Holiday rentals with a kayak in Gainesville

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Ellen’s place! The dock was particularly spectacular and such a nice place to hang out on a sunny afternoon! The outdoor space around the house was similarly pleasant. The only thing that stood out is that there are several additional security cameras on the exterior of the house as well as motion sensors and noise level detectors inside the home. Other than these, my family and I felt right at home!

What a lovely lake cabin escape! Gilbert was communicative and very accommodating. We really enjoyed the kayaks, fire pit, and relaxing on the dock. The place has all the essentials and cute rustic charm. I’d definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lake house! It was perfect for our family—spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The view of the lake was so serene, and we loved spending time outside soaking it all in. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, which made cooking meals a breeze. It truly felt like a home away from home. The peaceful setting and thoughtful touches throughout the house made our trip extra special. We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, family-friendly getaway, and we’d love to stay here again!

Cute and cozy cottage! Host was exceptionally responsive which was greatly appreciated as we had a little difficulty finding the driveway. Would definitely return!. It is important to be aware that the wall between the bedrooms does not go all the way up, so the bedrooms are not private although this was not a huge issue for us.

Jeff’s place was exactly as described and matched the pictures. We had more than enough space for our family of 8. We really enjoyed celebrating our 2 y/o bday here. So much so we all agreed we’d come back to celebrate other times together here! Thank you again

Excellent place to stay. Easy to find with plenty of room to park. We had 5 trucks and 2 boat trailers. It is a steep climb back from the boat dock but worth it.

Very responsive host, easy checkin, nice location. Beds and bathrooms were nice and clean

This was a great location for a weekend trip to the lake. Very accessible from Atlanta. Located in a quiet neighborhood. Nice location to access local restaurants, grocery stores, and the various sites of Gainesville nearby. Home was comfortable and clean. There was an included pack and play, high chair, and life jackets for kids that worked well for our little family.

What a wonderful property! We visited for our honeymoon and had such a lovely time. Spent a good chunk of our time in the loft, listening to the rain on the tin roof! The forest behind the house is beautiful. I learned that I really love baths while here, as it was a bit too chilly to use the outdoor shower. Didn't mind that at all and it was really nice to scrub down and soak in the tub. We loved how getting to Foxfire and Tallulah Gorge was very quick from this location. White Birch Provisions in Clayton is incredible and you should visit if you stay here. Overall was a fantastic time and we are so thankful we could experience this beautiful, magical place! <3

We had the best time staying at your house! The back porch quickly became our favorite spot We enjoyed the fire pit while watching college softball. Thank you for your hospitality!

Great location and very peaceful. Short walk to the lake. Well equipped cabin and is very clean and comfortable. Great comma from the host. No issues during the stay.

Great get-away for a family! Lots to do on the property, you can fish, swing, look for salamanders in the creek and look at the waterfall. Sitting by the firepit watching the river go by was relaxing.

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Zoe's house. The house was close to Lake Lanier Olympic Park and Laurel Park, and not far from the downtown. Zoe's artwork, furnishings, sheets, towels and candles really set the home apart from other places at which I have stayed. We look forward to our next stay.

Beautiful home! Susan is awesome and communication was incredible. She really made our stressful wedding weekend easier and I truly appreciate her going the extra mile to assist with our special accommodation needs.

This was our second stay at the Architect’s Cottage. It was as peaceful and calm this time as before. The deck and lake are our favorite things but inside the house is great too: clean and cozy and beautifully appointed with unique furnishings, art and lighting. Thank you, Jennifer for making this available again for us.

We were sad about our usual vacation home being sold, but it must have been a blessing in disguise. Hal’s place is beautiful. We spent the entire week enjoying the water with our kids then finished the days with smores at the fire pit. It’s the perfect get away home to spend time outdoors with the family. We can’t wait till next time!

The cabin is cozy, tucked away in beautiful wooded area. Kitchen was clean and well stocked. Our dogs loved their long walks away from the city. Will visit again..

We had a nice calm stay, the kayaking was certainly the main reason for booking this cabin and it was lovely with a trip on the lake. The place was nice and rustic inside, and jacuzzi was also good. The only complaint was the coffee pod machine wasn't working and constantly switched on and off

Everything about it was perfect. Make sure you have a good car with the ability to go into low gear or all wheel drive. The steep switch backs arnt for the faint hearted. I appreciated the seasonings and tooth picks and all the extra small things that made it all more worth it. I wish the rule book had been on the table with the welcoming card. I didn’t notice it until my last day. But that is my fault . I couldn’t have been more satisfied . It was peaceful and more serene than I anticipated. Definitely coming back here.

This place is awesome! It’s nestled into a hillside along a stream with views of the lake through the trees. It’s located on a dead end road and you have to cross the bridge to access the property. I like that because I was able to let my dog off leash and I didn’t have to worry about her getting distracted by other dogs or people walking by. It seemed very private, even though they were neighbors close by. I enjoyed having my morning coffee either sitting in the bench on the creek or on the deck . Afternoons were great hanging in the hammock or walking down to the waterfall, which is about a 10 minute walk. We were celebrating our anniversary during our stay and we had a nice relaxing week at the property! We would like to return again soon.😊

This was by far one of our favorite vacations and we have traveled all over the world! The house was nicely furnished, very clean bedrooms and hotel like bathrooms. The kitchen was extremely functional and the decks were furnished well to use right away. The outdoor living area was amazing! Our family of 7 could watch a movie every night and roaring fire. This was the most relaxing and recharging vacation we have had and exactly what we needed after a busy school year. The surroundings were magical and felt like living in a tree house!

Would love to stay two days but that’s out of budget which leaves rental access from 3 pm to 10 am for the price.

We had a wonderful stay at this Blue Ridge cabin! The cabin vibes were exactly what we were hoping for peaceful, cozy, and relaxing. We especially loved the screened-in porch, which was perfect for enjoying our morning coffee. The beds were very comfortable, and the location was great close to everything but still felt tucked away and quiet. I would absolutely recommend this cabin to anyone visiting the area and would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful time! It was a little bit like sleeping in a treehouse. Very peaceful and pretty surroundings, lots of wildlife to enjoy. We really loved the grill and how easy it was to use, no need to worry about charcoal or a propane tank. The bed swing on the front porch was my favorite place to read and rest. My kids enjoyed using the kayaks, fishing, and being out on the water. The kitchen was well stocked, too. I arrived later than expected, and it was dark. Corey‘s communication was very helpful and prompt. And the binder of information might be the most thorough I’ve ever come across. Thank you for thinking of everything.
