Lanier Island is beautiful. The Legacy Lodge is okay, we wouldn't go back. The toilet in our room took 5-6 flushes to clear even liquid waste. We notified the Cleaner, but it was not fixed. The floor in our room was seeping water right next to the bed. I asked the Cleaner if she could please mop it, thinking she missed it. I watched her mop it as we waited to leave and when we came back it was wet again. That's when I realized it was coming up from under the flooring. The next morning it was quite wet. The property over all needs refurbishing. The \"patio\" área off the room leaves a lot to be desired. Very pricy for the accommodations. Also, the shuttle driver seemed put out and not friendly. The wait staff at Bullfrog was excellent and very friendly!

On arrival the room sink was stopped up and it was not any trash bag in the room. On the second day that resort lost power but the resort manager Gloria was amazing and tried her best to accommodate me.

People like the breakfast. I thought it was no different than a smaller chain hotel continental breakfast. I would not go here for the breakfast. Nice and quiet place. Friendly and helpful staff.

Incredible property with wonderful amenities. It was just a stopover for us but we liked it so much we will plan a longer stay in the future.

The pool with Lake in the background won me over and in cooler weather, the fire pit would be enchanting. I had a great time swimming. We didn’t get to Margaritaville but it looks like a great entertainment spot.

Our room was spacious as was the bathroom and clean and comfortable. A small outdoor porch faced green space with lake beyond.

Here’s a polished, enthusiastic review you can post:

Our stay at Lake Lanier Islands Resort was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! The property is beautiful, well-maintained, and offers incredible views of the lake that made it easy to relax and unwind.

The staff was welcoming, friendly, and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed, and the entire resort had a peaceful, upscale atmosphere.

There was no shortage of things to do, from enjoying the lake and walking the grounds to dining on-site and taking in the scenery. Every interaction we had exceeded our expectations, and it was clear that the team takes great pride in creating a memorable guest experience.

If you’re looking for a weekend getaway, family vacation, or simply a place to recharge, I highly recommend Lake Lanier Islands Resort. We left already looking forward to our next visit. Five stars all the way!

room was updated and bed was comfortable. Nice balcony with lake view and firepits overlooking lake. Pool was crowded and no chairs available when I checked in at 3 until at least 7:30 that night. Resort needs more quiet areas near the lake to relax .

We love staying at Lanier Islands Resort!! We’ve been going for ten+ years, the pool is large, clean and refreshing. Bull frogs Resturant & Bar has a nice selection of food items, with options to dine inside/outside or pool side. It’s a great place to relax with friends or enjoy our grandchildren too! Highly recommend as the rooms are clean, cozy with views of the lake. While staying at the resort there are activities throughout the resort area including golfing, boating, huge waterpark and gaming rooms.

Staff is outstanding. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The villa room we stayed in needs a refresh. Shower took forever to heat up, then was set at a temp you could not increase for a hotter shower. Should have amenities like shower caps and wash cloths without asking. Room lighting was dim. Coffee maker was basic, only pods even for tea. For a resort expected more resort style amenities in the room.

Nice place, very put out with the staff whom were dismissive and unhelpful especially on Christmas. I was charged an additional and undisclosed $35 resort fee specifically because I “booked through Expedia.” Also an undisclosed $50 deposit. I attempted to ask about these as well as my VIP upgrades and was cut off with no explanation given. At breakfast I asked about the benefit and it’s charged to the room and you must eat in dining room. I’m traveling alone with a pet I can’t leave alone in the room. “Oh well.” Sums up the overall mood of all staff. Won’t ever return.

Breakfast at Sidney’s was perfection with wonderful staff and a million dollar view. Villa scenery was beautiful with deer often walking by the patio. Personnel throughout the resort were friendly, knowledgeable and kind. Late October appears to be off-season with most activities and eateries closed. Only golf, pool, and 2 restaurants were open. Very few guests around/- almost like a ghost town. They say the resort is lively in summer. The furnishings could benefit from an update and the Margaritaville Shark’s Fin was soggy and salty (very low quality). Although desolate (e.g., less than 12 people), Margaritaville has a fun atmosphere and infrastructure.

Be sure to call the resort before booking to get all the extra $$ due that arent listed here & some features like the BEACH water accessibility- It was off limits.. smh. We payed almost an addit'l big $$ 4 parking. (WHY???) After an issue. We ended staying in one of the lake houses. (Thanks to the Manger- Shes a sweetheart) But after reviewing another I realized we were in an older model. Really plain. Black and grey.. no pics on the walls. The feeling wasnt welcoming at all.. BUT The bed was comfortable tho. Most staff was great.. However there were 3 instances where we experienced off-track-racism/ sexism...1. Upon checking in.. the 1st lady was unnecessarily rude. 2. At the poolside bar, with the male bar tender avoided me at every turn and tended to the Caucasian or other race folk. I sat and called out to him numerous times for like 20 mins.. He would even come near me and would still act like i didnt exist. I had to go get my husband. And ONLY THEN. Once my husband spoke, did he pay attention & take my order. I felt degraded. Didnt know whether it was a female thing or a racist thing i had just went thru. Also we were told that breakfast ends at 12 by front desk..It actually ends at 11 on wknddays 10:30 on wkdays. The guy greated us with a rejection warning but was so welcoming to a Caucasian guy that arrived 20 mins after it was to be over with. Smh. Oh yeah. Bring your insect spray. There are huge spiders everywhere. Even with all that. We still relaxed tho. So ok.

I liked the view and how clean it was. Despite this, the room had a wet dog smell. The A/C was on 68, but it felt muggy in the room. There weren’t many channel options on the TV. It seemed like an old TV, based on the fact that the screen randomly froze and there were images superimposed over other images, at times. Part of the “resort fees” was access to the saltwater pool “24/7”, but it was closed when we went to swim. Overall, I spent a lot for what was ultimately a disappointing experience. My stays at Hilton properties half the price have been more enjoyable.

This isn't my first time staying here. I’ve visited before with my family because I love the lake and have good memories. This time, I made a last-minute reservation to spend some quiet time alone after going through a difficult experience. The hotel seems to be in a similar condition as before, but I was disappointed to find that the walking paths for solo strolls weren’t properly maintained. Most of all, I was frustrated by a billing error in which I was charged twice for an unexpected fee, and even after calling, the issue wasn’t properly resolved.

Lake > Pool

The staff was friendly and the service was good. We checked in for a night and to spend the day at the pool. The pool was very dirty. Maybe the filter wasn't working? Garbage, bugs, leaves, hair floating in the pool. Kids floating eating ice cream.

When I checked in, I asked if there was any charge for later checkout, they told me “no” then the next morning I got a notification that my credit card was charged $122 for late checkout. I complained to the registration desk and they reduced it to $37.50 for the resort fee but I had already paid that with my Expedia fees. I was dissatisfied with Legacy Lodge and I don’t recommend them to anyone. I will not be booking any future nights with them.

We enjoyed the door staff,something so simple like opening the door and greeting is something that sets hotels apart from others. The transportation from the hotel to our boat parked at the marina was a great amenity as well. One thing I would like to point out is the lackluster food at bullfrogs. The lodge really has everything you need except good food. The food just never seemed to be fresh. Having better dining options would prevent guest from leaving the property for a meal.

Loved the option to stay in a villa. Much more quiet, but still close to the lodge where the pool and restaurants are located. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Our room was cleaned to perfection on arrival and when house keeping came through. This is a hidden gem for sure. So many options for everyone from golf, to a decent sized arcade, large water park, many options for dining. We will likely be back in the future.
