Lake Chatuge

Life on the Lake

Tranquille Resort sits in a quiet cove on the shores of Lake Chatuge — a 7,000-acre TVA reservoir nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. With over 600 feet of private shoreline and a two-level dock, the lake isn't just nearby — it's your backyard.

Lake Chatuge is one of North Georgia's most scenic and uncrowded lakes — far quieter than Lanier or Blue Ridge. The surrounding mountains reflect off calm waters, and on summer evenings the sunsets paint the sky in shades of gold and rose. Whether you're casting a line from the dock, paddling through the cove at sunrise, or cruising on a pontoon, the lake is what makes Tranquille special.
