Comfortable Home with Breathtaking Views

Kay and Joseph have done a class act job in sharing their beautiful lake-front cabin with weary travelers. The location was peaceful and secluded. We arrived late at night but found the directions and instructions detailed and clear. They responded promptly to my message and kindly offered to leave out certain items they thought we might need because they knew we were traveling with small children. When we arrived, we found a personal note from them welcoming us to their home and a detailed check in guide with a well-written history of their property. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the toys they had left out to play with. The beds were clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped. The bathrooms were immaculate with fresh soap, shampoo, and towels. The architecture and design featured clean lines with beautiful natural wood and big open windows everywhere. We arrived in the darkness so we couldn't fully appreciate the breath-taking views of the surrounding woods and lake until morning. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and this was one of the highlights of our Thanksgiving trip. Thank you, Kay and Joseph, for all the thought and kind intention you put into sharing your beautiful, cozy home with us. You have exceeded our expectations in every way. We hope to return someday for a longer stay. JHT

Great Property!

Beautiful property! We really loved the view here. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The drive to The University of Alabama was not too far and no traffic for game day. The host was very responsive to all questions during our stay and answered right away. I loved that they reached out for feedback and were willing to help when we had questions.
