About the host
Hosted by Mark Culberson
We are a couple over 50 shall we say. We started renting a lake home over 15-18 years ago by offering it to customers and friends. Soon they asked if they could pay us to rent it. That evolved into us offering our lake home at very low and affordable rates so others could enjoy what we were so fortunate to have available. We believe that we continue to offer our lake home at a very competitive price and even below the market rate. We do this to cover cost like insurance and taxes and do not need to charge the highest rate possible and the home is not used as an income stream that we use to live on. The income covers cost and allows us to improve the home so that one day when we retire it will be a nice home to future guest and to when we can enjoy it full time.
Why they chose this property
We owned a lake front home in Cumming and on the south end near Bald Ridge Marina. We loved it and rented it short term for 18 years however it is on the south end and too far up Bald Ridge Creek. As you probably know as of April 18, 2019 it became illegal to rent a home on the lake in Forsyth for less than 30 days. So be aware of this. This gave us great experience in renting and it also made us realize the importance of living (or renting) a home closer to "mid lake" or half way between the south and north end of the lake. We have been thrilled with the location and find it so easy to get anywhere and explore the lake quickly and easily. It is also about 1/2 mile to the closest convenience store (and ramp) and can be within tons of retail, restaurants and shops within in 5 miles.
What makes this property unique
WiFi Signal can be picked up at the dock by our standard cell phone and laptop. That is convenient ! We have owned on the south end of the lake and also on the north end. The location of this house is perfect and one day it may be the home we retire to because it is what we consider to "in the middle of the lake", meaning half the lake is south of us and half to the north. Also our home/dock is not down a long creek or finger but instead about 100 yards from Big Water and the large Browns Bridge itself. One of the most fortunate things is that we have a small piece of land that juts out beside our dock and therefore blocks the wakes so our dock while super close to big water, it sits very calmly in the water and does not bob up and down and in fact has very little movement.
The house. We love the set up. While you walk in on the same level as the bedrooms and one of the dens that are all upstairs, you go to the lower level and all your awake time is spent there in the den and kitchen, There is lots of windows to the exterior so it is considered very bright and open. The laundry room and game room also with a bathroom are on this lower level. All of this has two sets of double doors out to the deck and a short walk to the lake. The dock and water can easily been seen from this lower level (and upper level of home).
