Fine cotton percale sheets with hemstitched detail and yes, our down pillows are amazing! Down alternative pillows are also available.

Spend the day swimming and playing in the lake from our 32 x 32 foot 2 story boat dock on a very quiet cove. The boat dock has been completely renovated in 2026. We provide two double-seater kayaks, two stand up paddleboards and a giant "lily pad" - children love it! We supply a variety of life jackets. The large upper deck has comfortable adirondack chairs and chaise lounges with a beautiful view down the channel. We love to watch the sun set over the water in the evenings. The lower deck is partially shaded.

After a day on the lake, relax by our refreshing saltwater pool. The pool is bordered by a lush grass lawn and beautiful palm trees - all surrounded by natural forest. This is a one-of-a-kind resort quality oasis where you will love spending your days and evenings. At night, enjoy the ambience of the lights on the palm trees reflecting on the surface of the water while you relax in our comfortable poolside furniture.

The pool has an outdoor Tikki bar with a large gas grill and a stainless steel "Le Griddle" for evening cookouts and cocktails. There are multiple seating areas for dining and relaxing under the shade of our 5 pool umbrellas. The outdoor poolside changing room has a bathroom and shower with hot water. The pool can be heated in the off season - a separate fee applies.

Many of our guests rent a boat and keep it at our dock during their stay. We provide referrals for boat rentals including having the boat delivered to our dock.

This is the perfect vacation house for people who are looking for quiet and privacy with both lake and poolside fun. You can relax by the pool without hearing boats and jet-skis, and there are no other people or houses in sight. This is extremely unusual on Lake Lanier, where you almost always see and hear people in other houses next door on both sides.

The house is surrounded by forest. It's a 3 minute walk along a private path through the forest to the boat dock (approx. 220 yards). Most people enjoy the walk through nature. The path has 2 sections - the upper path is paved but a little steep. The bottom section has a very gentle slope to the boat dock. You can avoid the steeper section by walking along a quiet road that runs along the side of our property to "the halfway point." It's a short, easy walk from there. You can also park your car or a golf cart at the halfway point - we will show you exactly where. Please inquire for details about golf cart rentals.

Kitchen accessories include a crock pot, Instapot, dutch oven, cookie sheets, Kitchenaid mixer, blender, large roasting pan, casserole and pie dishes - pretty much anything you might need for cooking, baking and creating memorable family meals. We have a separate full-size freezer and refrigerator in the garage for so you can stock up on your favorite foods before arrival.

Available for weekly rentals in the summer, shorter stays in the off season. Located approximately 1 hour from Atlanta.

The fireplaces are not available for guest use. The diving board in the photo has been removed from the pool for safety reasons.
