Waterfront vacation rentals in Rabun County

Very comfortable house with everything you need plus more.great location.loved the roomy balcony overlooking the river! Great place and great experience.

I’m late leaving this review but we had a wonderful stay. The place looks brand new, sparkling clean, beautifully designed, and extremely comfortable. Craig and Janet couldn’t have been more friendly. We ran into Craig a few times around the property and had a really great time talking to him. We brought the boat and spent most of our days on the water. From a boating perspective, the dock is at the back of a quiet deep water cove. No worries whatsoever about water level or any kind of wake roughness, and it’s right around the corner from 18 mile creek access so drop in and take out is a breeze. It was a perfect place to retreat back to after a long day on the water. We can’t wait to come back and stay with Janet and Craig again!

What a gem of a place. We booked this listing on a last-minute whim for MDW. Not only was it even lovelier than the pictures but it was exactly the getaway our weary souls were needing. There are few places that will calm you better than a cup of coffee on the patio. Lucia was extremely responsive, gave great and clear instructions and was very accommodating. The only draw back is the number of stairs down to the lake. The view is killer but with toddlers that made things like bathroom breaks tricky. If you’re not super mobile take that into account. Otherwise, this was a slice of paradise. The fire ring, stocked wood, and plethora of kayaks and paddle boards made this a fun weekend to remember.

It was an easy walk to downtown, but still felt like you were away enough from the downtown. We enjoyed sitting at the river reading with our books and having a fire. She left us some sweet treats and firewood. Very relaxing and enjoyable. Highly reccommend

Location, location, location! Everything is within walking distance. We loved leaving our car and just walking out the door. It's right above a restaurant so the parking lot does get crowded, but you do have a designated parking spot. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the tubers in the river. At night all the buildings are lit up and the view is great. The rental itself was perfect for what we needed. The listing doesn't mention it, but it does have a hairdryer and washer/dryer inside. Huge comfy bed. Overall a great stay!

The resort is lovely! It’s a nice get away. Just keep in mind cell service is limited in this area! It’s beautiful. 😍

This property really surprised us! It was much nicer than we could have imagined. The price was amazing. The location was perfect. Everything about it was just wonderful.

We were extremely pleased the moment we walked into the unit. Beautiful inside, room for everyone, kitchen had everything we needed to cook, super quiet and peaceful. The coffee bar and water fridge was stocked, assorted munchie basket and the quality bathroom towels were the added touches that a lot of previous Airbnbs have missed. The hosts were kind and proactive and we did not need one thing. My adult kids sat down for chess and that was the bonding time we’ve been wanting to have. The patio/balcony provided the best coffee and cocktail time. My favorite place 💜🧡 GO TIGERS

This property is beautiful and the house is great! Lots of room to spread out. There is no lake access from the property, but there is a free public beach about 10 minutes away, small but not crowded. Our family had a restful time with games, movies, cooking, the beach, and shopping in Clayton, about 20 minutes away. When you get to the turn off of Burton Dam Road, gps says “turn onto Cherokee Ridge Drive” but it’s the driveway to the house. The house number is on Burton Dam Road. Thank you, Lauren, for sharing your house.

We will have to come back and visit this wonderful house and boat house in the summertime. I can only imagine how wonderful it is when you can enjoy sitting on the dock and soaking in this beautiful lake. We visited on probably the coldest weekend of the year, so we did not get to take full advantage of all the amenities. Everything was really nice and we had a very relaxing long weekend.

The house was amazing, plenty of room, very clean and close to the lake and many restaurants and places to visit. The host was responsive and great getting all the info to me to get into the house. I will definitely be staying here again.

We enjoyed the stay. Nice cozy house and beautiful view of the lake

My husband and I visited for our 41st Anniversary Weekend. We have always loved the area and this was our first stay on Lake Mountain Rest. The home was beautiful, comfortable and clean. The owner supplied everything we needed for our long-weekend getaway. We enjoyed the dock, both decks and the gas grill.

We really enjoyed the view of the lake and the deck the most. We sat on the deck with our feed dangling in the water and saw a beaver swim by and lots of ducks and birds. Very peaceful.

We had a weekend trip to the mountains planned originally to camp but when many storms were forecasted we found this gem of a place last minute. It’s on a beautiful plot by the river and very peaceful. Follow the directions when you get a few miles away as Map programs like Google will take you to the wrong place!!!

great place parking is a little tight but beautiful place on the lake

This Young Harris condo was a great stay for our family while participating in a wedding that was at the Brasstown Valley Resort a few minutes away (nice golf course there too). This condo was a perfect home base for us and we loved the large deck, the lake and mountain views and the proximity to the resort and other sites around Young Harris and Hiawassee, like the Crane Creek Winery and Bell Mountain Park (VERY steep drive not for every car or driver, but spectacular views ... we even saw a bald eagle). Amy and Kyle were great communicators and had very good suggestions. The kitchen was particularly well stocked and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again and would love to explore the area more. I will note that the 4th bedroom, which is well described in the listing, really is more of a sun room, but would be a perfect "bedroom" for 1 or 2 children. We did not use the room, but the window views of the lake and mountains in it are the best in the condo.

Great little weekend getaway for our family of 4 including 2 small children. So many amenities and lots to do. The view from the patio with the porch swing was amazing!

We enjoyed our stay at Kim's place. It was very convenient to our son's wedding venue on Lake Fairfield. The area is so beautiful and Kim's place was very clean, well appointed and updated. It was easy to find and easy to access per the directions. Kim was always responsive to any questions I had and the clear communication was appreciated. We would definitely book again.

Fran’s place was the perfect place for the family to stay for my son’s graduation. Very close to campus but away from the crowds. Fran’s place was clean and comfortable. The sheets and towels felt high end. I would recommend this place 100% and hope to be back! Fran was very proactive and made sure I had everything I needed for a smooth check in and check out.

Very nice condo. Three large bedrooms each with their own bathroom. Close to everything. Host was super responsive. Great stay. Thanks again

Great and responsive Host. Location was great and within walking distance of Helen attractions. Home still had festive decorations and was very clean and cozy. Will definitely be back for Oktoberfest. Thanks for a great weekend!

Beautiful home that fit our family’s needs perfectly.

This spot was amazing to stay in and we would absolutely visit again. Close enough to downtown to have fun but far enough away that you felt like you had a private space in the woods. The upstairs swing was pure bliss with a cozy, fluffy blanket on a brisk morning. The only real issue we ran into during our stay was with parking. The garage only fits 2 cars comfortably and we had 3. The person with the most reliable E brake gets the hill! Also, bring your own toiletries. They weren't provided and the local store is a little pricey.
