Clarks Hill, Thurmond, Lake, Waterfront, Boat Dock, Fishing, Wildwood, near ramp

6209 Red Oak Dr. Appling, GA 30802.

Situated on an 1 acre waterfront acre lot in chigoe creek, minutes to Wildwood Park boat ramp and Ridge Road Boat Ramp.

This 400 square foot cozy cottage (white - one story) offers one room open to a full kitchen with flat top stove, microwave oven and refrigerator with ice maker, 1 Full/Queen Futon and a Full sized bed, 1 electric fireplace, walk-in closet, full bathroom with tub/shower combination. You do NOT see the water from the cottage (it does not have any windows on the lake side) but it is only a short walk to the water.

The parking lot is large enough to accommodate 2 boats and 2 vehicles.

We dredged the area at the dock and installed an aluminum covered boat dock in 2017 which has space for 3 boats up to 24' long and has an electrical outlet.

This is a cozy couples get away or a fishing retreat - it does NOT accomodate "gatherings, parties, groups, weddings, get togethers, groups of any kind exceeding the amount of people booked"... Minimum age 21.

A nice little spot

We needed somewhere close to my family at the last minute and we found this gem. It’s perfect for two people and a dog, if needed. It has a nice boat dock and plenty of parking for a couple vehicles and a boat trailer. Communication with owner was great and we didn’t have any complaints.

Keep looking

The place was not too clean, the fire place did not heat up the place to quick. I could have heated water faster on the stove the get it out of the faucets. No chairs. The couch had to be covered before sitting on it. The owner were nice and did come to take care of the TV problem. The bed needs to be replaced and all the beding. It is a good thing we are country folks. We handled it. The place was cute but needs a lot of work and cleaning. Oh yes the dock is all rotted. Be careful.

I was in town for a tournament, so it was just me staying at the house, but it was very peaceful. The homeowners were very easy to talk to you and answered all my questions, and sent me any info I needed. They made the stay easy and worth it

Super cute spot!

Loved the home, such detail inside! Disappointed with the cleanliness. But the owner was awesome in communicating with us. Also would recommend some instructions for the place like lights, appliances, tv remotes, etc. Overall we had a great time, the fishing was one of the best!

Had a quiet time. It was peaceful and enjoyed the dock. The walk to the lake was a little far, considering it was up a slight hill hauling fishing gear back up. Nice and relaxing

Nice Cottage perfect for fishing Tournaments out of Wildwood or just enjoying the lake.

Needs full set of pots and pans not enough for cooking things like spaghetti without being a little creative. power was not working at boat dock so had to take boat out of water everyday to charge batteries did not bring enough cords to do 400 to 500 ft. It is well located and a very nice place to stay. Futons were as comfortable as you could ask for. Great place to stay. I hope I can get the chance to come back and stay again for a longer stay.

Life is Better at the Lake

We enjoyed every minute of our time we stayed with the cottage. It was the perfect protection we needed for our National Disc Golf Tournament at IPDGA. The Lake made all the difference between the heat, humidity and sweaty armpits! The owners were incredible with everything!! Thanks for making us feel welcome!
