About this house rental

Union County, GA STR License # 012060 - The Nottely Nest could be your perfect getaway, with a year round deep water dock. From the moment you walk in, you will see panaramic mountain and lake views from most every room. You can even see the highest point in GA - Brasstown Bald. Lake Nottely is not your typical “close to Atlanta” lake. It is a TVA mountain lake with the majority of the shoreline owned by the US Forest Service. Some of the best fishing in the Southeast - known for Striped Bass, Largemouth Bass, and Black Crappy.

We have a fantastic hot tub with a view, right outside the porch doors for those chilly nights. A double Kayak and Paddle Board are also provided.

Nottely Marina is closed from Oct. 31 - March. If you need gas from the marina, you can call 24 hours in advance, and they will try to arrange a meeting. 706-745-3638.

We are the 2nd to last house on a dead-end street. This is a great quiet neighborhood with considerate year round residents on both sides. Our house is bigger than it looks.

Bring your boat/jet ski or rent one at the Marina - right around the corner

- This is a deep water lot, so the hill is rather steep. We have taken great pains to make this as moderate as possible.

- Concrete walkways traverse the hill to small sets of steps.

The Dock:

We have a Double Decker Aluminum dock with a single slip and tie-ons. This dock is so fun! Tandem Kayak and Stand Up Paddle Boards are available for your use.

***The lake levels go down significantly outside of season. Full Pool is approximately mid April - August. The lake levels drop up to 14 feet off season. We are fortunate enough to have deep water for your year round enjoyment. The end of the dock is around 30’ deep with full pool.

Our insurance requires us to get signed liability waivers from all adults, specifically for the amenities.

It is common practice in the area to let dogs roam off leash. There are dogs in the neighborhood owned by the neighbors that have always been friendly to us.

If you are planning to bring a dog, please contact us in regards to easy walking trails.

We are in a great location on the lake just 5 minutes to town. We have provided an attractions binder to illustrate some of the many popular activities in the area. In addition to anything lake related, there are many great restaurants and shops just a couple miles away, including: a large Ingles grocery store (with Starbucks), Home Depot, Walmart, Chick-fil-A, pizza, amazing BBQ, seafood, Mexican, Cuban, Japanese fusion, tacos, subs, Grandaddy Mimm's Distilling Co., and many more.

Traveled from TX to meet up with family in GA and although we only had a short stay, the home was perfect for hosting dinner and watching football with a backdrop of beautiful lake views in Oct. It’s much roomier than pics showed, beds were quite comfortable and the kitchen had every single thing one could need, more than any home we’ve booked in awhile. The large space downstairs had so many games and entertainment and next time we visit elderly family in beautiful Blairsville we’ll book in summer and use the outdoor amenities-and definitely stay longer. Bonus: evening visits by the firepit (get firewood at nearby Ingall’s Grocery) by a very sweet and well-fed neighbor pup named Dax. Everything was just perfect. Excited to return.

This was our second time to Nottely Lake and this house was by far better than last year! I was a little hesitant to book with it being a pet friendly property, knowing how hard pet hair is to remove but it was impeccably clean in all areas of the home! I especially loved the screens in porch (being screened in from below was a great idea) No bugs or spiders to deal with so it was very enjoyable to sit on the porch day or night! The beds were so comfortable the home itself was cozy and relaxing from the extra blankets to the organization and decor of the home! Only downside was the steep hike up and down to the dock, tricky to carry heavy coolers. But hey, at least we got our exercise in! I would definitely recommend this house and will be looking to stay here again in the future!

This is our second summer at the cabin, and once again, it did not disappoint. The cabin has everything you need inside and out for a perfect vacation. It is very clean and has a ton of space. We spent a lot of time on the dock and floating in the lake. We rented a pontoon one day from the marina and had a blast. This is by far our favorite summer cabin, and we can’t wait to go back next year!
