The space
Looking forward to relaxing with a view? Or do you prefer outdoor activities? Good news! This space offers guests the best of both worlds! The Maritime Retreat is the perfect space to escape the everyday grind and enjoy life on the water! Even better, despite the remote feel, you're only 20 minutes from downtown Tuscaloosa and the University of Alabama!
With 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, there's ample space for large families or groups. In total, the house can comfortable sleep 9 guests, but there are also 2 couches that could serve as additional sleeping arrangements. It's been remodeled and outfitted with modern and cozy furnishings. Enjoy the comforts of home with a stocked kitchen, smart TVs, washer and dryer, 6-seat dining table, 4 seat kitchen bar, patio, fire pit terrace, dock with boat slip, and a large wooded lot.
Bedrooms:
Bedroom 1: King bed and an en-suite bathroom.
Bedroom 2: Queen bed
Bedroom 3: Twin over Full bunk beds, plus a futon.
The primary bedroom connects to an updated en-suite bathroom with a stand-up shower. The guest bathroom upstairs features a tub/shower combo. The basement bathroom also has a stand-up shower.
Craving something local? Tuscaloosa has an excellent food scene with ethnic, soul, southern, and international flavors. You're merely a 20-minute drive to downtown, where you can find a great variety of restaurants waiting to satisfy any craving, including:
• Mexican (Central Mesa, Jalapeños Mexican Grill)
• Barbecue (Dreamland Barbeque, Moe's Barbeque, Jim N' Nick's)
• Southern (Urban Bar & Kitchen, Avenue Pub)
• Burgers (Jack Brown's, Mugshots)
• Pizza (Heat Pizza, Mellow Mushroom)

• Steakhouse (Dillard's Chophouse)
• Breakfast (City Café, Heritage House, T-Town Café, Big Bad Breakfast)
**Please read before booking**
-Please be aware, like most properties on Lake Tuscaloosa, this home sits on a steep hill. There is a detached two-car carport. I have found it is easiest to pull into the carport, and then back down the hill to the flat parking area.
-There are exterior security cameras at the property's front and back. Guests may not tamper with, cover, or unplug these devices.
-A maximum of two pets are allowed with a fee of $175 per stay. If you have additional pets, you must receive written permission from management and pay additional pet fees.
-For stays longer than 2 weeks, please be aware that you will be charged an additional cleaning fee. All properties are required to be cleaned and inspected every other week.
