From a private river island in the North Georgia mountains to the quiet beaches of Florida's Forgotten Coast, every Porter Collection home is fully stocked, thoughtfully designed, and personally hosted.
Each destination has its own season and its own pace. Pick one to see the homes there.
An hour north of Atlanta, Lake Lanier brings private docks and long afternoons on the water. Farther into the mountains, Ellijay trades the lake for the Cartecay River, apple orchards and vineyards.
Cross your own bridge to a private island on the Cartecay River, then end the day around the fire pit with the water running past.
You're on lake time now. Swim, paddle or tie up the boat at your own dock, then settle into the hot tub as the sun drops behind the trees.
Built for gathering: a chef's kitchen with Café appliances, a movie and game room, a home gym, and a two-level dock minutes from boat ramps and vineyards.
No high-rises, no crowds: just wide beaches, bay sunsets and fresh oysters. Cape San Blas and Indian Pass sit on one of the last undeveloped stretches of the Gulf Coast.
Room for the whole crew, steps from the sand. Days move between the beach and the private pool; evenings end on a Gulf-view balcony.
Unobstructed Gulf views on one side, a peaceful lagoon on the other, and an easy walk to the Indian Pass Raw Bar for dinner.
Close to Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and the national park, yet tucked into the trees. Spend the day on the trails, then come back to a heated pool and sauna of your own.
A modern Smoky Mountain lodge made for slowing down together: swim in your private indoor pool any time of year, warm up in the Scandinavian sauna, and gather in the game lounge.
Two hours from New York City: walkable Saugerties on the Hudson, and the ski country between Windham and Hunter. Leaf season, ski season and long summer evenings.
Built in 1908 and renovated with care, right in the heart of Saugerties Village. Explore the shops and restaurants by day, then gather in the fenced backyard at night.
A mountain-modern retreat on 10 private acres with wide-open views, halfway between Windham and Hunter. Ski, hike, then regroup in the theater room.
No homes match all of those filters.
Kitchens ready to cook in, coffee for the morning, and the small things you'd usually forget, already there.
No call centers. You talk to the person who knows the house and the area, before and during your stay.
Booking here means no platform service fees, and a direct line to us for anything you need.
