Convenient and close to lake
The house fulfilled our need for a weekend stay, while attending an event. The host made sure that we had everything that we needed and the deer were entertaining.

Perfect family reunion spot!
We went to celebrate my grandmother's 93rd birthday(she lives nearby), and had the added bonus of having many different family members that are disbursed throughout the east coast come together here. The kitchen size was great for many people to be in helping cook a meal, lots of seating inside and outside for our bunch, and the amenities are a fantastic bonus. Swimming and fishing off the dock, kayak and paddle boat trips, taking pictures on the water at susnset. Its close to lots of things including Margaritaville which was a fun day trip. The main bedroom bed was very comfortable, as was the day beds in the den. The water pressure was great, which is important for me at the end of the day. The laundry room was spacious, and the coffee bar was nice to have. Host was very responsive and great to communicate with. Lots of nice decor/plants, it definitely felt homey. All of my family loved the house and property and made several comments about how great it was that I found it for our occasion. 10/10 would stay again!

Great time on the lake
We greatly enjoyed our stay. The house is well decorated, and has everything you need. I appreciated the ceiling fans in each room and the easy to operate central air that kept the house cool in the Georgia heat. The kids enjoyed the foosball table. It was so nice to have everything we needed provided to enjoy the lake. The paddle boats, canoe, kayaks, noodles and floaties made it easy to get out and have fun. I was thankful to not have to pack those things or rent them. The host Michelle was very nice, responsive and attentive. I would stay here next time I come to Lake Lanier.

Great Place to Unwind
House was in a great location; a quiet waterfront home just minutes from shopping and dining. The house was just what we were looking for in a weekend getaway. There were deer roaming everywhere which the kids loved. We would gladly come back.

We had a great time!!
We loved sitting on the dock in the evenings. Kids swam, used the paddle boats to explore, deer would come and eat every morning and evening! Great location and kids loved the Foosball table.
