Lazy Daze Chalet was a wonderful time for the 3rd summer in a row of us. The host is always attentive and everything you need at the lake house is provided. We're already looking forward to next year.
Great location, nice home. We go on the water for water experiences, but the kayaks and paddle board were outdated and in poor condition! Good floats were locked up in an ownerâs shed.
Quick response time by home owner from booking to departure. Lovely getaway nestled in a quiet area. Spent evenings around the fire pit and fishing from the docks. Nice escape to the mountains, while minutes away from stores and restaurants.
Had a wonderful time with our family. The house was perfectly suited for us and our family. Location was perfect. We loved our stay and hope to be able to get back this summer!!
We had a couple of âLazyDaysâ at the house with fishing, hot tub time and just sitting around. We spend one full day at the Fall Festival at the Georgia Mountain Fairgrounds. Hole in the Wall and Sawmill for breakfast did not disappoint. The house was perfect. The drawing guest book was a favorite of all.
We came for a few nights with our teen boys and were pleasantly surprised to see how close it was to the town of Blairsville. We have family in the area so the short driving distance was nice. The neighbors were extremely close though, which is often the case when on a lake. The home was just as pictured, clean and full of supplies. We left a day early as the weather wasnât great but we would highly recommend it.
We were really excited for our mini stay vacay for thanksgiving but we didnât really like the location were the cabin is located also what we didnât like was that it was extremely messy the shower where really dirty and bedding sheets had hairs on them we had to put them to wash , i will definitely not be coming back to this location. We expected it to be clean especially with all this going on with covid. To access the code it was really easy and also there was no Wifi it didnât work and tv downstairs didnt work as well.
We spent three relaxing weeks from late July through mid August '23 and loved our time at Lazy Daze. First of all, Jennifer the owner is super responsive and friendly. The house is located in a beautiful & cozy cove and faces west so you get plenty of afternoon sun. The screened porch has a great view of the cove and makes for a great location for working, dining, playing cards, etc. It's also very close to town which has some good restaurants (don't miss LaLa's cuban & Jim's Smokin 'Que), Ingles Market, CVS, golf course, Walmart, etc. The house has some wear & tear, but they are minor things and nothing that will prevent you from having a great time. A few considerations you may find helpful:
- Cell reception in the area is pretty tough, but the internet at the house screaming fast
- No need to bring beach towels as there's a half-dozen located downstairs in the game room
- Highly recommend scoring some inflatable floaties (the nearby Walmart sells them for $4) - an end of day cocktail floating in the cove was on of our favorite activities.
- Your best best for wine & beer is at Ingles, although they are pricey. For liquor I suggest you bring your own. There's NO alcohol sales in Union county on Sunday's.
We visited this home the last week of July 2020. It was our third annual trip with family friends. This home was perfect. Total we had four adults, two teenagers, and two under 10. The kids had an amazing time swimming and fishing off the dock while us adults hung out on the screened in porch and the amazing new dock. We enjoyed the firepit roasting smores (you may want to bring wood), used the kayaks that were supplied, and the kids enjoyed the hot tub.
Lake Nottely is beautiful. We've been to several lakes in the area, and this may be my favorite so far. The water was really clear and clean, and the shoreline was 70% forested. We rented boats through Lake Nottely Boat Club and Young Harris. The Nottely Marina was really close by, but they did not allow pulling a tube behind the boats the rented.
The only downfall to the house would be the limited storage in the Kitchen for our food, we ended up keeping some of our stuff in the Bedroom closet that is off of the kitchen. And a couple missing cooking items (like a large frying pan). These were both trivial.
Overall the trip was amazing, and we would definitely consider staying at this home again.
Cozy, relaxing cabin on a great part of Lake Nottley
Our family of 4 plus 2 friends of our kids stayed for 3 nights in late June. The property is tucked into a quiet cove that we felt comfortable letting our 10-14yo kids kayak and paddle on their own.
The cabin was clean and all the details about the property were very clear. We had a small issue with yellow-jackets when we first arrived, but the host was immediately responsive and sent out professional services to help right away.
The cabin is cozy with a really great main room where the upstairs loft bedroom can look down into the den and dining area. Our kids like sitting up top in the loft to watch TV down below. The screened in porch caught a cool breeze in the hot parts of the day. Down stairs our girls kept to themselves playing fooseball and lounging around on the bunk beds. The stone fire-pit area was spacious and comfortable (great chairs!) and we all got to enjoy s'mores without poking each other with sticks.
The dock is in great shape and has one of the best ladders I've ever used. We were able to float in tubes under the roof of the dock to enjoy some shade. We rented a pontoon from Nottely Marina and it was easy to tie into the dock. The cove is quiet, but I was able to kayak up to the marina to rent, avoiding leaving a car.
Really everything about communicating with the host was perfect. We've stayed on Lake Nottely many years and always our favorite places are the ones where the hosts are responsive. I would be confident in renting with Jennifer every time.
I booked this lake house for my family (6 adults) while in town for a wedding. Although the location was ideal and rhe neighborhood is quiet, the house was not up to our standards.
My first impression upon arrival was the musty smell from dampness and uncleaned fireplaces.
Once my family checked in there were many issues that needed addressing. They did not tell me because of all the festivities going on but I would have immediately notified the owner if I knew.
The house was not COVID clean. They opened the oven and it had not been cleaned for a very long time. Dirty dishes were still in the dishwasher and the porches were not recently swept from pollen.
One evening when trying to start a fire in the downstairs fireplace it was clear that the flue was clogged. So they needed to put out the fire.
They could not enjoy sitting on the dock because it had not been moved to accommodate the rising water levels. That was fixed by the last day of their stay. Too late at that point.
Lastly, there was an information book that was specific about loose trash in the garbage cans, unfortunately there was already loose trash in them when they arrived.
My sister spent a good part of the first night cleaning the inside of the cottage which really took away from their time to relax before the wedding.
The last day, the electronic keypad battery went dead (it happens) and the homeowner did get back within a reasonable amount of time with a solution. However, it delayed my sister from attending an after wedding brunch.
I'm hoping that these things were just an oversight and the home owner will consider a bit more TLC to her property before the summer season kicks off.
This is the second time that our group of friends have stayed at this cabin. We do an annual girls trip and we plan to make this our annual cabin from now on!
Location, Location. Directly on the water. We enjoyer the property from the jacuzzi, to the fire pit and especially sitting on the dock or lounging in the water. This house has it all. We spent almost every day in the water. Highly recommended this property. Will definitely be back.
This Lake front property has everything you could hope for. It was peaceful and serene with great lake access and the coolest dock in the cove. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped with all the necessities. We look forward to returning in the future!
Me and my family had a wonderful time at the lake. Everything was well prepared for us which made check in and check out that much easier. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
We had such a lovely time at the lazy days cabin! Jennifer was a wonderful host, very responsive and accommodating. The cabin is just lovely: clean, comfortable (cozy afghans on every couch!), updated but still with a lakeside rustic vibe. Location was good, close enough to town for restaurants and shops and a few grocery trips. The water was low while we were there but Jennifer communicated it accurately so we expected it, and the water was too cold for swimming anyway! We enjoyed the view, hanging out on the dock, a few campfires, watching birds, some hot tub time, and having a great family vacation. We are absolutely planning to come again!
