About this property

Dock Holiday - Family Fun, Deep Water Dock w/ Roof Deck

Welcome to our family's lake house - Dock Holiday

UPDATE: We just added a brand new bathroom! There are now 2 bathrooms on the main level and 1 bathroom upstairs. The new bathroom upstairs has a vanity with 2 sinks, toilet, and tiled shower. We don't have pictures yet but will upload them as soon as we can.

Trade in your troubles and stress for a relaxing, fun-filled stay at Dock Holiday! Bask in the sun on the roof deck of our brand new, deep-water dock, or unwind in the shade underneath as the sounds of the water lull you to sleep. Bring or rent your own boat and jet skis and park them in safety. After spending a day on the water come recharge inside one of Lake Lanier's first lake-side homes, expanded and completely renovated in 2019!

Our house is jam packed with features:
- Expansive open floor plan with 20ft timber frame ceilings
- Chef's kitchen with high-end appliances and fully stocked with kitchenware and dishes
- Long farmhouse dining table with seating for 12, plus additional seating for 8 at the countertop bar
- Brand new everything: kitchen, bathrooms, fixtures, flooring, paint, doors and trim, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, furnishings, and dock
- Covered deck with gas grill
- Outdoor fire pit with grill grate for charcoal or wood-fired cooking


And don’t forget our fabulous dock!
- The largest dock you can build for a single home on Lake Lanier
- Covered slips available at no extra charge for a boat and up to 2 jet skis
- Huge roof deck on top for hanging out and enjoying the view
- Swim platform with easy access ladder
- Kayaks, paddle board, oars/paddles, and life jackets are included with your booking
- A large floating mat can be rented for an additional fee
- Plenty of space in the driveway or side yard to park your boat or jet ski trailer

As the county seat of Hall County, the historic town of Gainesville has lots to offer. With so much to do and see you may find yourself coming for the lake but staying for the local attractions and events. During your stay you’ll have access to our own personal guidebook for the best things to do and places to see, shop, and dine in the area. Most of the opportunities are just a short 20 minute drive from Dock Holiday.

What are you waiting for? The lake is calling!


Explanation of Fees:
All bookings are charged a $99 Administrative Fee (or Host Fee). VRBO settings would not let us name the fee for what it actually is, which is Damage Protection Insurance, so we had to call it an "administrative fee". This fee is in lieu of VRBO's own damage protection insurance and covers you for accidental damages to the house above and beyond your security deposit up to $3,000. Please see our Rental Agreement for further details. Also, VRBO automatically collects state and county taxes.

**SCAM NOTICE**
We only advertise our property on VRBO and through our own direct website: dockholidaylanier. If you see it listed anywhere else (i.e. on the website that is a list made by Craig) then it is a scam.

Wonderful Time
This house was perfect for our multi age family. The kayaks and paddle board were a real hit with the teens and mat a huge hit with the little ones. The kitchen/living area was perfect. Huge..Room for puzzles on the floor, watching golf, cooking with the family and legos on the table. Room for all. We have been laying on Lanier for 50 years and this was the most pleasant and least crowded area and most beautiful. Zac is an amazing communicator and the trip was flawless. We will be back!

Wonderful weekend get away
We had an amazing time relaxing amidst the gal foliage with beautiful views of the lake. Despite some chilly weather in the mornings, we still had an amazing time on the lake with the kayaks and paddle board, visiting an apple orchard, and hiking to see a nearby waterfall. I’d absolutely rent this property again!

Chopped Challenge..
The home was beautiful. We did a Chopped Challenge type event and it went beautifully. 3 different courses, 3 teams. I did bring all the necessary utensils and pans, but we wouldn’t have been able to do it without the beautiful double islands. We spent time on the dock and had a lovely night around the fire pit. The walk to the dock was invigorating on the way back, but it was worth it to enjoy the water. We had soooo much fun playing foosball. It was a wonderful experience.

About the host

Hosted by Zac and Dawn

Host profile image
Hi, we are Zac and Dawn and we have 5 wonderful kids, or a basketball team as some like to say. We purchased this property as a fixer-upper in 2018. It had sat vacant for a few years and we spent 8 months restoring and renovating it to make it into the gem it is today. We love coming here as a family and enjoying the relaxed pace of life on the lake. We treat the house (and our guests!) with the utmost care and courtesy and we hope your stay here sets the standard for all of your future vacations.
