Every single aspect of this rental exceeded our expectations, the property is stunning. We would highly recommend this home to anyone with a large group, and we will likely stay here again soon! Thanks again, everything was perfect!
House was exactly as pictured. Gorgeous, clean and plenty of space for our six families. The pool area was so pretty and we loved playing games at the huge dining table.
We booked the house for a team meeting & it exceeded expectations. The home is beautiful, the beds & pillows were so cozy, and the service was top notch. If I could book a multi year reservation I absolutely would!
We had a wonderful weekend with family of all ages! Plenty of room for kids to play and have fun. They loved being in the pool and our elderly mother could sit on the deck on the main level and see everything that was going on! We hope to do it again next year!

Thank you for your stay. The knives are in the cabinet next to the oven. We do not keep them in drawers so they are out of reach of children. There are 2 blenders (2 expensive blenders) in the cabinet behind the bar area). We have a complimentary hospitality coordinator to assist with your stay. Please call if you can’t find something. This house is stocked and stocked very well. Thanks
A great place with plenty of room and we especially liked the covered porches and the pool. The kitchen and bar had just about everything our group needed. We'll be back next year.

Thank you Polly we gave you 5 stars too
some kind of glitch in rating system shows otherwise we will work to correct that.
Your family was fantastic to have as guests!
The house is beautiful and very clean. We loved that none of us had to share bathrooms. I would recommend bringing extra blankets. We didn’t have enough.

Thank you for the kind words …. And the suggestion about more throw blankets in living areas. I’m going to suggest it was an unexpected yet welcome suggestion. It was 95 degrees outside.The Air Conditioning in the house is very effective and will reach uncomfortably cold temps if you set it on 62 degrees it will do just that. Other homes May struggle to stay cool in heat wave type conditions this one delivers !
We definitely want you and your family back for another stay
Please contact North Georgia Boating Club with any inquiries
Short corporate retreat. Ample space and activities for a corporate retreat. Technology and home features were easy to use and the host was very accommodating. Will look for future opportunities to use this space.
Great property for a sales retreat or multi-family getaway! The house is beautiful and has plenty of space. Only negative is how you can hear people walking around easily when in bed at night bc everything is wood.
We had our bi annual family reunion this past week with a total of 22 adults and teens. The house was very spacious in all the bedrooms and public spaces. The pool and dock were just as nice as they look in the pictures. The owner stopped by to check the trash and cleaned the pool for us after a storm blew through and the pool guy wasn’t available. We have rented several lake homes over the last 12 years and this is one of the best.
ALL of us were SUPER impressed, SUPER comfortable, & didn't want to leave!! Phenomenal spacious 3 levels impeccably built & furnished - SO LOVELY!! Plus, Steve with N GA Boating Club could not have been more accommodating, friendly, helpful - ETC!! Several of our guests are considering for their families! Worth every penny
We had a wonderful stay and were very pleased with ease of rental and communication with owner and staff. The house was equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We rented the boat, which wasn’t the best for tubing, but the kids still enjoyed it. I think there is or will be a faster boat available for tubing, that is excellent! I would go back to this house anytime!!

Thank you,
Glad you had a great time
Yes the boat club has faster boats
reserving a boat early will get you more options North Georgia Boating Club has on line calendars. You can find North Georgia Boating Club with a simple google search
Thanks for everything Josh and Family
A family reunion ages 1 to 80. Great house, nicely spread out over 3 floors. The pool/hot tub was great but a little tricky to operate.
Having the boat club boats right at our dock was awesome. They delivered early and picked up late.
Host was very accommodating. I will definitely book this property again.
We rented two pontoon boats provided at the dock for 3 days. Kids LOVED being on the water. Home is beautiful, well equipped, and gave us a lot of room to spread out as well as great places to congregate. Steve was very helpful and supportive (quick response to questions by text), amazing kitchen, lots of fridge space(s), pool table, excellent location close to grocery store as well. Highly recommend!! Not a place for wild parties since there are close neighbors. We were all worn out and in bed before 10. Would definitely consider going back again. We had 17 adults and 6 kids. Only with a 10 star rating was possible...

Thank you for your kind words
You are welcome back anytime. Boat at your dock via 770 2 Lanier
22 members of our family spent the Thanksgiving weekend at Timber Estate and it was almost as if this house was built for us. There were several areas throughout for congregating and relaxing; the sofas and chairs were beyond comfortable. There were plenty of bedrooms and bunkrooms, each with its own private bath; perfect when we each needed a break from our crowd. There were all sorts of recreational opportunities, both indoors and out; no one was ever bored. Our family gathers annually for Thanksgiving; this year, the raves were all about the house. The hosts were super communicators, providing helpful information and advice before and during our stay. There are not enough words to convey how wonderful this property is, especially if your group is large and covers almost every age and gender. Our only surprise was that there was no bath soap in any of the bathrooms, but this was more than offset by all the great features throughout the property. Highly recommended.
