Lake Lanier Boat Tour Of Johnson Creek, Lathem Bay, Taylor Creek, War Hill & More!

These last few weekends have been absolutely gorgeous on Lake Lanier! Nothing disappointing whatsoever, especially if you're into boating once the weather cools down. I'm really getting convinced that this is my favorite time of year! Most of the weekenders seem to have tapered back in their visits to the lake as they focus more on school activities with the kids, college football, pro football, and other events.

This makes for a great boating experience on the lake. We were able to escape this past weekend and get out a little bit while the weather was cooler and the day was picture perfect. We took our old Sea Ray out for a run. We started in Johnson Creek, headed out to Lathem Bay, then on to the Chestatee River, to Taylor Creek, over to War Hill Park and back again. Check out our latest Lake Lanier boat tour video below. It clearly shows how beautiful the weather is and how few boats are actually out on the water. If you get a chance to get out and enjoy the lake, now is one of the best times to do so. Enjoy!

Friday Evening Sunsets On Lake Lanier!

Our Friday evening walk included two very different sunsets along our peninsula.  There is the bay side sunset on Lathem Bay, and there is the cove side sunset on Johnson Creek!  I prefer them both in no particular order! (-:  Which do you prefer?

I am sure that most of you prefer the sunset on Lathem Bay!  However, the sunrise on Johnson Creek is always a winner!

Come Along On A Short Boat Ride Of Johnson Creek In Gainesville, Georgia On Lake Lanier!

Come along on a short boat ride of Johnson Creek in Gainesville, Georgia on Lake Lanier.  This brief video will give you a quick view of the deep water cove, waterfront, boat docks and the back of some of the homes in the area.  It was our first day out with the new camera mount, and there was a little bit of glare in the video.  Nevertheless, the views are still worth the ride along.

A Few Photos From Memorial Day At Lake Lanier! Johnson Creek, Thompson Creek, and Athens Boat Club!

Here are a few quick photos from our Memorial Day Monday at Lake Lanier. Its been a comfortable and enjoyable weekend, with only a few scattered showers but otherwise sunny skies. We took a late morning cruise over to Thompson Creek and made a visit to Athens Boat Club to gas up the boat.

Athens Boat Club has added a very nice new pavillion to house their snack shop and restrooms as well as a picnic area.  It is quite an impressive structure for the old Athens Boat Club!  You can see it in the distance in the first photo.  The following pics are from the area of Thompson Creek this morning around 11 o'clock. Of course the last photo is of our beloved old SeaRay in the slip at our dock on Johnson Creek.

Scenic Autumn Days Have Arrived At Lake Lanier! Here Are A Few Of Our Weekend Photos!

We had spectacular weather this weekend on Lake Lanier!  With tempreatures in the 70's during the day and high 50's at night, it just doesn't get much more comfortable for boating on the lake.  Saturday was an especially beautiful day, and one that we were able to take advantage of by being on the water.  Here are a few photos from our weekend travels!

Changing Colors And Temps Here At Lake Lanier!

Well, we had another great weekend out here on Lake Lanier.!  The weather is cooling off and Autumn is approaching quickly. The leaves are changing now, so it really makes it beautiful outside! This makes for perfect times to grill out and enjoy the outdoors. And we did that three days in a row! With temperatures in the mid seventies to low eighties during the day and falling into the low sixties and high fifties at night, dining outside is quite enjoyable.  Even though it was a bit overcast and cloudy most of the weekend, we were able to take the boat out for an enjoyable ride up to Thomson Creek in Dawsonville. Here's a look at our boat dock on Johnson creek.
















And while I tried to get a shot of the fall leaves on our path to the lake, this photo turned out a little bit dark. But cool weather is heading in after two days of rain.  Peak color season for Autumn on lake Lanier is still a few weeks away.
















I don't think there is anything more beautiful than Autumn on Lake Lanier! Stay tuned for more photos as we expect to be out on the lake more often in the upcoming weeks!

Today In Lake Lanier Real Estate!

It's been a beautiful weekend here at Lake Lanier.  The weather is cooling off a bit, which means it is now more comfortable to be out on the boat, or grilling, or just walking the shoreline.  Yesterday, we did quite a bit of walking near the lake.  During the Fall, the lake level usually drops a bit and this year has been no different.  A low lake level, doesn't mean that the lake is not usable, however.  Today, Lake Lanier is nearly down ten feet from full pool.  Still, we typically use these times to walk the shoreline more frequently as the lower water level provides a wider area of dry lake bed to walk on near the water.  Also, Fall is a great time to fish Lake Lanier, especially with the lower water level.  We tend to engage in both of these activities as water levels drop.  Here's a photo from yesterday's walk, as the clouds rolled in on Johnson Creek in the evening.  We didn't get any rain, but there's a good shot at some early this week.

Lake Lanier Photos From Today's Boat Ride Near Dawsonville!

It's sure starting to feel like there is a touch of Autumn in the air here on Lake Lanier.  Temps today were in the low to mid 80's and the lake was incredible!  With schools back in session Lake Lanier was far less crowded today.  As a matter of fact, on most of our boat ride today, it seemed more like a week day than a Saturday!  We started out in Gainesville at about 2:30 P.M. and headed north on the Chestatee River all of the way to Murrayville.  Simply gorgeous!  Here are a few photos from our trip!  With these temps and a quiet lake, we'll be back out tomorrow for some more incredible Lake Lanier boating.  Now is one of the best times to enjoy the lake!

Lake Lanier Photos From Johnson Creek On Lake Lanier

Wow!  It was a hazy warm day today at Lake Lanier.  Now that we have hit Summer, the temperatures seem to be heading up.  I didn't even bother to hit the boat today.  Just decided to float in the water in the back of our cove at Johnson Creek on Lake Lanier.  Nice, relaxing, Lake Lanier waters!  Perfect for this hot, summer day!
