Lakefront Living! Lake Arrowhead GA Lake House

MonicaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
The house is a great stay and the host is fantastic! Kristen is very responsive, helpful, and even offered to extend our stay at a reduced rate. The house is right on the water with an amazing dock. The community is gated and has great amenities--we enjoyed the playground and the hiking trails. Definitely beats any hotel in the area!

Quiet Water-front Home on Lake Arrowhead, GA

DanielleRating, 5 stars5 months ago
This house was perfect for our family over Thanksgiving weekend. It was was clean, cozy, and well stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location is perfect with multiple neighborhood amenities and the view from the back porch over the lake is stunning - especially if you catch the sunrise. Quick and easy communication with Mike. Highly recommend.

Charming lakefront cottage on Lake Lanier w/dock

Nick And TaylorRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This spot had the most amazing view of the Lake and was so peaceful to enjoy. The property was well equipped and we enjoyed our time here so much we would stay here again. Perfect for a family we felt right at home as soon as we walked in. Only recommendation would be to have extra blankets and pillows but everything else was top notch. We will be back!

Our group of three families stayed at this Airbnb for a wedding, and it was an incredibly comfortable and enjoyable experience! The house was spotless, well-maintained, and had plenty of space for all of us to relax and feel at home. One of the best parts of the stay was the stunning waterfront location. Waking up to the beautiful views and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere made our trip even more special. It was the perfect setting for a memorable getaway. The host was amazing—super responsive and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our stay. Their hospitality truly made a difference.

With it being a tournament weekend and the reason for our stay, it would have been very helpful to have access to charge the boat batteries. Overall, had a very enjoyable visit and will stay again if we are ever in another tournament in Lanier. Thanks, The Roach's

The Shoreland Home on Lake Lanier With Dock

KatieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This place was so beautiful!! The windows overlooking the woods and lake was stunning, especially in the morning. We loved spending time on the deck with the fireplace! The rooms were very comfortable, the kitchen was stocked with everything to cook. The walk down to the dock was steep, but still pretty magical! Scott was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed! Highly recommend this place if you want a peaceful getaway!

We felt right at home at Ellen’s place. This is by far one of the nicest and cleanest places we have stayed at. It is a very nice area and private. The location could not be any better either. We will stay here again when we have another fishing tournament.

Tequila Sunrise

EricRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Awesome place and great host. The entire process from booking to check-in to leaving was frictionless and easy. The house is an excellent, super quiet location. Great for a weekend stay, and ample space for people to hang in different areas without being on top of each other.

Lake Front Tiny Home on Timpson Cove

ShannonRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We will have to come back and visit this wonderful house and boat house in the summertime. I can only imagine how wonderful it is when you can enjoy sitting on the dock and soaking in this beautiful lake. We visited on probably the coldest weekend of the year, so we did not get to take full advantage of all the amenities. Everything was really nice and we had a very relaxing long weekend.

Lake Lanier Getaway in Beautiful North Georgia Mtn

ShannonRating, 5 stars3 months ago
First off, Wendy is a spectacular human! She was the sweetest! I messaged her to see if we could check in a little early, not only could we check in early she let us know it was ready before the early check-in! She checked on us to see if we needed anything done around the house, leaves or wanted the Christmas decor down! It was just outstanding and we loved the Christmas decor! The boat dock was so peaceful and was my workout everyday!!! We will be back for sure!! It’s like we are family now!

Lake front, private dock

LeliaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
The home was immaculate, perfectly described, and nicely furnished. Check in and check out were easy. My son, 3 of his friends, and I all had a fantastic time. They spent their days on the paddle boards, fishing, and down in the basement. I spent my time reading on the amazing back porch snuggled in the hammock chair. 5 Stars!!

Lake Arrowhead Home w/Hot Tub & Gameroom!

NatalieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this Waleska retreat. The house was amazing and completely as advertised…even nicer considering all the detailed personalized touches put in to make you feel at home. Every appliance and kitchen gadget you could imagine and the most impressive game room we have ever seen. And endless snacks and a s’more kit upon arrival. We enjoyed the endless deer feeding and the beautiful serene setting. Only wish we didn’t plan such a busy schedule and would’ve been able to enjoy the home more. Looking forward to visiting again!

Awesome cabin with great views

JordanRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This AirBnB in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains was a wonderful place to get away from it all. The view from the cabin's deck was great. It was a bit of a rocky climb to get there by car, but totally worth it. Lewis was also very helpful in responding to our concerns about flooding due to heavy rain one of te nights we stayed. Overall a great experience!

Your guide to Lake Lanier

All About Lake Lanier

Lake Lanier, tucked between Gainesville and Buford, is a peaceful destination in the hills of Northern Georgia. This lake was a project intended to help develop America’s waterways during World War II; in the 1950s, the Buford Dam was completed and formed Lake Lanier. Today, this oasis is home to more than 53,000 residents who live across five counties.

Lake Lanier is one of the most popular lakes in the Southeast and is the largest lake in Georgia. It’s home to more than 700 miles of beaches stretching across 38,000 acres. Experience the solitude of the mountains, the majesty of the waterfalls, and the beauty of the Chattahoochee and Chestatee Rivers as you enjoy a stay in one of the Lake Lanier cabins or house rentals. Lake Lanier has more than 45 parks and 10 campgrounds within its vicinity and is a fishing destination, welcoming fishers and anglers who can’t get enough of the lake’s provisions.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Lake Lanier

Beginning in March, the lake is warm enough to swim in, but the main swimming season starts in May. Once you settle into your Lake Lanier cabin, the water activities nearby are plentiful and include boating and kayaking. After Labor Day weekend the park is less busy — so if you’re looking to avoid crowds, this could be a great opportunity to visit, as the temperatures stay warm here through October. During the wintertime, visitors come here for snow tubing, carnival rides, and ice skating. Golfing is a year-round activity at the lake. Check local events calendars for live music, beach cruises, and full moon festivities throughout the year.


Top things to do in Lake Lanier

Atlanta’s Botanical Garden, Gainesville

An extension of the Atlanta Botanical Garden, the Gainesville garden is one of the largest nature conservation nurseries in the Southeast. It’s only a short drive from Lake Lanier and is a tropical paradise. The garden has more than 30 acres to explore plus creative installations, cocktail nights, and exhibits for kids.

The Buford Dam Trail

At the Buford Dam Trail, you’ll be able to walk behind the dam that created Lake Lanier while taking in views of the Chattahoochee River. Access this trail via the Lower Overlook Park to avoid parking fees. As you hike this trail you’ll experience stunning views, cross beautiful bridges, and maybe even spot some woodland creatures.

Downtown Burford

After a relaxing few days out in nature, shift gears and explore Downtown Buford. Only a 22-minute drive from Lake Lanier, this small town has great art galleries, shops, taverns, and event halls to explore.
