Summer Discount-Lakefront-2 story dock w/ Views!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lake house! It was perfect for our family—spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The view of the lake was so serene, and we loved spending time outside soaking it all in. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, which made cooking meals a breeze. It truly felt like a home away from home. The peaceful setting and thoughtful touches throughout the house made our trip extra special. We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing, family-friendly getaway, and we’d love to stay here again!

Shores of Lake Lanier - Beautiful New Build Home!
Beautiful place for a weekend gateway close to Lake Lanier! Our family had a great time and will definitely look to return in the future. The game room, hot tub, and fire pit were great amenities. We also loved the peace and quiet in the backyard!

Lake view, great sunset view off dock, 3 bedrooms
I cannot say enough great things about this property. We arrived to the most beautiful house in a location that was utterly perfect! This home has absolutely everything you would need, essentially just show up with food and clothes! The beds were all VERY comfortable, soft linens, plenty of pillows and well put together. The living areas were cozy & comfortable. Games, items to enjoy the lake, outdoor areas, fire-it for s'mores were all a bonus. The kitchen was stocked with absolutely every thing you would need. The countertop icemaker was my daughters favorite feature! Our kids enjoyed the kayaks, paddleboards and floats. We enjoyed a glass of wine while watching them! Easy communication & great host. You could not ask for a better house! Thank you for the best stay! We will definitely be back!

4bd Lakehouse w/ Dock + HotTub + FirePit + Kayaks
Great spot. House was clean, and the hosts were very easy to contact. House is pn the North end of the lake which is much more calm than the southern portion. Also very close to a Marina.

A-Frame on Lake Lanier with Private Dock
We loved this A frame on the Lake! Loved the vintage touches and decor, it was very fitting for a lake house. The spiral staircase was neat but it's pretty steep. The only negative I have about the house is the deck. Deck was dirty and needed a good cleaning, deck furniture was nasty. Couldn't sit out there but it had rained at night anyway. The inside was great! Comfy beds, plenty of places to sit and relax. Great kitchen with retro fridge and stove. Quiet spot on the lake to fish and kayak. 2 Kayaks were provided but one was quite dirty and the rack holding it up appeared to be falling apart so be careful about that. I did inform Kevin about the deck outside and that the cushions needed replacing. Overall very clean and enjoyable and close to everything you'd need in town!

TheView make memories/ Dock/Waterview-Lake Lanier
A great property with lots of guest space, and everything we needed to have a peaceful weekend at the lake. Deepti is a responsive host.

The Shoreland Home on Lake Lanier With Dock
Great place in a more private cove. Close to all of the marinas and action but also secluded enough. Rented a boat from the local boat club and they delivered right to our dock which was great. Place was spacious was plenty of room for our sized group. The surround sound Bluetooth setup was awesome too. Could play music in every area of the house. Did lots of fishing from the dock and caught lots of bluegill, perch, and catfish. The screened in back porch was also awesome for rain storms and morning coffee. Host was very responsive and easy to get ahold of. 10/10 recommend.

Spacious Family Lakehouse*Lakefront*Firepit
Excellent place to stay! Spacious kitchen with everything you need. Beautiful setting tucked into the woods. The kids loved playing in the lake while adults hung out on the dock. We had a wonderful time with our family and friends that traveled in from out of town. Would definitely stay here again without hesitation.

Norcross/Atlanta:Entire Unit H,FASTWiFi, FreeParkn
Danielle is an amazing host. True southern hospitality. Great place for a solo or couple work traveler. Nice desk set up and quiet place. Will stay again when in town

Gateway by the Brave’s-Free parking/-Spacious-cozy
This place was perfect for us! We had a concert to attend at the Coca Cola Roxy and this home was an easy 6 minute walk to the venue! They left very clear instructions (that I may have overlooked for some information) but were very friendly when I messaged them for clarification. Their response time is the best I’ve ever experienced on AirBnB. Mostly getting back to us in under 20 minutes. The place was well kept and had plenty of glasses and kitchen equipment if needed. We didn’t get a chance to visit the lake behind the place since it rained most of the time we stayed but it was stunning enough that we were able to keep the curtains drawn to enjoy the view. For the most part the neighborhood was quiet and made it a wonderful stay. When we make it back out to Atlanta this place will be first on my list!!

Romantic,Carriage House Apartment with a View
Awesome weekend at Constance’s Airbnb! So relaxing.

