About this house rental
Windows everywhere make it feel like a tree house, on the lake. Our families home is all about family & friends gathering and having fun. The spaces in the home are very socially engaging. Take an easy 45 second, walk to the lake in our quite cove and go for an evening canoe, its pretty special. Bring your own boat and tie up at the dock if you prefer. The creek in the back of the home, that flows into Lake Lanier, is lightly active and creates a nice soundtrack for evenings on the back decks. The home has amazing fast internet, streaming media on the televisions, SONOS whole home audio system, games for the whole family, gas grill, multiple decks to enjoy the wooded setting by the lake, foosball table and a kitchen that is very well appointed. At Lanier Vacation Rentals our goal is to provide a 5 star level of service experience beyond anything you you would expect. Send us a note and let us know how we can make your experience 5 star!
The "FULL POOL" LAKE LANIER LAKE LEVEL is 1,071' above sea level. At full pool there is 5'6" of water under the dock. We have no warning of the Army Corps of Engineers plan regarding control of lake levels. Guests should check to make sure this elevation is appropriate for their needs. Spring / Summers are typically at or above Full Pool. At full pool we can hold most any motor boat on the lake and most sailboats under 30', ALL without any issue. Double check lake level elevations online, to see if the current levels meet your needs. Water has been very low this year and the dock was grounded in April/May.

Communicative host, beautiful property. Perfect size home with spacious rooms for our family. Morning coffee in the outside seating area with fireplace was divine!

This house could really use an instruction manual. We spent so much time trying to get things to work and communicating with the owner, we didn't have any time left to enjoy it. The main TV was beyond frustrating (my husband and I are in our mid 30's and very tech savvy) we finally just had to give up on it, which was really sad for the kids. The fridge's water filter and ice machine didn't work which was a hassle to have to deal with bottled water.
The oven door was locked and not useable - the owner offered to get us a table top unit but we had large trays of food that needed to be heated. We also didn't really want to deal with repair people coming in the house with our guests and small children.
The master shower drain was clogged upon arrival. My 4 year old literally thought it was a tub it filled up so fast - gross. It is also a very unfunctional shower if you like a nice hot shower - only a half shower door so all the heat escapes. Also the water takes an obscenely long time to heat up, like minutes.
There were people constantly working on the landscaping which was loud and intrusive. The house has a lot of big windows with no shades so we felt on display.
My 7 year old found a pair of women's underwear under a bed.
The driveway is terrifying. I had to have my husband drive the van up when I wanted to leave.
The owner was quick to respond but all solutions involved him or service people coming over - which again we just wanted to enjoy the home and not have strangers coming in and out.
It was my sisters first VRBO experience and she said it will be her last, she said she'd rather be cramped in a hotel than a place that isn't functional.
