Great location for our family and friends getaway! Loved the location on the lake and being able to dock our boat at the boat dock. Plenty of space for our group.

The house and lake access were very nice. We enjoyed the open space of the house. Everything was already there, including clean bedrooms and bath, a kitchen with everything needed to cook. I would recommend the lake house to friends and family.

The property was very clean and accommodated our families. We were in town for a soccer showcase tournament and really were there to put our heads to bed. The neighborhood is quiet and nice. Location-wise, this was perfect and only 20 minutes to the fields we were playing on. Whoever rented previously left dishes in the washer and never ran it, so they were disgusting, but not a reflection of the owner. Sometimes people just forget to press wash. The railing on the back deck is quite loose and I would not trust it if you had little ones running around but this was not an issue for us with older kids plus it is winter, and weather was too cold to be outside enjoying the lake.

As a frequent vacation renter, I have stayed at properties that were not as posted. There are a few things that a renter prefers, the property is as posted, and clean. This property actually better than the photos in the post, it is clean, a great view, nicely decorated, the post said you may see Deer, and there was Deer, We go to Ga. quite often and depending on availability would DEFINITELY stay here again, some of the requests were to remove the sheet's and put them in the Laundry room, some people may have a problem with that, I do not, it tells me the owner cares about cleanliness, It was a very nice stay.

Our family so enjoyed the space to gather, whether on the lake, watching the deer in the back yard, to playing corn hole in the front yard, to plenty of space inside the home to reconnect. Thanks again.

My husband and I and our 4 adult children and their partners stayed in this gorgeous house with double decker boat dock. The owner was delightful and the house a dream with plenty of room for all! We had other family join us for the day for a small family reunion and had a blast on the lake, lazing on tubes and rafts and a boat ride. We would definitely book this place again!

A bit of a walk to the water, however that is to be expected at the Lake. Suggest you bring your own ATV as there is a gravel path to the dock. House was perfect for us and the owner was flexible with our dates. Highly recommend.

Window broken light in basement broken dishwasher the arm kept falling off, board on gangplank is broken, chairs on the deck were broken some of them, stove draw broken, glass under the small bed in basement. TV in basement not hooked up. The place was spacious and plenty of seating. It accommodated us nicely. Master bedroom was nice.

Beautiful place for a memorable family reunion. Afternoon sunsets from the deck, watch the deer stroll by in the morning, or have an afternoon cocktail by the dock. What a great experience! This place is so comfortable and spacious. The kids (and even the pets) also loved it. Simply awesome.

Plenty of room to spread out. Beautiful views. Well equipped. Family stayed together due to a medical emergency with a family member in the hospital nearby. The property is about 15-20 minutes from grocery and restaurants but worth it for the excellent lake location. We enjoyed seeing many deer and wild life from the sun room facing the lake. All around, a very nice property. Our host, Robin, was very responsive and welcoming.

Just wish we could have gotten the exact address earlier. We were there for a wedding at Legacy Point and it was a 45 mile drive to the event. Buford and Cumming are not close. However the house was great and our grand dog loved every minute. We did love the house and would highly recommend it.

Overall we had a nice experience renting this property and would recommend this house for families with pets. The owner was very responsive and helpful. The house is very nice, spacious and the pictures accurately reflect the property. It was not the cleanest place that we have stayed and spent time upon arrival doing additional cleaning. We rented a boat each day and it was convenient to have the dock and go up to the house for lunch. The walk down to the lake is quite steep and rocky. Once you get down to the lake, the dock area and location on the lake is absolutely beautiful.

Great location on the lake and very nice deep water dock with a huge lot and a ton water front after you walk down the hill from the house. Inside the house was clean and as expected. Spacious common areas and big dinner table to accommodate 11. Outdoor porch was lovely and relaxing. Tons of wildlife on property. The property owner was very easy to talk to, very responsive and accommodating. The driveway will accommodate 4 - 5 cars but would not recommend bringing a trailer/boat, driveway is too steep and curved to maneuver a trailer easily. The owner accommodated us with alternative parking for our trailer. Great experience for a large family gathering that wants to enjoy the lake life in a comfortable home with a very nice dock.

Property was spacious, back patio and sun room facing the lake was wonderful. Air conditioning worked well. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans and silverware. I liked that all light switches were labeled. Beds were comfortable. Property was dated, a little shabby and not very clean. Each guest was given one towel each for seven days, so not enough towels; wash clothes were pitiful. Beach towels were thin and worn. Bath mats were worn. Not enough seating on lower deck of dock, not enough shade on upper deck. Master bathroom tub did not drain well; had to pull hair out of drain in order not to stand in dirty water while showering. Ice maker in refrigerator worked sporadically. Suggest a new cleaning crew.
