The lake house was even better than we ever could’ve imagined!!!! The porch was perfect for morning coffee and dinner under the sunset. There was plenty of places for us to choose to sleep and the master suite bed was very comfy. The pictures do not do the view justice. It was a perfect trip for our book club!

Great views and location

First time staying at this property and the views and location on the lake were the best! Loved all of the water amenities for kids (jumping/fishing off the dock, kayaks, paddle board, boat slip). The views from the main floor were incredible. Would definitely stay again.

The view of the lake from almost every room was excellent. A family member docked his boat with ease. When not motor boating we enjoyed the available two kayaks and paddle board. There is also a canoe .The boathouse storage room had an abundance of float noodles and inflatable intertubes and a raft. My young nephew (7) and niece (4) had a blast swimming and floating and then sitting on the dock in two available child-size plastic adirondack chairs.Based on a previous review about a skillet with scratches, i brought one. There is an abundance of other good cookware and baking dishes, plates and tableware. My family has many fond memories from our stay at this serene location.

Great stay at Sunrise Cottage!

We recently enjoyed a long weekend at this property. The views are great, the dock access is easy and just the overall experience was superb! Rented a pontoon boat at nearby LaPrades Marina and enjoyed a terrific meal there as well. We had a small group of 3 adults, but the cottage can easily accomodate many more, especially kids. Rusty is a great host and we'd definitely stay again if the opportunity arises!

I cannot emphasize enough how beautiful this location is. You can see the lake from every room. Absolutely breathtaking! It’s a quaint cottage that was a comfortable, cozy spot for my husband and I to get away from it all and relax.

GORGEOUS VIEW

We loved our stay at Rusty's place. He was such a great host and awesome to work with. The house has gorgeous views. There is a ladder off the deck if you want to bring your floats or swim. You also can just sit upstairs or downstairs at the lake and enjoy the view. Loved coffee in the morning overlooking the lake. GREAT lake access. It is also very convenient to LaPrade's marina which is fabulous for dinner. We will be back!

Very, very nice!

Here are a few ways to rewrite your description, focusing on different aspects:Option 1: Emphasizing Relaxation and ConvenienceOur stay at the house was absolutely delightful! Nestled in a private lakeside location, it offers abundant water access right in front, perfect for enjoying the lake and even fishing. You're just a short 30-minute drive to Clayton, Georgia, making it easy to explore.The property boasts plenty of parking and a seamless entry directly into the open-concept living room, kitchen, and dining area on the first floor. This level also features the main bedroom and a spacious wrap-around outdoor porch. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and another porch with a grill and dining area overlooking the lake. A quick stroll down leads to the dock with a boat slip, and kayaks are available for leisurely paddles.A standout feature is the first floor's accessibility, making it ideal for seniors or guests with mobility needs. Plus, air conditioners in every room ensure comfort regardless of the weather. We truly enjoyed every moment!

Cute Lake Cabin w/ amazing water access!

Great property for a little summer getaway! Directly on the lake, it had incredible views and was so fun/easy for our group (age range 8mo-70yrs) to enjoy the outdoors and jump in the lake whenever it called! Rusty, the owner, was incredibly kind and helpful throughout the stay. The cabin is cute and had what we needed for a vacation home. The house itself had a little more age than I expected from the listing and photos. For example, some of the furniture was due for an upgrade (seats and futon had some yucky staining) and I think the whole place could use a deep clean (quite a few cobwebs and lots of dust under the couch). The downstairs open space is also a bit underutilized right now - there is nothing other than a futon there. Would have been nice to be able to use that space for games, reading, etc. All that said, the outdoor decks are fantastic! Firepit for s'mores, grill, etc and owner was kind enough to let us use all the toys in the boathouse - kayaking, paddleboarding, etc. All in all, we had an amazing time but would recommend a deep cleaning and maybe a couple select upgrades to the furnishings. Thanks for a great stay!
