The lake is a popular place for fishing, boating, jet skiing, canoeing, kayaking and swimming.

If you like cycling, you will enjoy exploring the area's gently rolling hills and fragrant pine forests. If you're feeling a little more adventurous, the Oconee National Forest, with miles of mountain biking and hiking trails, is just a short distance away.

Also within easy driving distance is Madison, “”the prettiest small town in America””, where you can wander the streets and admire the stately old houses in Georgia's oldest and largest National Historic District.

We enjoyed our stay. First impression upon arrival was it was very cozy and quaint. A couple of things noticed: towels smelled sour, cigarette burn holes on downstairs bedroom sheets. Otherwise, it was very nice.

Very clean, simple, and adorable cabin. Great views of the river and lots of amenities that come with the place. Located in a small town (closest store is a dollar general and abt a 20 min drive to get to a grocery store + be aware of lots of steep hills/no street lights) We absolutely loved the fire pit, open kitchen concept, and family area. Wifi was spotty at times but we are on vacation so it was great to disconnect a bit! TV came with multiple platforms to watch movies/shows. Kitchen was stocked as well. Beds were very comfy and there is the perfect amount of space. Pet friendly and accessible! Def booking again!

We loved at the cabin! The bed was extremely comfortable. The view is beautiful. Unfortunately, there were no kayaks. We ended up landlocked and not able to get in the water. This was very disappointing, and our email inquiry as to the kayak situation went unanswered. We Saw several deer, and our neighbors were very friendly. We will definitely come back again.

The property was pleasantly a surprise, the pictures do not do it justice. There were a few things that need attention, we were told to take the sheets off and leave on the bed and when I did the mattress pad did have bloody spots which was a surprise and not a healthy situation, also the thermostat must have been programmed and if we turned the ac up it would re adjust itself to 65 which was really cold to us, and we were never able to have wi-fi it was not what happy stays said, it was no big deal to not have wi-fi but it probably could be to some people. We really liked our stay. Thank you

This was a much needed mental and physical break for myself and husband along with our son and my elderly mom. The location on the water is beautiful and the dock is excellent. The fishing is also really good in the location just fishing off of the dock. The home needs quite a bit of updating. We had no remote and no way to watch the TV in the livingroom. The upstairs bedroom TV was also without any kind of remote. The only TV that worked was in the downstairs bedroom. The hot water heater was somehow messed up. The water in the only shower was incredibly difficult to regulate. It would be scalding hot one second and with the tiniest correction in the other direction it would be freezing. This made for difficult and quick showers, for sure. The wifi would not work at all. The PIN we were provided didn’t work and when i inquired about it to the management they couldn’t find out any further information to correct the issue. There was a very limited amount of cooking utensils and pots and pans. One of the shelves inside the cabinet had collapsed . The house really just needs some updating and some attention.

This was our 3rd time staying at this cabin in the last year. My husband has family close by, so we love renting this cabin. It’s sound a beautiful area and it’s nice and peaceful. If you have our own boat you want to bring you can use long shoal boat ramp which is just a mile or 2 away. Super convent.

We booked this property a day in advance and were pleasantly surprised about the location of this property and also the comfort and interior upgrades of the cabin. The cabin is located on the water with a dock, where you can fish, pull up a boat, or use their kayaks. We ended up renting a speedboat from one of the local rental facilities, and it was very easy to drive the boat down the lake to our dock to provide convenient access to the lake and the boat. The home is technically a two bedroom, one and a half bath home, but they have made a good use of space by including appropriately sized furniture, open concept, living, and adding beds and bunks into bonus areas. The home is probably too small to host two families comfortably, but worked perfect for our family of five. My only complaint would be that we had a couple questions and left messages for the rental company but they never got back to us. Luckily we w were able to navigate. The issues are cells, and it did not cause too much of a problem. We will definitely be back!
