About this house rental

This charming 3600 square foot cabin home is deceptively large! Renovated open floor plan concept with Great Room featuring tin ceiling from Peachtree Records in Atlanta! Pot Belly Stove can heat the entire home! Lake Lanier views from three levels including the screened in porch. 4 bedrooms, plus a bonus room and 3 full bathrooms, gives you plenty of room for the entire family and your friends! Quick access to GA 400 means a short ride to shopping, restaurants, and tourist attractions such as Dahlonega, Atlanta Motorsports track in Dawsonville, Cleveland and Helen. Features upgraded gig speed wifi with unlimited data!!!
The home is on the shoreline and nestled in the trees with a view of the lake from all three levels. The upstairs "crow's nest" deck is just off the King Bedroom and offers breathtaking morning and evening views of the woods and lake while you sit and drink your coffee or adult beverage in the covered siting area. The Screened porch off the main level provides views for the entire family, and the covered downstairs patio has seating for 12 around the patio table plus room for more. Stainless steel propane grill is ready to cook anything you imagine. You can also roast up some marshmallows around the fire pit and make up some s'mores for dessert. The home is located between two very convenient lake Lanier recreational parks, each with boat ramps. Nix Bridge to the South and Toto Creek to the North and only minutes away. There are several marinas nearby. You can rent a boat from one the close by marinas, or bring your own, (lake levels permitting)*. We also have a 4 person paddle boat at the dock which guests can use free of charge.
Very easy walk from the home to the lake.
The kids (kids of all ages) can enjoy the pro-level foosball table and the Wii system in the gaming room at basement level. 2 big couches and an ottoman give them plenty of room.

What an amazing place to celebrate our 50th anniversary with our family. The property was just as portrayed in the listing. It was clean and provided all that we needed. Check in and out were painless. Best of all was the host, Michael. He answered every question promptly and gave us lots of information about the area. We would definitely recommend it! Made wonderful memories there!

Rented it out with a group of friends for 4th of July weekend. House is not massive but also not too small, its just the right size for a small group at a reasonable price. The dock is also nice. We enjoyed our stay and the deck with the mosquito netting is great that way you can enjoy the outdoors at night without getting massacred by the mosquitoes. They also provide you with a binder with instructions on what is where in the house and how to use certain features, so you don't fumble around the house like a stranger. Owner was easy to talk to and is reasonable if your transparent with him. He even gave us an earlier check-in and check-out time that was originally agreed, which was great. Would book again.

We booked Michael’s charming lake house for a group of family and friends and not only and a great time but the house had all that we needed. Plenty of space to spread out with 2 back porches (upstairs screened in for mosquito magnets like myself) and a porch downstairs by the grill. The bedrooms were also spacious. The dock was a short walk from the house also had a rooftop area to hang out. The town is just a few miles away so I frequented the shopping areas (outlets!) and restaurants. Really a great location, to have both the lake and the things to do in town so close.
Thank you Michael, for making sure we were taken care of and your thorough information about the house including all the little touches that made it so charming. (the flameless candles were nice in the evenings)

We have stayed here multiple times and will definitely be back. The hosts have thought of everything you could possibly need or want. The location could not be better. You feel like you are in the middle of nowhere, and yet in less than 10 minutes you are in the midst of everything. This property is perfect for any group from 1 to 12. There is absolutely nothing negative to say about either the property or the hosts. You will not be disappointed if you choose this property!

Very easy to find. Clean with all amenities necessary to meet your vacation needs. Easy to contact host. Access to pontoon and lake a plus if you have boating experience. Easy access to restaurants and grocery stores. Highly recommend this wonderful vacation destination!!

What a great couple of days at the lake! We were in town for a few days for a family golf weekend. House was very clean with a new front deck and new approach down to the boat house. Plenty of parking (we had 4 cars and two smaller SUVs). Ice-cold AC in all rooms.
The house was very close to restaurants, outlet mall, golf courses (Chestatee and Hampton Golf Village), grocery stores, etc.
Michael was a gracious host and very available for any questions we had before, during and after our stay. He made our trip very enjoyable and hassle free.
We would definitely come back in the future.

We had high hopes for this trip and it was better than we hoped...what a fantastic stay on Lake Lanier, I need more stars for this review. Mike the house/boat owner did a fantastic job of communicating before and during the stay...the best of any rental I have had and it's not even close. The house is beautiful inside and really functional. You will love the screened porch and the large gas grill. We had 9 in our group which the house easily accommodated. If you have boating experience you will want to rent the pontoon. Mike does a great boat orientation and the boat is very nice and a far better value then any rental place on the Lake. Our whole group loved the property and the stay and we all want to return!!!

