Lake Martin Vibe Realty represents the next evolution of real estate service on Lake Martin. As a locally owned brokerage, it was created to deliver a more personalized, relationship-driven experience for buyers, sellers, and investors. Built on the foundation of one of the lake’s most accomplished teams, this new firm combines community roots, innovative marketing, and a deep understanding of the Lake Martin lifestyle.
This brokerage was formed with intention. It reflects a commitment to excellence, local expertise, and a client-first philosophy that defines everything we do.
More Than Property — It Is a Lifestyle

Lake Martin is not simply a destination for waterfront homes. It is a place where families reconnect and memories are made. Early mornings on glassy water.Afternoons filled with boating and wakeboarding. Sunsets reflected across 41,000 acres of pristine water. Evenings gathered outdoors with friends and family.
With approximately 880 miles of shoreline, Lake Martin stands as one of the Southeast’s most sought-after markets for second homes, retirement living, and long-term investment property. The balance of recreation and relaxation creates a rhythm unique to this region. We call it the Lake Martin vibe.
Lake Martin Vibe Realty was designed to serve clients who want to be part of that rhythm.
A Leadership Team with Proven Success
At the center of the brokerage are Windy Carter and Mindy McWhirter, widely respected Lake Martin real estate agents known for consistent performance and strong client advocacy. Their reputation has been built on integrity, strategic marketing, and lasting relationships.
They are joined by Michael Carter and Chad McWhirter, experienced real estate professionals who share deep family and community ties to the area. Together, they have created a collaborative, family-led brokerage grounded in service and accountability.
Additional agents Haley McKelvey and Landry Carter bring valuable market insight and energy to the team. Property management and rental services are led by Heather Carr, Leeatra Vaughn, and Elise McKinley, all licensed agents with extensive experience serving Lake Martin property owners and guests.
This structure allows Lake Martin Vibe Realty to offer seamless service across buying, selling, and vacation rental management.
