About this property

Burton Surf Club - Lakefront with Dock 5 Bedroom Renovation - Sleeps 8

This 5 bedroom home is the ultimate family getaway. Perfect for 2 families with children, with plentiful yard space (3/4 acre lot), private dock on the tip of a quiet cove, and a 2 block (easy) walk to Anchorage Marina and Boat Dock where you can rent a boat or wave runner, use their boat ramp, or just get ice cream or a sandwich! Using my hospitality skills learned working in St. Barth's, we have furnished and stocked this home for comfort, anticipating all your vacation rental needs. The kitchen is fully stocked with new dishes, cooking bowls and utensils, pots, pans, sharp knives, serving pieces, coffee choices, and even an ice cream maker. The beds are all comfortable and have new linens, and extra blankets for those chilly Fall nights. Besides 5 bedrooms (3 kings, 6 bunks,) the screened porch is a sleeping porch. Use the beds as couches during the day, then sleep outside with the crickets and frogs at night. Enjoy 4 porches: main level screened porch, main level covered dining porch, main level deck w bird feeders and flowers, and upper level deck perfect for star gazing at night. We have a huge wood burning fireplace in the family room, and an outdoor firepit with chairs in the back yard. Four bedrooms and two baths are on main, while the basement has a large bonus room with sectional, game/puzzle table, 5th bedroom, and hall bath. The home has every game imaginable including Catan, Chess, Backgammon, Jenga, puzzles, and more. We also have a library of books we, and the previous owners, have enjoyed. There are multiple dining options on main: 6 person dining table, 6 person outdoor dining table, 4 bar stools; and 6 person table in basement bonus room. Plus, we offer 4 bicycles, 2 Stand Up Paddle Boards, life jackets, wet suits, badminton/beach tennis, corn hole, and fishing rods for your use. The house has the fastest fiber Wifi and 4 Smart TVs with Apple TVs (in living room, master bedroom, guest bedroom, and basement bonus room) with Netflix, Prime Video, and Hulu. The stainless appliances are all fairly new. We provide plenty of fluffy white Turkish cotton bath towels and beach towels. The location is fantastic, one hour and forty minutes from Buckhead Atlanta. Plus, just 5 blocks away is Farmhouse Market (formerly Burton Grill and Grocery), my second favorite restaurant in Rabun County, offering gourmet take away and sundries. My favorite restaurant, Fortify, is a 12 minute drive to downtown Clayton and rivals fancy Atlanta farm-to-table venues. My favorite store is White Birch Provisions in Clayton. They have prepared meals and all sorts of gourmet items, including our own honey (Northwood Honey). That have great coffee and breakfast items, too. You are going to love Burton Surf Club. This is our second home that we are sharing, so please take care.

All the comforts of home +

Everything about Burton Surf Club was warm and welcoming, from the comfy and plentiful beds to the thoroughly stocked kitchen! The coffee station was everyone’s favorite, as we could each personalize our morning beverages. Our family cooked some great meals, played board games, and relaxed on the day beds in the screened-in porch. Just as promised, there were bikes and stand-up paddle boards in perfect shape (they all looked new) in the basement. Anchorage Marina, where we rented and docked a pontoon boat for the weekend, was a short walk away. We were as comfortable as we would be visiting friends or family. Burton Surf Club was the perfect site for our annual Father’s Day/birthday weekend celebration for my husband and son.

Nice Place

Our family gathered for our annual vacation. With 2 teenagers the location couldn't have been better. If you are an outdoor person this is the place to be. We did zip lining, mountain biking, white water rafting, hiking, swimming, boat rental and paddle boarding. The house was well stocked with snacks and other esse3ntials. We thoroughly enjoyed the week.

Lake Getaway!

We had a great time! The owner was very attentive and helped with any questions. The house is so comfortable ( especially the porch area) . Everything is located within walking distance for renting boats and jet skis to local groceries and restaurant. Enjoyed paddle boarding off the dock and sitting on the upper deck in the evenings. Lake Burton is beautiful! We definitely will be coming back!

Long weekend stay

Initially double booked causing a bit of chaos. Property nice but away from water making it difficult to get paddle boards in and out of the water up to the house. Nice porch area and clean property. Owner provided snacks and was flexible on hours.

Amazing!

The home was stunning...our children and family had countless games to play with and entertainment throughout the home inside and out. This home was so comfortable, each bed, couch and the porch was made up for an afternoon read with one of their many books to choose from!

Fun lake house

Spacious house for our family of seven. Easy lake access and paddle boards were a nice amenity. Checkin was haphazard and WiFi a bit slow but a very enjoyable stay.

About the host

Hosted by Christy Harris Harralson

Host profile image
I am a Realtor in Atlanta with Beacham and Company. I manage all of my properties myself. I have 5 properties with vrbo and they are cross listed. Years ago, after selling a company, I worked at a small hotel in St. Barthelemy, FWI and developed a passion for hospitality. My husband and I have 4 children and 2 dogs and share our vacation homes with others to help cover the costs. Look me up - my web site is my name, ChristyHarris.

Why they chose this property

This property is the perfect location for us, coming from Atlanta. It's so convenient, 1 hour and 40 minute drive from Buckhead. Also, we can walk 2 blocks to the Anchorage Boat Dock and get a snack, or rent a boat. And it is 4 blocks to Burton Grill and Grocery. We love that it is lake front, but on a very quiet tip of the cove. We are the last house on the cove and appreciate the calm and privacy. It's not deep, but perfect to launch our paddle boards. The house has its own dock and a very large yard for badmitton or volleyball.

What makes this property unique

Besides location, location, location ... 2 Stand Up Paddles Boards, 4 cruiser bikes, lots of games, fishing rods, and a fully stocked kitchen better than any other vacation home you would rent.
