About the host
Hosted by Collins Foster
I am a Georgia native who spends 97% of my time watching my daughter play softball, washing softball uniforms, planning softball team meals, and avoiding being asked to manage GameChanger stats at softball tournaments! The other 3% of the time I manage my private practice as a Licensed Master of Social Work and try to sneak away to the lake with my husband, daughter and Labradoodle as much as our schedule allows!
My family has been spending long weekends on Lake Lanier for the past 14 years! It started with renting a boat, then buying a boat, and then we lucked upon Holly Hideaway in the spring of 2021. Until we can make Holly Hideaway our full-time residence, we enjoy sharing our home with guests who have traveled as far as Texas and Oklahoma to spend time in North Georgia!
Why they chose this property
Holly Hideaway is a cozy, yet spacious, home located in the Country Place neighborhood tucked in the back of Chestatee (a separate community) located directly on GA 400, 5 miles north of the North Georgia Premium Outlets. Guests enjoy a quiet, family-friendly lake retreat with a private dock in a low-traffic cove.
What makes this property unique
Guests of Holly Hidaway have access to our private dock, kayak, paddle boards, game room with ping pong table, and several board games for non-stop entertainment! To ensure our guests are comfortable, we deliberately furnished three of the 4 bedrooms with king-size beds. The fourth bedroom and additional bonus room each have two (2) twin XL beds which makes sleeping arrangements easy! Because we are parents, we know how cumbersome traveling with allllll the baby equipment can be. Therefore, we have stocked Holly Hideaway with all the essentials including a Pack n' Play, highchair, walkers, stroller (for walks; not for car rides), and more!
