High school friends reunion
Dandelion Lane was the perfect place for our reunion. We had an event in Flowery Branch, within easy driving distance. The house is three levels, with conversation area on each level. The outdoor space is beautiful and well-appointed (firepit, grill, seating), with a beautiful view of lake, woods and sunrise. The perfect place to spend days of quiet with friends or family.
