About the host
Hosted by Mike and Karyn Lisk
Karyn & I have lived on Lake Lanier since June 2011. It's just the two of us and our Morkie, Izabella. We moved here from Johns Creek, just down the road, near Alpharetta. I am originally from Kannapolis, N.C. and Karyn was born & raised in Sarasota. I am an Appalachian State grad and Karyn split her time between FSU and U. of Tenn. We both love calling Lake Lanier our home and we look forward to sharing it with you.
