Wedowee Creek Retreat
Wedowee Creek Retreat is a lake house plan with porch, offering 2,120 sq. ft., 3 bedrooms, and 2 1/2 baths. A strong fit for porch combined 400 sq. ft, screened porch, and covered porch.
2-Car GarageHow I designed this plan.
I designed the Wedowee Creek Retreat as a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath craftsman cottage that delivers 2,120 square feet across two stories with space for a boat below. If you live on the lake and need a home that handles both your family and your watercraft, this is the plan I would build.
The main level holds 1,361 square feet with a vaulted family room, vaulted kitchen and dining room, and an open layout that keeps the whole family connected. A stone fireplace anchors the living space, and the first-floor master suite gives you privacy on the main level. Nine-foot ceilings keep everything feeling airy.
Upstairs, 759 square feet adds bedrooms and flexible living, and the optional boat garage on the lower level is the detail that lake homeowners always wish they had planned for. Over 400 square feet of combined porch space gives you outdoor living on every level, including a screened porch, covered porch, grill deck, and stoop. The optional 2-car garage fits within the 47-foot-4-inch by 54-foot-4-inch footprint on a sloping lot.
This is a home designed from the ground up for waterfront living where the boat is part of the family. The Wedowee Creek Retreat plan is available for $1,495. Similar lake-oriented plans include Butler’s Mill, Autumn Place, Smoky Mountain Cottage, and Wolf Creek.

Before you buy.
What is included in the Wedowee Creek Retreat house plan set?+
Each plan set includes dimensioned floor plans for all levels, front, side, and rear elevations at 1/4" scale with notes and dimensions, foundation plan (basement standard; slab and crawlspace available for an additional fee), and roof plan. Available as a PDF plan set ($1,495) or editable CAD files ($1,950). Electrical plans are not included because they are customer-specific and finalized on site with your builder and electrician after framing.
Can the Wedowee Creek Retreat plan be modified?+
Yes. Modifications are one of the most common services we provide. Our in-house design team handles all modifications directly. Common changes include adjusting bedroom count, resizing rooms, changing exterior materials, or adapting for a specific lot. Typical turnaround is 2 to 4 weeks.

Does the Wedowee Creek Retreat plan require a structural engineer's stamp?+
Stock plans do not include a professional engineer's stamp. Many US jurisdictions require a licensed engineer in your state to review and stamp the plans before permit submission. Check with your local building department before purchasing. This is a standard industry practice and is not unique to Max Fulbright Designs.

Every plan in the Max Fulbright Designs catalog is drawn by Max himself.

Yes. Max Fulbright Designs has delivered more than 12,000 plans to homeowners and builders in all 50 US states and Canada.
