About this property
Lake Lanier Retreat - Fall 2026 Still Available!
This gorgeous lake home is immaculate and ready to accommodate a small family gathering, executive retreat, or any other vacation combination imaginable. The views of the lake are amazing and the location is just as great. Come for all the fun that Lake Lanier can offer, but don't forsake the surrounding areas to visit as well.
This home away from home is conveniently located just 5 minutes from GA 400 and the North Georgia Premium Outlet Mall. Past that, we are located just 30 minutes from Amicalola Falls State Park and its great hiking and sightseeing opportunities. While you're here, don't forget to check out the many other activities that are available, not only in Dawsonville, but in neighboring cities of Dahlonega, Cumming, and Gainesville. The property is also only about an hour's drive from Atlanta, so stay with us and take in some sights of the big city with a short commute.
This 7 bedroom home with expansive terrace level that will amaze you with its classic and tasteful decor and breathtaking views of the water and surrounding mountains. The house is situated in the middle of a deep water cove that is big enough to accommodate boats, jet skis, and swimmers of all kinds, but just off the main waterway enough to keep heavy boat traffic at bay.
This retreat sleeps 15 and is even equipped with a crib for your little one's comfort. The main level houses the full kitchen, laundry room, half bath, dining, breakfast, and living rooms as well as a great sun room facing the water and surrounded by windows. The master suite is also on the main floor and is fully decorated with a king bed, Jacuzzi tub, a walk-in closet and a separate linen closet. The sun room is accessible from the family room and the master bedroom. Just off the sun room is a deck fully equipped with patio furniture and a charcoal grill just down the steps. You will love the views from the deck. Take advantage of them in the early morning and the evening. Nothing beats having your morning coffee on the deck as the mist is lifting off the lake!!
Bedrooms 2, 3, 4, and a bonus room are located on the second level of the home. Bedroom #2 has its own adjoining bathroom, while the other bedrooms share a central hall bath. Queen beds fill bedrooms #2 and #3, along with walk-in closets, while #4 has a double bed and closet. The view of the lake from bedroom #4 is the best in the house. The bonus room (bedroom #5) houses a queen bed and a crib.
The lower terrace level of the house comes equipped with a billiard table, fooseball, and efficiency kitchen in the media room with a refrigerator, sink, and microwave. A huge sectional sofa anchors the media room in front of a 50' flat screen TV. In case you want to spread out and have a need for more beds, we have bedrooms #6 and #7 downstairs to use if your party doesn't want to sleep double. One room downstairs has twin-over-double bunk bed set and the second bedroom has two twin beds. This second bedroom also has an adjoining bathroom with a door to the terrace patio. This feature allows you to enter the bathroom from outside the house. It's really nice to immediately enter the bathroom and get cleaned up after a relaxing swim or exhilarating boat ride. A second full bath is located in the hallway for easy access from the media/gaming area or the first bedroom.
This house truly has it all. The kitchen is fully stocked, as well as the linen closets, for bed and bath. The dock is ready for your boat and water toys. We guarantee you will love your stay!

