Lake Lanier Farmhouse near Olympic Rowing Venue

The home itself was absolutely beautiful and appeared just as described. It was completely redone and well-maintained. However, the drone photos don’t show how close the house actually is to the main highway, which unfortunately made our stay less peaceful due to constant traffic noise.We were also woken up before 8 a.m. on our first morning by a crew of landscapers working right outside on the porch, with multiple blowers and mowers going at once. Later that evening, someone knocked on the back door. After asking several times who it was with no response, I lifted the blinds to find a man who identified himself as the owner. He said he wanted to introduce himself and let us know there was firewood, which was already visible next to the door. While likely well-intentioned, the unannounced visit felt intrusive and uncomfortable. Overall, the home itself is lovely, but the proximity to the highway, early landscaping noise, and unexpected visit from the owner made it difficult to fully relax. We will be back in town next year and will be looking elsewhere.

The property and house were beautiful. The host was super nice. There wasn’t a wine opener so he brought us over 2. We had a couple issues. We were unable to use the dock. The furniture was molded and green and there were about 10-15 wasps nests all over the roof of the dock. We are at the lake and couldn’t even use the dock which was the reason you choose to stay on the lake. We were unable to get in the water and use the dock. There were also 2 white chairs in the dining area that are dirty and stained really bad. We had to put towels over them to sit in them.

I can’t say enough good things about the stay and the owner. Wonderful property and wonderful people.

Beautiful home! Plenty of space for two families to share. Great location! Being close to the boat ramp was so convenient.

Nice place and not bad for a short vacation. Owners are easy going and responsive. House is nice and has a dock. Neighbors are chill. Only thing that's missing is a couple more oven trays. But other than that good house.

We had a great weekend at the Lake Lanier Farmhouse. The house is very comfortable with all the modern amenities you would need. We brought our boat and parking it in the slip was super easy (also the boat ramp is very convenient). The location on Lanier is far from the main busy sections and feels more like a river. Great for spending the day on the water with little to no boat traffic even on a weekend. Great place and would definitely recommend

The house was very nice and clean with lots of space. It had everything we needed to cook. Great Lake view!

We stayed here during August with four adults and four kids. We were very comfortable in this modern house with very nice furnishings. The AC was excellent. The house is perfectly situated, with a huge yard leading to the lake. There is an awesome firepit in the backyard, and we roasted marshmallows and made smores, the kids loved it. We took out the paddleboat, and enjoyed the lake. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. I would mention that there are plenty of insects around, and while they didn't bother us, they might bother other people.

Beautiful home, tons of room. only issue was that there were lots of ants; might just be a concern of being near the lake/mountains but could use some support with an exterminator

The place overall was fantastic. Lots of TVs beds etc. The protected cove for swimming and boating was phenomenal! Gentle slope to lake! Big backyard for kids to play. The only negatives were the street noise (nothing they can help) and lack of true living room for family gathering.

Our family had a wonderful time. The grandkids loved fishing from the dock and swimming as well as seeing the geese, the deer, the duck and the fox. Would definitely recommend for a family vacation. Hosts were wonderful.

We stayed at the house for 3 days, it was a great little perfect getaway. Thank you for making the place so welcoming.

We visited Gainesville this week and stayed in this home. It was impeccably clean and a great space for our family and extended family that was also visiting the area. The hosts were great and accommodating in every way. I would for sure stay in this home again!

We couldn’t have asked for a better rental house. Everything you would want was there and more. Even my grandchildren loved the roominess of the house and outside the fishing was great. The accommodations was great. The owner was great! Best house ever rented on the lake with gentle sloping property. Will definitely stay there again!

The house is great. The lake access & dock was on a quiet cove of Lanier with very little boat activity. We were able to relax and have fun. My only complaint would be the house from the road. The house is directly off a main road.
