"When we began home shopping on Lake Oconee we initially looked only at lakefront properties in one of the other large and well known gated communities. After months of viewing homes and, eating at the restaurants inside the community touring all of the amenities one thing became very noticeable. Everyone we met had so many complaints. On a whim we had our agent show us a home in Harbor Club. Immediately we noticed that there were people out and about walking their dogs or working in their yards, and almost everyone stopped and waved as we went by. That was totally different than the other community where we mostly got suspicious looks. As a “young” couple relative to the average homeowners here I guess we do stand out but everyone at Harbor Club that we met that day was just so friendly. We toured the facilities which are very nice, just on a smaller scale than the neighboring Community. We came here for the Lake, and personally I don’t use anything other than the gym which is nice. We decided to purchase the home in Harbor Club on the spot. That was 2 years ago and we have met great neighbors, enjoyed the Clubhouse restaurant as well as the seasonal Boathouse waterfront restaurant here in Harbor Club. It was surprising and great to see that the vast majority of residents are “full-timers” like us. Looking back we were initially so caught up in the thought of living in the more “famous” community that we nearly overlooked Harbor Club completely. Every day when I drive through the neighborhood on my way to work I am thankful we made the decision that we did. It has been great!"
