Dock Holiday - Family Fun, Deep Water Dock w/ Roof Deck

Welcome to our family's lake house - Dock Holiday

UPDATE: We just added a brand new bathroom! There are now 2 bathrooms on the main level and 1 bathroom upstairs. The new bathroom upstairs has a vanity with 2 sinks, toilet, and tiled shower. We don't have pictures yet but will upload them as soon as we can.

Trade in your troubles and stress for a relaxing, fun-filled stay at Dock Holiday! Bask in the sun on the roof deck of our brand new, deep-water dock, or unwind in the shade underneath as the sounds of the water lull you to sleep. Bring or rent your own boat and jet skis and park them in safety. After spending a day on the water come recharge inside one of Lake Lanier's first lake-side homes, expanded and completely renovated in 2019!

Our house is jam packed with features:
- Expansive open floor plan with 20ft timber frame ceilings
- Chef's kitchen with high-end appliances and fully stocked with kitchenware and dishes
- Long farmhouse dining table with seating for 12, plus additional seating for 8 at the countertop bar
- Brand new everything: kitchen, bathrooms, fixtures, flooring, paint, doors and trim, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, furnishings, and dock
- Covered deck with gas grill
- Outdoor fire pit with grill grate for charcoal or wood-fired cooking


And don’t forget our fabulous dock!
- The largest dock you can build for a single home on Lake Lanier
- Covered slips available at no extra charge for a boat and up to 2 jet skis
- Huge roof deck on top for hanging out and enjoying the view
- Swim platform with easy access ladder
- Kayaks, paddle board, oars/paddles, and life jackets are included with your booking
- A large floating mat can be rented for an additional fee
- Plenty of space in the driveway or side yard to park your boat or jet ski trailer

As the county seat of Hall County, the historic town of Gainesville has lots to offer. With so much to do and see you may find yourself coming for the lake but staying for the local attractions and events. During your stay you’ll have access to our own personal guidebook for the best things to do and places to see, shop, and dine in the area. Most of the opportunities are just a short 20 minute drive from Dock Holiday.

What are you waiting for? The lake is calling!


Explanation of Fees:
All bookings are charged a $99 Administrative Fee (or Host Fee). VRBO settings would not let us name the fee for what it actually is, which is Damage Protection Insurance, so we had to call it an "administrative fee". This fee is in lieu of VRBO's own damage protection insurance and covers you for accidental damages to the house above and beyond your security deposit up to $3,000. Please see our Rental Agreement for further details. Also, VRBO automatically collects state and county taxes.

**SCAM NOTICE**
We only advertise our property on VRBO and through our own direct website: dockholidaylanier. If you see it listed anywhere else (i.e. on the website that is a list made by Craig) then it is a scam.

Beautiful house with great amenities.
This spacious home features generously sized bedrooms and bathrooms, high-quality appliances, and kitchen amenities. The deck and dock offer stunning views, and the well-equipped dock adds to the overall allure of the property. Nice linens and towels were provided. You will need to bring your own beach towels.

This was a fantastic visit to the lake. The property was clean and perfectly furnished/ decorated... the owner was available for questions and the dock was pristine... we rented a jet ski one day and we easily loaded and unloaded riders on the dock. We used the kayaks and paddle boads that were provided! We had fires and played board games in the evenings. Everything was absolutely perfect for a peaceful lake vacation!!! Thank you Dock Holiday!!!!

Wonderful Time
This house was perfect for our multi age family. The kayaks and paddle board were a real hit with the teens and mat a huge hit with the little ones. The kitchen/living area was perfect. Huge..Room for puzzles on the floor, watching golf, cooking with the family and legos on the table. Room for all. We have been laying on Lanier for 50 years and this was the most pleasant and least crowded area and most beautiful. Zac is an amazing communicator and the trip was flawless. We will be back!

Wonderful weekend get away
We had an amazing time relaxing amidst the gal foliage with beautiful views of the lake. Despite some chilly weather in the mornings, we still had an amazing time on the lake with the kayaks and paddle board, visiting an apple orchard, and hiking to see a nearby waterfall. I’d absolutely rent this property again!

Chopped Challenge..
The home was beautiful. We did a Chopped Challenge type event and it went beautifully. 3 different courses, 3 teams. I did bring all the necessary utensils and pans, but we wouldn’t have been able to do it without the beautiful double islands. We spent time on the dock and had a lovely night around the fire pit. The walk to the dock was invigorating on the way back, but it was worth it to enjoy the water. We had soooo much fun playing foosball. It was a wonderful experience.

Perfect private getaway just outside the city
This beautifully decorated and well-stocked Lakehouse is the perfect private getaway for a couple or the whole family, and it’s just outside the city! I never thought I would find a place so calm, peaceful, and secluded on Lake Lanier! I always thought I had to travel to one of the smaller lakes 3 to 4 hours from home. But this is a wonderful find and we would definitely be coming back! The house was perfectly clean, beautifully decorated, and extremely well stocked! I absolutely loved the mid century modern decor! We had everything that we needed. The listing is exactly as described. There are plenty of games for the kids, the cutest loft area with bunkbeds for them to sleep. The kids loves playing foosball up in the loft as well. The fire pit was fantastic with plenty of wood for us to use. We made s’mores every night! The access to the lake was right outside your door and we had as much fun playing and swimming off the dock as we did renting a boat and going out on the lake! The cabin’s three kayaks and paddle board provided hours of fun for both us and the kids. The kids loved being able to take out their own kayak. This part of the lake was absolutely perfect. It’s in its own private cove with plenty of space to JetSki or boat. The hustle and bustle of Lake Lanier is nowhere near you at this part of the lake. We rented a boat and were perfectly comfortable trying to teach the kids how to ski right in front of the house with no big boats to worry about! The owners left us the cutest welcome basket with a bottle of wine and a sweet card, and the house is well stocked with the basics in the kitchen. It was nice of them to supply some coffee as well! It seems like a small touch but I absolutely loved that all of the bathrooms had liquid hand soap dispensers. I always thought that that was something lacking in rentals that makes such a big difference. We had a fantastic stay and will definitely come back! Thank you!
