Little but mighty

With a few attention to details this place would be a 4-5 across the board. Walking distance to marina (food/ive/etc) and at least one restaurant. 20 minutes to town of Clayton for ALL needs. Best lake in Georgia!

Lake lounging

What a great place to kick back and watch kick-offs on a fall football weekend. Who needs a tailgate when you have a lake view, comfortable porches, and a boathouse porch? The living area was spacious and the bedrooms were comfy. Walking distance to a marina with boat rentals, a store, and an ice cream shop!

Lake Burton

Lake Burton never disappoints!! House was clean and comfortable and we had a great time with our grandkids. A few things that could have been better: - the door was a challenge to open. The digital lock required 10 digit code and it was difficult to open. No wifi was a challenge too because all the streaming services required a sign in - which required me to scan a QR code or input a code to confirm my accounts but I couldn’t sit to no WiFi Very frustrating

Nice and Cozy

This property is in a great location with great views of north Ga Mountains. Although we came during the fall/winter I would love to experience this spot during the summer. The only complaint I have is that the property requested no pets, however while lounging in the sitting area I stepped on something hard. Once I kicked it out of the rug (which that rug was super soft) I realized it was an old dried piece of dog feces. I have a picture for proof. I also found lots of long white and brown dog hair in the rug and in the couch. Overall the property was great and I would love to book again in the future.

This is a really nice cabin! Spacious bedrooms, great views from the house and top of the boathouse deck. There is only one bathroom. The swimming access to the lake is a narrow landing off the back of the boathouse in a shallow cove so you can’t jump in or really swim right off the dock but it’s a short walk/paddle to deeper water. It’s great to be right on the water and the views and proximity to Anchorage Marina, hiking, and Clayton were great!
