Beautiful home with a great view

We enjoyed our stay…making smores by the firepit, warming up in the hottub, watching TV while grilling on the terrace, and watching the sunset on the dock. We appreciated Shelly’s responsiveness when needed and the cozy atmosphere of the house.

Amazing Stay at Lake Oconee!

This property at Lake Oconee is perfect! I would live here if I could. My daughter said it best, “Can we come back every year? This was an amazing get away!” I would highly recommend staying here.

Relaxing family time

We loved the house! The floor plan was great and it had all the amenities we wanted. It was very clean - just delightful, really. We ate out on the covered deck every evening. We loved the fire pit and ping pong and the other games. Shelly was very responsive. Appropriately named Sunset Cottage! The sunsets were beautiful.

THE ABSOLUTE BEST!

It really doesn't get better than this. This is the perfect get away and the home is perfection. The home is beautiful, spotless, and equipped with everything you need for the perfect lake escape. From kayaks to the fire pit, games, hot tub, beautiful porch and deck to the well-stocked kitchen upstairs AND down, comfy beds, this is a must stay! I can't wait to go back. The owner was so accommodating and gracious as well!

Fantastic home on a peaceful cove

This was a great stay for us. The house was beautiful and modern with all the amenities. The kitchen was nice and the back covered porch was exceptional. Plenty of spaces for the family to spend time together (or apart! :-). The outside spaces were great. Sitting on the dock for sunrise and sunset were worthy of the trip. Host was UBER communicative and very very responsive and helpful. Best ever. Thanks Shelly for a great experience.
