Looking for a quiet, cozy retreat? You’ll love this beautiful A-frame cabin, surrounded by trees & nature the perfect getaway for couples, families, or friends.

The space
Walking into the home, you’ll be greeted by two separate seating areas in the great room, featuring massive ceiling heights and beautiful natural light. Next to the great room is a large farm-style dining table that seats six — perfect for shared meals or game nights. To the left, unwind in a cozy reading nook complete with a hanging egg chair.
Enter through the gallery-style kitchen, fully stocked with everything you need to prepare and enjoy your favorite meals. To the left of the kitchen, the primary suite features a comfortable king bed and a private ensuite bathroom.
Upstairs, a grand loft space with a futon-style chair offers extra room to relax, plus a bedroom with two full beds, ample closet space, and its own ensuite bath.
Head to the lower level to enjoy even more living space with a queen sofa sleeper, a TV, and another ensuite bathroom. Sliding glass doors lead directly to the back patio and spacious yard.
Step outside to experience true relaxation:
A large wraparound deck for morning coffee or evening gatherings
A 6-seater jacuzzi for soaking under the stars
A fire pit, hammocks, and yard games like cornhole for fun and connection
Everything here is designed to help you unwind and make lasting memories.

Other things to note
**“Welcome to The Cozy Retreat—where peace, nature, and lake views come together. Designed with adult serenity in mind, we warmly welcome families who can enjoy the space with care. Please note that some features, including our hammock swings, are not child-proof, so we ask that children are closely supervised.
Nestled in a beautiful neighborhood on a peninsula, you’re surrounded by nature with water views—especially in the fall, when the trees open up to reveal clear, stunning views of the lake. While we clean the exterior thoroughly after every stay, leaves and pollen are part of the natural setting and may still be present.
You’ll enjoy the lake’s beauty from the property; however, there is no direct lake access from the house. The lake is just a short walk down the street.
We kindly ask that you read all listing details prior to booking so expectations are aligned. Our goal is simple: we provide the setting, you bring mindfulness—together creating a peaceful, seamless stay.”**

🚫 No Parties or Events
Parties and large gatherings are strictly prohibited.
Unauthorized events will result in a $3,000 fine or the maximum allowed by Airbnb.
After-hours noise complaints that lead to an official city report will incur a $500 fine.
🚭 No Smoking Indoors
Smoking inside the cabin is not permitted. A $500 cleaning fee applies for violations.
You may smoke outdoors responsibly and dispose of waste properly.
🐾 No Pets
To maintain a clean, allergen-free space, pets are not allowed.
📷 Security Policy

🏖 Lake Toy Policy

Nature & Outdoor Environment
This cabin sits among trees, lake, and wildlife, making it a true nature retreat. You may see deer in the yard and occasionally encounter bugs or harmless spiders, including the common Joro spider around Lake Lanier.
Our cleaning team removes webs and outdoor debris before every stay, but nature has a way of returning quickly. Leaves, pollen, and webs can reappear — this is completely normal for the area. The home is thoroughly cleaned before each guest, and our team may stop by before check-in for final touch-ups.
We share this property with nature, and we hope you’ll enjoy the authentic lake-life experience that makes A Cozy Retreat so special.
