A great place to stay

This is the second time we stayed at this house- it is a great place- beautiful scenery, everything available that you could possibly need, and very clean. Also, it is close to downtown Gainesville and some beautiful walking trails too.

Great house and easy access to surrounding areas

The house was more than we expected. It was clean, beautifully appointed, and filled with everything we needed for a quick weekend away from the stressors of day to day life. We loved using the dock and kayaks, just a short walk down to the lake. The games in the garage were a lot of fun, especially ping pong and the poker table. And, the front yard was a perfect location to throw the football or play bocce ball. The kitchen had great pots and pans (a frequent issue at other rentals), so cooking meals was easier. The beds were comfy with super soft sheets and amazing black-out window treatments. If we had to point out any cons, the 2 things that came up are creaky floors above the master bedroom and close proximity to neighbors. But, those issues were so small compared to all of the great things the house has to offer. Hope to be back soon! Thanks, Lara, for sharing your home!

The most perfect getaway

When booking a place to stay on Lake Lanier, we wanted a beautiful retreat where we could relax, unwind, and enjoy family time. This house exceeded our expectations in every way. It is even more beautiful in person. Every detail is thought of - from the spacious gameroom and board games to the well-stocked kitchen to the breathtaking outdoor patios, fire pit, and dock. The beds so comfortable, and the space is just perfect. We barely left the house because we were just so happy there. My husband and I loved it, and so did our kids who vary in age from 6 to 16. The hosts are thoughtful and easy to reach. If you’re looking for a quiet lakeside getaway with all the luxuries you can imagine, this is your place. I look forward to returning again.

GREAT GETAWAY AT A BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY

The property was picture perfect. The inside of the house felt like a cozy cottage and was well stocked with everything you could need. The pictures on VRBO were very accurate. The view in the back yard was amazing. In the morning and at dusk deer would come in the back yard and graze. It was the perfect getaway to disconnect and recharge. We brought our boat and really enjoyed the lake too. Owners were great too! We would highly recommend!!!

A relaxing weekend on the lake

My wife and I stayed here for the weekend and really enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and just as nice as the pictures show. It is located about 15-20 minutes drive from any major development so the area is low traffic and peaceful. The kitchen was well stocked which was nice for us because we cook at home most of the time. I plan to be back in the Gainesville, GA area again in a few months for work and will stay here again.

Best lake cabin for a relaxing vacation!

Lara and Bill’s lake house is one of our favorite rental homes we’ve ever stayed in. Our family has all ages, and everyone loved the home. Plenty of games and activities for those who want to be active, and it is impeccably decorated and comfortable if you want to relax inside or outside also. We were surprised at how high quality appliances and furniture were in the home, and the house was stocked with all necessities so we didn’t have to go to the store. Lara and Bill left a gift basket for us upon arrival and communicated quickly and provided lots of information about the area. If we are back in the area, we will definitely stay again!

Spectacular Home

This is the best rental we have ever stayed in. It’s beautifully decorated. All the little details That most rentals overlook were added by the owners to make our stay pleasant from the water in the fridge to the s’mores kit for the fire pit. They’ve thought of everything. It’s definitely a gem on the lake.

Wonderful home!

Wonderful home! We stayed this past week for our Thanksgiving holiday along with celebrating our 20th anniversary with our two children a 16y/o and a18y/o From this start, I could tell this home was a labor of love for the owners, from excellent communication prior to stay to a fully stocked home with all that you will need or all you may have forgotten to bring. This home was a great space to spread out. It was beautiful, clean and modern.

Peaceful Retreat

Lakeview Landing Lanier provided the most perfect escape for our family. It was a welcome reprieve following our long drive south from MI to visit family. Our group included 3 young kids ages 3-6, a set of grandparents as well as the husband and myself. We all agreed this was one of the best trips we've taken together. The house is perfectly stocked, oh so comfortable and beautifuly decorated. The kids (and adults) LOVED the game garage, kayaks, fishing, enjoying the sunset from the huge deck and dock. During our 3 day stay we were able to hike the Amicalola falls, spend a day on the lake (rented a pontoon boat from Gainesville Marina) and get downtown Atlanta to visit the Georgia Aquarium and other hot spots. The back deck is perfect for an outdoor movie so bring your projector and screen! My only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer. I can't recommend this place enough, you're in for a real treat here. 💗

Summer vacation

Great place on Lake Lanier truly a 5 star experience…stop looking & book. If you need a boat or jet ski call Captain Watersports. Jamie the owner was superb he delivered the boat to the dock & picked it up the next day it was seamless. Check out Gainesville it has plenty to eat & drink and take a drive to Helen to do some river tubing.

Perfect stay

Couldn't have asked for more! We had an amazing time at this beautiful property. The views are idyllic. Lara is an amazing host and was so responsive with questions. It was the first VRBO we have stayed at that we felt nothing was missing. The kids loved the game room and it kept them occupied when we weren't on the lake. Lara recommended a boat rental company that delivered right to the dock. 5 stars and we will be back! Thank you.

Return Visit

We've been renting houses along Lake Lanier every summer since 2014 (all good experiences), but this is the first house we have returned to. The layout is great, the house has a great vibe, the short walk to the dock is easy, and our favorite part is the deck in the back. I started every morning reading a book and just enjoying the outdoor from there. The host was great and responsive to any question or request we had. 10/10 recommend this house.

Home away from home!

This house is one of our favorite rentals we’ve had! It is equipped with everything you might need - Board games galore, fishing poles, kayaks, game garage, lake towels, even a Bundt pan for my angel food cake! The house is immaculate. The bathrooms are perfect and the master shower is the best. The owner left cupcakes for my son because I had mentioned it was his bday - such a thoughtful detail. We are a family of 7 with kids ages ranging from 6-16 and each one of them had a BLAST!!! We’d go back tomorrow if we could!
