Lakefront cottage on rustic setting in cove

This is my beautiful home on Lake Oconee. The 0.6 acre wooded lot magnifies the great outdoors surrounding this 2 bedroom, 2 bath retreat from the world. Tucked away in a private cove it features a big water view just right around the point from Sugar Creek Marina. Relax by the fire pit on the hill or take off from your dock to enjoy the great water of Lake Oconee. Canoe available or dock your own boat. Electricity available on the dock. You will be surrounded by nature and woods. Three friendly outdoor neighborhood cats may come to visit. Your own pet is also welcome. The open floor plan has the great room attached to the kitchen filled with new appliances and plenty of cabinet space. Beyond the great room is an outdoor porch with ceiling and open deck overlooking the water. Bathe leisurely in the antique claw foot tub upstairs or choose the downstairs shower. Two bedrooms sleep four and you can climb the ladder to the bonus room to sleep two more. TVs with Roku are ready to watch in the living room and queen bedroom. Fire TV in the full bedroom. Get ready to spend your time on the lake!

Nice Getaway
We had a guys fishing trip and this was perfect! The extra little touches throughout the cottage were great! Snacks, water, detergent to name a few. We really enjoyed hanging out on the back porch! The boat dock was excellent as well- we were able to charge our batteries on the boat while we relaxed! Planning our trip again for next year!!

Relaxing lake view.
The location was amazing! Owner was awesome and the home had lots of nice touches: snacks, waters and coffee/creamer. The home was super cool set up but does need some upgrades. It was clean and very comfortable.

Lovely Lake Oconee Getaway
Very cute house on Lake Oconee! Was in town for a wedding in Greensboro which was about 20-25 minutes away, very easy drive. We loved being directly on the lake and having access to it, great views and very nice porch setup. The cats were on the porch most of the time we were there and were very sweet and friendly. A lot of very nice, small unexpected touches, such as having S'mores items available which we took advantage of with the fire pit, and water bottles and snacks also available. The owner was also very friendly and responsive, responded very quickly to all my messages, and worked with me for an early check in which was needed due to the wedding time, as well as when we needed to stop back by after checking out because we accidentally left something. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a little getaway on the lake!

Perfect little spot for a weekend
We drove up from Florida for a game weekend and instead of dealing with crowds or Atlanta, we picked this spot and it was perfect! Just me and my two boys. We loved the lake and the cats. Beautiful view and the area off the dock was safe for the kids to play and swim. House was immaculately clean. We will be back!

Wonderful time
As in past stays every thing was wonderful. The place was thoughtfully equipped to make our stay enjoyable. She continues to update the home. We had no problem in docking our boat. We hope to return.

A Great Place to Stay for a Week
I booked this property for a week while my home was being remodeled. Karen's home was perfect. It's situated on a very private, quiet cove right on the water. The decor and accommodations are excellent. I felt right at home as soon as I stepped through the doorway. The home has everything one would need for a getaway weekend or vacation. I would definitely book this property again and will recommend it to friends and family when they come to visit. Thank you Karen!
