About this property

Reel ‘em Inn - Guntersville Lake Waterfront Retreat for the Family and Fisherman

2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom Lakefront Cabin.
5 beds total (1 Queen bed & 4 twin beds).

Welcome to Reel 'em Inn, our home away from home, close to all the things in Guntersville & Scottsboro. Easy 8 mile drive to Goose Pond Colony Resort. The entire 2 story cabin is all yours to enjoy. We have sought out to equip our home to a high standard and to anticipate your needs for a cozy Lake-Front stay. This comfy cabin directly on Guntersville Lake has everything you will need to spend time fishing from the bank, enjoying #LakeLife or just relaxing on the lake-view porch or by the sprawling fire pit . With our hi-speed fiber internet, portable desk table, and cushy chairs, you can also work remote (telecommute) with ease and dependability. The cabin sits only steps away from the waters edge with panoramic views of, and easy access to, the lake via the flat sprawling backyard. Pura Smart Fragrance Diffuser added in September 2025. Remotely managed device emits calming, delicate scents for relaxation. One in living room and one upstairs. If you prefer not to have them in use, simply ignore them or unplug if you wish, but please plug back in at the end of your stay.

Access to the private, gated neighborhood boat ramp and community dock is included! The cabin offers an open 2 car garage with plenty of outlets and lights for your trailers and for keeping your boats ready to hit the water. Your truck and boat (even with PowerPoles) will easily fit in the garage with room to spare. The driveway is also flat, long and spacious to accommodate additional parking.

- Goose Pond Golf Resort, Marina, Restaurant, Boat Launch (popular Fishing and Tournament location)

Peaceful Getaway on Lake Guntersville

If you want to throw your kayaks right into the lake and do a little fishing, and stay in a charming, clean house with eagles, herons, and ospreys flying overhead this is the place! Downtown Guntersville with some good restaurants isn't far either. The hosts were so very accommodating as well.

Good location for a fishing getaway

Pleasant setting that is close to 2 boat ramps. Easy to park your boat under the covered area with good access to charge your batteries. 2 bathrooms are a plus with a full family of 6. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice little cabin in the lake…

The cabin was nice and we enjoyed our stay. We were a little disappointed that we didn’t have access to any firewood nor could we find any in town. The location and place was great though and we would recommend it to other family who might be in town visiting.

Relaxing getaway

It was the perfect size home for our family of six. We could fish, the younger kids safely played in the lake, the bigger kids played football. We gathered around the fire pit and enjoyed family meals. It’s in a quiet neighborhood. Perfect family time!

Crappie fisherman

Nice property with great view of the lake. House was very nice and clean. Owners were super to communicate with and were quick to respond to all messages. Carport was large and easily accommodated our deep V boat and F350 truck. Located between Scottsboro and Guntersville. Had a great stay and would stay here again.

Lake Guntersville Cabin

Cabin was cozy and nice with big water views of Lake Guntersville. It would have been nice if the cabin had cable or internet TV. We missed Game 1 and 2 of the World Series because we could not get Fox. 😢

Lakeside Heaven

Perfect lakeside cabin. Comfortably sleeps 6 but with 2 couches 8 is doable. Kitchen has all the necessities for cooking. Screened in back porch nice for relaxing outside or enjoy the firepit. It’s not a place with tons of room inside to spread out. We stayed on the lake or in the backyard area for most of our activities and used the cabin primarily for sleeping. It was perfect for our family of 6. Thank you Steve & Misty for allowing us to enjoy your lakeside cabin.

Very nice and peaceful

Although close to the water, it would have been nice to fish from the property. Beautiful views. Cabin was very nice... very clean. Would like to express one opinion... if you charge $100 for a cleaning fee, wouldn't expect to have to put dishes away, strip beds and clean the grill. Firewood would have been a nice touch.

7th Year Wedding Anniversary Trip

My wife and I stayed here for a week for our anniversary and we fished every day. The location is great and we were within 25 minutes of several boat ramps in and around Guntersville. The house has a overhang that was perfect for the boat which kept it dry and did not need to cover it each night. The overhang had an outlet to plug in the boat and the area was well lit. The neighborhood was very quiet and I felt comfortable leaving the boat outside knowing nothing would happen to it while we were out to dinner at night. My wife loved the view and enjoyed sitting out back drinking her coffee.

Why they chose this property

The pictures, reviews, and location all speak for themselves: The Reel 'em Inn is the getaway destination for our family and we look forward to sharing our little slice of paradise with you.

What makes this property unique

From the wide screened porch to the easy stroll to directly to the edge of the lake, this house had everything in between for us to enjoy with our little family. We love fishing and nature, and right from the start, we were able to spot and catch bass, catfish, bluegill - even huge crawfish from the gorgeous waters of the lake. We put them right back though, so come along, they are ready for you to catch and Reel 'em Inn!
