Reflecting on Joy at Harbor Club

Friday, Dec 22, 2023  |  admin  |  At Home

As the holiday season arrives, our hearts are brimming with warmth and joy at Harbor Club on Lake Oconee. We find ourselves pausing to reflect on the incredible journey we’ve shared throughout the year. It’s been a remarkable 12 months at Harbor Club on Lake Oconee, filled with happiness, growth, and a sense of community that continues to blossom. As we gather to celebrate the holidays, let’s take a moment to revisit some of the highlights from this past year.

#1 Growing community = new friends and new neighbors 

Harbor Club on Lake Oconee is a thriving and dynamic community. The fact that there are currently over 40 homes under construction and an additional 60 approved new builds speaks volumes about its popularity and desirability among homebuyers. Being part of a warm, growing golf and lake community provides our residents with a beautiful environment full of friendly neighbors – over 80% of which are full-time. Plus, there’s a host of amenities that enhance their overall quality of life. And since Harbor Club is debt-free, residents are reassured of a long-term, stable future. 

#2 Incredible member events

Harbor Club hosts several events and activities throughout the year, much to the job of our residents and members. Trivia and Music Game Show nights continue to be a big draw, as do many golf tournaments. There were 22 golf events in October and 17 in November, including Collegiate, Junior, and GSGA, not to mention our popular Junior Golf Camp each summer. We’re proud to be the only golf course in Georgia’s Lake Country that allows this incredible caliber of outside play. Of course, holidays are great fun at Harbor Club, too. We had parties for Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Fourth of July (which also included a festive golf cart parade.) We had an amazing turnout for our annual Halloween celebration and trick-or-treating – some say it was the biggest in Harbor Club’s history. Our Christmas activities include our ever-popular Breakfast with Santa and Tacky Sweater Party. Harbor Club Real Estate also sponsored two fun events this year: a Shred Day and a Pickleball Tournament. Our Ladies League enjoyed multiple fun gatherings, and we had private wine dinners, too. Fitness classes now include 15 weekly options, helping keep everyone happy and healthy. 

#3 We’ve grown our team

Harbor Club was and continues to be busy adding new, fantastic people to our hardworking team. We’re thankful for all who have joined our ranks, including Courtney Barnett, General Manager of Clubhouse Restaurant (we have a blog post about her coming soon!), a new Sales Coordinator, Brooke Chandler, and a new Wedding and Event Coordinator, Gilly Francis.

#4 Unveiled a new website

HarborClub.com got a fantastic facelift earlier this year. Much hard work and effort was put into its design and creation, and we are grateful to everyone involved – especially the many Harbor Club residents who pitched in and are featured throughout the site.

#5 Awarded Best Clubhouse from Golf Lake Oconee

We are thrilled that Harbor Club on Lake Oconee recently won the Golf Lake Oconee Award for Best Clubhouse. Our clubhouse is a stunning example of Southern architecture, and it offers a variety of amenities to enjoy before, during, and after your round of golf. We’re so honored to receive this GLOEE (Golf Lake OconEE) award, and we thank all who voted for us. 

#6 Reintroduced a new Discovery Experience

Our new Discovery Experience offers the perfect way to see and learn more about our award-winning golf and lake community. When you schedule a Discovery Experience, you’ll play golf, enjoy a community tour, see beautiful new homes, meet lovely people, and enjoy a fantastic lunch with new friends. 

To those who have already discovered the enchantment of Harbor Club, we send festive, heartfelt wishes to you and your loved ones. We extend warm greetings to everyone in and around our community. May your days be filled with laughter, your homes with love, and your hearts with the season’s magic. Happy holidays from all of us at Harbor Club on Lake Oconee.
