We are local and rented this home to celebrate my husband's birthday along with a few close friends to share memorable times together. Lake Lanier has always been our favorite destination during the summer, and we have rented many homes in this area. What we loved about this home right away was the complete privacy that you just don't get with most of the Lanier homes we’ve rented before. As we drove into the parking area, the view was just magnificent, and the photo doesn't do justice. There is the viewing deck that you can walk up to and is just even more stunning from the top. The home is super spacious, the beds weren't cramped like most Lanier homes we’ve rented and literally every single room is spacious with King size beds, which is an A+ for all us adults. All of our friends seem to really enjoy their beds. Being seasoned renters, I can appreciate special touches and unique amenities such as this super-giant swim-spa combo, which is like a swimming pool but is a hot tub and all twelve of us were in it literally with extra space in between. The only complaint we have is the long walk to the dock, due to my knee issue, but most of us didn't have trouble hiking to and from the dock. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay. We didn’t have any issues with the house, everything was in working order, and the host was very responsive. This is our new favorite spot and we will be renting again next year for sure.
