Over the years children and grandchildren have experienced the joy of having a lakehouse. Swimming, tubing, roasting marshmallows, fishing and much much more. The area seems to have something for everyone - historical sites, rock climbing, waterfalls, crappie capitol of the world, shops to browse, Alabama Band fan club, artisan area, night sky for stargazing and the list goes on. Our three story home has room to spread out, a screened porch that makes you feel like being in a treehouse and a calm peaceful feeling. Whether you like to curl up and read a good book, stay on the go every minute or somewhere in between this place will suit your needs. We love our place but we don't get to use it as often as we did. So we decided to let others enjoy it while we are not there. While there are bears in the area it is unlikely that you will see one outside. Inside on the other hand is a different story. There is a security camera on the corner of the house facing the driveway. The purpose of the camera is strictly for security. Several people have asked if we have our own dock. Yes we do. It is the cover photo. If you rent from us, there are three docks and ours is the one in the middle. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 23 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Area rugs in public areas - Handrails in stairways - Hardwood flooring in public areas - Tile flooring in public areas - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Billiards/pool table - Kayak - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![House (3 Bedrooms) | Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100860000/100850300/100850219/1834a564.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stylish Fort Payne Retreat: Hike & Rock Climb Fort Payne - Kitchen - Washing machine - Free Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-13&endDate=2026-03-14&selected=100850219&PinnedHotelID=100850219&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/112000000/111550000/111544300/111544225/88c32821.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Family A-Frame: Fully-Fenced, Hot Tub, Fire Pit Gaylesville - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 9.6 Exceptional 4 reviews £324 includes taxes & fees 4 Mar - 5 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-04&endDate=2026-03-05&selected=111544225&PinnedHotelID=111544225&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115820000/115810400/115810345/0e453dca.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lakefront Getaway | Sleeps 8+ | Private Pier & Hot Tub Centre - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 9.6 Exceptional 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-13&endDate=2026-03-14&selected=115810345&PinnedHotelID=115810345&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) [Compare similar properties](/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-13&endDate=2026-03-14&selected=77052561&PinnedHotelID=77052561&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2&comparePropertyIds=77052561,100850219,111544225,115810345) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Contactless check-in and check-out are available Minimum check-in age - 28 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM Contactless check-out ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming dogs only 2 total (up to 23 kg per pet) ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a private host (a party not acting within their trade, business or profession).