Great week at the Lake
Our stay at this lake property was amazing. We stayed for 4 nights with 11 people - there was plenty of space for our group. The kids had a great time fishing, paddle boating and catching fireflies! The adults enjoyed evening out on the screened in porch. We took advantage of the pontoon boat available to rent and had two great days tubing on the lake! Mike made sure we were prepared for the lake.
There were plenty of towels and beds and the kitchen was pretty well stocked. We had a great time.

Rustic , Clean and Comfortable
My family of 11 and I stayed in this rustic 3 level lake home for my son’s wedding in nearby Dahlonega. The owner was awesome! He responded to each message promptly. Check in was convenient and easy. We received a text each day to make sure we had no needs and that our stay was comfortable. He even came over when my niece accidentally unplugged the internet modem and we had trouble getting it to reset- turned out we just didn’t push the plug into the outlet well enough! The kitchen, living room area, and screened porch was beautiful and spacious as was the lower level game room.
The young men in the family enjoyed the fooseball table and the Wi. Ladies enjoyed the kitchen which had everything needed. The only inconvenient thing about the home was the bathrooms. There is only one bathroom on each level of the home. The main level bath is in the bedroom, so it was uncomfortable for guests not occupying that bedroom to use it. The bathroom on the lower level and the upper level were Jack and Jill bathrooms meaning there was a door from each bedroom into the bathroom and the door locks stuck or did not lock at times. I felt there was a lack of privacy and it was inconvenient to not have a “guest” bathroom that anyone could use on the main level. With that said, our family made it work. The carpet on the stairs to lower and upper levels could use some cleaning but was satisfactory. Recommend keeping upper king bedroom lights off as several small flying insects were attracted to the light and somehow got into the room despite glass doors never being opened. Recommend lower level for those who are hot because it was very well air conditioned. Upper level was quite warm, but ceiling fans and portable fans in the home kept it comfortable. The walkway to the dock was very nice. The dock and party deck were nice and well maintained. Sadly our family did not get to spend much time there due to wedding festivities. The neighborhood where the home is located was excellent, quiet and felt safe. Overall, the house was great and met our family’s needs. The host owner was just the best and nicest ever. I would highly recommend this home and would consider staying there again if we return to the area.

This is the third year in a row that our group has rented this home from Mike & Nikki. Great accommodations, super clean, outstanding hospitality and easy access to the lake. Having the ability to rent the pontoon is icing on the cake. Just perfect. We'll be back again next year. If your family or group of friends is looking for a lake getaway, look no further than this property. We highly recommend!

Pleasant Lake stay
We had a great time! We thought the actual property was even better than the pictures! We loved the quiet neighborhood, the screened in porch, great downstairs porch right by the grill and fire pit, being able to use water floats and paddle boat, and close proximity to stores. Fun place for a family of all ages!

So perfect that we left a gift! lol
The photos don't do this cabin justice. It was really cozy and homey, but felt like a nostalgic getaway for the books. It was literally 12 people of all ages and there was more than enough room that provided a perfect blend of isolation and cohesiveness. Mike (and his wife) were the greatest hosts. Readily available, yet not invasive, and a pleasure to work with. He went over and above my expectations, and still didn't seize to amaze me when he personally met those of our finicky 15 year old son. That really made the trip over the top. My only regret is I wish I would've rented it longer. Location is so ideal that everything you're used to in a metro area is right around the corner but you would have no idea from the cabin. Trust me, if you rent this cabin, you won't be disappointed. It's perfect for a holiday gathering, or a lake front vacation. Perfect.

Great 3 level house, perfect for the whole family
The layout was perfect for our group. Beds were very comfortable and we had enough towels and other supplies. The cookware was plentiful and good quality. The dock on the lake was a very relaxing place to spend time outdoors. We loved the fireplace! The owner communicated everything we needed to know.

Family weekend
This was a great place for a family to get together. We were up visiting our Daughters for UNG parents day. The cabin was clean and well stocked. We had a beautiful weekend and didn’t mind the rain on Sunday because because we had a great porch to just sit and relax to enjoy family. Mike made the process super easy from reserving to check out. Would definitely recommend staying at this cabin.

Great Place on the Lake
We weren’t there very much as we were in town for my daughter’s wedding but it was so nice and peaceful. Just a great place for my family to hang and relax at the end of the day. Everyone had their own space and we enjoyed the screened in porch so much.

Hidden gem of lake lanier
Everything about this place was top notch! Mike and Nikki went above and beyond to to ensure everything was perfect for our trip, it was our sons birthday and when we got there they had a cake and card waiting for him. The location was quiet and the cove was perfect for my kids to be able to go down and swim and fish off the dock! The house was stocked with everything you could need and the beds, couches everything was so comfortable and just made you feel at home there! This will be my go to for our lake Lanier trips from now on. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! Wonderful experience! Thank you Mike and Nikki
