What a great place to stay. We loved the back porch fireplace.
Beautifully decorated with every small detail to make guests comfortable. The property was beautiful and right on the lake. We lived the screened in porch as well as a kitchen with everything needed to cook meals.
The hosts have thought of everything at this property!
Plenty of water toys, towels, the kitchen is beautiful, and perfect for family gatherings!
Great lake house. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
We rented the property for Christmas break vacation with our kids. The property is close to several restaurants/grocery store. The house was very clean and the neighborhood was quiet. We enjoyed our stay!
It was exactly as listed. Property was beautiful,
clean, comfortable and had all the necessities. The back deck/covered porch was great, we really enjoyed it in the evenings! Would definitely stay here again!
Wife loved the use of the kayak, the house & property were well maintained and clean, located in a nice quite neighborhood. We really enjoyed the screened in deck.
We had a great stay over Thanksgiving in this lovely home. The house was perfect for our stay. The kitchen was well equipped and very accommodating. We enjoyed good food, movies and games. AND... we are so thankful our pets were able to join us. Thank you!
Great place for our family Spring Break. Cold outside, but the home was warm, cozy and fun. So many extras. The host was awesome, too. We hope to go back soon!
We loved loved this home! Absolutely gorgeous!
Give 5 Star rating for everything!! Will definitely come back!! Beautiful, clean, comfortable, water accessible, water toys, neighborhood all of it was excellent!!!
Great property!!! The location was on the lake and close to everything in town too. We enjoyed the large LR, screened porch and of course the dock on the lake. The bed in the primary was one of the most comfortable beds I had ever slept in.
Our family & friends had a great relaxing weekend here before heading back to school. I would highly recommend.
We had planed to bring our boat, but due to the rainy forecast, we decided to leave it at home. However, we all needed some rest and relaxation! We cooked, watched college football, scary movies, and enjoyed each others company. Had a great time!
Had to stay here again for our Christmas family time! It works out perfectly for my family and is very classy! The nicest place we have stayed that allows our furry friends! Parking is great and we had a handicap guest this time who had no problem getting around. I highly recommend this home. Fully functional kitchen with all utensils, pots pans etc... The host follows up immediately!
Perfect place in a perfect location on Lake Lanier. Absolutely everything was great and as expected. Our host Tara was always responsive, although we didn't need to reach out to her for anything of importance because everything worked as expected. The walk to the dock is pretty easy and we appreciated the electric cart for hauling our coolers up and down to the water.
Great value, great kitchen. Great host. Ample parking
Had a wonderful family weekend at this very pet friendly house with great privacy. Just know, it's a bit of a hike back from the dock up the hill. Also if you need complete silence to sleep, this may not be the house for you. All wood floors and no area rugs make the bedroom area a bit noisy. But please don't get me wrong, we had a great time at the property.
