Haven't been to Lanier yet only lived in GA 2 years been going to the panhandle. We want to check out Lanier, is the Lanier Resort a good place to stay? Me Wife 2 kids and a donzi. Excited to check it out. Thank You Chris

Lake Lanier Islands is the resort. Plenty of great places all around the lake though.

Where would you recommend staying? Thank You Chris

The resort is top notch but can be pricey. Good ramps and marinas all around that have decent hotels nearby. The kids will love all the resort stuff though.

Ok great thanks you live on lanier, or used to? Chris

I lived there for many years. Now back in S. Fla but go back every chance I get.

I lived on the lake for 3 years and they remodeled the island after we moved. I've been back numerous times since the move. The resort and the entire island had a serious upgrade. Anybody will tell you it is totally worth the trip. Great lake for a weekend and exploring. Good restaurants on the south end and a couple locals type places on the Gainesville/Northern end.

And you guys don't forget the Pirates of Lanier Poker Run, fun for the whole family, July 18-21
