Vacation Rentals by Owner

Nice quiet place

Date of Stay: 04/29/12 Review Submitted: 05/13/12

Had a great time at this location. Spent the first few days with just the two of us. Coffee on the deck in the morning overlooking the lake and wine and cheese on the deck at night listening to the whippoorwills were a joy. Then we were joined by our six year old and three year old grandchildren for the rest of the time. They also enjoyed their stay with us. The house was well equipped and comfortable. We hope to come back again some time.

Owner response:Donald, I could tell you were looking forward to having the grand-kids up. Glad all had a peaceful stay and you enjoyed the deck and water. You are welcome to return to us anytime. Thanks Barry

One of the best views of the Lake

Guest: Carl and Linda
Date of Stay: 04/07/12 Review Submitted: 04/19/12

5 stars Listing was accurate. Very clean property! Stocked very well. Owner answered all of our questions. Cameron Circle has one of the best views of the Lake. The view from this house can be seen from the deck--awesome-- (hard to find at other homes). The dock was great to sit back and take it all in! Also the cleanest gas grill I have seen at a rental. It was a our 1st time-- but we will be repeat customers! Barry-- thanks for the card and the nice surprise-- very nice touch

Fiancee & Fiancee From Loganville

We enjoyed our weekend getaway! We needed a getaway not to far from home, due to health reasons we needed to get back home soon so we planned a Birthday getaway. We both enjoy fishing, movies and music. The Vacation Rental allowed us to do all of that and some relaxation as well. The home was easy to locate, very clean, quaint and peaceful. It was well stocked with everything we thought we might need, we only needed to bring our food! We loved it and will be back!

Senior Couple from Naples, Fl.

Stayed for eight days during February to be close to family living in the area. Everything about the house is neat, clean, and very nicely furnished. Location is close to activities but removed from traffic and noise. The cabin is beautifully situated directly on the lake, so the view from the deck and major rooms could not be nicer.

Owner response:Fabulous to hear you had a great time. Your comments are much appreciated.

My family met at the lake house for an early Christmas together and had a great time. The house is secluded yet close to shops, golfing, and plenty of restaurants. The house had everything we needed and Barry was excellent to work with. Thanks for providing us with such a beautiful spot to spend some time together. We'll have to come back during the summer when the kids can enjoy swimming in the lake.

Owner response: We work hard to make your stay the best experience you could have. When we get wonderful responses like the one you sent, it pleases us greatly. We thank you sincerely, and hope you are able to stay with us again. Barry

Fantastic Vacation and "Honeymoon" spot

Guest: Ed S.
Date of Stay: 09/12/11 Review Submitted: 12/16/11

This rental was a fantastic vacation choice for this older recently married couple . It was so nice, we wish we had spent our actual honeymoon there. The home was very clean, well maintained, and in a wonderful secluded setting.,with a great view of the lake, as well as the surrounding woods .The back deck was so peaceful and scenic , we could have easily spent most of our time there. We enjoyed meeting the owners, who were friendly and cooperative. Shopping is abundant and convenient: Many interesting sites to visit close-bye. We plan to return for another great vacation in 2012.

Owner response: Thanks for the wonderful words. We enjoyed meeting you so much. All the best in your new marriage adventure.

We had a great time and loved being able to bring our dog. We will definitely be back. Thanks for the bottle of wine, we enjoyed it. I would also like to thank you for keeping your house so clean. It is always great when we find someplace really clean, since I have allergies to dust and mold. Great Place to stay....

Loved the place and area

Date of Stay: 09/24/10 Review Submitted: 10/06/10

My wife and I spent a week enjoying this beautiful home on the lake. We're both in our 50's, have been together for almost 20 years and agreed that it's probably the best vacation we've had together. I caught some fish off the dock, enjoyed swimming in the lake. The scenery is terrific. Even a rainy day is very pleasant with the view from the living room. We would recommend it for a vacation.

Hi Barry, I just wanted to drop a line and thank you and commend you on your beautiful house on the lake. I'm sorry I missed the opportunity to meet you. We couldn't have enjoyed ourselves more. Teri and I agreed that it was the best vacation we've had in ages, maybe ever. I will certainly recommend it to friends and family. I hope this finds you well. Thanks again.

Date of Stay: 07/30/10 Review Submitted: 08/26/10

Barry, So sorry it took this long to send you a quick note letting you know how much we enjoyed staying in your cottage on Lake Lanier. It is now my husbands favorite boating lake and expect he will be asking to go back next summer. We appreciated and enjoyed the bottle of wine as a welcome to an adorable lake house for our family to enjoy! Marianne

Family Retreat

Guest: Bobbie T (Fayetteville)
Date of Stay: 06/19/10 Review Submitted: 07/17/10

This house is great for just a couple wishing to spend some quiet time alone, or a family with kids. We stayed for a week and enjoyed every moment of our time there. It was very comfortable and there was plenty of room for our five kids. The master is very large and private. We had room to setup a "mini nursery" for our four month old. The bed was every bit as comfortable as a five star hotel as were the linens throughout the rest of the house. We turned the loft into a "playroom/gameroom," giving us plenty of space on the main floor. It was so nice to wake up and see our sailboat out at the dock each morning. The dock is perfect for swimming and just across the open water is a small island with a great little "beach". You feel completely secluded in this quiet community, but you are moments from the boat ramp and park and just ten minutes to nearby shopping and dining. We try to stay in a different area each vacation for variety, but I could see us returning again soon. This would be the perfect place to spend some time when the leaves start changing. I can just picture the view from the lake on a crisp fall morning...book and warm cup of coffee in hand. (Barry: Thank you for the little extra touches that made our vacation so enjoyable. You really made us feel welcome. Bobbie T)
