Peaceful lakehouse right on the water.
Plan your trip in the winter and you may get surprised with snow!

So many laughs and memories made around the firepit.

About this property

Peaceful lakefront house on Lake Nottely. Large secluded cove with boat dock.

UPDATE: The $30K shoreline investment is completed!! Lots of grading, a concrete ramp to the dock, widening of the dock, new ramp to dock with handrails, and lots of granite "rip rap" along the shoreline has been installed. Hoping to build a unique kayak launching area soon! Getting to and from the dock will be much safer and easier. We also added new bunk beds in the upstairs bedroom. Plus a couch and game table in the basement replacing the treadmill and weight machine. See new pictures!
---
Looking for a relaxing place on the lake? You found it! Very private. Gentle slope down to year round water. Separate parking area for boat trailers.

Large back porch overlooking the lake with rocking chairs and outside dining. Firepit with plenty of seating for those peaceful nights and amazing star gazing.

VERY clean lake, perfect for swimming and fishing. Some fishing supplies and swimming floats available.

Rent a pontoon or jet skis at local marina. Lots of shops and things to do in the area. Brasstown Bald is highest mountain in GA (you can see Atlanta on a clear day)! Waterfalls and Wineries everywhere. Harrah's Casino in Murphy, NC is 20 minutes away. Helen, GA is 40 minutes away for a "Little Switzerland" type experience (especially Octoberfest!).

3-bedrooms with 2 1/2 baths. Master has queen bed, upstairs guest bedroom has bunkbed twins and an IKEA twin trundle bed that slides out for a queen size bed. Downstairs bedroom has a King bed and twin bunk beds, along with a large private bath with heated floors. TV, Couch, and Game Table also downstairs.

Washer/Dryer upstairs. Double gas oven in kitchen.

Large great room with great appliances and real fireplace. Surround sound speakers make the room great for movies and ball games. Outdoor speakers on the back porch too. (Surround Sound and Outdoor Speakers not working at the moment due to someone damaging the Receiver). Working on a solution.

Firepit overlooks the lake and dock.

Fishing off the dock usually results in success and loads of fun. Teach your kids how to fish the old fashion way with bamboo rods growing on property! Union County Short Term Rental License # 011208.

Cabin was very nice, pictures online exactly what we found. Very cold during our visit. Cabin and layout more suited for warm weather. Would recommend to others. Owner was very responsive when contacted.

This is a great place in a great location. It is just a short drive to all the local mountain attractions and the lake is perfect. My son was able to catch the fish he could stand right off the dock. The owner was extremely responsive and helpful. We will definitely be back!

Great Lake Cabin!

We stayed here with my close family and the kids to enjoy relaxing time on the lake with our boat. The location is close to the public dock, has ample amount of parking for a trailer, and a great spot on a cove that doesn’t have boat traffic to flip you on your raft while relaxing in the water. House was clean and the boat, Bob, was great and nice to talk with. If you stay here be sure to visit the lake Nottley marina to gas up and grab some boiled peanuts. .Great family ran business. We’ll look to return on our next trip for sure!

Mountain Lake Retreat

We had a wonderful time and stay at a house that was full of family love. We stayed across the street from my sons in-laws house and we rotated meal prep for breakfast and dinner for eight people and found the accommodations well suited to support our needs. We ate out on the deck overlooking the lake and it was common to see deer running around when the sun was setting. We rented a boat for the week and the dock at the house worked perfectly. The lake was perfect and we enjoyed the July 4th celebratiobs around the lake. The Kruk's FL

Family time is what this place is all about

Put your phones away and plan to be outdoors the entire trip. The house is located on the lake in a nice quiet cove. We enjoyed hanging out on the dock getting our tan on, jumping in the water to cool off and hitting the kayaks and pedal boat for exploring and fishing in the cove area. At night you can enjoy grilling dinner, hanging around the fire pit, or night fishing off the dock. This cabin is meant for getting outdoors and hanging out with friends or family. Rent a boat at the Nottely Boat Club for the day and go tubing or explore the lake and observe the beautiful homes on the lake.

Total package lake house!

Had a great stay! The house is comfortable, well equipped, super clean, and has great access to the outdoor lake life! Typical evening for us was to cook out on the grill, eat on the deck, fish, paddle, and swim in the lake, build s’more at the fire pit, play games on the deck, and finish with a movie. Sleep in the comfortable bed, wake, explore, and repeat the evening activities! We all had an incredible time!

Restful and Relaxing

We had a great stay at the lake house. We went fishing, had campfires, explored the area and enjoyed ourselves immensely. The host is extremely timely with responding to any questions/concerns . The kitchen is fully stocked with everything that you will need to cook a meal for your family. There are also some great restaurants nearby. I highly suggest Mike’s Seafood restaurant. We hope to return soon for another visit!

About the host

Hosted by Bob Arnett

Host profile image
I'm a laid back, semi-retired good 'ole boy from the Western Carolina mountains. Graduated Appalachian State with an IT degree and took it to Atlanta for 30 years. Finally realized my dream was to be back in the mountains and on a lake. Getting away from the city, traffic, and daily grind was such a stress reliever!

Now I travel around the Carolinas helping homeowners invest in solar to eliminate their power bills. I get back up to the lakehouse as often as I can, but not enough so I decided to share it with you. Please take care of it as it will become my permanent home soon.

Why they chose this property

I was blessed to stumble on this property in 2005. I fell in love with it because of the gentle slope to the water, the circular driveway with plenty of parking and separate parking for boat trailers.

I designed the lakehouse myself to take advantage of the space, views, and peacefulness of the setting. I worked the 1.3 acres for 3 years, wearing out a chain saw and at least 2 weedeaters. In May of 2009, the house was ready. The following year, I finished the basement by adding another master room with a king and 2 bunk beds, a private bath, and a workout room overlooking the lake.

The firepit "amphitheater" area was built in 2016. The house still looks brand new and we like it that way. It's very comfortable for families or just a few couples enjoying some time away from the grind.

In April 2024, the shoreline project was completed. Removed trees for better lake view, lots of grading, 6 tons or granite "rip rap", new concrete dock ramp, new gangway, expanded dock surface.

Blairsville is full of heritage. There seems to be a festival or parade almost every weekend. The antique shops and flea markets are loaded with treasures. There is plenty to do in the area from antique shopping, coming through huge flea markets, hiking, horseback riding, chasing waterfalls, exploring the other nearby towns like Blue Ridge and Murphy, NC (20 minutes away to the Casino).

Of course, you can always waste the day by swimming, floating, and fishing off the dock. Local marinas have pontoons and jet skis for rent too.

What makes this property unique

Gentle slope with stairs all the way to the lake. Water is almost always clear and calm, great for swimming and fishing. Separate, easy parking for boat trailers. Close to gas station and Walmart. Six miles into town. Dead end street with minimal traffic.
