River Lake Landing, Lake Oconee | Neighborhood Guide

River Lake Landing, also known as River Lake Place, is one of the more affordable ways to get into lakefront property on Lake Oconee, with modular and mobile homes not uncommon alongside site-built construction. It is a large subdivision, but homes here do not come to market often — and when they do, most sell well under $1 million, typically closer to $500,000.
Home builds span the late 1980s onward, in a genuine mix of styles and construction types. Some lots in the subdivision carry noticeably more shoreline than what is typical elsewhere on the lake, and the protected cove here is popular for swimming and watersports.
