You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Southern Living Lake Oconee Home in a Cove!

Begin your lake days sipping a hot cup of coffee on the spacious deck overlooking Lake Oconee and its beautiful backdrop of green trees. Stroll down the deck and across the grassy yard where you find 2 extra large Adirondack-style chairs and fire pit before you reach the dock. At your private dock, where you can tie up your boat. If you don’t have a boat, 2 adult kayaks are included for a day out on the lake!

After your water adventures, make your way back up to the cottage featuring central air conditioning to help beat the Georgia heat. Make yourself at home on the comfortable couches in the living area and turn on the smart flatscreen TV to find a good show to watch.

As soon as you walk in the door, the wide open floor plan in the main living space makes it easy to maneuver around the 1,700-square-foot high ceiling cottage. Easily step from the couch to the kitchen, a complete breakfast bar with bar stools, brand-new stainless steel appliances, a fully equipped with all of the necessary cookware. Prepare delectable meals and serve them to the group at the dining table adjacent to the kitchen.

If you prefer to dine al fresco, head out onto the deck with ample outdoor seating and lake views. For dessert, roast marshmallows around the fire pit in the yard.

Before calling it a night, have a movie night. If you’re still wide awake, challenge your travel companions to a Nintendo Switch Smash Bros Ultimate game, board games, cards or foosball in the game room!

Once each exciting day comes to an end, you’ll rest easy in any of the plush memory foam beds in the inviting bedrooms.

This is a quiet neighborhood and in respect for our neighbors, we DO NOT allow parties on the premises, FIREWORKS and 9:30PM QUIET time need to be observed. We’re all for a good time, but only registered guests are allowed.

There is also a strict no pet policy. If evidence of a pet is found, guests are subject to a $250 fine.

Guests will find a peaceful oasis in this prime location while still benefitting from an abundance of nearby amenities. Fishing gear and supplies and a public boat rumps nearby. Extremely convenient to Atlanta/Augusta I-20 and you can find fantastic shopping, dining, and entertainment 10 minutes away, or spend the day delighting in southern hospitality in the town of Greensboro and Eatonton.

Staff gathering for a small business
We had our staff gathering for our small business (3-4 employees only) in this property for the weekend. It was the perfect place! We gathered around the fire pit to share stories at night and grilled bbq during the day. Access to the lake came in handy. We rented out a pontoon. This property is very clean. All necessities were provided. It was also very close to grocery stores and shops. Host responded within a few minutes and even checked in on us by text when we arrived. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this property for families and friends.

Very disappointing weekend- Lots of attention needed!
Very excited about the trip to only be disappointed by the property. 1. The curb appeal was awful: Crate Myrtles have overtaken the front of the house and entry into house and to the backyard (needs to be trimmed back greatly); Algae on siding and back of the house; Cobb webs everywhere outside (Chairs, table, all over ceiling); String of light do not work (only 4 light bulbs worked). The outside white couch on the dock has mold and mildew on it. It needs to be thrown out. 2. Inside the home needed much attention: Chairs at the dining room table were dry rotted. Bugs were all on table and floor. Sofa was dirty with stains and dust. In light of Covid, furniture should probably be non-porous (leather like) as opposed to cloth. Walls were marked up bad and needs to be painted and touched up. Bathroom had hair in the tub and sink with several bugs left visible. Bedroom sheets upstairs had bleach stains on it. 3. Please let people know that the phone signal is very very weak. There is a lot of potential for this property. But what I experienced this past weekend was very disappointing. It’s like someone forgot we were coming.
