About this house rental

House, 4 Bedrooms, 3.5 Baths (Sleeps 11)

This remodeled Lake Lanier home that we call our Blue Heron Cove house is the perfect spot for your lake vacation. Located on a huge cove, this waterfront property has lake views from almost every room. The house comes with a private dock with party deck on a quiet area of the lake in Gainesville. Bring your boat (or rent one) and park your trailer in the spacious driveway.

The Blue Heron Cove house is well suited for family gatherings, a family reunion, 4 couples or even buddies in town for a fishing tournament or a golf getaway. The property is only a few steps to the dock and lake, and the grassy area gently slopes to the water. The professionally built outdoor kitchen and the fire ring make the outdoor spaces complete and enjoyable in all seasons. The house is convenient to shopping and restaurants in Gainesville. Lake Lanier Islands Resort and water park is about 25 minutes away.

There are 4 bedrooms (see below) and 3 full bathrooms and one half bath. There is one bedroom on the main level and the other 3 are upstairs. Two of the 4 bedrooms open to the upstairs deck and have wonderful lake views. You can watch people tube, ski or fish from the house or dock and enjoy the sunset as well. The main living area has large windows overlooking the lake. The kitchen and the eating area can seat 10 people comfortably for dinner. There is seating outside on the patio as well.

WI-FI is available. There are two flat screen TV's (satellite service); one on each floor.

On the dock, you can sit and enjoy the sun on the upper part of the large party dock or stay below for more shade or fishing. Either location allows for a great view of lake activities. Port Royale is the closest Marina. Balus Creek or Mountain View are the two closest boat ramps. If interested, we have kayaks and paddleboards available for rent.


We are a residential location and cannot accommodate a large EVENT. Family gatherings, couples, mature women or men's groups are fine and welcome. If you have more than 10 or 11 people, please inquire about suitability of space. We strive to maintain our home in pristine condition and have found party events are not in keeping with the vision for our vacation rental. Thank you for your understanding.

**For additional sleeping capacity (3 adults), you can add the guest house for an additional fee, which has a king and queen bed with private bath. Inquire with owner for details.

***For gatherings that call for double or triple the space, check out our sister properties only 1 door down VRBO# 427011 or next door VRBO# 2784449.***

Day 1 was not good in that we were told we could check in at 2 pm, but shortly after the landlord/realtor arrived to come inside and take pics of broken shades. Then the lawncare crew arrives. Extremely loud and asking my parents to go inside so they can blow the grass they are edging around the property. This should have all been done prior to our arrival. I then had to clean a pile of trash off the shoreline, busted floats, alcohol bottles, a tampon....gross. We informed the realtor to be sure the grill was fiull of gas, it was, but it hadnt been cleaned in years, it took us an hour to take it apart and clean it before we could light it and then when we tried the stove inside there was no propane. The stove didnt work at all. The next morning we called the renter and they said they were aware the propane was low & switched the reserve tank on for us. That also should have all been done before arrival. Last thing we did not care for was that the renter said they own the house next door and it was vacant so her family decided to stay there & it truly felt as if we were being babysat on our vacation that we spent a lot of money for. The property is beautiful and this cove & dock are perfect for a great time on the lake. The following days were very enjoyable and I would recommend renting this gorgeous property, I would just ask the rentor to have these things managed better and ensure the rentee does not have all of these frustrations on day 1. arrival. s e

This property is well maintained and the very convenient to shopping and restaurants. The view is amazing and we enjoyed some beautiful sunsets. It was an unforgettable week for celebrating my husband’s 50th birthday! We hope to make it an annual tradition.

We have stayed in this home once before and found the home to be well maintained and perfect for our growing family. Ideally located very near where I grew up so that our family can use the spillover space at the rental to ease some of the hosting our Mom used to have to do.

We really enjoyed our stay! My grandmother called the house a mansion. My mom said if she could own the house, she'd never leave.
