
