Harmony On The Lakes retreat.
Me and my fiancé stayed here for three months, and we absolutely loved it. The place was perfectly clean when we arrived and had everything we needed for cooking and cleaning. It is a basement apartment on the ground level of their house, and we never had any noise problems with them living above us. The neighborhood itself was so beautiful, and I always felt safe. I would highly recommend anyone to stay with Monique. She is very kind and always responded in a timely manner if I messaged her about something.

Spacious2BR-2BTH/5 min walk -Truist Park/free PRKG
This place was everything I needed, maybe too much space for a solo traveler. There was enough space for me plus 2 -3 more comfortably. I didn’t use the kitchen or the pool on site however, both looked inviting to use. I did take a walk around the pond near by and caught a game at Truist park, also near by. I would come back

Club Cozy 2bd 2bath near The Battery/Braves!
Kyara was a very friendly and responsive host! Even before we arrived, she responded to our questions and inquiries. The space was very clean and inviting…and also safe and secure, which was important to our group of three senior ladies. Check in and check out were easy. Very few requests upon checkout, which was nice. Hand soap and dishwashing soap are provided, but guests may want to bring their own bath soap, laundry soap, and dryer sheets. Apparently, some folks like to bring their own supplies of these things due to allergies, and personal preferences. Air B & Bs are different in what they consider standard supplies. (Kyara did bring us soap and body wash when we requested it, which we appreciated!) We had an emergency while we were in town and Kyara was more than helpful in offering assistance to help us get it resolved. She is an excellent host and will make you feel quite welcome! We would recommend the Club Cozy to friends and would stay here again!

Gainesville Getaway by Lake Lanier
Andrea was so helpful when our original AirBNB was inaccessible and we had to find a new place that was accessible and available last minute. Thank you so much!!!
Lake access cottage rentals

JOYHouse LUXE Min Clayton,Lk Burton & Waterfall CC
This was one of the most magical places we have ever stayed. I can’t speak highly enough about this cottage and its surroundings. It was luxurious, spotless, and had everything we needed for a peaceful getaway. Close to town with great shops and restaurants, but also very private and serene. One of the best trips we have taken in a very long time. I can’t recommend this beautiful home enough.

Lake Nottely Getaway
Patsy’s place was the perfect weekend getaway for our family. Seeing it with our own eyes was even better than the pictures on the listing. Beautiful lake front. Multiple outside dining and grilling spaces and a dock. There were only 4 of us but 3-4 more peeps could’ve joined us comfortably. Patsy was great with communicating and answering our questions. We would come back.

Renovated lake cottage at the base of Big Canoe
Beautiful home! Susan is awesome and communication was incredible. She really made our stressful wedding weekend easier and I truly appreciate her going the extra mile to assist with our special accommodation needs.

The Architect's Cottage: Unique! on Bishop Lake
This was our second stay at the Architect’s Cottage. It was as peaceful and calm this time as before. The deck and lake are our favorite things but inside the house is great too: clean and cozy and beautifully appointed with unique furnishings, art and lighting. Thank you, Jennifer for making this available again for us.

TLC: The Lake Cottage
We just spent a few days here and didn’t want to leave. It’s incredibly quiet and completely private -- pure nature and total peace. We brought our two dogs and they had the best time exploring and hanging out by the lake. It felt safe, relaxing, and just really comfortable. The cottage was spotless, cozy, and had everything we needed. Judith was so kind—she checked in by text to make sure we had everything, which we really appreciated. If you’re looking for a peaceful place to disconnect and recharge, this is it. We’re already planning to come back.

Gathering Moss Cottage on Burton
Thank you for another wonderful stay at this Lake Burton treasure! This house has the most beautiful view of the lake and we love how peaceful and serene it is there! There is a lot to do in the area but we always find ourselves just settling in and relaxing on the dock or the water! We can’t wait to come back next year!

Cozy Cottage Near Lake Lanier
We enjoyed our time in this cozy cottage! It felt like home as soon as we walked in. Everything was clean and just as it was described. We especially loved the outdoor fire pit area & the pups loved running around!

Lake house / hot tub / dock / pool table / firepit
Anya was an excellent host. We stayed at this listing for a wedding weekend. We had some tuxes mailed to the house and Anya and her husband ensured the packages were safe and delivered to us, her communication was always great. The listing itself was incredible. Definitely a place to stay for a big group. 10/10 recommend!
