GORGEOUS WATERFRONT! Easy access to lake and dock! See why we r All 5⭐️ Reviews!

Escape to Burton Lake Escape. Enjoy beautful lake and mountain views while sitting on our screen in porch sipping a cool ice tea or glass of wine. Build a romantic, roaring fire in the large stone fireplace while watching a movie on the big screen TV. Prepare large family dinners while the kids swim in the lake. Picnic on the dock, float in the cool clean water of Lake Burton or take slow, easy rides around the Lake in a pontoon boat rental which you can park right at your own private dock! Enjoy a game of ping pong, cornhole or roast marshmallows at the inviting lakeside firepit as the ducks float by. Whatever you choose to do, come, relax and enjoy your stay at Burton Lake Escape.

Beautiful Location
This was our first stay at Lake Burton and this was an excellent choice! Marti the owner is very responsive to queries, the check in was easy and we loved the home. Easy access to the dock complete with kayaks and a canoe and Marti gave us details of hikes and local restaurants. Our dogs and family had a fun time!

This property is spacious & has wonderful views of the lake from every room. The kitchen is well stocked & open to family room & outside living spaces. All bedrooms had comfortable beds & wonderful lake views. Cleanliness was exceptional. I stayed with family. Everyone agreed, we would certainly come back to this special Lake House again.

Sad to leave- Fantastic home & location
We've stayed at many Lake Burton rentals, all of which we have thoroughly enjoyed. This one is, by far, the most welcoming. They left nothing out- well stocked kitchen & baths, dock & porch, bedrooms, games... So peaceful for me, fun for the kids. Thank you so much for sharing your home!

Wonderful Lake Views!
This rental provides wonderful lake views and sunsets on large screened porch with comfy rockers, gliders, and a swing! Nice views of the water from the dock too! The cabin was clean and comfortable and provided all our needs. Rooms were open and spacious with beautiful wide plank wood floors. Our hostess was friendly and accessible. Colorful autumn foliage everywhere! We hopefully will return! Great trip!! 🍁

Most wonderful vacation home
We love this home and location and have returned several times for family vacations. The host is very cordial, friendly, and helpful and has made her lake home so comfortable and inviting as well as beautiful that you will not want to leave. She also makes sure that basic supplies are available, including cooking supplies, condiments, bath accessories, and paper goods, and provides beach towels, rafts and lake toys, and even wood for the fire pit. I have no hesitation recommending it highly.

WOW. Amazing!
We ADORE this home. It's big, but cozy. Everything you could think of needing or wanting is there from a ping pong table to kayaks and canoes, and games. The well-stocked spices cabinet and great cookware were much appreciated and made us want to stay in all the time! The owner is SUPER nice and accommodating. Really, everything about her and the place is welcoming and warm. It's a gem and I will definitely be looking for future opportunities to stay here again!

Summer Fun
Our family had a wonderful week at Lake Burton Escape. The property has easy lake access. We enjoyed the canoe and kayaks. The kitchen had everything we needed and the grill was very nice. There is so much to do in the area, we were wishing for more time. We saw a bear crossing the road about 5 minutes from the house! Marti was great to offer suggestions and answer questions. We hope to return to Lake Burton Escape next year.

Perfect spot on the lake....
My mother, sister, and I rented Marti's perfect lake house for a quick getaway, and it was just what we wanted. I rent lots and lots of houses every year, and Marti was always fabulously quick to answer any questions that I had during our planning. The house is perfect. It sits right on the water on a lovely, quiet part of the lake. The water was clear (and wonderfully warm). The kayaks, the gigantic screened porch, the dock, the well-stocked kitchen....the place is an adorable gem.

Wonderful and Beautiful!
We stayed at the house for 4 nights with 7 people total. The house is gorgeous and comfortable. I couldn't have picked a more cozy place to stay. Amazing views of the lake and sunset. The cove is great for paddle boarding, kayaking, etc. as well. The beds are super comfy and the house had everything we needed, including a fully stocked kitchen. Beth is wonderful and gave plenty of details about the property, area, etc. We also rented a pontoon from Anchorage that we enjoyed cruising around the lake on. We will DEFINITELY be staying at this house again! :) Thank you Beth!!!!!!

Another stay at the relaxing, peaceful Burton Lake Escape
This was our second stay at the Burton Lake Escape house and we had another fabulous stay! We love the location (in between marinas and close to the Farmhouse Market and the recycling center), the screened in porch, the pet area is great for our golden, and the big TV is awesome for fun nights. Since our stay was at the end of the summer, the kitchen was well stocked with spices, coffee filters...thanks previous renters! I am thankful for the supply of dishwasher pods, clothes washer pods and trash bags. The house comes equipped with everything you need. We also enjoyed the kayak and spent most of our days on the dock and in the swing. It's a lovely setting. Will definitely come back and would recommend to everyone.

Awesome Weekend!
Our first stay at your Lake Burton home was everything and more than we envisioned. First, the house was immaculate and very well laid out. We had 6 adults and three children on the trip and there was plenty of room for us all. A couple of nights were cool so we enjoyed the outdoor fire pit and there were plenty of fish biting at the dock. The full length screened porch and seating areas really set the house off. We had friends, who have a home on the lake, and their family over for dinner and a music jam session on Saturday and, again, plenty of room for all. It was such a great time that we wouldn't hesitate going back given the opportunity. Everyone loved it. Thank you for sharing it with us.

The Perfect Choice for a Lake Vacation!
We just spent ten days in an idyllic setting on Lake Burton at the perfect house for my husband and myself and our son's family of five. "Burton Lake Escape" had everything we were looking for: a house that was roomy enough, yet still comfortable with a cozy home-away-from-home feel, and that's just what we found. The furnishings were very comfy... the two large sofas in the great room were big and soft, the beds were extremely comfortable, the dining room table had ample room for all of us, and all of it very clean and with a decorator' s touch. The kitchen was open to the living area and filled with quality equipment. But the best part of the house was "The Porch"...a huge screened room running the length of the upper floor which allowed us to feel as if we were in a tree house with birdsong and cool breezes and a way to feel like we were on the lake, even on the couple of rainy days we had! Attention to detail was evident in every room. The landscaping was beautiful... stone pathways, flowers, even an herb garden we were encouraged to use! Benches, swings, a hammock, a ping-pong table, a fire pit area, were all welcome amenities. We brought our boat and jet ski and had a perfect spot to tie up at the boathouse dock with room for parking the trailers on the circular driveway. Something I really appreciated was that the house was fairly close to lake level, so with my recent knee surgery, there were not hundreds of stairs to climb up and down! Finally, I must say we so very much appreciated being able to bring our doggies!!! We have stayed in other houses on Lake Burton, but this is the house we look forward to returning to! The owners were very responsive and kind! We loved it! Thank you so much!

This is what you are looking for . . .
Are you looking to relax? See the sights? Enjoy nature? Be comfortable? If so, do I have the place for you! Lake Burton Escapes is a wonderful escape from the daily grind. Whether you want to drink coffee on the back porch as the sun rises or enjoy an adult beverage on the back porch as the sunsets, this cabin has it all. Spacious, cozy, warm, open, and absolutely inviting. Whether you want to play table tennis, go kayaking, play a game, read a book, or use very good internet, you have a wide choice of options at the cabin. You can get away from everything in only about 20 minutes, but still have access to good food in Clayton and also be close to adventures in Helen, Clayton, Hiawasee, and North Carolina. And to top it off, the hosts are attentive (checked on us when we arrived) and hospitable (everything we needed was at the cabin). I could not recommend Lake Burton Escapes more!
