A Slice of Lake Heaven
Wonderful lake property for those who want a quiet getaway to fish, kayak or just relax. Athens is a short drive for groceries, gas, restaurants. We noticed how the property is very dog-friendly and will tell our friends who have dogs that they should definitely go and take their fur-babies along as there is a nice, large grassy fenced-in area for dogs to roam as well as a cemented patio at the front entrance which is gated, fenced, and protected from the western sun. Very comfortable couches, great wi-fi, and large kitchen space for cooking/eating. We hope to visit again!

Ideal Fishing Lodge
This was the perfect house for me. Couldn't ask for a better setup to park a boat. Great access for fishing. Convenient ride to the marina. House was really maintained well. Good charcoal grill. Kitchen was very well equipped. Plenty of parking. Quiet neighborhood. Really optimal location on the lake. Nothing but good things to say about this one. We'll be back!

Perfect cottage on lake.
Super easy process to rent this adorable lake cottage. Very well stocked with everything we needed. We just brought clothes and food. It was perfect for our 2 Boston Terriers, with the 2 fenced/gated areas. Kayaks were a blast. Lovely place all the way around.

Nothing fancy just a nice clean small lake house with a nice yard for our 2 dogs. Very quiet area but close to town and the marina. Sheryl is always nice to work and she if you have an issue she will take care of it. We’ve never had any issues with this house, it’s perfect for the 2 of us and our big dogs.
