Harbor Landing
Nestled in the foothills of the Georgia Blue Ridge Mountains and fed by the Chattahoochee and Chestatee Rivers, Lake Sidney Lanier is named for Sidney Clopton Lanier, whose admiration of the area's scenic beauty inspired him to compose his famous "Song of the Chattahoochee".
Lake Lanier is one of America's favorite lakes. With seven and a half million visitors annually enjoying its recreational offerings, it has been the most visited Corps of Engineers project in the nation. One reason for the lake's popularity is its proximity to metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. A well-developed road network surrounds Lake Lanier, with several highways crossing the main body. Visitors can enjoy the city of Atlanta and, in a short 45-minute drive, can lose themselves in the tranquility at Lake Lanier.
Lake Lanier, impounded by Buford Dam, encompasses 38,000 surface acres of water with 690 miles of shoreline. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has developed and operates numerous public parks around the lake for camping and day-use activities.
Lake Lanier was host to the 1996 Centennial Olympic Rowing and Sprint/Canoe/Kayak Events, as well as the 1996 Paralympic Yachting events. These honors have helped make Lanier a world-class lake.

Outside on the expansive wooden deck is a gas grill and heated spa.
