Perfect for our family vacation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely vacation home with our adult children and grandchildren. The layout suited us perfectly, the amenities were awesome and J and the property manager were very nice and quick to respond. We rented a boat from a nearby rental company for the whole time we were there, but honestly, we could have just rented it for half the time as the kids and adults had so much fun just enjoying the property!

Amazing for large groups
We had a large group and this home accommodated us perfectly. The kids were able to have their own space and then plenty of room when we all wanted to eat and play together. Really enjoyed our stay and hope to stay again in the future.

The Perfect Reunion House
This was the perfect hosting location for the annual reunion of our friends and their ever-expanding family units. With all families having their own bedroom and bathroom, and the close proximity to Atlanta's airport, this was an ideal location. Plus, you can't beat the lakefront location. If you're looking for a place where you can enjoy your time on-site, this is it!

Spacious house with an amazing view
Our group of 14 unrelated women appreciated the balance between plenty of personal space and common areas where we could gather comfortably. The view of the lake was stunning! Communication with the owner/property manager couldn't have been better. They were responsive and thorough. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Lake Front Home
Beautiful home on Lake Lanier. Our middle son was married near by in Buford, so we rented several houses for family and friends for the weekend. We had an amazing weekend and would definitely recommend this home to anyone.

Incredible Location, Warm/Welcoming Host
I can't tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at the lake house. The views were incredible, and the accommodations were phenomenal. J, the host, was a real pleasure to work with, and did a great job of getting us in and out, as well as addressing any concerns. All that, combined with the price point, makes this the perfect stay.

Fraternity reunion weekend
The house was perfect for what we needed: space for 14 college fraternities buddies to relax and spend quality time with each other. There were beds for everyone, great living and dining space, beautiful outdoor grounds, and a well equipped kitchen. The house manager communicated well and helped answer all our questions

Wonderful Christmas gathering place
The views of the lake were as advertised. We had 13 people in our group. There were bedrooms for everyone and plenty of bathrooms available. The lower level was a great recreational level. The main level of the home was a fantastic gathering place for meals or games. We enjoyed our stay very much.

This house was AMAZING! It is better in real life than the pictures actually depict. The host are were available throughout for questions. We had 6 families staying here, and everyone slept comfortably. They had toys and board games for kids of all ages. The sunrise and sunset views were amazing.

Perfect for our family gathering
The lake house served as a base of operations for celebrating my mothers 82nd birthday. She enjoyed watching the water activities from the first floor rear patio. Ample beds, baths, and amenities. Wonderful views of the lake, especially at sunrise. Owner was very responsive to all inquiries and maintenance requests. Great time had by all.

Amazing house with perfect lake views
This house was spectacular. So much space and room for family and friends to be together but also get personal space. The dock was relaxing as well as some of the best views of Lake Lanier. J smith and family were easy to work with, welcoming, communicative, friendly - all the things. I’d rent this place again for the house but also because of the hosts!!
