We recently stayed at this property for five months. It was like we were on vacation in a beautiful oak tree forest, plush with greenery, on a large lake. We had two docks with four boat slips available for fishing, swimming and boating, or just relaxing on the dock. The owner and operator, Gil Mende was very congenial and accommodating our whole stay and responded immediately to any request we had. Strongly recommend this facility for a wonderful vacation. Bring your boat!

A quiet and peaceful stay by the lake with a very responsive and accommodating host. The unit itself was recently updated and well equipped. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

My husband and I relocated to GA from TX and needed a short-term rental while we house hunted. I came across Gill’s place online and it worked out perfectly for us and our pets! Gill was so friendly, accommodating, and flexible during our stay. Our unit, B7, was stocked with everything we needed and fully equipped with a washer and dryer! The complex is is in a nice, private setting by the lake and my husband grilled out on the deck most evenings for dinner. It’s not always easy to find pet-friendly accommodations, so I especially appreciated that our pup and kitty were welcomed with open arms! My family and I would highly recommend staying at Gill’s place, GEM Properties, LLC! Thanks for everything, Gill!

My husband and I worked at NGMC for about a year, and stayed in unit B6 during that time. The commute time was about 20 minutes, so well within the 30 minute call range my husband. had. There are two docks associated with the property to enjoy some time sitting on the lake. Gill was very friendly and accommodating to any questions or concerns we had. The unit is clean, well stocked, and the beds are comfortable! We met so many friendly neighbors and dogs during our time there. We wouldn't hesitate to rent from Gill again if we were to return to Gainesville.

With the housing market so difficult to secure a home, we decided to have our new home built. Our nonrenewable lease (the market was so lucrative, they wanted to put it on the market) was up in our current house and we had no where to go while our house was being built. We found Gil's place on line and he was a life saver! We put practically everything that we owned in storage and our one month stay turned into a 3 months stay! Fully furnished Unit B7 had everything that we needed in a uniquely, nicely updated 1 bedroom condo, including a washer and dryer! Gil was so hospitable, flexible regarding our length of stay and checked in on us ever so often to make sure all was good. The unit walked out onto a large relaxing deck with a field of grass and trees perfect for our dog. We enjoyed our daily close walks to the lake. Very private. We met some great neighbors as well as some other fur babies for our dog to play with. We truly enjoyed our stay during our transition. We highly recommend Gil's condo for just the weekend or for any length of stay. Thank you, Gil!

I was relocating to start a new job at NEGMC, unable to find a rental home the hospital recommended I go to Gill’s website and contact him. He was my rescue hero and I couldn’t have been more fortunate to stay in Unit A1. I stayed for 6 months, Gil was not only my “landlord” but a dear friend whom I consider family. He can be counted on for anything you may need, responds immediately and could alway bring a smile to my face and make me laugh when I needed it most. If I ever come this way again this is the only place I’d want to be.

As travel nurses, we were looking for a 3 month rental property close to the hospital. We happened across Gills properties using furnished finders. From day one when we toured the property until the last day, (4 months later) Gill was more than accommodating, helpful and just an overall joy to have as a landlord. The property itself was the perfect getaway after every 12 hour shift. Quiet, somewhat secluded, clean, well maintained and especially beautiful during the fall months we were there. The dishwasher went out during our stay and Gill had a new one in and running within a few days. Other than that, we had zero issues and no complaints! We definitely recommend Gills properties and if we are ever in the area again we know exactly where we will be staying!

Gill was great for any accommodations needed during my stay. Worked at NE Georgia medical center. About a 15-20 minute commute on average. Stayed in Unit B7. The unit is bigger than photos show. Great place to stay!

Great 1 bedroom condo near the lake! I rented a unit for 2 months and I was very pleased with the unit and the amenities near by. The area feels very safe and the fellow unit renters were awesome which was a bonus!

Great 2 months in a perfect unit. It was peaceful, quiet, safe and beautiful views of Lake Lanier. The access to the water and large marina/restaurant next door is invaluable. We will be back!
