Deep Water // Lake Front- Mid lake near Port Royale Marina/Pelican Pete's
3 Bedroom/2 bath. On very deep water. This property can be rented for just a few days, by the week or months at a time. Offering a Direct Lake Front Lanier home ( Approx. 2200 Sq Ft). Beautiful view on the dock out to even deeper water and big open water. From inside the house you can see the dock and of course the water. It is about 180-200 feet from house to water and a straight path. Dock is a nice double decker dock and again very deep water. We can pick up the Wifi Signal with our cell phones and our laptop and they are your normal cell and laptops. Furnished with all linens, towels and kitchen utensils provided.
Property is in Gainesville but just on the other side of the big large Browns Bridge itself in Hall County. A perfect mid lake location where within a simple 100 yards by boat you are in the middle of big water and you can go north or south. - A small peninsula sticks out just enough to stop the heavy wakes of water so our dock ( and your boat) Do not rock all day, with "big open water" 100 yards away. Its pure good luck and we are thrilled with it as we have had other lake homes where the dock did rock all day. -Port Royale Marina ( & Pelican Pete's famous restaurant) is almost in sight and just around the corner for gas, fishing gear and very popular restaurant on the water as well as boat rental. -A ramp is within about one half mile of our lake home and easy to put in and motor over to our dock. -Our dock can be seen from inside the house and is in very deep water and if the lake is low, I simply push out the dock so we expect to be able to always to have good water, however be sure to inquire to make sure there is not some phenomenon going on with the lake to affect water levels. We have lots of experience with lake lots and we are very familiar with lake water levels and feel very confident in the good water we expect this house to have year round and even in drought years. We bought this house due to its deep water location and ability to move the dock out should the water level drop. -We take pride is providing accurate pictures to accurately represent the home and property as well as accuracy in the description of our home. We are not interested in misrepresenting anything and welcome your calls or detailed questions should you have a concern.
-Home has been recently remodeled and looks new and in excellent condition. Home is on a quiet street with a wooded lot.
-A Ranch style with all bedrooms on the upper floor on the same level you walk in, with a large bonus room/den area overlooking the lake). The master bedroom is on the lake side with a queen bed. BR#2 is on the lake side and has a Queen bed and BR#3 has a Full bed and on the front of the house. Downstairs has two large sets of double doors that opens out to the deck and lake in a very large den with fireplace and pool table. Also on this lower level is where you find the large kitchen/dining room table.. From the deck to the lake go down just 2 steps off the deck to walk to lake.
-Path to lake is straight. Although watch for the roots, a few small rocks and the fallen leaves can make it a little slippery as you walk down the path.
- Dock has electricity and is a double decker dock.
-The kitchen as mentioned is on this level along with a 2nd full bath and a completely separate laundry room with washer/dryer and room for lots of fishing gear, swim gear or luggage. This entire lower level is really where you spend all of all waking hours and because it is the lower level is stays nice and cool. There is still central A/C of course.
- Your boat if a reasonable size, can tie up on the side with no problems. If your boat is 23 feet or more in length please contact me to discuss boat parking options. We must limit large boats (as an example 35 feet or longer) due to weight, navigation that may be blocked and stress on dock or cables. - It is less than 200 feet walk from the deck on the back of the house to the lake at full pool.
- Owner is a licensed real estate agent in the state of Georgia, so let us know if you have any interest in purchasing real estate in the area.
Wifi signal is provided and television programing through Charter/Spectrum is provided for regular TV channels: ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN and Fox Cable News, some sport channels, and more. Each TV also comes with a ROKU stick.
There is ONLY one security camera (picks up audio and video). Its on the garage and it faces the driveway and picks up the street as well as the walkway to the front door for security. There is definitely NOT a camera or listening device in the home.
** As you can imagine on Lake Lanier some rent a property and have a large party. We like to be up front to let everyone know we unfortunately can not allow this due to possible excessive noise and the rental agreement we require to be signed covers this. While the county and our business license allows 9 persons total, we limit it to less than that overnight and during the day visitors are allowed if the owner is notified in advance but the limit during the day is capped at a total of 10 people. Hall county in March of 2019 allowed rentals in all residential zoned areas and they are strict and will crack down anyone not following the noise limits with no noise allowed from 10pm to 8am. The County does not allow parking on the street or grass.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washer/dryer, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Perfect Peaceful Place
First off the Host was so helpful. Mark went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay.
The home was clean and very comfortable.
The neighborhood is very quiet.
I enjoyed the outside setting of the home.
We brought our boat. The launch is close by.
The dock to the home is very nice to fish off or catch some sun.
We had a fantastic weekend.

