Log Cabin
The house was amazing. There was plenty of room for everyone, never felt crowded. The beds were very comfortable. The photo albums documenting the entire construction of the log home were very interesting. The theater was a big hit and the pool table was the site of many intense games in the evening :) We had a great time here and would definitely come back.

Log house is amazing and location on the lake is perfect. Little ones loved the white sand beach across the lake. House was well stocked and had everything we needed. Owner was extremely responsive to all my questions and made the process effortless. Beds were very comfortable. Would like to see more outdoor seating to enjoy the amazing sunsets from the dock and the deck. This is a beautiful location on the lake.

Great place on the lake out of the main stream
We really liked the property. There wasn’t as many boats as are typically which made the water smooth for jet skis. Property is fairly close to the water. Would like to see a railing on the wall going to the lake. It is pretty steep and was difficult for my mom without something to hold on to. Great trip with extended family.

Beautiful home and lake - as described
Wonderful home to relax and enjoy quality time with family. 2 hours to Tuscaloosa for a campus visit and time with our student. Spring Break for other 2 high school sons. Kitchen was well stocked and communication with host was simple and clear. Check out procedures were some of the simplest we’ve experienced- we thought we were forgetting something. Chef Troy’s was a hit with the boys - French toast for dessert and fluffy pancakes over a waffle!

Beautiful home, & Wonderful stay!
We spent Christmas away from home for the first time as a family; as we also celebrated our parents' 49th wedding anniversary, and we are glad we did it in this home. It was also the coldest weekend of December, so most of our time was spent indoors... The grandparents enjoyed time at the fireplace and the grandkids had a blast playing video games downstairs and watching movies on the big screen. Excellent family movie collections that we all enjoyed! This home is great for hosting large families, Jason & his team did not spare any details to make those staying in their home comfortable. Everything you see in the pictures and much more. The dining table can seat 12 people and maybe squeeze two more (this was especially great for our Christmas dinner together). The view of the lake is priceless... Jason was responsive and we could not have asked for a better host. We take at least 3 family vacations a year and our vacation in this home ranks among one of our family's best vacations - and we will be looking to book this home again in the future hopefully in warmer weather. Thank you Jason & your family for being great hosts.
