The Urban Retreat of Reynolds Lake Oconee within Great Waters is a luxury vacation cottage located on a quiet cul-de-sac in one of Reynolds' resort communities. Positioned on a shaded lot, it all starts at the welcoming front porch leading into an open family area and ends with a wall-to-wall view of Lake Oconee. You have a view of the lake from every room in the home! Urban Retreat lives up to its name with all the modern conveniences without compromising any of its Southern charm. A short walk away is the Great Waters Marina and Waterside Village, where you will enjoy access to the pool, tennis courts and beach area.
This recently renovated Great Waters home features an open floor plan and coveted views and beautiful sunrises of the lake. Lake Oconee, Georgia's second-largest lake, has over 19,000 acres of boating, fishing and kayaking... just steps away from the back door. The main level features a spacious kitchen with white cabinets and granite countertops, a farmhouse sink and appliances.
For the coffee connoisseur, the home features a Cuisinart coffee maker and a coffee grinder for a fresh ground bean offering. Plenty of cookware (including two slow cookers) and serving ware will accommodate a romantic dinner for two or a buffet for a hungry family. The dining table will seat six, and two extra counter-height barstools are available also. A wet bar ensconced behind cabinet doors provides a delightful nook for preparing those adult beverages for a sunset cruise or relaxing in an adirondack chairs on the patio.
The living area features a comfortable sofa, oversized armchair, and a fireplace with a wall-mounted flat screen TV - perfect for game days or movie nights. A reading corner is accented by two armchairs with ottomans, and both within easy viewing of another wall-mounted flat screen TV.
For larger groups, this secondary area to sit back and relax, read, or binge watch Netflix is a thoughtful addition, and it also offers unparalleled views of the Lake Oconee! For those who want some fresh air and a closer waterside view, head out the back steps and watch the sunset from the private swing in the backyard or enjoy a game of croquet from the provided set. If you prefer to grill out, do so in style on the Big Green Egg grill located on the back patio. Also on the main level are a powder room and a laundry room with a utility sink and a full-sized washer and dryer.
Upstairs boasts three generously sized bedrooms, each with a private bath and step-in travertine shower! The master suite is a retreat all its own, with a king bed, flatscreen TV with streaming options, and lakeside vistas. Its ensuite bath provides a walk-in closet, custom storage cabinets, double vanity, jetted garden tub, and step-in travertine shower. Guests will find it easy to retire here for the evening but hard to leave in the morning! The first of two guest rooms provides sleeping for up to four with double queen beds, a flatscreen TV with streaming options, and closet storage. The private bath features a double vanity, ample cabinet storage, and a step-in shower.

Thoughtful design and amenities at Urban Retreat make this home-away-from-home feel like a true luxury vacation experience. With comfort throughout its two stories, guests may not feel like venturing beyond the front porch. However, if you are curious to check out local life, the Great Waters community is just minutes away from Harmony Crossing, home to some of our favorite cafes, restaurants, and boutiques.
