Tucked deep within a privately-gated wildlife sanctuary, this luxury lodge on Lake Lanier offers rare and extraordinary privacy and immersive tranquility that is impossible to replicate. The double-slip dock with party deck floats gently on big, deep water. With Corps property adjoining one entire side, your backyard expands into acres upon acres of untouched, protected land—creating your own haven of forest, wildlife, and lakefront serenity. From the moment you arrive, the estate unfolds like a woodland destination. Don’t miss the elevated vineyard overlook and herb garden parklet—two hidden retreats crafted for lingering sunsets, quiet conversations, and cozy fires beneath the stars. The landscaping is beautifully established yet intentionally low maintenance, allowing nature’s beauty to take center stage. Designed for those who love to entertain, the home delivers three levels of outdoor living with open-air and enclosed options. A custom, built-in bar anchors the huge main-level deck and sets the tone for unforgettable gatherings. Two more layers of screened porches and open decks allow for endless recreation. Inside, the floor plan is open, inviting, and unique in all the right ways. The great room stacked-stone fireplace rises as an architectural centerpiece, casting a warm glow over both intimate evenings and lively celebrations. The massive living room wing provides boundless wooded views and warm gathering space. Multiple primary suite options—including one on the main level and one on the terrace level—each feature spa-inspired slate showers, offering comfort and luxury for multigenerational living or hosting long-term guests. Additional special features include large picture windows for wildlife sighting, a built-in outdoor vent hood for grilling, smart home features throughout, low-voltage exterior lighting, quiet reading nooks, and so much more. A two-car oversized detached garage with upper-level storage adds practicality without compromising the lodge aesthetic. And throughout the home and grounds, lake views frame your daily life with the shimmer of North Georgia’s most beloved waters. This is more than a property—it's a breathtaking experience.
