About this cottage rental

Quiet cottage on Lake Lanier is perfect for a quick getaway. Located on the north side of the lake in the Chestatee area this home has plenty of amenities to enjoy what the lake has to offer. The house sits about 50 feet from the water's edge. If you prefer to be on the water you can enjoy the setting sun on a two level party dock. A professionally built fire pit is ideal for those cooler evenings overlooking the lake. The cottage itself was remodeled and includes granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances. A comfortable living room seats at least 6 and and includes leather furniture and 55" flat screen TV. Off the living areas is a large vaulted screen porch that overlooks the water. It can be cooled by the ceiling fan or heated by the propane gas heater.

The two level dock has plenty of space to relax and enjoy the beautiful sunsets and is a short walk from the house. The upper level includes a 10ft x 20ft covered area for shade. The slip on the dock is in use but feel free to tie up your boat if need be.

My family spent our week long summer vacation here and had an amazing time! The house was great, it had everything we needed and plenty of room and the screened in porch was great for enjoying the evenings. We spent hours down at the dock enjoying the cove. It was quiet and calm, the water was clean and clear and perfect for jumping in, swimming, floating and watching the sunset in the evenings. We felt miles away from everything but in reality, groceries, shopping and restaurants were only 10 minutes down the road and downtown Atlanta was only an hour. Communication with Jim was excellent! We definitely recommend this property!

Overall, we have really enjoyed our stay as the home is beautiful, the view is amazing, and the outside updates are notable. The location states Gainesville, however the home is about 15 minutes northwest of Gainesville which made everything feel further away than we had planned. The living room of the house was nice and the furniture very comfortable. The kitchen had a lot of room but the pots and pans were old and some left unclean. We rented knowing that this was a pet free home but that may not have always been the case as there is notable pet hair under the beds/on the mattresses and on the comforters. Taking allergy meds helped but this was a concern for a family with allergies. I will say that the owner was a great communicator and offered to change the linens and sweep however that would not have helped. We were overall pleased with our stay but these are items that others should be aware of.

We loved sitting on the huge back porch/sunroom to relax. This home is newly renovated and so cute. The owner let us dock our boat next to his at the house for convenience. Our stay was short but very relaxing. Love the north side of the lake.

Best time ever

Best time ever

This place was perfect,my to girls ages 6 and 9 can't wait to go back! We swam, played on the paddle boats and did a lot of fishing! My 9 year old caught 22 fish while there, mostly sunfish and catfish! I hooked a huge gar but lost him at the dock. Jim was great and quick to get back to answer any questions I had. Overall great experience! Thank you Jim!

This is our second time at Jim’s Lakehouse. We were so excited to return! It was just what we needed as a family. All electronics stayed in the house throughout the day while we enjoyed and made wonderful memories down on the lake. We tied up our floats and floated in our quiet little Cove area while the kids enjoyed jumping from the top deck into the deep water. Drinks, music and water..what else could you ask for!! In the evening time we played family games out on the back screened in porch. Our youngest was out on the dock every evening fishing. He caught an alligator gar and several bass. My husband took me on a date night in downtown Gainesville. They have a cute little downtown Square and park with a bunch of great restaurants surrounding the circle. We had wine and apps at Cork It, very romantic. We did make a point to stay at the house at least every other day to enjoy the wonderful amenities. On the other days we checked out the nearby outlet mall , rented a boat from Paradise Rentals for the day and our favorite adventure was white water rafting on the Ocoee River! Def recommend Ocoee Rafting!! The House is in the perfect location. Plenty of room...and the couch...Holy cow the most comfortable couch EVER! We took several afternoon naps on this heavenly piece of furniture. If you are looking to get back to family time and to just relax and clear your mind and enjoy nature I definitely recommend this house!

We will definitely be back to this place again. Our children had the best time at the lake house. Great spot on the north end. The water was deep enough to jump off the top deck. We enjoyed the paddle boat and kayaks. Lots of activities near by!!! Ty

It is a nice place to unwind. Quite and relaxing. A beautiful place by the lake, waiting for the sunset by the dock and then having a bonfire after. I would love to go back again. The owner Jim even checked on us to see if we need anything.

A great place right on the water with easy views from porch to dock thats in a very small cove with no boat traffic (kids can swim freely without someone on boat patrol.) Spacious kitchen and family room. Bedrooms and bathrooms are somewhat small and plain but the screened porch, outdoor porch or lake is where it's all at anyway! Very helpful and responsive owner.

Absolutely Amazing

Absolutely Amazing

My family of 4 stayed here for about a month, during the pandemic, while we were in between houses. It was the perfect place for us! There were 4 bedrooms which gave us all private space while adults worked from home and kids home-schooled. We definitely stress tested the wi-fi and it was outstanding! The home is lived in, meaning it has every potential gadget and comfort of home. You can literally show up with clothes and groceries and your vacation is ready to roll! There is everything in the kitchen you could need, plenty of linens and water toys, fishing poles, grill, games, etc. The dock is an amazing place to hang out and watch the lake activity and sunsets! We had many camp fires in the beautiful fire pit! The TV's were superior quality as well! The house is in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood and the owner was amazing to deal with! We really enjoyed our time at the home and look forward to returning soon. Highly recommend - can't say enough!!!

We had a great time at this home. It does need lots of maintenance though in the home and the dock. The beds are old and sink in the middle. Some more and newer kitchen/cooking supplies would be helpful, it was difficult to cook and prep food.
