This location exceeded our expectations. It was clean, comfortable, spacious, and cozy. We were able to enjoy the dock and the screened porch. Loved that we were able to bring our pup along with us. She loved the dock. Beautiful view. Also appreciated how well equipped the home was in the kitchen - everything you could need! Thank you for a wonderful stay. Check in and check out was incredibly easy. The host was quick to respond to any questions. We will absolutely be back!

Beautiful lake cottage! The screened in top deck is where we spent most of our time. We rented this place for my birthday weekend, and the host had a Happy Birthday banner hanging on the fireplace when we arrived. Such a thoughtful touch! We highly recommend this place, and hope to stay again sometime.

Great Stay!This was our second trip to Lake Burton and the Burton Lake Escape property. Our first trip was late winter and this time we wanted more time in and on the lake. We got it! The property is located in a wide cove that allows for great kayaking/ canoeing and swimming. We were able to rent a pontoon boat from The Boat Shop and it really enhanced our stay. The property is really well provisioned and the host great to work with. By the way it is dog friendly and our golden retriever Lizzie gave it all 5's. We will be back and Highly Recommend!

We just finished our second year staying at this incredible Lake Burton rental, and we can't recommend it enough! If you're looking for a fully appointed and extremely comfortable home, this is the place.The house is a true gem, with everything you need for a relaxing getaway. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the supplies and appliances you could ask for, and the beds are incredibly comfortable and clean. Our favorite spot was the beautiful screened-in porch, perfect for lazy mornings and peaceful evenings. The owners have also created so many thoughtful little seating areas and magical nooks throughout the property.Water access is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy the lake, and the owner is incredibly helpful and responsive. We hope to visit again next year!

Lake Burton Escape THE Perfect Getaway

Rarely in our travels have we found such a well stocked, well planned and executed vacation rental! The experience is built around a gigantic enclosed porch that offers a stunning view of Lake Burton's beauty! Beneath the porch, lies a well manicured lot offering hammocks, swings, fire pit and an easy walk down to your private dock and boathouse. The included canoe and kayaks are easily launched and open up easy access for getting on the water.Back at the house, the master bedroom opens onto the porch allowing the wonderful view 24/7. The downstairs mini master has it's own view and easy access to the outside activities. i.e. ping pong, grilling and corn hole.Perhaps the greatest surprise was the degree to which every subtle detail had been taken care of. For example, we had full DISH service offering Internet a full array of programming and music channels. As compared to the more common practice of giving you internet access and requiring you stream your own content. There was also a working landline with contact numbers for local hospital, vet clinic and emergency contacts.Suffice to say, we were very pleased with our long weekend stay and look forward to coming back in the near future....!P.S. Our golden retriever, Lizzie gave it 5 paws !

This is what you are looking for . . .

Are you looking to relax? See the sights? Enjoy nature? Be comfortable? If so, do I have the place for you! Lake Burton Escapes is a wonderful escape from the daily grind. Whether you want to drink coffee on the back porch as the sun rises or enjoy an adult beverage on the back porch as the sunsets, this cabin has it all. Spacious, cozy, warm, open, and absolutely inviting. Whether you want to play table tennis, go kayaking, play a game, read a book, or use very good internet, you have a wide choice of options at the cabin. You can get away from everything in only about 20 minutes, but still have access to good food in Clayton and also be close to adventures in Helen, Clayton, Hiawasee, and North Carolina. And to top it off, the hosts are attentive (checked on us when we arrived) and hospitable (everything we needed was at the cabin). I could not recommend Lake Burton Escapes more!

Beautiful lake escape

Burton Lake Escape is such a beautiful and peaceful home. Its location on the lake is perfect. The cove had very little boat traffic which made it perfect for kayaking and using the canoe. Our 9, 16, and 18 year old kids caught several different types of fish right off the dock. We loved all the outdoor games provided as well as a well stocked game cabinet inside. We had everything we needed right there at the house. There was no reason for us to leave but if we needed to, Clayton was a short 25 minute drive away. We had an amazing stay at this house and would love to visit again.

Nice Family Getaway

We had a lovely stay and hope to return! The house came with everything you needed. Our favorite part was the view from the large screen porch. We enjoyed coffee, meals, and happy hour from there daily. My only complaint would be that there is no trash service, so you have to take everything with you, but I understand that its hard to get trash service up there and the owner suggested a few close by spots to dispose of. Overall we had a fantastic stay with our family! Thank you for sharing your home with us!
