Unplanned Stay Turned Future Getaway
Our stay at Dock Holliday turned out to be a much-needed escape after our home was severely damaged by Hurricane Helene. The property’s name, a clever nod to Doc Holliday, the legendary figure from Georgia, hints at the kind of rugged charm and character you can expect. Though I’m not a movie buff, I couldn’t help but appreciate the connection to history and adventure, and this place certainly lives up to that spirit.
Zac and Dawn, the owners, were incredible hosts, offering more than just a place to stay—they gave us a sense of home when we needed it most. And Renee, who handles the property’s upkeep, went above and beyond, even leaving a thoughtful gift after hearing about the storm damage to our house. Her genuine care for people was a bright spot during a tough time. Her attention to cleanliness is second to none. Good people recognize good people and the owner's and their team clearly know this.
The house itself had everything we needed, especially for the kids, who were able to unwind and enjoy activities like stand-up paddleboarding. My oldest daughter, Georgia, honed her skills on the water, and the space allowed us all to reconnect and find some peace amidst the chaos.
Gainesville and Lake Lanier offered the perfect backdrop for a temporary escape. We hadn’t considered this area for a quick getaway before, but our stay at Dock Holliday changed that. We’re now thinking of returning for future weekend retreats!
Very refreshing experience!
