About this property

Lake Martin home, lakefront, renovated house, no stairs- beach area

4 bedroom, 2 bath, sleeps 10
As seen on HGTV 's Lakefront Bargain Hunt: Renovation (Season 2, Episode 10 "Making Memories on Lake Martin")

Are you ready for some football???We are only 40 short minutes to Jordan Hare Stadium. Sitting around our firepit will be the perfect location to spend those Fall nights, watching the leaves change colors on the trees and reflecting on the lake.

There are NO STEPS on our property inside or out. It is on 1.3 acres in a quiet cove perfect for kayaking and swimming, but only minutes to big water and a boat launch at DARE Park.


We have two youth kayaks, 1 adult kayak, and one stand up paddleboard. These are available for everyone's use.

Inside, you will find an open floor plan with a view of the lake and backyard from most rooms. The master bedroom has a king bed. When you wake in the morning, the first thing you'll see is the lake glistening outside your window. In the master bath you will find a soaking tub . There is also a large shower with rainfall shower head and double vanity.

On the other side of the house are three other bedrooms and a bathroom. The guest bedroom (Shore Thang) has a queen size bed with a view of the lake. It is decorated in a nautical theme.

The bunk room is decorated in a "Lost Boys" theme with two sets of bunk beds.

The girls room is decorated with a mermaid theme and has a queen size bed.

The kitchen has island seating for 4 as well as a dining table that seats 6. Outside, you will find a HUGE backporch with a large sectional for napping and enjoying the lake breeze. Don't forget about our canoe light and ceiling fans.

We have outside cameras that monitor both entrances to the house as well as the driveway and parking areas. These are primarily for monitoring the house when no one is staying at the house. There are no cameras in the interior of the house. We will check the cameras if we get a complaint from a neighbor regarding a violation of our house rules.

A wonderful week

Our stay at this peaceful retreat was bittersweet, as it marked the end of our plains era. We chose to spend a week at the lake for graduati on. The was the perfect location, fordrives into Auburn. Publix ca graduation.

VERY cute property and house! Nice and quiet location overlooking the lake with a small beach. The back yard and covered porch is amazing! The inside was nice with a few cosmetic tweaks needed. The livingroom furniture isn’t the most comfortable and the sofa needs to be replaced, the beds are very firm. The owner is very communicative and quick to respond to messages. Example: We had an internet outage while there and she was proactive in letting us know that the provider had an outage and expected eta for restoration. All in all, I would absolutely rent this house again just for the location, the livingroom window view and the back porch (where we spent most of our time)!

Wonderful stay!

We stayed as a group of 10 and had plenty of room. Beautifully House with amazing covered back area with couch and dining table, so nice to have on this rainy weekend. Kids loved jumping off the dock and all the kayaks (5) and canoe (1) that were there. House is in a small nook of the lake so it feels like the kids have their own little pool safely away from boats. They were in the water all day and loved it. Fire pit was very nice as well. Great communication with owner that allowed us late check out. Would definitely come back!

Excellent lake house in a quiet area

We really enjoyed our week long stay, the house is located in quiet location. Our kids could swim right off the dock with no worries of boat traffic, perfect place for paddel boarding, and kayaking, property was well kept and clean. Looking forward to revisiting in the future.

Great time at Lake Martin!

We had a wonderful week at Lake Martin and thoroughly enjoyed the home. Our daughter was recovering from a sports injury, so the easy access from the car to both the house and lake was a major factor in choosing this property; something that's not always common at the lake. The house was clean, well-maintained, and well-stocked. We experienced one minor issue overnight, but the host responded promptly and resolved everything the next day. The lake view from the house is amazing, and we loved having the dock for our boat rental. We also appreciated the convenient location near restaurants, groceries, and marinas. It was fun looking through the before-and-after renovation photos. It is hard to believe it's the same house! The owners made excellent decisions with their updates.

My family and I enjoyed our stay! The location was great for teens and smaller children. We had ages 15,14,8, and 4. Our older grands loved the kayaks and we didn’t have to worry about boat traffic. There is no swing set or trampoline but must have been there years back. We had 9 people with plenty of room for everyone. My father enjoyed the views and drinking coffee on the back porch. The inside toys were a hit with the smaller grandchildren. We cooked and ate every meal at the house. The grill is charcoal. There is no pantry so we kept our non perishable grocery items in the hard plastic traveling boxes. The boat slip was nice and convenient to go out to the larger areas of the lake. The boat launch is just minutes down the road. The views were amazing. We had a great time and made wonderful memories! I hope to visit and vacation here again.

Quaint and Quiet

This was the perfect house for our little group. The outdoor area was the perfect spot to relax after a day in the water and the huge yard allowed the kids to run. Huge bonus there were no stairs to climb. The neighbors all seemed very nice and we really enjoyed all the neighborhood pups.

Great get away for a fun filled weekend on the lake

We had absolutely everything we needed to make my family’s stay perfect. From keeping the kids entertained while we pack the boat for the day. The play ground and trampoline was a blast for them. And the gorgeous back porch and great views to enjoy breakfast and dinner. Ease of access to the boat dock made it easy to load and unload. We will definitely stay again.

The best

This is our second time to stay here. We absolutely love this place. We used the kayak and paddle board and brought our owe paddle board. We so enjoyed our time here that we are already picking a week to come next year. The owners are the best. Due to the storm Debby we could not drive back to Florida. We contacted the owner Cheryl and she didn’t hesitate to allow us to stay another night and even said we could stay longer than that if we needed. Such a blessing. Thank

New Year Get-A-Way

We stayed for the weekend for a new years get away and had a great time. Even though it was too cold to swim, the property was great for the kids to run around and play. The play set was a nice bonus! The home was great to house both our families and we loved the open concept so we could all be together. The power went out at one point (no fault of anyone or owner) and the owner/manager reached out to check on us. Would recommend and would def stay again!

Great place!

We loved this property, the location on the lake was close to town and the marina, which was convenient since we brought a boat. We enjoyed the kayaks and paddleboard! I only deducted a star from the accuracy of the listing because the beach has worn away a bit and could use some more sand. I have a toddler that enjoys playing in the sand, so I wish there was more of a beach area. We also did not see a gas grill, only charcoal, so prepare for that if you’re going to cook. Other than that, we loved this house and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the lake!! :)

Great Stay on Lake Martin

After 9 years of family trips to the lake at the same property that is no longer available, we had to find a new home. This vacation rental proved to be a perfect replacement. It's location on the lake at the end of finger provided calm waters for kids (and adults) to play in the swim area on the property. There are 2 waverunner docks that were a nice extra so we didn't have to fool with tieing up every time. There is a marina a 5-10 ride that has 24 hour fuel pumps. Dadeville is a 10 minute drive for shopping. The boat ramp is 5 minutes away. By the boat ramp is a park with a huge beach area with perfectly calm water, flush toilets, picnic areas (covered and uncovered) with grills and a very nice play area for children. The home was well stocked with all the necessities. The kitchen was well stocked as well. The owner's were very responsive to messages and communication through all aspects of the rental period, both before and during our stay. The space was comfortable, everything worked as it should. I would say you can't go wrong with this vacation rental.
