Other Things to Note:
- Quiet time is 10pm - 8 person maximum -Parking is limited to 2–3 vehicles due to the steep driveway. Please follow the provided parking directions to safely navigate and allow space to turn around, as the driveway is steep. - Pets are not allowed. You will be charged $500 if you bring a pet. - No refunds for weather/natural disasters/power outages/other things that are beyond our control. -There are several stairs to get to the lake - if you have mobility issues please keep this in mind. -Our new hot tub is a 110-volt plug-in model, so it warms up a bit slower than the hard-wired ones. We drain and refill it after every guest, so if you’re checking in right after another stay, it may need a little extra time to reach full temperature — but it’s worth the wait!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Loved our stay! Other than a unique smell as you enter the front door, it was absolutely perfect for our desire to get away from the hustle/bustle of everyday life. Host was very responsive, home was fully stocked with everything we needed.

Easy check-in, host very responsive. Very clean for the most part, but there were a few areas of oversight and the front guest bedroom smelled “musty.” However, overall, would stay here again.

The property was fabulous. Very clean, very comfortable. Everything was as advertised. Even better. My mother joined us and she is elderly. It was wonderful having a main floor bedroom and walk-in shower to accommodate her needs. My family enjoyed fishing, kayaking, games, playing cards on the porch, morning coffee on the deck. We can’t wait to come back!

Lake vacation
Wonderful stay at this property. Everything you need. Small details like basket full of goodies in case you forgot.. coffee pods to get you started.. cabinets labeled to where kitchen items go.. light switches labeled.. screened in porch was great.. nice tvs in every space.. game room was great for my 12 year olds .. kayaks were great addition for dock.. a few suggestions. Umbrellas for the dock deck.. it gets hot up there… the driveway is super steep and I don’t know if all cars would make it down to the house and back up.. we had 4x4 truck so ok for us.. also, the stairs to the lake are super steep..might be difficult for people with knee problems or elderly as there are no rails .. thanks for having us in your beautiful home.. we had a blast!

Beautiful Lake House
Heather’s lake house was perfect for our trip to Lake Lanier. It was so peaceful, yet just a few minutes from everything we could need in town! You can tell the thought and care put into the home. The home was very clean, wonderfully decorated, and the view of the lake was amazing. We loved sitting on the porch overlooking the lake, fishing off the dock, and loved the game room. There were tons of fun family games we had a blast playing. The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed the coffee bar. We had everything we needed, and the kitchen was well equipped. Heather was very helpful and responsive. We are already planning a return trip in the summer!
