We stayed here during August with four adults and four kids. We were very comfortable in this modern house with very nice furnishings. The AC was excellent. The house is perfectly situated, with a huge yard leading to the lake. There is an awesome firepit in the backyard, and we roasted marshmallows and made smores, the kids loved it. We took out the paddleboat, and enjoyed the lake. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. I would mention that there are plenty of insects around, and while they didn't bother us, they might bother other people.

Beautiful home, tons of room. only issue was that there were lots of ants; might just be a concern of being near the lake/mountains but could use some support with an exterminator

The place overall was fantastic. Lots of TVs beds etc. The protected cove for swimming and boating was phenomenal! Gentle slope to lake! Big backyard for kids to play. The only negatives were the street noise (nothing they can help) and lack of true living room for family gathering.

Our family had a wonderful time. The grandkids loved fishing from the dock and swimming as well as seeing the geese, the deer, the duck and the fox. Would definitely recommend for a family vacation. Hosts were wonderful.

We visited Gainesville this week and stayed in this home. It was impeccably clean and a great space for our family and extended family that was also visiting the area. The hosts were great and accommodating in every way. I would for sure stay in this home again!

We couldn’t have asked for a better rental house. Everything you would want was there and more. Even my grandchildren loved the roominess of the house and outside the fishing was great. The accommodations was great. The owner was great! Best house ever rented on the lake with gentle sloping property. Will definitely stay there again!

The house is great. The lake access & dock was on a quiet cove of Lanier with very little boat activity. We were able to relax and have fun.
My only complaint would be the house from the road. The house is directly off a main road.

Fantastic place to just get away and unwind. There yard for the kids to run around, space on the dock to hang out, and back porch to chill on in the evenings. This was a great place for our needs and made our weekend super easy.

This house is beautiful and just as advertised. The accommodations were top notch and the fact that their were enough bath towels for a small city was proof the owners really thought of everyone. This is exactly what a person thinks of when imagining a “lake” house. Loved it! Will be staying here again- and we just live 20 minutes away and it felt as if we had taken an 8 hour trip to a wonderful destination! 💕 contact with the owner is amazing and so greatly appreciated!

We absolutely loved the home. It was a very relaxing area bear many great places to visit and explore. Just one thing you will hear the occasional street traffic at night and trains but it did not impact our sleeping or live of this home. My family and I will be back.

Very much enjoyed our stay here. Was looking for a house that you could sit on the porch and watch the lake. No steep climb down to the water and this house was perfect. Had everything we needed

Thanks again

The house was great on a beautiful property. Kitchen was big and spacious. We really enjoyed our stay. We had to get used to only having 2 showers and the noise from the highway, but it was totally worth it.

Awesome lake front home
Owners hospitality is awesome very responsive and accommodating. We and our friends really enjoyed the property. It was restful and fun for the whole group. Deep water dock was nice to store boat and jet skis during our stay with boat ramp close by. House is nicely decorated and cozy, grille worked great and firepit was nice for smores by the water

Wonderful Family Vacation
This adorable home, in an ideal location, gave us memories to last a lifetime. The view of the lake from the back porch was breathtaking and a short walk to the dock made it easy for us to take our rented boat out in the water. The home could use a few more essentials like kitchenware, spatulas, additional garbage bags, comforters/blankets etc. Overall it was a wonderful stay and we look forward to returning.

Cute House - wish it had more
Really cute updated home. The porch and dock are the best part. The photos don't show the busy road and telephone wire right above the lawn. The house didn't have basic items (soap, lake towels, floaties,etc.) wish there was a little more to make this place stand out. Owner was responsive and helpful. There were ants everywhere. I know they are harmless but pretty gross when they are covering the kitchen counters

Southern Stunner!
Stayed here with a group of girls for a bachelorette weekend. The house was even better than the pictures, absolutely gorgeous. The rooms had a great layout with two beautiful bedrooms with fireplaces and the upstairs bedroom fit the group nicely with four beds, including a pull out trundle, which we discovered when we got there (so we did not need to use the pullout couch). Plenty of space and everyone was very comfortable. The interior decorating was absolutely gorgeous and I felt so at home. We had one issue getting into the property but we were able to call the owners and they came by right away. We called for a couple other items, and they were extremely attentive and responsive, wonderful people. I noticed some other reviews mention road noise, I didn’t find that to be as much of an issue as others. I highly recommend staying here!

Busyness Lakehouse
The lakehouse is nice and clean. It is not suitable for a quiet getaway. The continuing traffic from the main road making it very difficult to get a good night sleep.

From the Experts!
We are two families who own vacation rentals ourselves and this property surpassed our expectations. The property is both beautiful inside and outside. We (9) sat every morning & night at the long dining room table overlooking the lake, eating the best meals cooked in a chef kitchen while taking in the spectacular lake views. Deers greeted us in the morning and every good night in the evening. All 5 Kids had their very own hangout area and each had a bed of their own beds upstairs, never bothering adults with watching own programs downstairs. They ran around outside while the others fish on the deck. Greatest location too! 30 minutes to Dahlonega, Helen and Ellijay and in 5 minutes you were at the supermarket and the firepit was a hit. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home, it is a must stay!

Great place for a family vacation!
Beautifully renovated farmhouse was a great spot for our Thanksgiving vacation - plenty of space for two families and one Grandma. We enjoyed the lake view, amazing firepit and three porches. Loved the natural light throughout - especially in the master bath. We saw deer & got a short video of two bucks locking horns.
