Your Lakehouse. A Proper Dinner.

You didn't rent a lakehouse to spend the evening at a Publix in Gainesville. We bring the full private chef experience to your property — grocery run, cooking, plating, service, and a spotless kitchen when we leave. Boating, wakeboarding, fishing, wine tasting at Chateau Elan — we work around your day on the water.

  • Custom menu built around your group, lakehouse kitchen, and the season
  • Chef Rob personally cooks and paces the meal at your property
  • Dock dinners, deck service, and sunset lakeside plating
  • Full kitchen reset — you wake up to a clean lakehouse

Lake Lanier Private Chef FAQs

How do I hire a private chef for my Lake Lanier lakehouse?

Send us your lakehouse address, dates, and guest count through the booking form or text 470-785-7180. We'll confirm availability and send a custom menu proposal — usually within 24 hours.

How much does a private chef cost at Lake Lanier?

Most lakehouse dinners start at $250 per person with a 2-guest minimum, plus a travel fee for properties more than 30 miles from Gainesville. You'll receive a clear, line-item proposal before any payment.

Do you serve vacation rentals outside of Gainesville?

Yes. We regularly cook at rentals across Buford, Flowery Branch, Cumming, Sugar Hill, Dawsonville, Oakwood, and the Lanier Islands area.

Can I hire a private chef through Airbnb at Lake Lanier?

Absolutely. Most of our lakehouse bookings are at Airbnbs and VRBOs. We just need the address to confirm access and travel fee — the property doesn't need to be your own.

Can you do dock dinners or outdoor lakeside service?

Yes. Dock dinners, deck service, and sunset lakeside plating are some of our favorite Lanier setups. Share your layout and we'll design the flow.

Is a private chef worth it for a Lake Lanier trip?

For groups of 4+ who came to be on the water, yes. You skip grocery runs, restaurant reservations, and cleanup — and you actually get to sit on the dock with your people.

What types of events do you serve at Lake Lanier?

Lakehouse dinners, multi-night stays, birthdays, bachelorette weekends, corporate retreats, dock parties, anniversaries, and family reunions.
