Great time at the Lake

We had a really great time staying here! Everything was clean, fully stocked and ready for us when we arrived. I’ve stayed at the lake for many years and this was the first who’s kitchen was fully stocked! For people with kids that’s a major plus! The owners responded immediately to any questions we had and were very helpful. We hope to stay here again soon!

About the host

Hosted by Tom & Kathy Wesley

We have had our vacation home on Lake Burton for over 30 years. We lost the original house to a fire in 8 years ago. We have completely rebuilt a new home on our old lot.

Kathy and Tom are both from Atlanta and have a home outside of Nashville where their daughter and her family live. Tom still works in Atlanta for the Wesley Company, a commercial real estate company. Tom's family has been in commercial real estate in Atlanta since 1890. Our son works with Tom as his partner in the real estate business in Atlanta. In addition to being the company administrator, Kathy helps our daughter with our two grandchildren. The whole family enjoys visiting and staying at the lake house regularly.

Why they chose this property

A lovely, rustic, contemporary home. Very nicely appointed, making the stay as much about treating yourself to a special experience as being at the Lake. There are very few vacation rentals on Lake Burton that are as nice as this one. When selecting the design, the owner wanted to create an experience that might compare to the Lake Districts of Italy, Austria, Switzerland and Germany.

What makes this property unique

Beautifully furnished and equipped. Located directly at the shore of Lake Burton. Beautiful views and surroundings, year round! Convenient for traveling to and from Atlanta, if you have to for any reason.
