About this property

Lake views galore from balconies right on the lake and drought-proof deep water

The owner of Admiral's Retreat and Admiral's Club (both on Lake Lanier), Admiral's Corporate (Windward/Alpharetta), and Admiral's Outpost (Amelia Island) is introducing his latest high-end vacation rental, Admiral's Mountain Lake Chalet.

Take the most scenic route to the most secluded of vacation spots, and forget about the rest of the world for a while. Immerse in nature's music, peace and quiet in this very private venue. You will be isolated from neighbors the moment you get into the Chalet until you check out. You will be taken off your feet by the Chalet's architecture, floor plan, and many amenities, games, and water sport gear, etc. This is a treat to give yourself. As a hint, every time I enter that place, I still say wow and smile.

Romantic life at the lake! is what defines this beautiful chalet with 4 finished levels. Every level is well equipped for your complete comfort. There is a wood-burning fireplace and lake view on every floor. Enjoy nice breeze, aqua blue waters, beautiful sunsets. Just a relaxing atmosphere to totally unwind and relax for a change.

You will love the architecture of this 4-bedroom/3-bath chalet, the high ceilings, coziness and privacy of every floor. Perched within mountains and overlooking beautiful Lanier, this magnificent chalet is set right on the water channel with deep. With its 4 levels of living space and wraparound lake views, the Chalet offers privacy and equal share of its many facets to our guests.

Enjoy your jet ski and boat knowing that you can dock whenever you get tired. Hardwood floors, granite countertops, a huge master suite, finished basement, 2 kitchens, 3 family rooms, 3 fireplaces, 2 covered front porches, 4 covered rear decks, and intricate fireplace stone work are just some highlights of what the builder of this magnificent home achieved in a unique and stunning style. Nothing was spared to make that home stand out among vacation rentals. Enjoy two large bedrooms on main & full bath. First level basement has 2nd kitchen/bar, a large King bed with full Bath. The view is magnificent, combining lake and mountain in this quieter area of northern Georgia.

House is beautiful!
We loved the house, it was really beautiful! Excellent location. Everything was wonderful. The size was perfect as we had a large group. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes and utensils. Plenty of linens and a nice washer and dryer. We had 10 women and never ran out of hot water for the showers. The view is beautiful and watching the sunrise on the lake was huge bonus. Would love to be there when the weather is a little warmer.

Great family propertt
I stayed here 6 years ago for a bachelorette, and the house was honestly bigger and better than I remember. Everyone had plenty of space. Plenty of fridges. We had perfect weather, so we used the water toys every day. I didn’t remember the stairs to the dock (that were a great source of exercise). Everything was great. We also rented from his lake toy inventory and no regrets.

Huge house on multiple levels
The family enjoyed our stay but we did have issues that I should have considered beforehand. The house is 5 levels and sits up on the side of a mountain. To get from the main level to the wonderful footing dock is 117 steps. So it is not for people who have mobility issues or for families with small children. The kitchen is very well stocked so you will not have any issues cooking whatever you want. There was an issue of the BBQ grill outside deck main level. Cooking on it PV frate huge flames because the top did not fully close so we burnt our meal one night and didn’t use it again. The main levek deck was our family’s favorite. The living room on the main level was huge and quite comfortable for all. The top master bedroom has a serious air conditioning issue where it would cut off after 2 hours. Handyman came with NO TOOLS and didn’t fix it. Many of the light fixtures were burned out. Limiting a guest to a small amount of garbage in a large house was really far fetch. We had to be creative in our waste products. The location is relatively close to Dawsonville where nothing you need will be found. Dahlonega is a short trip as well as Helen.We had a hard time finding a real beach where the little ones could get in. One feels like you are deep in the mountains at the top of the tall trees. Next family vacation I will be more diligent about steps and how far it is to the water.it just wasn’t the right house for us but for adults and teens , it would be great.

We had the best family vacation at this house. Perfect for our large group. They did have lots of levels in the house and many stairs to the dock. Our 83 year old mother was still able to join us several of the days. We are hoping to stay again soon. Response time from owner was fantastic with questions.

This house was very accommodating for our family of 9. The large porches were a great gathering place. Quite a few steps to get to the boat dock, but once down there it was a very nice place to hang out, swim and dock our 26’ boat. Loved the use of the kyacks.

Great house with plenty of space for all. The stairs were a great way for all of us to get our daily workouts - so no complaints from us! Young adults enjoyed the pool and foosball tables, and all of us enjoyed the dock, the dock's sun deck provided the ladies a nice space for afternoon cocktails. House is in close proximity to grocery stores, restaurants, outlets, wineries and the towns of Dahlonega, Helen, and Babyland General in Cleveland for the littles to see the birthplace of the Cabbage Patch kids! Thank you Ray for a great 10 days!

It is a beautiful place with 35 steps in the house and 80 Steps down to the dock. Unfortunately this was a was a little too much for some of the members of my party. The view of the lake is blocked by the trees. Nice location close to Helen Georgia And white water rafting.

Family Birthday trip
This is a beautiful property complete with everything you could possibly need. It is spread out over 4 floors so is perfect for those who would like to have adult areas and kid areas. It was so nice to have the 2 kayaks and a paddle board included with the rental of the house. I didn’t think we would be able to use them in April, but the weather was in the high 70s and the young adults managed to enjoy them without getting wet. We also rented a pontoon boat from Ray one day of our trip and enjoyed a beautiful day exploring the lake and also enjoyed being pulled behind the boat(once again without getting too wet). My husband had knee replacement surgery in December and my daughter has a stress fracture in her foot, so the stairs were a bit of a challenge, but we were able to drive to a public dock that had no stairs and get picked up by the boat from there. I had read the reviews, so I was aware of the 85 stairs to the dock. Going down was not so bad, but getting back up was a killer for those that were out of shape😬

Fantastic Lake Getaway
The home was honestly better than I expected! Very well equipped with anything we could possibly needed. We had 8 kids/teens & 6 adults. We had plenty of space to spread out for privacy, but also many different areas for us to all come together. Definitely somewhere I would recommend staying! There are a lot of stairs in the home, but with two good size bedrooms on the main floor, even those with physical limitations would have a place that was easily accessible. The owner was great in communicating with us before our arrival & during our stay.

Beautiful Quiet Retreat
The Admiral's Mountain Lake Chalet was perfect for our group of 14. Ages ranged from 30 to 80 years old. The steps were a challenge for some, but we managed quite well as the younger ones helped the older ones. We were all here for a meeting on Sunday and an excursion to Brasstown Bald on Saturday so the location was perfect for us. Everything we needed was available as stated in the lease agreement so we had no problems cooking meals for the group or individual meals otherwise. Overall a great retreat place. The younger ones enjoyed the kayaks in our free time.
