Nestled on the north end of Lake Lanier, our cozy ranch home provides a unique experience integrating lakeside living with modern design in a peaceful rural setting. The house offers 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a game room and comfortably sleeps 10-12 guests. The outdoor space boasts a covered patio, BBQ, outdoor seating and a huge greenbelt that leads you to the lake. A perfect retreat for families, couples and friends alike.
The lake is just a short walk from the house where the water provides a gradual entrance that quickly drops off to deep, clear water.
Rent a boat and/or jet skis at multiple marinas located in Gainesville. There is a public launch located just 5 minutes from the house.
Swim or bring your kayaks and paddleboards for quick access to our huge NO-WAKE cove.
You will have access to over 2200 sq feet and wide-open space with lots of privacy and plenty of places to relax. This is our personal home and our only rental, so we aim to provide a personal touch. If you have a special request, please let us know. We would like to make your stay as special as possible.

House Rules:
Absolutely NO parties or events are allowed. Please be respectful. Neighbors are close by, but very nice and keep to themselves. This is not a party house so please look elsewhere if you are looking to host a party or event of any kind. Reasonable fun and noise is absolutely acceptable.

Wildlife:
You may see our local wildlife wandering around. We have a variety of critters that love living near the water and woods. Please do not disturb them. You may see otters, turtles, woodchucks, birds, deer, frogs and more! While you enjoy the sights and sounds of nature (and the occasional rooster) please be respectful and leave them be.
Liability Waiver:
The terrain on Lake Lanier ranges from gentle slope to very steep. The flatter the walk, the shallower the water. The walk to the lake is a gentle slope. My parents, both in their 70s, handle the walk just fine.
Please be careful as it is a lake property with uneven surfaces, slopes & steps. Negligence may cause a slip and fall, and care must be taken, especially with younger children.
Also, you understand the potential dangers and risks associated with water activities and take appropriate safety precautions and assume responsibility for yourself and any consequences caused by your party. There is no lifeguard on duty so swim at your own risk. Children under 12 should wear a life jacket around the water.
