Cannon’s Point on Staci Drive, Lake Oconee | Greensboro GA Guide

Cannon’s Point is a handful of large waterfront properties on Staci Drive off Swords Road, on the Greene County side of Lake Oconee. Six addresses appear in the MLS record. There are no covenants on any of them and no property owners association. Lots run from about 1.2 to 2.5 acres, most with private lake frontage, and several back onto protected land that will never be built.

The Gravel Road Is the Point

You turn off Swords Road onto gravel, and then onto Staci Drive, which is county-maintained. One listing described it better than I can: your tires hit the gentle sound of gravel and the hectic noise of the day melts away.
That gravel does real work. It keeps casual traffic out, it signals to anyone who wanders down it that they have left the paved lake, and it is a large part of why properties here feel considerably more private than their acreage alone would suggest. If you want a manicured entrance monument and a paved approach, this is not your street. If you want the opposite, there are not many places left on Lake Oconee that offer it with this much water.

Quick Facts

No Covenants, No POA

Every one of the nine MLS records for Staci Drive shows no covenants, and none carries a property owners association. That is genuinely rare on this lake and it cuts both ways.
In your favour: nobody tells you what colour to paint the house, how long a boat can sit in the driveway, or whether you can put up a workshop. There are no dues, no assessments, and no board. The properties here reflect that — a 1984 house next to a 2016 build next to a site with two separate homes on it.
Against you: nobody tells your neighbour either. Without covenants you have no architectural control and no mechanism to compel anyone to maintain anything. On a street of six addresses with mature owners that has not been a problem. On a larger street it would be a different calculation. Look at what is actually next door and be honest with yourself about whether you would still be happy if it changed hands.

Protected Land Behind Several Lots

This is the detail I would want a buyer to understand. Listings on Staci Drive describe properties bordering the Oconee National Forest, and one at the end of a cove backing onto roughly 510 acres of state-owned property.
Protected federal and state land behind a lot means no future subdivision, no clearing, and no neighbour’s roofline appearing in five years. On a lake where the usual anxiety is what gets built on the parcel behind you, that is worth more than it costs — and it is not something a developer can add later.
Not every lot on the street backs onto it, so confirm for the specific property rather than assuming.

The Water

Seven of nine records show private lake frontage. The two records that state a figure show 229 and 240 feet, which is substantial. Listings mention a wharf dock, a maximum-size dock permission, and a private peninsula lot.
Two separate listings describe an easy, level walk down to the dock, which on a lake with a lot of steep shoreline is worth noticing. One home is described as looking out over 180 degrees of water.
Depth is the open question. Only one record on the street states a figure and it shows five feet. That is a single dock, not a street average, and very few listings on this lake record depth at all. If you are bringing a larger boat, have the depth measured at the specific dock rather than working from anything published.

What Has Sold Here

Five recorded sales between April 2021 and July 2025, from $430,000 to $730,000, with a median of $525,000.
One property shows the trajectory clearly. 1550 Staci Drive sold at $650,000 in May 2022 and again at $730,000 in July 2025 — up about 12 percent in three years, and the second sale went under contract in a single day.
Median time on market across the street is 58 days, though the range runs from that one-day sale out to 199.

Where the Ceiling Is Being Tested

Two properties are currently asking well above anything the street has produced.
A 1984 home on a private peninsula lot of about 1.88 acres, marketed with maximum-size dock permissions, has been asking $968,000 for 175 days. And a site carrying two separate lakefront homes — a main house of roughly 3,300 square feet and a second 1982 cottage of about 1,300, with 229 feet of frontage — is asking $1,500,000. That same property was previously withdrawn at $725,000.
The honest read: Staci Drive has demonstrated the $430,000 to $730,000 range. Nothing above that has closed yet. Those two listings are asking two to three times the street median, and whether the market supports it will be the most informative thing to happen here in years. If you are selling on this street, watch what those two do before you price.

Who Cannon’s Point Suits

Buyers who want acreage, privacy and water without a board, a gate or an assessment, and who are not troubled by gravel. The combination of one to two and a half acres, private frontage, protected land behind several lots and zero covenants does not exist in any of the planned communities at any price.
It suits you less well if you want architectural consistency among your neighbours, a paved approach, community amenities, or the reassurance of a deep sales history. Six addresses means the comparables are thin and a single transaction moves them.
