As the third episode of Lakefront Bargain Hunt: Renovation's first season, "Georgia Reno on Their Minds" explores the journey of couple Angel and Clifton as they search for their ideal lakefront property in the Peach State. With a budget of $300,000 and a strong desire for ample outdoor space, the couple sets out to find a property that can serve as their new weekend retreat.
Their search begins in Lake Lanier, one of Georgia's most popular lakes for recreational activities. They take a look at a few properties, but quickly realize that these waterfront homes often come with a high price tag. Despite this, they're not deterred and are determined to find their dream home without breaking the bank.
The next property they visit is a fixer-upper located in Covington, Georgia. Although the home has potential, it is in dire need of some TLC. The couple must weigh the costs of renovating the property against their budget to determine whether it's a viable option. While the couple is hesitant about the amount of work and money the house will require, they ultimately agree that it has potential as a future lakefront escape.
Their final stop on the tour is a stunning, newly renovated property on Lake Arrowhead. The home has everything they could want in a lakefront property - an open floor plan, large windows overlooking the water, and ample outdoor space for entertaining. Despite being more expensive than their budget, the couple falls in love with the property and must decide whether to stretch their budget or keep searching for a more affordable option.
Once they've made their decision, the renovation process begins. The couple decides to purchase the fixer-upper in Covington, a decision they feel will allow them the ultimate flexibility and customization in their new lakefront home. They begin by removing walls and opening up the living space. The couple runs into a few unexpected hiccups throughout the renovation, but they persevere and ultimately create a space that suits their needs.
The final result is a beautiful lakefront property with plenty of outdoor living space, a comfortable living area, and a brand new kitchen. Throughout the renovation process, viewers are able to see the couple's personalities shine through. They work together to make important design decisions and handle unexpected issues with grace and humor.
