Thank you Jerry for the review. The lighting in the boat ports was put in for security and safety - but we will see what we can do to make the lighting better.

The cabin was perfect, clean, everything we needed for our fishing trip! The parking was great we could just pull through the car port so we didn’t have to unhook the boat if we didn’t want to. And there were several ramps close by. Communication was easy with quick responses!

Great place to stay

Perfect place for us to stay for our fishing trip. Very clean. Had fun hanging out at the common area playing cornhole after fishing all day. Went with a guide this trip but the awnings beside each cabin are a great idea if you bring your own boat.

Was in town for a fishing tournament. Cabin was perfect. Was 2 mins to a nice boat ramp. The covered carport was a huge plus with major ran 1/2 the week. Will definitely be back.

Fishing trip

Very close to launch. Great covered area for boat. It rained evenings and night so it was nice to have boat in dry area. 10 year old was occupied by playing basketball with others who were staying at MCV. Overall met our needs.

Great Hosts and very nicely set property

Very impressed with the communication. They were quick to return calls and texts and had everything set up nicely. Cabins were kid friendly and the fire pits had plenty of wood ready to do s’mores with the kids. We booked last minute and the overall set up is more aligned for anglers but definitely accommodated a last minute family trip for us. Everything was spotless and well maintained down to the brushed attached for cleaning the on property grills. Will definitely be visiting this property again!

ADVENTURE

This was our first tiny cabin adventure. Everything was very clean, and decor was right on theme. "Crankbait" cabin. The shower was awesome and the beds comfortable. The outside space was great with covered parking, fire pit, barbeque area, and peaceful surroundings. I noticed the beautiful sunset. Centrally located between Guntersville and Scottsboro with lots of accessible boat ramps to the lake was a plus for out kayaks. We really enjoyed ourselves. I would suggest, to eat at "50 taters" in Scottsboro. Good food. Thanks Mink Creek Village for a great weekend get-a-way.
