Nirvana! I am a very happy repeat client! Can not say enough good things about my relaxing stay here. I departed a new woman: happy, calm, at peace. Lovely landscaping, blooming flowers, chirping birds, warm sunshine, fresh air, bubbling jacuzzi, soothing sauna...just what I needed. Thank you, perfect hosts Luann & Sam!

The stay was nice. Sam and Luann are great host. Though the Vrbo is under where they lice, we didn't notice them at all. Unless you see the truck in the drive way you don't know they're home. The pool and sauna are awesome. And even though we were by the lake, there were no bugs even in the yard.

We had such a great stay! The property was exactly as described—super clean, peaceful, and stocked with everything we needed. It felt like a home away from home, but even more fun. My 7-year-old gave it the ultimate rating: “Infinity Stars!” We’d definitely recommend!

Beautiful property!

My husband, toddler and I stayed here for our long weekend trip at Lake Lanier. This property was absolutely perfect! Everything was clean and tidy, and lots of activities at the house between the pool, hot tub, pool table, and lake! Property owners even left us a fresh batch of brownies along with a welcome note, which was much appreciated! We definitely plan on returning!

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely Lanier lake property. My husband and I took advantage of all the amenities including the hot tub, pool, sauna, & kayaks. He brought his fishing poles & caught bass fish one morning. So fun!!! We also watched college football from their large screen tv on Saturday afternoon. Beds were comfy with plenty of towels & washcloths. Check in was seamless & well lit entrance for our DIL since she arrived late the first night. The owners left yummy snacks & coffee for us. To clarify, this qproperty is located in a nice subdivision & this VRBO is an actually in a day light basement with its own entrance. But it’s very private & we did not see the owners. We would definitely stay here again & absolutely recommend if you will be in the Flowery Branch area.

Recent stay

We found this wonderful property for a last minute stay for my son't baseball tournament earlier this month. It was the perfect getaway retreat with a wonderful pool and jacuzzi, easy access to the lake with kayaks for us to enjoy, a pool table that kept us busy at the end of the day and very comfortable beds at night. We had a great time and hope to return next summer!

Perfect little getaway

I stayed at this property for a few days to reset and relax. The hosts were very kind and communicative when I reached out. Luann even left me a container of brownies and a handwritten note. They had all of the amenities and privacy I was looking for. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes, basic needs (olive oil, spices, ice, coffee, sugar). The pool and outdoor areas are clean and absolutely beautiful. There are grocery stores and restaurants nearby which made staying there even more convenient. I would absolutely come back!

About the host

Hosted by Luann Melaragno

Host profile image
My name is Luann and my husband's name is Sam. We have 4 kids and 8 grandkids. We are home bodies and have spent a lot of time making this house a home. I have a passion for interior decorating and gardening. Spending time on my patio surrounded by flowers is one of my favorite things to do! It was my dear friends' idea that we should rent our house out on Airbnb. She brought it to our attention that Lake Lanier is such a popular travel destination and our house would be such a treat for visitors to rent out during their stay. It was a no brainer for us to become hosts since we have been brainstorming on ways to make extra income for retirement and are very hospitable people. When this house came for sale we were just the people to pour into it to make it what it is today.

Why they chose this property

The moment we seen pictures of the house online we could envision putting our touch on it. The functional open floor plan layout was perfect for our family to gather and we knew one day it would be perfect to rent our to our guests too. It is conveniently located in a neighborhood close to amenities but you do not feel like you are in a neighborhood when you are there. The 1 acre wooded lot provides privacy and a peaceful environment. A short walk through the woods takes you back to the lake and that is what makes this house so special.

What makes this property unique

We call this property The Hidden Haven because it really is a hidden gem. Guests have full access to the private backyard which has lake access to Lake Lanier. It comes with a private beautiful pool, 6 person hot tub, slide, bar, pool table, sauna and work out room. Other house rentals provide a comfortable place to stay but Hidden Haven provides a peaceful, relaxing escape that we hope you enjoy as much as we do.
