Outstanding(30 Reviews)4.6
Our family enjoyed this beautiful and cozy home. The location, décor and game room were all big hits with our family.
4.6
There is a review about the water being too low so it was difficult for a jet ski, however, it was perfect depth for our kids!!! We had a blast!
4.6
We loved the simplicity and cleanliness of the house. The hot tub and garage made for wonderful spaces to spend our time. There is no ladder on the dock to get in and out so don’t expect to swim from the dock without cutting up your legs to get out. This home was very clean and well kept.
4.6
At first glance the ranch style home is inviting with an obvious “lake” theme. Nicely located in a side cove, the dock is short and does not extend past the muck/mud and does not have a ladder to climb back up if you choose to swim in or float on the lake from the dock. Docking a boat, shallow. The hot tub was lovely and comfortable for 4 adults.
We cook and found the kitchen to have good appliances but was lacking in serving bowls, silverware needs to be updated (no grown up forks or serving spoons), some of the skillets just need to be thrown out and bring your own sharpened knives if you plan on cooking. Only 2 trash bags are provided and when we arrived, the outside trash bin was full until trash pick up on Tuesday. The grill needs to be replaced as the bottom it is very rusted as are the burner covers and flame up hazardously.
The bathrooms are good sized but bring your own toiletries as 1-1 oz shampoo and cream rinse for each bathroom with 4 people lasts 2 showers. Each bathroom was stocked with a set of towels (2 bath, 3 hand, 3 wash cloths) and a floor mat but only 2 rolls of TP. No beach towels are available, bring your own.
The main bedroom was spacious with a dresser and large closet. Sadly, none of the mattresses in any of the bedrooms were comfortable. Neither of the two non-main bedrooms had dresser storage. Caution with the sunken living room, the BIG step down can be a trip/step down hazard for short, children, or physically impaired people.

The house was not a house, it was a home. From the jacuzzi to the potato peeler, it had everything you need and then some. Comfy beds, boat dock and the coffee bar was my favorite. Hope to visit again real soon!
4.6
It's a beautiful house, and it has great access to the lake with a dock for your boat (in season). The game room/garage was very popular, and the hot tub was hot and ready.
A few negatives:
Internet was horrible when we first arrived. We had no working internet for the 1st half of our 4 night stay. The management tried to help, but bless their hearts, they're not IT. Between my bro-in-law and myself, we got it working "good" (not great). Evidence suggested that it is a bad CAT 5 cord, or bad port on a router. The wifi needs a serious, and much simpler, hardware upgrade. Some form of restitution should have been offered as it compromised school work, and business for some of the guests.
2) The road that gives access to the house is different from the street address, and was confusing/hard to find. It's also in a state of disrepair, but perhaps that's a city council issue.
3) The cleanliness of the property was compromised by pet hair. Strange as it is not a pet-friendly rental. The cleaning crew needs to pay more attention to corners, and under furniture, as pet hair would find it's way out from those areas. There was also lots of pet hair on the 2 chairs in the living room. They would "shed" on our clothes. There was also pet droppings littered across the lawn. One of the guests stepped in some, and it was a nuisance. Not sure how this happened, but please look into it.
I might stay here again, because it was a nice house w/great lake access. Just a lot to consider.

House had everything we needed and kept the kids entertained. Everything is very up to date inside. Super quiet spot - we had the lake to ourselves.

Living room and large windows with great view

Game room was fun. Bed were nice. Lots of blankets.
I requested they add pencils.

This house was clean, comfortable, and homey. It was the perfect stay for our out of state weekend wedding. Their attention to detail was a plus, whether it be hand soap, shampoo or dish detergent. They had us covered. While we did not have time to use the hot tub, it looked like new and well kept. The garage game room was perfect for a little fun time to kill. Last but not least, the check in and out process was simple!
4.6
House was decorated beautifully. Enjoyed the hot tub. The huge windows in front were perfect for watching the geese on the lake.

This home has been totally renovated. From the hardwood floors to the bathrooms to the beautiful kitchen. The view of the lake is spatactular from the many oversized windows. The sunrise over the lake is spectacular. Brand new appliances and professionally decorated. The beds and linens were better than home. We have already ordered the fabulous pillows they have. Worth every penny!

Property was pristine and well appointed. Pleasure to stay there.

The home itself was beautiful, clean and comfy. There are a few things that should be noted though. We brought our jet skis up for the weekend and at full pool water level the dock is in such shallow water you basically have to stand in the muck to tie off, etc. and there is no swimming right around the dock. It would be WONDERFUL if the dock were extended to a usable depth. One plus is that there is a ramp right around the corner though. Also I think due to recent rains the garage with the “extras” was full of standing water the entire stay rendering the other amenities difficult to use because of the standing water and the grass in the front yard was tall and hadn’t been cut in some time. I think this was also due to recent weather. The corn hole boards were covered in mold and most of the darts are broken so those both could be replaced. Lastly, the vacuum didn’t work either.
The home itself is beautiful and comfy though with a great view. It just didn’t provide the usability we were looking for.

We loved this house! We stay at 4-5 rentals around the U.S. per year and this was the nicest place we have ever stayed. It had everything we needed, it was clean and decorated so cutely. The game room and dock are a bonus for this place. There is a cooler and a couple of folding chairs in the game room area. I have never seen a cleaner hot tub!!! There were two areas to sit outside. The dock was great it is shallow but we got our boat in and out without any problems. Can't wait to come back.

We loved staying here. I only wished the description of "private beach" would be removed.

Loved this rental. We thought it was actually our favorite of all of our rentals over the years. The decor is so cute, high end furnishings, TVs, and appliances. We wish the access to the water was better, but there are nearby options so not a huge deal.
4.6
Recently renovated property that is just as it appears in the pictures. Clean, cheerful, and well situated to take advantage of Clay County Beach, Splash Island, area restaurants, etc. The dock is short and shallow, though, compared to neighbors’, so depending on water levels, don’t bank on being able to jump off of it (bring water shoes to wade out through the mud). The kitchen is well stocked but there are no “toys / extras” at the house aside from board games, so… here’s a list of a few things we wish we’d brought — folding beach or camp chairs, meat thermometer, small cooler, fire starting equipment, and floats or pool noodles.

Wonderful Stay on Lake Chatuge
The home was spotless, and cozy. You are able to walk right down to the lake and fish off the private dock. The huge window in the living room looks out at the the lake and you can watch the fish jump.
The home was beautifully decorated with everything you need to enjoy a relaxing vacation. Close to Brasstown Bald and plenty of dining options within 10 minutes to the home. Will definitely be back, we had a wonderful stay.
