About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

If Fishing, Hunting or just wanting to relax is your "thing", this is the place.

Lovely 2 bedroom, 1 bath vacation house located close to Lake Russell in northeast Elbert County, GA. Includes 3 twin beds in one bedroom and 1 queen size bed in the other. THIS NOT A PARTY DESTINATION. Only registered guest allowed on property. No outside speakers allowed. Fully furnished with wifi and tv. Plenty of parking for boats and vehicles. Ideal for fishermen and hunters. Great location on Lake Russell with 5 boat docks within 3 miles that serve Lake Russell and Clarks Hill (Strom Thurmond). Property is NOT directly on lake as there are NO homes allowed on Corp of Engineers property.

Lake Russell is approximately 26,500 acres in size with 540 miles of shoreline and is one of the few lakes in the Southeast that remains undeveloped, pristine and naturally picturesque. The area provides a wide variety of recreational activities including water sports, boating, hunting, fishing and hiking. Largemouth base and Striper fishing on Lake Russell is so popular that numerous fishing tournaments are held throughout the year. We have 2 very old loveable dogs that greet our guest.

Very Merry Christmas
We came up from Texas for a relaxing Christmas, and that is exactly what we got. We went mining in Abbeville SC, ventured to Helen GA and all around Elberton. Connie and Robert are the best hosts. They make you feel like family. Homey was the sweetest dog and so sweet to my little dogs. I would recommend this little house to anyone looking for that home away from home kind of place. Thank you both for such a special time.

Fishing
We were there to fish. I have a 24' center console boat and there is plenty of room to turn around and park. Electrical hookup for charging batteries is close and a water hose for bait tank, washing up, etc. as well as a fish cleaning table. The turn into and out of the driveway is a little tight, but very manageable. The house was very clean and well kept as is the yard. The owner is very nice and accommodating. I would definitely stay there again...

Spider webs everywhere
Said it was clean & can check in early. From that I expected it to be clean when it wasn’t. I checked in like 5pm & had to clean up before I could even think about staying. Soon as I pulled up a big stray dog ran up on me & my son. Then jumped on my car. Connie was like it’s ok he’s friendly & won’t bite so we got out. Then other dogs was just wondering on the property is was just a mess. Then for my gathering for my Bday she say ppl had to go. It was a mess and I WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS PROPERTY IF U KNOW YOU WILL HAVE COMPANY.!!!

Super friendly host and pretty nice property
For someone on a fishing trip, this would probably be the perfect property. For a family on a get-away stuck in the house due to weather, it fell just a hair short. The primary knock on the place is out of the owners' control, but you can't stream movies. We had a fun rainy day planned with movies galore, but we were instructed not to stream more than one movie because of a data cap. I totally understand, but it made us get super creative. That said, the house had some fun games, which helped a lot. One of the air conditioners wasn't working, but was due to be fixed. And there wasn't a walkway from parking to the unit, so we had to slog through a pretty good puddle, but for a fisher, that's probably no big deal. All in all, it's a nice place with a great host!
