Pier Haven at Bay Pine is a welcoming lakefront retreat made for slowing down and settling in. Soak in the hot tub, gather around the fire pit, curl up for a movie or catch the game on the 75” smart TV, explore the lake by kayak, or enjoy a quiet morning on the porch.
With room for up to 8 guests, Pier Haven is an inviting escape for couples, families, and friends—whether you’re getting away for a few days or staying awhile.

SEASONAL LAKE LEVELS
Lake Martin is lowered each fall and winter, and water typically recedes beyond Pier Haven’s dock during this time. Swimming, fishing from the dock, and motorized watercraft access at the home are generally unavailable during lower-water months.
The shoreline remains walkable to the water, allowing guests to carry the kayaks or paddle boat down to the lake when conditions permit. A nearby boat launch at Boondocks at Bay Pine Marina is approximately ⅓ mile from the home.
LOCATION
Tucked away in a peaceful Lake Martin setting off Hwy 280 between Alexander City and Dadeville, Pier Haven feels removed from the rush while keeping dining, golf, shopping, and local attractions within easy reach.
SETTLE IN & STAY AWHILE
Come for a quiet escape, time with family and friends, a game-day getaway, or simply a change of scenery. Explore Lake Martin and the surrounding area, work remotely when you need to, cook dinner together, soak in the hot tub, and end the evening around the fire.
Whether it’s a few nights or a longer stay, Pier Haven is a place to slow down, settle in, and enjoy more time together.

Great space for 3 golfers playing Grand National over a few days. Comfortable beds, relaxing hot tub, great dock to hang out on and everything we needed. Showers have excellent water pressure. We cooked steaks on the grill, watched baseball, football and hockey on the big TV while kicking back on the recliners. Not a single negative thing to say about our stay. Loved it and hope to return.

Beautiful property. Very comfortable and clean. Problem with hot tub. They worked with us and kept in contact diligently to make sure we were happy. Townhouses on the side were busy and noisey but we expected that. Would stay again!

I have been visiting lake Martin my entire life and this was our first rental. The home was beautiful with tons of amenities, clean, and excellent location. The kayaks were great, as well as the hot tub. The hosts were incredibly gracious, kind, and communicative throughout our stay.

We had a great time, property was just what we wanted. We had 7 people and everyone had space and a bed. The beds were VERY comfortable! The house was well appointed and everything we needed was there. The water was quiet and no traffic, so the kids could swim all day without worry. Relaxing is the best way I could describe the property. This is the first vacation we have had where we didn’t need to rest when we got home. Everything really was as advertised, and the owners communicated promptly. I do have a few suggestions, though. The “sugar ants” are pretty bad on the back porch, the driveway and the dock. They aren’t fire ants, so no bites, but anything you set outside will get ants. My boat got a lot on it from the dock lines, and even my truck has ants in it. The only other complaint I have is the cameras. I understand the ones on the driveway and front door, and maybe even the one facing the dock, but the camera looking at the porch/grill area is unnerving. Sitting at the table drinking coffee in the morning or hanging out any time, it just feels like someone is watching you. The camera lights are even on all night. We still used the porch but it would be nicer without “big brother” watching. I really do not want to seem like the place isn’t great, because IT IS!! We will definitely stay here again. The house is the most true to advertisement of any house we have rented.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review. We're truly delighted to hear your family had such a relaxing stay and that the home was exactly what you were looking for. Knowing everyone had plenty of space, enjoyed the quiet water, and found the home comfortable and well-equipped means so much to us. We also appreciate your thoughtful suggestions. We'll have our pest control company give the dock, driveway, and porch areas some extra attention. We also appreciate your comments regarding the exterior security cameras. They are there to help provide an added layer of safety and security for our guests and the property, and we appreciate you sharing your perspective. Thank you again for choosing Pier Haven at Bay Pine. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we'd be honored to welcome you back for another relaxing stay at Lake Martin in the future!

Phenomenal spot on Lake Martin. Very well equipped for the stay. Easy to get to by boat, we moored the boat to the dock for the entire stay, about 3.5-4ft of water under the boat at the dock. We were able to plug the battery tender in as well. Side porch was a great spot to sit and enjoy coffee and meals. Beds were very comfy, Shower water pressure was good. Living room was cozy for the after boat day relaxing. Kitchen is the most equipped one we have stayed at. Laundry pods, dishwasher pods all included. Driveway was big with plenty of space, center tree island did make it slightly difficult to turn our 19ft boat around. Very nice place to stay!!

About the host

Hosted by John or Lara

Host profile image
Hosting gives us the opportunity to share a place we truly love. We want every guest to feel welcomed, cared for, and able to create wonderful lasting memories during their stay.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it offers the best of both worlds—a quiet, peaceful lake community with a relaxed pace, while still being conveniently located just off Highway 280. It’s easy to get to, yet feels tucked away from the crowds. Guests enjoy the short drive to both Alexander City and Dadeville for dining, shopping, and entertainment, then returning to a calm, private lakeside setting to truly unwind.

What makes this property unique

Guests love the perfect blend of peaceful lakefront privacy and unbeatable convenience. Tucked away at the end of a quiet slough, the home offers calm water, a private dock, and easy, step-free access to the lake—ideal for all ages. The nearly one-acre, tree-lined lot feels secluded, yet you’re just a short walk to Boondocks Marina and minutes from Alexander City and Dadeville.
Evenings are made for gathering around the fire pit or unwinding in the hot tub, while the home’s thoughtful layout comfortably accommodates up to eight guests without feeling crowded. Whether guests are boating, swimming, or simply relaxing with nature, this home delivers a true Lake Martin experience that keeps people coming back.
