It’s a strain to use lake view as a selling point. It is on the opposite side of a busy 4 lane highway and you have to stand in the driveway to see the lake which is probably more than 1/4 mile away. Other that that the property was very clean and accommodating.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Brewer

Host profile image
I'm living my dream of the past 20 years. I moved to Alabama and designed and built my Adirondack home with a view of beautiful Guntersville Lake. I completed the house in the winter of 2013.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in Guntersville but moved away. Coming back every year and enjoying the lake by fishing, skiing and boating just made me realize this is were I wanted to live.

What makes this property unique

The house was designed to have guests stay in it. You'll have your own private entrance and lots of areas to relax. You can hike on the island and will probably see deer, or even a bald eagle that has a nest here. I will do my best to make your stay fun and relaxing.
