About this property

Country Cottage across the road from Weiss Lake- “Dandelion Cottage”

Clean, Two bedroom, one bathroom, with laundry room, grill, picnic table, fire pit and porch swing rustic cottage (around 1100 sq ft) in the country on a farm setting across the road from Weiss Lake. This cozy cottage is about three miles from Yellow Creek Falls and 12 minutes from the town of Centre, Alabama. Little River National Park is about a ten min drive also. Some guests enjoy fishing off the bank across the road. Home has a full kitchen, bar, and dining area. The main bedroom now has a king size bed and the smaller bedroom has a twin bed with a pullout trundle bed to allow for another twin size or make it into a king sized bed. There’s also a cot that is suitable for children or smaller adults. Furthermore, there’s a queen sleeper sofa in the living room and washer/dryer. There is NO wifi and limited tv channels but there is a DVD player and a few family friendly movies and games that are there for our guests to relax and enjoy. WiFi will be available after mid May!!! We have a table outside next to a water hose for cleaning your fish and plenty of easy parking for your vehicle, camper, or boat. It is not wheelchair accessible. A picnic table has been added. A small dog may be permitted with prior email approval and a fee. We also have an extra pasture if you need to rest your horses. Up to 8 guests total. More guests may be allowed with prior email approval. Absolutely NO smoking inside the house. There is a covered porch and plenty of outdoor space to smoke which is greatly appreciated.

Treasured Getaway

We enjoyed this stay very much. Once we arrived I was able to get into the kitchen to get a home cooked meal going quickly. The owner has thoughtfully organized the kitchen with everything needed to make this possible. What stood out the most about this adorable house was it being thoroughly clean. Thank you for having us and we hope to return soon to visit our son again.

Cozy cabin in a great location!

The cottage was a cozy stay during a chilly couple of days of rock climbing at nearby Sand Rock. The cottage was clean and warm, and the hosts were very kind and responsive. The cottage does not have internet, and spotty cell service, but I consider this to be a plus for a weekend away with the family! I would highly recommend it for families looking for an affordable trip to Northeast Alabama for a few days.

Country get away!

The cottage was great! Once I learned where the raised floor was, no problem! It was quiet and peaceful. Only one suggestion...tighten the handles on the skillets! The wobbly handles are a burn hazzard when cooking. Property manager was quick to respond. Great place for a relaxing get-away!!

Peace & Quiet near Everything We Love Alabama

This place is GREAT if you need Clean Country Quiet Time with great dining close by. A few reasons we didn’t want to leave was Fishing the best crappie lake in the SE (across the road) or doing outdoor adventures like rock climbing, waterfalls, caves, parks, water parks, etc… We enjoy visiting Trade Day Flea Market in Collinsville, about 10 minutes up the road.

Outdated and uncomfortable

Didnt expect luxury but did expect comfort. Beds were very uncomfortable. Pillows were lumpy and wore out. All the towels smelled mildewed. The chair/recliner was broken and could nit be pulled out from the wall. The couch was old and very uncomfortable. The bathroom toliet and tub made bubble sounds when the washer or dishwasher were running. Also u can barely see any of the lake from the porch but the donkey and horse did still make sitting outside peaceful. The place was clean for the most part but wouldnt recommend if u want to chill out in the living room or sleep in a comfortable bed. Also bring ur own pillows and towels...
