About the host
Hosted by Anthony Wood
Anthony and Erynn started Southern Gem Properties with a vacation beach rental condo on Dauphin Island. We have gradually expanded and changed our properties to include large family gathering homes in the mountains and on the lake.
Why they chose this property
Privacy, and the stunning view you get when you walk in the front door (nearly 180 degree view of the lake). The home was extremely well maintained, had a fantastic layout, and we knew we could add comfortable stylish furnishings and amenities that guests would enjoy.
