Lake Martin Living is a premier, coffee-table lifestyle publication born every month out of love and admiration for the communities surrounding Lake Martin. While we proudly boast about our 44,000 acres of magnificent water in our sister publication Lake Magazine, Lake Martin Living focuses on the soul of the region - the communities, people and events that support the lake. The same quality magazine that you’ve grown to love in Lake Magazine is also a part of the newly redesigned Lake Martin Living. The difference in the two is the focus. Where Lake stays in tune with what’s happening directly on Lake Martin, Lake Martin Living is in the loop with the character and soul of the lake region. When you combine the features of Lake Martin Living with those of Lake Magazine, you'll quickly see why living on Lake Martin is the total package! We love Lake Martin and you will too!
