About this property

Newly Updated Spacious Home on Quiet Deep Water Cove with Amazing Views!

Amazing lakefront home in Holidays Shores! This spacious home has everything you need for a perfect lake vacation! Situated on a quiet cove on deep water, this home is perfect for a large family or friends gathering! There is plenty of space for being together or spreading out for some quiet time. The main level kitchen and living area was completely renovated in 2024! The main level includes 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large fully equipped kitchen and a family room that opens onto a relaxing covered porch. There is a large (2292 Sq ft) finished basement downstairs which includes 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a large open game area/family room/bar and kitchen. Two french doors open to a large covered porch with a built-in grilling deck. There are two propane grills (one upstairs and one down stairs for your convenience). Three refrigerators with ice makers provide plenty of space for your food and beverages.

A walkway with steps and railing (see more details below) leads to a sunning deck, a waters edge shaded deck and a large dock. Bring your fishing gear as there is great fishing right off the dock! The dock also has a deep water ladder and 2 sets of steps leading into the water for easy access. The quiet cove is perfect for swimming, yet it is only approximately 300 ft from the main channel of the lake. Oconee Springs Park is just across the lake and is the perfect place to refuel your boat and get bait or other convenience store items.

There is plenty of paved parking in front of the house as well as a two car garage. Guests can enjoy access to the community center located only one mile down the street which has a boat ramp, playground, indoor workout center, basketball and pickle ball courts.

Recently the upper porch has been expanded to accommodate more seating. Pickets have been replaced with Hog Wire that doesn’t block your view. A grilling area was also added. The stairs have been updated and a walkway with steps and landings to provide a stress free walk to the lake. One of the boat bays has been floored for more shaded seating on the dock

Peaceful retreat

We had a great time at this beautiful home on Lake Sinclair. We wanted a vacation away from the stresses of life and this home did the job. The lake is full of fun activities, the house had ping pong, a basketball hoop, and darts to keep the kids busy when they weren't swimming and the kitchen was fully equipped with pots, pans, dishes, silverware and cooking utensils. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Spring Vacation

The house was great for accommodating several families. Having a small kitchen downstairs was very convenient for the teens and two adults who stayed there. The ping pong table was definitely a plus. Because we grilled almost every day, the upstairs porch was a bonus with a heater and a fire pit. The owner was very helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Retirement celebration

We really had a great time this weekend. The owner was always available and prompt. Everything we needed was on location. The board games, kayak, ping pong table and basketball globe really kept the family busy. We took our boat out, caught fish and enjoyed some family fun. The house was very spacious and we look forward to renting it again. Thanks to the owner!!!

Very Nice House

Tom is the man! He called the day before our trip to tell me all the details we needed to know about the house. He also called me once during the weekend we were there to see if we needed anything. This house is huge with 5 bedrooms,two hug living areas, two huge porches, and a very nice dock. This place is great for multiple families. We’ll definitely be staying here again!

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because Holiday Shores truly is a special place! It provides the perfect setting for a peaceful get away! We love being in a quiet area of the lake, yet not too far from the action of the main channel. Having the community center down the street with its boat ramp, pickle ball courts, basketball court and work out room is a huge bonus. We also love the convenience of having Oconee Springs Park not far across the lake where we can buy bait and refuel the boat. We think this neighborhood is a little piece of paradise!

What makes this property unique

Our property is located on deep water in a nice quiet cove with great neighbors. It is very spacious and comfortable. There is plenty of room to socialize or find a place for some alone time. Three king beds and one queen bed allow adults to have comfortable sleeping arrangements. The bunk room is perfect for kids and teens. Three refrigerators with ice makers are great for large groups and there is a grilling area upstairs and down. Several families have rented this house and another in the area that is very nice, and all the parties told me they spent most of their time at our house. Why? Because it was roomier, more comfortable and had a better layout. We hope you will enjoy it too!
