Friends Reunion

The property was exceptional. Home felt very welcoming. This home had plenty of room. All of us had an amazing time. The surrounding neighborhood was very quiet. It was relaxing to either sit on the patio or the deck to enjoy the views of the lake, it's wildlife, and the piece and quiet. Just about every night we sat around the fire pit to socialize and enjoy the stars. Outside the home, the local town has many offerings - Entertaining. Lake Lanier is only 12 miles away, offering a larger lake to enjoy boating or wave runners. Would highly recommend.

Family Fun !

So much to do here, special place. We fished everyday in the lake. Everyone caught fish. Cooking and eating was easy. The hot tub was great, cornhole in the front yard, pool at night downstairs. Plenty within 10 min drive; food, coffee, gas, meat market, dining, bait store. Unfortunately Mother Nature got in the way with awful Tstorms that knocked out the power for 36 hours. Owner was in constant contact with us during this mini crisis, purchased generator and fans to try and help out, couldn’t have asked for more. We had a great stay minus this uncontrollable hiccup that nobody could have prevented! Highly recommended!

Very unique and nice home!

We had a great stay in very nicely set up home. Lots of stuff to do but also very relaxing. There are homes near by but very private and rarely saw anyone. I would definitely rent again if we are back in Atlanta for travel ball or a Braves game. The only negative I could find was the cornhole bags were bad and one was missing. There was also one broken kayak paddle.

What makes this property unique

We have a 2 story home with a full basement that walks out to the spacious back yard flowing into the lake and beyond. (In the winter, you might be lucky to catch a glimpse of the horses on the peninsula across the way!) Aside the main house is the Carriage House which resembles a barn venue with silk curtains, weathered metal sheeting and twinkling lights for all occasions. This space is great for workshops, weddings, yoga sessions, reunions, or anything you can imagine there. Our imaginations encourage yours to RUN WILD!

The upper and lower firepits give even more areas for congregation, as do the many fun amenities on-site including pool and foos ball tables, cornhole and yard games, ping pong and fishing poles, kayaks and our deck-level hot tub complete with the view of the lake and all the nature it brings with. The house easily sleeps 12 and there are more couches available for those extra guests. Just down the road are activities for the whole family and as mentioned, just across the street is the Sawnee Mountain Nature Preserve with miles and miles of hiking and the historic and picturesque Indian Seats which allow you to see to the mountains of North Carolina on clear day!

Weddings, retreats, reunions, large groups and small are all welcome at The Retreat at Twin Lakes w/ owner approval. We offer 100 folding white chairs, rolling spools and LARGE workshop tables that double as bars and standing tables. We have tents and decorations, serving items, signs, and the little things that you may not even think about! It's a true DIY event without having to worry about toting your items and decorations or any additional rental fees or setup. We want you to take what is usually available for events from a 9 hour booking into a full weekend event for much (IF NOT WAY LESS!!!) of the same price!

We would love to host your event, special occasion, getaway, workshop, large or small retreat or anything you can think up....at The Retreat at Twin Lakes!
