A Cool Change Too, on Lake Lanier with a dock

Perfect space for families and for gathering to enjoy Lake Lanier! Our family's home is all about family & friends getting together and having fun. The spaces in the home are very socially engaging. Take a short 1-minute walk (100 yards on a moderate slope to the dock) to the lake in our quiet cove and go for an evening canoe. It's pretty special. Bring your own boat and tie up at the dock if you prefer. The home has amazingly fast internet, streaming media on the televisions, SONOS whole home audio system, games for the entire family, gas grill, multiple decks to enjoy the setting by the lake, pool table, and a kitchen that is very well appointed. At Lanier Vacation Rentals, our goal is to provide a 5-star experience beyond anything you would expect. As an added benefit, Lanier Vacation Rentals has partnered with a local pontoon boat company. Lanier Vacation Rentals Guests, have the opportunity to take advantage of a heavily discounted pontoon boat rental that can be delivered to your dock during your stay! Send us a note and let us know how we can make your experience 5-star!

89th Birthday Celebration

We were looking for a place where we could celebrate my mom’s 89th birthday. This home was perfect for size! It was very clean and provided games and a pool table for extra fun. We made several short trips to the dock where you could rent kayaks if you wanted. The hammock was extra relaxing and being outside in this beautiful area was icing on the cake!!! We would definitely rent again!!!!

Great location for Rest and relaxation m!

The house is well equipped. There was plenty to do and it was wonderful to watch the Deers roam around in the backyard. We even saw a beaver and I’ve never seen a beaver before and it’s natural habitat. This is a great place if you just love nature.

Great property, cool lake

Highly recommend the place if you're looking for a nice quiet cottage. Unfortunately the quay was unusable as water levels were too low to enjoy it, and it was covered with leaves and not cleaned for use. Im guessing its only usable in summer. In any case, the reste of the property was good.

College Graduation Celebration

We had a wonderful time, and the house was lovely. We played pool and watched football as well! We had assumed that we could walk the lake being that we were told that it was a 1 minute walk to get there. Other than that is was a great time!

Warm and Cozy

The home was perfect for our family! The upstairs was perfect for quiet time and the downstairs worked well for the younger kids to play as well as their parents to enjoy a game of pool or a movie. We will certainly stay again if we are in the area.

Great rental home

We enjoyed our stay! Scott was very communicative and answered any questions we had promptly. It's a bit of a hike down to the lake, but the paddleboards and kayak that were available were awesome! The kids loved their den downstairs with all the games, TV, pool table, and more.

A Great Stay

They thought of everything! The house was nice, it was clean which is always my main concern. Beds were comfortable. The kitchen seemed to have everything one would need. We were in town for a family gathering so we were never there long enough to cook or do much besides shower sleep and go again. There are all kinds of games. A great place to stay and relax. So much more pleasant than a hotel and you’re able to be outdoors on the deck and enjoy nature and fresh air. I’m glad we found it! We may stay there again sometime.

Granddaughter birthday

The home is so nice. Beds comfy lots of kids and adult games. We came to the area to attend family baptism and birthday party. Kitchen is small but very well stocked. Scott was quick to respond as I bothered him about TV instructions and Internet password. Only sadness was the lake water is down , dock sits in mud and we were unable to play at all out there 😢

Escape from Reality!

My family needed to relocate for a couple of days on short notice and Cool Change Too was the perfect solution! The house is quite charming and the owners have truly thought of everything. We were so impressed with the well appointed kitchen, super soft sheets, and awesome rec/game room. And, my autistic son loved the giant bean bag chair!! What could have been an inconvenience for my family turned into a wonderful mini-vacation. The peaceful surroundings allowed for total relaxation (which included deer watching) while still being convenient to shopping, restaurants, etc. This was my first experience with Vrbo and Lanier Vacation Rentals and the bar has been set very high!!

Packs it all in!

We were so impressed! The hosts think of everything...Spices, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, games galore! This house really felt like a home and we were so excited to have our families under one roof for the 4th. The bedrooms were comfortable with robes for all. The bathrooms were beautifully redone (shower in master, tub in guest). The kitchen is small but so well designed amd stocked, it almost more convenient than home. They aren't kidding about the internet, we had 3 adults working the whole week, and all the teenagers' phones attached and the tvs were still streaming the ballgames perfectly. The dock was great and with the kayak and 2 paddle boards, the teens were out of the house more than in. (The walk back up is no joke, but will keep the backside in shape and make tge calories worth it). The basement is probably the best hangout space we've ever seen. SO many games, tons of seating, great tv, darts, bar with mini-fridge, full shower bath, and a perfect teen bedroom with a place for them to chill or play video games. What really made the trip for us were the porches. They are wide and run the length of the house, top and bottom. Perfect place for sunning (or shading), eating, chatting around the firetable, grilling, or taking a nap on the hammock. The boys had an epic cornhole tournament! Our hosts were super helpful and responsive amd we will most certainly be back!!!
