Yesterday afternoon I showed some waterfront homes and lots for sale in the Lake Martin neighborhoods of River Oaks and Stillwaters. I was to meet the couple at the old Lake Hill Restaurant on highway 280 in Alex City. Even though the restaurant no longer functions, it’s a great meeting spot because it’s right on 280, conspicuous, and close to the landmark of the River Bridge. The parking lot is always empty except for boats that River North Marina stores there.
While I was waiting I walked up to the top of the hill, near the front stoop of the building. It has been a while since I had been up there. It’s a pretty view and was a nice day, so I took some pictures.
Here’s a picture looking south, essentially downstream of the old Tallapoosa River way. My photo does not do justice of this old Lake Martin view:

Great shots of the waterfront homes. How are sales on the waterfront in Lake Martin these days? They’ve been picking up on Lake Washington in Seattle.
thanks, Chad. I’m glad to read the real estate market in the north Georgia Mountains is showing some positive signs…
