Cute little cabin beautifully situated on a hill overlooking the lake

We will definitely return to this cute little cabin. It is beautifully situated at the top of the hill overlooking the lake. Comfy beds and well-stocked kitchen, but the very best thing is the swing on the porch overlooking the lake.

My family and I have stayed at this cabin multiple times. Has everything you need, comfortable, clean and overall a good time! The owners are excellent and available if needed. A big plus that it is pet friendly and fenced in so your furry loved ones can enjoy family lake trips as well. Nice outdoor grill and many outdoor seating areas to relax. Short flat distance to the lake with lots of beach.

Peaceful Location

The cabin was nicely decorated and equipped with the basics to meet our needs. Although we had a rainy weekend, We enjoyed sipping wine as we watched local wildlife through the picture windows. Restaurants were only 15 minutes away and the well stocked country store was less than 5 minutes away. It was a Peaceful location where we were able to take a break from our busy lives.

House with an amazing view!

The house had a really great feel, comfortable and homely. Loved the deck and direct view of the lake. My husband and I came to the lake to celebrate our anniversary and my birthday. Thank you for providing us with a tranquil spot to celebrate together. The house and view have made the vacation everything we could have hoped for. We also rented the pontoon boat for the first week and enjoyed cruising around the lake - very relaxing. I hope to return some day!

Awesome view

We had a great weekend getaway at your cabin. We loved the outdoor space, spent most of the time there. The fenced yard worked great for our dog except for the few times we had local dog visitors. Enjoyed some great fishing within sight of the house, over the three days we caught 38 bass including spots, largemouth, and hybrids. Thanks for all the info prior to arriving, particularly the boat ramp.

Absolutely Perfect!

We can't say enough about how wonderful this home was to stay in. It is exactly as advertised and more. Working with the property owner was so easy. Kim was very responsive to every little question we had. The house is so well stocked, including the Kitchen with spices and cooking utensils, anything you need to create a meal (other than the main ingredients of course) was in the kitchen. The grill was in pretty bad shape, but my husband figured out how to "rig" the grill so we could cook on it. My husband's favorite thing was simply casting off the pier and for me, simply sitting in one of the swings, up on the deck or at the pier, was so peaceful. Good time to reflect on all that is good in life. We went to Helen, GA, which I think is a must for everyone visiting this area. Also did a couple good hikes, one at Panther Creek and another at Cascade Falls. Beautiful walks. The real bonus, our ability to have our pup with us.The fenced in yard is very big and Bernie had a great time chasing a ball around. Highly recommend this property!

A hidden gem with a priceless view

This cabin was an absolute delight! It was the perfect mix of rustic and original mixed with modern amenities. It had such a cozy and warm feel from the moment you walked in. The bedrooms were extremely comfortable, the towels were phenomenal, the couches were comfortable. Everything was great. The cabin has a security system so those that are not familiar with the rustic environment could feel safe. There are plenty of lights and a gate outside to help keep wildlife in the appropriate areas. There was great firewood available along with a portable firepit. We ended up taking it down on the beach one of our nights and had a fire and chat by the water all night in the sand. All of the neighbors we interacted with were really great and friendly. The town is charming and you cannot beat the dock and view. Morning coffee on the deck and pier cannot be beat. We spent every night outside under the stars and moon and spent every morning out on the deck with coffee and the view. We wanted to get out of the city, find a place with no signal and enjoy the outdoors. If you are looking for the same, don't hesitate and just book this incredible spot. The owner is world class also! Very friendly, very quick to respond and you can tell it is just a good family that owns this space. Thank you Kimberly for opening your place for all of us to share in the memories. We will never forget our stay there and look forward to returning soon.

Kim is not only a wonderful host but a wonderful and caring person. She made our stay wonderful and checked up on us when we had car trouble on our way out. She was proactive and thoughtful. The cabin is lovely, comfortable l, and well-appointed. We loved spending time on the dock and enjoying the porch swing. The deep water location are perfectly for swimming and paddle boarding. We loved our stay at Contentment Cabin and hope to return!

Quiet Getaway

The cabin is perfect for a rustic getaway. There’s not alot to do in the area but we were there for quiet restful week. The cabin fit the bill. Fully stocked with everything you might need, but no closets. We usually hang our clothes for a week stay so was a bit surprising. The extra bedroom however allowed us to just lay our clothes out. I do not like living out of a suitcase for a week. It was very cold during our stay (one morning 21 degrees) we were a bit disappointed that the fireplace was not usable. It was shown in a few of the pictures in the listing but once there it has signs on it to not use. It was not listed in the amenities but the pictures did not show the do not use signs. All that being said we loved the cabin. I personally spent all my time while there sitting in the window seat it was beautiful morning, noon and night.Great communication with the owner! The large fenced yard provided great entertainment and exercise for our pups.

Peaceful cabin on the lake

We had a wonderful visit to rural Georgia to stay in this quiet and peaceful cabin on Lake Hartwell in Martin, GA. The cabin had everything we needed to enjoy our weekend (ie stocked kitchen, linens, towels, WIFI and Roku TV). Seeing family photos around the cabin made us feel very welcome. I would definitely stay here again.
