In an expansive but private cove overlooking a scenic view of tranquil blue waters of Lake Lanier, there is a luxurious sanctuary where time stands still.

Your guests can enjoy picturesque views from a spacious breakfast area or sit down in a more formal dining room at the 12 foot dining table. You can nestle in for a quiet conversation, a good book or a game of chess by a fireplace in the paneled, English-style library or the cozy rustic log-framed family room.
The master suite on the main level provides a private and spacious space with two sitting areas equipped with a wet bar, his and hers separate closets, a massive master bathroom with jacuzzi bath built into a travertine pedestal.
A curved set of stairs will lead you to the west wing of the upper level that hosts a cozy study and five unique luxuriously set private bedrooms, each equipped with its own separate full bath.

Through two sets of French doors, the indoor space blends beautifully with the lower terrace area overlooking the lake. A private hallway will lead you to another beautifully appointed bedroom with full bathroom privately tucked away.

Summary: We had a great time here. The place is spacious and well-maintained. The view is beautiful, the outdoor area is beautiful, and the house is just stunning. The whole property was behind private gates, so we could walk around and enjoy the pool and hot tub without worry. Will definitely keep this on the list of places I'd come back to and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation.
