    The property was nice and the house was kept neat. The downstairs of the house was extremely dusty. The lights had cob webs and deep dust in the glass, baseboards and kitchen was dirty. It actually was gross. We contacted Paige and she got someone out to dust the lamps the next day. She was very kind. I sent pictures because we were leaving the next day and Paige responded that she had the cleaners out for a deep cleaning.

    Never provided code to Vrbo and they cancelled my reservation when I arrived at the property. Had to get a last minute new reservation next day and stay in a hotel

    Location was perfect. The house is charming but needs updating especially in upstairs bath. Air conditioner in second bedroom is not working.

    We really enjoyed our stay here with a mix of adults and children ranging from 15 months to 11 years; great views of Lake Lanier from all over the house, nice kitchen, awesome living room + dining room area. The master bedroom is HUGE and super comfortable, and it was great having bathrooms on all 3 levels of the house. The basement was a hit with the kids, and the house is only 10 mins from a brand new Publix, which was super convenient. We really appreciated the super responsive communication from the hosts, and the super easy checkout process (no cleaning to worry about, no fuss). Great place from which to enjoy Lake Lanier and the Gainseville area!

    The house is great for a bigger family. Very comfortable and lots of space to spread out. The online pictures were pretty accurate of the property. The host was easy to contact and answered questions quickly. The location was a bit off the beaten path but worked for us.

    We truly enjoyed our stay at this sweet house. It was clean and efficient, exactly as pictured. The bed in the master was particularly comfortable.

    Home has a perfect layout for family gathering. Well stocked kitchen. No way swimming was possible from property. And no useable outdoor grill. But close to Olympic Park which has a small public beach and swim area. Paige was wonderful to work with and quickly responsive.

    Cute cottage, kitchen not well equipped, not enough to want to stay in and cook. Decor needs significant updating. The aerial photo leads the renter to believe that the water is user friendly, but it is so far at the end of the slew that getting in the water is out of the question. It was disappointing.

    The property was beautiful and well-kept even for the short period of time that we stayed. It felt like home and was very relaxing. We have added this property to our list of favorites when we need to get away again we hope that it’s available five star all the way.

    This is a great home that comfortably fit 10 adults. The house was clean and ready for us when we arrived. It was a wonderful home away from home for the weekend!
