Peaceful Home on the Lake
We very much enjoyed our stay. The home was clean and had most everything we needed. Although we needed just one more bed for our group, we still had comfortable sleeping on the couch. The morning sunset was beautiful. We also thank Mark for stopping by to check in on us, and to let us know if we needed anything. The binder in the house with all information about the home and the area was also very helpful. Thank you, we hope we can visit again.

Fall Break Getaway
I just want to start out by saying that the pictures of this property don’t do it any justice. This was such a beautiful place to enjoy fall break with our children. It is so quiet and the people you do see are friendly. The property itself is something you would dream of for vacation. It is a little far from everything so if you are looking for that then this is the place for you! We enjoyed every bit of what was offered. We will definitely book again in the future!

What a view!
Peaceful tree lined street. Opened the door to the cabin to be greeted by a fantastic view of the water. Boat launch nearby so we could dock the boat for the weekend. Spacious cabin, super clean, comfortable beds, had everything we needed for a wonderful stay from a washer/dryer, fire pit and grill. Enjoyed morning coffee on the screened in porch listening to the birds. Our host Mark greeted us upon arrival. Very communicative too. Would highly recommend this property. The only regret, we didn’t bring our fishing gear. Next time!

Rural Alabama get away
This VRBO was wonderful! It was so clean, and i am super picky. It was one of the most, if not the most serene/peacful places i have ever stayed. It's a little out of the wat, but that's the point. I would recommend this place to anyone, especially one who is looking for a restful, peaceful escape. The only suggestion I would give, and this isnt to the Host, just grab whatever groceries you think you are going to want/need on the way. It's a bit of a drive to a grocery store if you check in first if you have had a long drive.

The house is lovely but the screened porch looking over the river really sets this house apart from most rentals. We enjoyed our stay and recommend this house. We hope to return to stay again.

Beautiful in Every Way
When my daughter and son-in-law moved, taking my grandchildren 15 hours away by car, this Sweetie (what my grandchildren call me) was distraught. We decided the only way we were going to get together this summer was to meet halfway, which, lucky for us, ended up being Athens, Alabama. This property looked like it would suit our needs and it ended up being perfect. The house was clean and had everything we needed and more. The furniture was comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our meals. The dock and kayaks made it possible to completely enjoy the lake. The swimmers, fishermen, and bird watchers were all equally happy. On top of that, Mark was a fantastic host. And to any Alabama natives reading this, we were blown away by the beauty of your state. We'll be back to Alabama and to this house!

Great place and great host! Don't miss this one!
This is a fantastic place to unwind and relax, plus just a short drive to the space center. A wonderful lake for fishing, swimming, kayaking, or just chilling on the dock. The house is top notch and our kids really loved the layout. Couldn't have made a better choice! Thanks for the memories!