Great house and the third time we’ve stayed here. Plenty of space for our group of 14. On an awesome cove that goes out into the main lake for boating/kayaking purposes. Less than 10 minutes from any store you would need access to as well as restaurants. Angie is great at communication and responds quickly to any questions. We parked 3 SUVs, a Mini Van, and my boat trailer in the driveway and still had plenty of room for additional parking. The boat ramp is only about 5 minutes down the road too for easy access. Great stay and will do it again!
This was a great place for a family reunion. Plenty of space for grownups to have their own rooms and cousins to bunk together. The dock and lake were perfect for swimming. We brought noodles and floats and had a great time. Only minor notes: most of the beds are extra firm and the bathrooms were only stocked with hand soap— no shampoo, conditioner, or body wash.
This was our 3rd time staying here - and our family of 11 had a great time! There was plenty of room with 7 bedrooms- 2 being downstairs. The furniture and bed linens are a bit dated and the pillows are pretty flat. There needs to be some kind of extra night stand in the master to hold phones plugged in and laptops etc. Kitchen is stocked pretty well although we bring some stuff of our own.Porch area could use some more comfy chairs and some foot rests as we spent a lot of time out there. (Couldn’t really sit out on deck in the evening because of the hornets flying around) The dock is roomy and easy to pull boat in and out and a lovely place to float. All that being said we probably won’t come back again because we really like to stay longer and there is a one week limited stay.
This property is perfect for our entire family.Huge front yard, tons of parking, easy access to the lake, close to all restaurants, shopping, etc but feels like you are in the country on a quiet dead end street.Perfect in every way.
It was our 4th straight year staying here and this house always is excellent.
Great location, easy access to the lake , double deck dock,.
Can’t wait to stay here again.

Thanks for your positive comments about our home. We are always thrilled to hear how our home helps families bond over a few days at the lake. We appreciate it!
5th year in a row staying at this house.
Easy access to the lake. Very convenient to restaurants, etc.
Everything you need to really enjoy being together for all ages.
Highly recommend this property !
I don't believe you can find a nicer home on Lake Lanier for rent! This beautiful home is nicely furnished and accommodates a large family with its 7 bedrooms. This is definitely a wonderful place to relax and enjoy family time. Highly recommend this place!
Perfect home for our family gathering. Everyone had their own space and quiet areas for napping children. The view of the lake is perfect and the dock was also nice for everyone to enjoy.

So nice of you to say. We love it when our home can function positively for everyone in a group. We loved having your group stay with us.
We had 9 people stay in the house, high school friends from over 40 years ago. The house is perfect for relaxing, cooking out, view of the lake, comfortable, clean and easy access to groceries, restaurants and golf courses while very private on the lake. Wonderful house and experience!

Thanks so much for choosing to stay with us again. The fact that you have stayed with us multiple times means so much to us. Thanks for your confidence in us to provide exactly what you need for your time away from home! Come back anytime!
Beautiful house on the lake. Remote and private yet convenient to grocery and everyday essentials.
Dock was center point of daytime fun for swimming and fishing.
Accommodations were just right for our large group. Plenty of room to enjoy meals, games, and relaxing.
Would recommend this property.
This was one if the nicest homes in which we have vacationed. The classic southern look is rich with all the features you could ask for. The proximity to the lake made it a hit with everyone. The grandchildren enjoyed fishing and swimming from the dock Wonderful ho.e!
We stayed at Angie’s property as a family reunion of sorts and the property was perfect. Beautiful home, great spot on the lake, excellent shopping within 10 minutes, and plenty to do. The house is very comfortable and easily fit our group of 15 (4 families). Highly recommended and Angie is quick to communicate if any questions or needs arise.

About the host
Hosted by Angie Smith
My family and I are native to Dawson County going back at least 5 generations. Our little corner of the world is very important to us and we would like the opportunity to show people from all over the country what a great hideaway we have in Dawsonville, Georgia. From the lakes to the mountains, and from Summer to Winter, we love it here and want to give others the chance to come to love it too.
Why they chose this property
For generations, my family has enjoyed Lake Lanier on this property that we are now listing for rent. In 2007, we began construction on this house on a lake lot that has been in our family for over 50 years. This new house was our attempt to better our property and provide others with an opportunity to enjoy what we have loved for years and years - Lake Lanier.
What makes this property unique
Our property is the perfect getaway for a number of different reasons. The home is large enough to host a sprawling family reunion, a business retreat for top executives, or a lake vacation for a smaller family who wants an intimate setting on Lake Lanier. In any weather, this property has something to offer - the great water activities of the late spring and summer, and the fall activities of the surrounding North Georgia Mountains.
No weddings or large parties. 15 guests total, including children and day visitors.
