Great Cabin by the Lake

This is a beautiful cabin by the lake, that was very quiet and restful, yet very close to so many outdoor activities. We really enjoyed our stay!

Cabin on the hill

The cabin on the hill was a nice retreat. The large yard was pleasant. The house was very nice. We enjoyed the fire pit. The location was near many hiking trails and state parks which was great for our family.

Retreat from the rain

We came to the area for the music festival that was rained out by a hurricane. The house was just perfect. The area was beautiful and we saw lots of Alabama we have never seen before. The house is cozy and away enough from the lake but close enough to still enjoy.

Short get away

My husband and I are on our way to the mid west for an annual deer hunt. Our son is working in a town near the cabin. We wanted to stop and see him for a couple of days. He stayed with us two of the three days we stayed. It was convenient to restaurants and groceries, as well as, exploring. The cabin is clean and comfortable.. The Carrs were very helpful and made us feel welcome

Nice place

The cabin was in a very nice location just off the lake with a nice yard, cabin itself was very fairly nice inside. Honestly our only complaint with the stay was there was dog hair everywhere.

This was such a clean and nice place for a few days fishing

No complaints. Great owners who have a very rustic place to rent. We really only used it for a place to park boat and shower and sleep but it’s secluded and we loved it! We will be back! Thanks Casey and Pat!

A quiet getaway

We had a great time staying at this property. My favorite part was the fully enclosed porch area, our toddler was able to play safely while we relaxed on the comfortable porch furniture nearby. The grill on site was convenient and perfectly overlooked the fire pit where we spent one night roasting s’more and grilling. Everything was nice, clean and peaceful. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

Annual Guntersville trip

We had a great stay. We take a yearly trip to Guntersville for bass fishing and this is the best accommodations we have had so far. It is located in a great location in middle of lake. The house is great and has everything you need. We hope to return next year.

Over all stay

Overall stay was good. Enjoyed being close to Waterfront store and dock area. The road going up to cabin was a little steep but was manageable. The porch cushions need to be upgraded as they had what seems to be dog hair on them but we used the rockers which was fine. We enjoyed our stay

Great private getaway

My buddies and I stayed the weekend for a golf trip and wanted to find a private cabin where we weren’t right on top of other people, and that’s exactly what we got with this property. A beautiful house with everything you need to cook meals at the house. We used the grill provided to cook steaks. There’s also a fire pit that’s great for relaxing around at night. 4k Smart tv with Roku in the living room for your entertainment needs. The water pressure in the shower is AMAZING. Not at all what you’d expect from a rental like this.

Spring break

I wasn’t gonna say anything, but Vrbo keeps asking me to leave a review. We cut our trip a day short because we just felt odd in the house. My husband and me book a lot of houses through VRBO over the years. This one was a little bit different. We were only given 5 towels to use for a family of 4 for 3 nights. We went to town to buy more towels so that we could continue our trip. The description of the house was a little deceiving because it said that it was on the lake under the details section, but it is near the lake. It also said there was a playground, but there wasn’t one on the property. The house had stains in the carpet bedrooms and some of the light switches. The baseboards in the bathroom were a little dirty. What made us feel a little odd is that there are master locks on two cabinets in the kitchen?? I have never seen this before. Normally, we always had full access to the house in previous rentals. Some of the house is locked up and you can’t access it. You can’t access the screen porch that’s upstairs. You can’t access any closets to hang your clothes. The traffic at night was so loud even with our sound machines because it’s near a highway. The cushions on the front porch were a covered in pollen, so we stayed inside. The picture shows multiple chairs at the fire pit, but there were only 3 upon arrival. I just dont understand all the locked doors. I wish I asked more questions.

Fishing Central

Nice place to stay plenty of room to stretch after being on water all day. Driveway is little steeper than picture shows but was fine. Previous storms may have washed gravel to high points at top, need little grade work and it would be smooth. Really nothing but good to say otherwise highly recommend!

June 2024

Cabin is as described as in the listing. Just a couple of things, there were light bulbs that needed to be replaced. It was super hot the weekend we were there. The air conditioning did not cool the upstairs where the bedrooms are. We were very thankful for the full size fans on the front porch as we used those upstairs to try to cool enough to sleep. There is not much water pressure in the upstairs shower. Other than that it was a great stay, beds are super comfortable.
