Beautiful cottage in Murray Cove
My family of 5 (kids ages 12, 10 & 8) just returned from several days on Lake Burton. The Freeman's cottage was perfect for our family. Very well equipped with everything we needed. We ate most meals on the boathouse! We used the paddle boards every day, and enjoyed playing games on the cozy front porch. This was our 7th summer staying on Lake Burton, and although first time staying in this cottage, it will not be our last!

Perfect Family 50th Bday
Our family had an amazing time at the lake, celebrating my wife’s 50th birthday. Everything at the property was on point so that we could completely relax, even down to the utensils in the kitchen, which allowed us to take turns cooking meals for her.

Fantastic
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Freeman Cottage. Not only is the home beautifully decorated and maintained, Laura and Matt made sure everything about our stay was easy and relaxing. The lake front area was perfect for adults, our teenagers and younger cousins who visited during the day. The only regret we have is not staying longer!

A relaxing getaway!
What a gorgeous vacation home you have! Everything is new and beautifully furnished and decorated. We loved the breathtaking view from just about anywhere in the house. The kids enjoyed swimming at the dock and the sunsets of the upper deck. I can't wait to come back soon. Thank you for your hospitality.

GREAT!
My husband and I enjoyed a lovely view, a clean and uncluttered cottage that was extremely well decorated, as well as hikes to waterfalls and a trip to Fred Hamilton Garden. This last was an informal garden filled with blooming rhododendrons and dogwoods. It was a perfect vacation.

Great Lake Burton Rental
We love this Lake Burton Cottage. We have rented from the Freeman’s 3 times. Perfect for our family. Outdoor shower and bunk beds are an added bonus. The Freeman’s are the best to rent from. See you soon! The Goodsells

Cozy Lake Burton cabin
We had a wonderful trip. House was perfect in every way. Kitchen was well stocked. Loved the comfortable decor. All the beds were super comfy, Outdoor shower was an added bonus! The owners, Laura and Matt Freeman, are delightful! I wish I could keep this place a secret or win the lottery and buy it. We will be back next year! Thanks! The Goodsell family

Gorgeous cottage with beautiful Lake Burton view!
My friends and I stayed at Murray Cove Cottage for a wedding at Lake Burton. The house is absolutely lovely and we loved relaxing on the dock. It was exactly what we were looking for when trying to find a place for the weekend. Whether sitting in the house with the large windows, sitting on the porch, or hanging out on the dock, the view was incredible. We will certainly be back! Thank you for sharing your home, Matt and Laura!

Absolutely Fantastic!
Matt & Laura, Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful property with our family! The lake is just beyond gorgeous and peaceful. We loved every moment of our stay. The cottage was beautifully appointed, well-stocked, and with more than enough room to accommodate our group of 5. We really appreciated your hospitality and will look forward to returning next summer to explore more of the area. We would highly-recommend this property to anyone in search of a lake vacation!

Wonderful Fall Break Getaway
We had a wonderful long weekend at Murray Cove Cottage. The house was so beautiful and the view of the lake was amazing from any room in the house. Our girls loved spending time out on the docks. No luck catching any fish, but they had a great time trying. We loved meeting the Freemans. They were very helpful and wonderful hosts. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. We had such a relaxing weekend. We hope to be back again soon.

We love The Cottage!
This is one of our favorite places! My wife and I were among the first to stay in The Cottage when the renovations were nearly complete. Matt and Laura included many special touches — see if you can find the repurposed flooring from the old front porch. The views from the home and the dock are spectacular. The dock is close enough to watch the kids play in the water. The Cottage is perfect for couples, families, weekend getaways, and a cocktail or two. Lake Burton has a sort of New England charm that you must see for yourself.
