ABOUT LAKE WEDOWEE AND THE BEARFOOT LODGE... Relax in style and enjoy this beautifully furnished and tastefully decorated, 3 Bedroom, 2 bath vacation home on one of the cleanest lakes in the Southeast. Approx 90 minutes from metro Atlanta or Birmingham, Lake Wedowee has been called Alabama's best kept secret... until the last few years.
Nestled in the foothills of the southern end of the Appalachian chain... Lake Wedowee is a mountain lake, affording gorgeous views of over 270 miles of shoreline... less than 25 percent of the lake has been developed, so there are plenty of places to find peace and quiet. Cruise the lake, head to Lakeside Marina for a meal or just drop the anchor in a quiet cove and relax. You can also enjoy some of the best fishing in the southeast! Cheaha State Park, with it's beautiful waterfalls and hiking trails, is less than 30 minutes away. Shop the antique stores in Wedowee or explore the caves at Cathedral caverns.
Our home has everything you need to enjoy a relaxing vacation in style! Two nearby boat ramps and your own private dock in the backyard. Two large porches and a waterside gazebo offer plenty of space for outdoor relaxing and dining. Our lot slopes gently down to the water which makes it easy to walk to the dock... plenty of room for kids to play and explore. Enjoy the hammock or the porch swing on the dock while the kids swim in our protected cove. FREE USE OF OUR 'OLD TOWN' 3-PERSON CANOE FOR GUESTS.
All towels, linens, dishes, and cooking utensils provided. We've tried to create a quiet peaceful, atmosphere where you can spend time with friends and family, with plenty of things to do together. Play a board game or read a book and relax. Or just sit out on the screened porch at night and listen to the symphony of frogs and crickets. We also have a nice home theater system, for watching movies or listening to music on DVD/CD. 'Kingsford' BBQ grill (charcoal) available for guest use.
Just 4 miles from downtown Wedowee. Minutes to grocery stores, movie rental, drugstore, and other shopping (Super Walmart a short drive away). You can now buy beer and wine in the local grocery stores (Yes... Wedowee/Randolph County is now 'wet'!). Several nice family style restaurants within 15-20 minutes including excellent barbeque, Mexican, Pizza, and 'Southern-style' cuisine... check out the popular 'Top-of-the-River' Restaurant in Anniston. Also, Lakeside Marina restaurant (for catfish, burgers, etc) is accessible by boat and has nice outdoor seating.

Great property!
We had a great time at the Bearfoot Lodge. The house was cozy and provided the perfection location for a relaxing weekend getaway. The owner was more than accommodating through the whole process and very responsive.

Hi Becky,
Thank you for choosing to stay at The Bearfoot Lodge and thank you for the review! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed your visit and hope you'll come again sometime!
The lake house was beautiful. We had a great time, especially playing ping pong. We encountered a few issues but our host was very responsive and handled them right away.
Great place easy to find
Satellite tv interrupted a lot
Distance to lake quite a few steps and
a bit rough by the lake
Owner very available to questions and very prompt
Over all GREAT. PLACE to stay

Great house and boat
Andy was easy to work with and very responsive. The instructions for the boat were very easy and everything was already coordinated with the marina upon our arrival. The house was as described and perfect for our needs.

Eric,
I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and I'm happy to hear everything went well. Thanks for the review as well. Thank you for choosing to stay at The Bearfoot Lodge!
Was perfect for a family! The only negative didn't have anything to do with the property! The reviews I read talked about good places to eat! We were there Sunday through Wednesday morning and nothing was open!
It was very comfortable for my entire family. We cooked easter dinner there. The water level in lake wedowee was down but we were told that up front. The piblic boat ramp is just down the road which was very convienent and the bait store is 5 minutes away. Also conveniently located. We would stay at this location again.

Wonderful Week at the lake!
We loved our stay here! The house was perfect for our family. So clean and had everything you could possibly need! We loved the boat! Exploring the lake and fishing was amazing. We made so many wonderful memories with our three boys! The house is in the back of a cove which was really nice, the kids could jump off of the dock and swim with no worries. Just a wonderful place! We really enjoyed it and will definitely be back!

Hi Rachel,
I'm happy to see that you all enjoyed your vacation! Thank you for choosing to stay at The Bearfoot Lodge and thank you for the review. I'd love to have you visit again anytime!
This place was amazing. There was plenty of room room for a large group. We enjoyed our stay so much. It was so serene and peaceful. The verge were beautiful and the fishing was great. The host was very helpful and the lady that come in behind us. Hell a lot of integrity I had left something very important and had been gone for an hour and she found it and put it back right where it was, I was very impressed and grateful I would stay here again
We were on a short family trip to visit my nephew at college.We had 9 people and enjoyed plenty of room for everyone. Blankets, towels & kitchen items were plentiful. Convenient for groceries & other needs. The setting is very peaceful & relaxing.The only recommendation I might suggest would be a tv in the common area downstairs. Our host was very attentive to questions & concerns. Would book again for sure.

I'm very confused as to why you would leave this review. We provide a nice, clean place for our guests as our many other reviews will attest. If there were anything needing attention I would have gladly taken care of it if you had let me know. The outside of the property is cleaned regularly but this is a lake house. There will always be spiderwebs here and there no matter how many times you clean them because bugs live at the lake. If there was bird droppings at the dock I certainly would have had the cleaning lady come back to take care of it. As for the photos, the only difference is I have upgraded the living room furniture with reclining couch and loveseat. I apologize that you feel like it didn't meet your expectations. I appreciate all feedback but I don't feel that your review is an actuate representation of the home.

Quiet, relaxing trip!
Thank you Andy for your hospitality. The house was very clean, well stocked with such a quiet, relaxing view. We loved being "unplugged" and having no schedule. There were plenty of games and videos and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. The location is far enough out not to be loud but close enough to get to stores for groceries, etc. The town is charming and we enjoyed the shops there. We were able to get out on boat and find the exciting rope swings and rock jumping. Although the boat broke down on us, I have to commend Andy for being so responsive in helping us and working on getting it fixed. In the meantime, there were opportunities listed in his welcome binder for hikes at state and national forest (found beautiful waterfalls to swim and cool off!) and enjoyed Flat Rock Park for swimming and floating. The house is close enough to canoe to the swing and rocks, and the kids had a great time doing that too. We came home rested and relaxed!

Thank you for choosing to stay at The Bearfoot Lodge for your vacation! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it. I'm also glad you all were able to get out and explore the surrounding areas and experience all the fun activities! Thank you for the review and I hope you'll come back for another visit.
Everything was fine we had a nice stay. I tried to tighten the door handle as it was a little loose and a little hard to open the door but I didn't have a Phillips screw driver.
We enjoyed our stay at the lakehouse! There was plenty of room for 6 people and the kitchen had everything we needed. Picking up the boat was easy and we had a great time on the water! The only downside was having to do laundry before we left, a little tricky when we had to leave to catch a very early morning flight. Overall it was a great stay!
Everything went great, house was awesome, but you need to supply more information about parking spaces. Our trip was for fishing, we had two boats and three trucks, parking was not easy.
We had a great time at this lovely home! Very nice view of the lake from the porches. The screened in porch was one of our favorite spots! Had everything we needed! Wish we could have stayed longer.
We brought 3 adults and 5 teenage boys for a weekend stay. The boys had a blast, very nice property and well maintained.
