Fabulous cove and location! Spacious 5 BR/4.5 BA, Outdoor Kitchen & Fire Pit
This spacious, sparkling clean house on Lake Lanier, which we call Happy Ours, is the perfect lake getaway. Whether you’re celebrating an occassion or just want to spend time with friends or family, there’s room to be comfortable here. Situated on an open cove but not on rough "big water", you will be thrilled you found Happy Ours.
This beautiful home has bedrooms and bathrooms on three different levels, which offers privacy to your group. The main living area has a vaulted ceiling, hardwood floors, and lots of natural light from the wall of windows that overlook the trees and the lake. There are also three separate decks, two of which are covered, and one has an outdoor kitchen and a fire pit.
Down at the lake you have full access to the large private dock with an upper sun deck and plenty of room for swimming, fishing, and just hanging out on the water. You are welcome to bring your own boat and leave it in one of the two slips. The path to the lake is well-maintained with a concrete sidewalk on the slope immediately behind the house and the remainder of the path being natural and relatively flat. Guests with mobility issues should consider if this path will work for them. Most folks do not have any issues.
The house is in a great location, just a short drive to downtown Gainesville and Lake Lanier Islands. If you’re in the mood to shop, you can visit the North Georgia Premium Outlets in Dawsonville. And there are lots of great restaurants in the area.
Check out this amazing house and start planning your next family gathering or friend retreat!

About the host
Hosted by Joni Tuttle - Owner/Broker of Parkside Realty, Inc.
We built this house as a second home while our kids were still in school. After downsizing from our home in Gwinnett county, we bought a smaller home around the bend and essentially get to enjoy the same great cove as our vacation rental. Living close by allows us to be extremely responsive to our rental guests and also enjoy one of the most central locations on Lake Lanier.
Why they chose this property
This is the second home we owned on Lake Lanier. The first one we built was further and the lot was quite steep. We desired a lot that was more gentle down to the lake, and this one fit the bill. No matter what the water levels are on the lake, we are able to move the dock so that we always have water and can get our boats in and out.
The house itself is great for couples as well as families since four of the five bedrooms have their own bathroom. It has been a wonderful house for family vacations.
What makes this property unique
There are many things we love about the house. The outdoor kitchen with the fire ring is one of our favorites. No matter what time of year, we use the outdoor grill and fire ring as a place to gather. The covered decks off the back of the house are good for meals and to sit and relax with a cup of coffee. The ceiling fans keep it a comfortable temperature in the warm months.
The cove where our dock is located makes a great spot to sit and watch people fish, tube or ski. It is a protected spot, yet very open without being in an area where the dock/boat gets knocked around. The location on the lake is convenient; we love to take the boat over to Pelican Pete's to eat and listen to music. There is always something to do and Gainesville is 10 minutes away if we want to go shopping or go to dinner.
