We've stayed at Hilton Head before but wanted to find something closer. We searched forever to find a location that had both a stunning water view and an impeccable interior. We took a chance on this house and it exceeded our expectations. The property is beautifully decorated with delightful art. It is also immaculate - I have ridiculous cleaning standards and this is the first time I've stayed at a place that met them. The property is very well stocked, with a good supply of utensils, dishes, cooking pans, coffee makers, and more. The host thought of all the little touches that make for a great experience, from makeup towels in the bathrooms to a hand-written welcome note. The driveway to the house is a perfect place to go on walks (very private and long enough to get in a great workout). We loved the patio / pool space, particularly the grill and tv area. The upstairs tv loft with the pool table was also a hit. The host had plenty of beach towels for the pool which was a welcome surprise. All the appliances were great, from the washer and dryer to the dishwasher, and the oven. We found that we could get a fast Instacart delivery from Publix for all of our food supplies (or it's just up the road if you like to drive). We were pleasantly surprised by how quiet the location is - we didn't hear another person around for the entirety of our stay. We really can't say enough good things about the property, location, or host, other than that we'll definitely be back!

We had had best time here. The house was beautiful and exactly as shown in listing.

We loved the property and the views. Has everything you need, in a great location so close to everything you really needand etc. Great location, beautiful views and everything was so new and clean. These accommodations took our trip to the Masters Golf tourney over the top!!!

My family booked this property in order to relax for a few days prior to heading into Atlanta for a college football playoff game. My wife has the highest standards imaginable for accommodations and a keen eye for design. This home checked all the boxes! She even said there wasn’t anything she would change about it. This was a time our family grew closer together and enjoyed meaningful conversations around the fire pit and the multiple spaces around the property. There was a minor issue getting one of the fireplaces to light, and Keeli was extremely attentive and helpful to resolve the issue that same morning. The family room upstairs, with a pool table, was one of our favorite spaces. The fireplaces on both levels added a nice touch of ambience and heat! Our daughter, home from college, thoroughly enjoyed reading out on the private dock. Being within a 10 minute drive to the Reynolds Ritz-Carlton, is an added bonus. I resoundingly review and highly suggest this property for anyone looking to make memories in a resort-like private escape in a beautiful part of our country. My wife is a Buckeye fan, but I am a Bulldog, which means the New Year’s Eve victory was icing on the cake of a fantastic trip!

Thank you for a Beautiful Christmas with family. We enjoy the clean, home with everything we needed. The owners were very responsive and it was a pleasure to rent from them, they made everything easy. The house was comfortable for everyone had lots of space and we loved the fire pit by the pool. Can’t wait to come back. We loved this place. I recommend this rental anytime!

This is everything we wanted and then some. Just perfect! Couldn't have asked for more! The Host was also very hospitable and attentive! I highly recommend this property and Host!

This house was perfect for our two families. It is a gorgeous home with plenty of room for everyone. The outdoor area is great - you can watch tv from the pool and the couches on the back patio were the perfect place for morning coffee and afternoon naps. We also really liked the fact that this part of the lake is shallow, so it was nice and quiet. The owners were very responsive and easy to work with. Would definitely stay again.

This is a great property on the lake. Has everything you could want. We will be back soon!

Loved this property so much! Everything you could ask for and more. We were there for a family getaway and had such a great time. Brand new everything / spacious / amazing pool. Just fantastic. And Kerri could not have been better to work with. We rented a boat for the week and I would agree with the listing comment to make sure you have a motor that can trim up and down due to shallow water. But it’s very manageable and worked out perfectly. We would absolutely recommend!!!

This is a beautiful new home. It is remarkably clean , which we loved, and has everything you need for a comfortable and memorable lake house vacation: spacious rooms, open layout, great pool, a flat backyard for the kids to play, and a dock. Kerri was a great, kind, and conscientious host. This is a great property and property owner! You won't be disappointed.

I fell in love with the listing when I saw it on VRBO and I have to say, the real house was even better! It is a beautiful, brand new home, with every detail considered. All of the conveniences for a rental property are there, and it was a very easy check in/check out process. The location is exceptional - convenient to everything. You do have to go under a few low bridges on the lake to reach the house, so it wouldn’t work with a tall boat, but it worked just fine with the pontoon boat that we rented, so long as we put the shade down. It is in a beautiful cove… The most picturesque setting you can imagine. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Loved the house and location! The pool area and covered patio were outstanding for large families!

We loved our stay in the Goose Nest Cottage. It is a beautiful new house with an amazing back patio/pool for kids. We will definitely be back.

The property is new and very nice. The pool and the dock by the lake are wonderful. The pool table is a nice touch. It could use a few more basics (which may accumulate over time), like facial tissues and a grill cleaning brush.

We rented this house for a short girls trip and it was amazing! The house was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool in the backyard as well as the dock. We rented kayaks and a boat, both which were able to be dropped off/picked up at the dock behind the house. Also, Kerri was very helpful and quick to respond to all our questions! We will definitely be back!!

Goose Nest Cottage at Lake Oconee is a stunning property! It is in a great location, and the cottage host, Kerri, is fantastic! She was always available to answer questions or to make suggestions based on our needs. The cottage is beautifully furnished and filled with all the amenities a guest would need. Restaurants, Shops, and Groceries are just a few miles away. I highly recommend this property and host to anyone looking for a beautiful property to stay at on Lake Oconee. We cannot wait to be able to enjoy this property again!

The property is amazing, very well kept (clean, wonderful amenities), and close to a lot of restaurants and stores in the lake community. The property manager/contact was extremely responsive and went out of her way to ensure we had a great stay. Even the small details were very nice touches (fully stocked firewood, cleaning supplies, all kitchen utensils, etc.).

We really enjoyed our weekend stay at the Goose Nest Cottage. The house was beautiful, perfectly decorated, and the pool over looking the lake was breathtaking. The host was so sweet and incredibly easy to work with! I Would most certainly recommend staying here to anyone! Thank you for a fun getaway!

We couldn’t have asked for more! Literally everything was perfect! If we needed it, it was on site. My mission was not to have to leave the cottage for anything. Needless to say, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Miss Kerri made sure we were good and she was very prompt on her communication with me. She’s the best hostess ever. We arrived back home and started planning our Thanksgiving trip BACK AT GOOSE NEST COTTAGE!!!

Very Nice