Awesome Stay
Loved our week at the lake with our pups! House is located just around the corner from Browns Bridge and was so convenient to big water! We enjoyed our work views and jumping on the boat to go to lunch at Pelican Pete’s during the week. The dock and cove were awesome and neighbors were so friendly! Mark is great too!

Wonderful Week
Lake Lanier is one of the most beautiful and clean lakes that I have ever visited. Location and weather for the week we selected were absolutely perfect for swimming, boating, fishing, and hiking at nearby trails. Neighbors were a bit loud with their music but I guess that should be expected at times.

Fabulous family getaway!
Yearly family vacation with our adult children and pets. Mark was great to work with! Checked in with us via text during the week to see if we needed anything. Pictures are accurate-lake is beautiful! Loved watching the deer visit while we floated off the dock! House was very clean and had all the comforts so home, beds all comfortable. Convenient location-anything you need within 10 miles. Fresh bag of charcoal for the grill a nice extra. Check-in/out smooth. Would definitely stay again!

Awesome stay!
I stayed for 2 weeks with my family and the house and lake were great! The house is accurate depicted in the listing with great common space and kitchen. The location was perfect- close to boat rentals and stores. The path down to the lake is a little steep but was doable for young children (3,5) and older individuals (75).
Highly reccomend !

We sold our home and needed a place to stay while our new build was completed. Great house, quiet cove, great views and wonder host. The home had everything we needed while we were “Homeless”! Our two pups and son enjoyed their stay too. So glad we found it!

Excellent place and location! Loved it.
Mark was excellent to deal with. He even met us at the dock when we arrived and helped carry luggage up from boat! He was very attentive to our needs but never over-bearing.
The dock and cove was exactly what we were looking for. Excellent neighbors and the dock location exceeded our expectations. It’s a fairly easy walk to the dock (until you’re a bit elderly- which we aren’t yet :)). We have golden doodles and so did the neighbor, it was the best. Thoroughly enjoyed watching our family (including fur babies) have a great time.
House was as described, unique floor plan, but loved that the main space was downstairs with the lake level.
Sleeping is upstairs and the beds were fine. Nothing to complain about at all.
The kitchen meets the needs of a stay, however is fairly basic. Our needs were easily met.
We gave a 5 star on cleanliness, giving lenience since a long term renter had just moved out that morning.
HOWEVER... if you are looking for a lake stay, dock play area with beautiful views and just enjoying family time, I would recommend this location to everyone (especially with dogs and boat). EXCELLENT.

Wish we had more time to stay longer. A great house that is nicely updated and furnished and well maintained. It was exactly as advertised. Was in a very nice neighborhood and felt very safe. Had everything we needed. Mark was very easy to work with and communicate with. He answered phone and text quickly with any question. A level front lot and plenty of room to park. Had a very large deck off back of the house with plenty of seating. We really liked that we could see the dock and water from every room on the back side of the house. The kitchen, and very large family room with pool table, large dining room/kitchen table seating 8 people, laundry room and full bath were all downstairs on the lake level so you can easily walk onto deck and down to the lake. Location on the lake was so convenient to the big water and by water as close as 1/2 of a mile to Port Royale Marina for gas, supplies and boat rentals, and Pelican's Pete Tiki Bar and Grill that serves lunch and dinner. So loved the location to "big water".
Dock was in very deep water and had a beautiful view out to big open water. The walk to the dock had a nice path with wood chips and nicely trimmed and was an easy walk to and from the dock. Dock was a double decker dock and upstairs was an even better view of big water for just relaxing. The dock lower level was larger than most and had lots of room for our things. The dock is protected by a small peninsula that sticks out near the dock and so there are wakes from boats because they are blocked so the dock sits there quiet and level even on weekends with lots of boats going by. We are definitely coming back and will bring the whole family.
