The Cabin also has several open decks to enjoy the outdoors. The Cabin can sleep up to 7 people. There's a queen size bed in the master bedroom and four twin beds in the other 2 bedrooms.

Owner is not responsible for personal injury or property damage but you are welcome to utilize the boat house and decks. Swim at your own risk.

Awesome Experience!
The house is absolutely adorable and in a great location. We didn’t have much downtime but when we did we enjoyed the outdoor space and the lake. If we ever find ourselves in that area again we will definitely rent again.

Bachelorette Trip
Five ladies stayed from Friday until Monday for a Bachelorette Trip. I have to say, the website pictures do not do this house justice. It was beautiful! Plus, the owner has added so many details to make your trip enjoyable and relaxing it is amazing! We have rented several different places on the Guntersville Lake. This one was our favorite!

Great House and very clean
A group of 4 fishermen with two boats stayed 4 nights. The only situation was backing our boat trailers off the narrow road into the driveway, but with a little practice it turned out to be okay. The house is great. Very clean and had all of the amenities that you can ask for to have a very enjoyable stay. Would gladly stay again. Highly recommend this cabin.

Great Hosts
We did not get to make our trip due to last minute health issues, but I can't say enough good things about the host and their response to me. They were so polite and accommodating and we were able to receive a refund and will be rescheduling our trip for a later date when all family members are well.
