About this property

Lake House Retreat! Near~Marina/Eateries/Grocery Relax/Fish/Boat/Nothin

Simple & Sweet 4 Bedroom Home ON Lake Sinclair, Milledgeville, GA

Beautiful Lakefront home on Lake Sinclair with a boathouse and dock.

The Hidden Gem is a beautifully maintained, tri-level home set up exclusively for our VRBO guests. On the upstairs level are two bedrooms with a full bath, just five steps UP from the main level. On the main level you'll find the kitchen, living room, office, dining area and living room with a flat-screen TV. Glass doors take you out on a deck with a dining table and chairs overlooking the lake. 10 steps down you’ll find a bedroom and bath, plus an additional den with a flat-screen TV in case your group likes watching different programs, with a glass door that leads directly out to the backyard and lake. This den converts to an additional bedroom with a pull out queen sized hide a bed. There is a laundry room with a new washer and dryer, covered outdoor seating, boathouse with tie-ups for a boat, fire pit, charcoal grill, picnic table, and dock. Marcos Pizza is yummy & delivers, plus Applebee’s, Longhorns, and many other restaurants are a short five minutes toward downtown Milledgeville. For your entertainment and dining super close, there is a cool local restaurant on the lake, Ole Chobys (Formerly Jackson's). They feature a live band, and dinner every Friday and Saturday evening.

About 30 minutes from Macon and about 90 minutes from Atlanta this home is a wonderful place to be and works well for large families and friends.!

Please note that following the fees used by hotels, our posted pricing is based on double occupancy (2). Additional people, just like in hotels, are $25 per person per night.

Great stay

We were in town for a wedding and this lake house was perfect for our family. We loved the location and the layout of the house. Having the golf cart was a bonus as we were able to visit family nearby. The hosts were great with communication as well.

Excellent stay! Will definitely book again

This place was excellent! It had everything we needed for all our friends to get together and enjoy the lake. Beautiful property and it is located back in a cove so there’s nearly no boat traffic to bother you. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back

Family vacation

We enjoyed staying on Lake Sinclair. We were close to restaurants and grocery stores. We rented a boat from the nearby marina and were able to dock it at the property easily. My family also enjoyed fishing from the dock. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful.

Wonderful place!

Great place for family vacation. The golf cart is wonderful bonus and the breakfast items left for us was a great touch. The home is older but updates were done well and the outdoor space is excellent. We would recommend to anyone and will be back! You can tell the owners go above and beyond for the renters!

Home was beautiful

This listing was perfect. The neighborhood was great, the home was clean, it held 8 people comfortably and the breakfast was a nice touch. Would definitely stay here again. We wished it was warm enough to use the beautiful deck and the backyard was a great size for a larger guest stay.

Peaceful Vacation

My family and I really enjoyed this house. It was perfect for the 4 of us. We loved having the golf cart to take thinks back and forth from the boat, although the walk wasn't bad without it. Quiet neighborhood close to the marina. It was very peaceful at night. Thanks for hosting us!

Amazing Place to Stay!!

This was my first ever staycation as in staying local. I live 25 minutes away. The location was one of the biggest reasons I chose it and I am so glad I did. The house is set up great for 2 families because it is a split level. The yard is beautiful and there were 6 deer who visited us every morning and night of our stay. The boat dock was great to fish off of and the area around the dock was perfect for kids/adults swimming. I will definetly rent again if available.

Great getaway

This property is in a great location, close to restaurants and the highway. We stayed one night on our way to TN. The house was clean and well stocked. We appreciated the eggs, sausage, and orange juice that were provided. Wish we had more time to hang out at the lake. Will definitely stay here again if make it back to this area.

Lovely home!

This home is beautifully situated on the lake and convenient to Milledgeville. We enjoyed sitting on the dock and having dinner on the covered deck. Hosts were quick to respond to questions and helpful. The Check-in & Check-out process was simple. Breakfast items provided are a very thoughtful extra.

Our stay

We found inside cameras plugged into outlets in the upstairs bathroom and two more in bedrooms. This is the reason we cannot stay here again. We understand outside cams for security but inside in private areas are unacceptable.
