Tucked away on the quiet northern end of Lake Lanier in Lula, Georgia—where the Chattahoochee River flows into the lake—this rare 5.2-acre waterfront retreat offers an exceptional combination of privacy, natural beauty, and long-term potential. With over 800 feet of Corps frontage, the property provides an expansive, secluded setting surrounded by forest, water views, and abundant wildlife. Originally built in 1986 as a Boy Scout shelter, the cabin has been thoughtfully expanded and fully renovated in 2022 to create a bright, inviting cottage-style retreat. Improvements include the addition of a spacious living area along with power, water, HVAC, insulation, a full kitchen, and bath, blending relaxed lake living with modern comfort. Inside, you’ll find wood floors, granite countertops, a cozy wood-burning stove, and an abundance of windows that fill the home with natural light and showcase the surrounding landscape. The 1-bedroom, 1-bath layout (646 sq ft) is efficiently designed for comfort and simplicity. Wake up to peaceful water views, enjoy coffee on the expansive back deck, and unwind by the fire pit as the sun sets over the cove. A covered front porch adds to the home’s welcoming charm, offering multiple spaces to relax and take in the quiet setting. Located within a protected shoreline area, no private dock is permitted—preserving the quiet, low-traffic setting that makes this portion of Lake Lanier so desirable. A public boat ramp less than one mile away provides convenient access for boating, while the immediate area is ideal for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing. Guests consistently praise the property’s peaceful, private setting and beautifully designed interior, often describing it as a true escape from everyday life. The cottage’s light-filled spaces, thoughtful details, and connection to nature create a memorable experience, with many noting it as one of the best stays they’ve had and returning again. Currently used as a part-time short-term rental, the property has achieved consistent 5-star guest reviews and top-tier performance among area Airbnb rentals, offering excellent potential for supplemental income. The home is being offered with refrigerator, range, washer, and dryer included, and furnishings are negotiable—creating a potential turnkey opportunity for personal use or continued rental. In addition to serving as a private retreat or income-producing property, the 5.2-acre lot with extensive frontage offers a rare opportunity for a future custom lake estate. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful escape, a unique investment, or a long-term lakefront vision, this property represents a truly uncommon opportunity on Lake Lanier. Priced below appraisal!
