This was our 2nd trip here and won’t be our last! The home is beautiful and was decorated for Christmas! Did not want to leave!
This beautifully appointed home is designed for memory making with your loved ones, and includes so many thoughtful items, like the games, yummy smelling soaps, and luxurious bedding. Kate is an incredible hostess and had the house fully decorated for Christmas and holiday music playing on our arrival. We are already discussing future visits!
We stayed at The Blue Cottage over the Thanksgiving holiday. I’ve stayed in many Vrbos, but never has one been this well equipped! It was amazing. The house was beautifully decorated for the holidays, and the view of the lake was gorgeous. Honestly, the only thing that would have made it better is if it was my house!
We absolutely loved our stay here! This house is spotless with so much thoughtful attention to detail. The kitchen is immaculate with everything you might need to prepare meals. The family room is both spacious and cozy with a beautiful view of the lake. We loved the screened-in porch where we got to watch deer in the morning. The beds were incredibly comfortable. We appreciated the basement bedroom and living/game room for the teenagers to have their space. Unfortunately, we were only there for two nights but we all said we wanted to come back for a longer stay in the warmer months. I cannot say enough about how much we loved this house. Also, Kate was a delight to work with. This was a positive experience all around.
We cannot begin to describe how much joy and tranquility we experienced during my stay at your lake house. The breathtaking views of the serene lake, the soothing sounds of nature, and the peaceful atmosphere provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It was truly a rejuvenating experience that we will cherish forever. Your thoughtfulness in allowing us to use your lake home is truly commendable. The well-maintained and fully equipped house made my stay comfortable and convenient. From the cozy bedrooms to the spacious living area, every aspect of the house was meticulously designed to ensure a memorable stay. We particularly enjoyed spending time on the deck, savoring the picturesque sunsets and enjoying the company of one another. Moreover, we are grateful for your warm hospitality and the trust you placed in us by opening your home to us. Your kindness and generosity have left a lasting impression on us, and we are truly honored to have had the opportunity to experience the beauty of your lake home. Warmly, Brian and Miranda
This place is amazing. The house is clean and beautiful! One of the best VRBO's we have visited!!
This property is one of our favorite places that we've ever stayed. It was very peaceful, quiet, and relaxing. The house is absolutely gorgeous and the owners have thought of everything! The coffee bar and the game room were a nice touch, and although it was just my husband and I, we had a ton of fun playing pool and ping pong. My only complaint is that the house isn't mine and we don't live there! :)
We had a wonderful relaxing weekend. The home was even better than the photos.
Blue Cottage is a beautiful home that does not feel like a rental at all. The property is well cared for, very clean and each detail has been well thought out. We had every single thing we needed and even things we forgot to bring. Communication with property manager was quick and clear. We will absolutely be back! Highly recommend this adorable home.
Beautiful Home and very relaxing
We had a great time at Blue Cottage. So many activities to keep everyone entertained. So clean and spacious! The kitchen was well equipped for family dinners. The dock space was the hot spot for swimming, fishing and sunning. We caught 8 nice fish during our stay! That blackstone grill was a nice bonus. We even used it for a big family breakfast. Kate and Rich are very cordial and attentive owners. They couldn’t have been nicer to work with.
Our family spends a week on the lake each summer. This year we stayed at the Blue Cottage and had an amazing experience! The home is better than we could have expected. It is beautifully decorated, comfortable for a family of 5, and has everything you could want/need. The boat dock was well maintained and is a perfect spot to watch the evening sunset! Kate & Rick, the hosts, were so kind, accommodating and responsive! I would recommend this home without any hesitation! We definitely plan to return!
Blue Cottage was a slice of Heaven. Our family of six absolutely enjoyed our stay from the moment we walked in till the moment we left. The home is extremely spacious with the three floors. Each room is a great size and the beds are extremely comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped and a great size for family to spread around the island or to enjoy a family dinner at the dinning table. One of our favorite spots in the house is the back porch, it’s extremely peaceful and a great spot to enjoy a cup a coffee. Lastly the lake was the whole reason we booked this property. The views are beautiful! Our kids enjoyed paddle boarding, boating, swimming and they enjoyed finishing off the dock. It was hard to get them to come in. Our oldest even caught a huge catfish! Our family looks forward to making more memories on Lake Lanier.
The property was perfect for our stay. Two families with teenagers. It was a perfect size and very beautifully decorated. Great Lake toys as well! Would definitely recommend.
Blue Cottage is everything you want in a lake vacation. The home is beautiful and location on the lake is fantastic. Super relaxing! Great dock! The porch is my favorite place for morning coffee. You really feel at home at Blue Cottage.
Our family had a great stay at this beautiful Lake House! Beautiful views of the lake and sunsets! Nice lake deck and use of very nice canoe on the lake was great as well!
Very well designed and upgraded... great location on the Lake. Property manager answers texts in timely matter. Great experience!
