Lakeview Pointe, Lake Oconee | Neighborhood Guide
Lakeview Pointe is twenty townhomes on a point at the end of Lakeview Drive, looking out at one of the wider stretches of the main channel of Lake Oconee. Every unit comes with its own assigned boat slip.
It is a small, tightly run community and it works for a specific buyer: someone who wants deep water, a massive view, and a dock without owning a lawn, a seawall or a roof.

Start With the Dues
Dues run around $3,250 a year. What it covers is the reason people accept it. The association has recently replaced roofs, repainted the exteriors, reinforced the seawall and resurfaced both the docks and the roads. On lakefront property those are the four expensive things that eventually come due, and here they are somebody else’s problem to schedule and yours only to fund.
Against that, a detached lakefront house of similar size will cost you a roof, a seawall and a dock eventually, on your own timetable and out of your own pocket.
The grounds are manicured before each weekend, which tells you something about how the place is run.
Where Lakeview Pointe Is on Lake Oconee
Lakeview Pointe sits at the very end of Lakeview Drive, on a point in Putnam County. You come in off Highway 44 and drive through Lakeview Estates to reach it, so it is about as central as anywhere on the lake while still being the last thing on the road.
The new Publix is under five minutes, if that. The Highway 44 corridor with its restaurants and shops is at the front door.
The Slips Are the Point
Every unit has an assigned boat slip, available around the clock, and for most units it is a short walk from the door. On a lake where a great many condominium communities offer day docks or a waiting list, a permanent slip attached to the unit is the thing that separates this place from the rest.
There is also a community boat ramp and a private sandy beach. The beach is small and well kept rather than a stretch of shoreline, but it is there, and on a lake with very little public sand that counts for something.
The water in front is the main channel at one of its wider points. The views are open, long, and some of the best to be found at Lake Oconee. The larger of the two buildings looks across to Old Salem Park, so you can be assured that serene view is protected.
The Townhomes
All twenty were built in 2006 in a Craftsman style, three stories with terrace levels. Three and four bedrooms, generally right around 2,900 to 3,000 square feet.
A typical layout puts the main living level in the middle — great room with a stacked stone fireplace, dining area, kitchen with granite, and a covered deck facing the water. Bedrooms above. The terrace level below usually holds a second family room, another fireplace, a wet bar, a fourth bedroom and a covered patio that opens toward the slip.
End units are the ones people wait for. They get panoramic water views rather than a framed one, and they do not come up for sale often.
What It Sells For
Turnover here is low. Across the recent history of the community sales have climbed from the high $300,000s up to just over $700,000, and the recent end of that range is where the market now sits — the last two sales were in the high $500,000s and just over $700,000.
With twenty units and very few coming up in a given year, a buyer set on Lakeview Pointe should expect to wait.
No Short-Term Rentals
Lakeview Pointe does not allow short-term rentals, and listings here have stated it in capital letters.
If you are buying a lake property partly to rent it out, this is not the one. That is not a county question here or a permit you can apply for — the community itself prohibits it.
It keeps Lakeview Pointe as a peaceful retreat. Twenty units, no rotating weekend guests, and neighbors who are either living here or using it on the weekends themselves.
Who Lakeview Pointe Suits
It suits you if you want deep water, a permanent slip and open views without owning the maintenance that normally comes with them. The lock-and-leave case here is strong.
It suits you if you want to be minutes from the Publix and the Highway 44 corridor while living at the quiet end of a road.
It suits you less well if you want rental income, a yard, or the freedom to do what you like to the outside of your own building.
If the low-maintenance idea appeals but the open water does not, Carriage Cove is the other end of the same idea — townhomes tucked at the back of a quiet cove rather than out on a point facing the channel. Same freedom from a roof and a lawn, a completely different feel on the water. The full set is in the Lake Oconee condos and townhomes guide.
