Escape to Nature's Serenity: Cozy Lake Lanier House with Remote Office

Thanks for the review and for staying with us. We’re glad you enjoyed the house overall. We appreciate the feedback about the driveway. For larger vehicles and trailers, many guests choose to park in the upper area near the entrance rather than driving down to the lower parking level, which usually makes maneuvering much easier. Thanks again for staying with us.

This was one of the most disrespectful and concerning guest experiences I’ve dealt with as a host. The group repeatedly pushed boundaries throughout the stay. At one point, there were discussions about using a neighboring property’s kayak without permission after already being told it did not belong to the rental. I had to make it explicitly clear that unauthorized use of neighboring property was not allowed. There were also serious concerns regarding behavior on the property itself. Evidence and reports indicated the backyard was being used for gun target practice activity, creating major safety and liability concerns for both the property and surrounding neighbors. Communication became increasingly hostile whenever requests or rules were enforced. Despite multiple accommodations made during the stay, including extending checkout several hours beyond the agreed checkout time, the interaction escalated into aggressive complaints and threatening messages. The property was also left in unacceptable condition at checkout, including garbage throughout the home, trash left outside, and unsanitary items left behind that required additional deep cleaning and sanitization before future guests could arrive. I have hosted guests for over 10 years and have never experienced a situation like this before. This is the first time I would strongly advise other hosts not to rent to a guest based on my experience. I have submitted all evidence to VRBO and forgone told them about them.
