Named for our beloved pup Barney, who loved watching boats drift by from the bluff, this warm and comfortable retreat combines panoramic water views with practical, family focused amenities. The single level layout makes living easy for all ages. The primary suite features a comfortable king bed, Roku TV, walk in closet, and a private bath with jetted tub and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms accommodate kids and adults alike, one with a queen bed and one with two bunk beds. A hall bath with double vanities and a tub and shower combination supports busy mornings after long lake days. The fully equipped kitchen offers generous counter space, a center island with prep sink, full appliances, and a dedicated coffee station. An adjacent dining area and flexible living space allow you to spread out or gather together comfortably. Reclining seating, a large desk and workspace, books, and family games provide comfort beyond the water. A standout feature is the sunroom overlooking the lake, complete with a 60 inch Roku TV, bar area, game table for eight, and comfortable lounge seating, ideal for movie nights, poker games, or relaxed evenings indoors. Step outside to the composite deck with multiple seating areas, an eight seat fire table, gazebo, propane grill, and a lakeside firepit. The fully gated deck with access to the back yard grass offers added peace of mind for children and pets. Follow the 44 step stairway with resting landings to the private covered boat dock and swim deck. Guests enjoy access to a tandem fishing kayak and paddleboard. For families wanting a full lake experience, an optional 24 foot Sun Tracker pontoon with 150 horsepower (and 3-person tow tube) is available as a separate rental. Outfitted with swivel fishing chairs, loungers, a live well, electronic bimini and tow bar, it is ideal for fishing, cruising, or towing. Life jackets for guests and dogs are provided. Pet friendly amenities include a full fenced yard, clean up station, and dog bed. There is additional parking space in back of the home. All TVs include Roku with high speed 1 GB internet and access to more than 75 live channels, with the ability to log into your personal streaming accounts, making entertainment seamless after a day on the water. Barney’s Bluff is built for memory making, from morning coffee with lake views to afternoons fishing or tubing and evenings around the fire watching the sunset over Smith Lake. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Jetted bathtub - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Gas grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - 3 pets total ### 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 - Front entrance ramp - Gravel flooring in public areas - In-room accessibility - Single level property - Smooth flooring in public areas - Tile flooring in public areas - Well-lit path to entrance - Designated smoking areas ### Services and conveniences - Change of bedsheets (on request) - Change of towels on request - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - On a lake - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Boat - Kayak - Water sports equipment - Fishing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bed sheets changed on request - Double-glazed windows - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Energy-saving switches in guestrooms - Garden - Towels (changed on request) - Unit size: 2,650 square feet ## Similar properties ![Lobby lounge](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/62000000/61500000/61491700/61491614/cd840971.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### SpringHill Suites by Marriott Birmingham Gardendale Gardendale - Pool - Breakfast included - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 9.4 Exceptional 713 reviews £117 includes taxes & fees 30 Mar - 31 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=61491614&PinnedHotelID=61491614&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/46000000/45940000/45935100/45935027/ae904860.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lay Lake House, life is better on the lake Columbiana - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.4 Exceptional 53 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-12&endDate=2026-04-13&selected=45935027&PinnedHotelID=45935027&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99740000/99736300/99736249/41581a2c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### LAKEFRONT-YEAR ROUND WATER- FEW STAIRS TO WATER!

This property was even more beautiful than advertised!! Immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. The kitchen had everything you could imagine needing including a cute coffee bar and a sweet surprise gift! The bedrooms were spacious, with comfortable beds and plenty of blankets and pillows. There is no shortage of entertainment for any age- television, games, books, and so much to do outdoors!! The views were amazing with plenty of outdoor areas for eating and playing! Corn hole boards, kayaks, a paddle board and more are provided for your enjoyment as well. This could not have been a better weekend for my family.

Very quiet and peaceful. Barney’s Bluff is everything and more than advertised. We also decided to rent the pontoon for a couple days to check some land for sale on the water. It was great to do this from the water versus the street. The convienence of just being able to walk on down and go was great! Having an home where we were able to bring our fur babies and have a safe fenced in area and deck was a huge bonus! We even caught a small mouth bass fishing from the dock and casting towards the horse line.we highly recommend this place! ##### Martha M.

Fabulous views, perfect location that’s easily accessible and has deep water in a wide cove, comfortable sunroom and massive deck with many seating options for relaxation and spending time with family. These owners thought of everything you might want or need, from the kitchen to the bathrooms to the outdoor areas, and lots supplied for both indoor and outdoor recreation. I almost hate to write this review because it’s a new listing that I know will get many great reviews and will have a full calendar of bookings going forward, which means less opportunity for us to return! ##### Robin B.

Loved the details, like the comfy bedding, coffee bar, bright and colorful decor and furnishings, robes, games, and the snacks with welcome note. That 4 seasons room! Didn’t want to leave it. Just wish the screens on the sliding doors were repaired so we could enjoy the fresh air while sitting there. And the fire pit wood was too wet to attempt a fire. Was there kindling because we couldn’t find it. But those still didn’t take away from our pure enjoyment of this place. Thank u for allowing a teacher and her husband a relaxing Spring Break! ##### Ronald S.

You really can’t ask for more than what Barney’s Bluff has to offer. While we always come prepared with everything we need to enjoy the lake, at Barney’s you can almost leave everything at home except your wallet, tooth brush, food, swimsuit and a change of clothes and Barney’s provides everything else you need to have a great time on Smith Lake. Floats, life jackets, dog life vests, kayak, paddle board, pontoon available for rent, fully equipped kitchen, extra swim towels, lounge chairs, rocking chairs, gas grill, fire pit, board games, books, internet, smart tvs, washer & dryer, fenced area for pets, etc. The home and all amenities were well taken care of as well. One word of caution: if you trailer your boat, once you get to the last turn (right before you turn onto CR 187) pull over and walk the short distance down the gravel road to make sure your trailer backing skills are sufficient to get turned around. We loved our stay! ##### Matthew B.

We enjoyed a long weekend with our dogs at Barney's bluff. Great location for sitting on the dock, swimming in the lake, paddle boarding and boating! House was great - very well stocked with everything you might need. Owners were very responsive and engaged. Highly recommended for those looking for a relaxing time away from home. ##### Frances L.

Everything anyone could need was there, even a coffee bar for the girls and a fenced yard for the dogs. The dock with paddle board, a first for our girls, was fun and the water was great. We all loved it!!! ##### Jackie M.

The house is just as you see in the pictures. It’s so nice and clean! On the lake with a boat slip and lift! Super pet friendly! The gates to keep the dogs on the porch while giving them access to the side yard (grass) and not having to worry about them running off was great! Also, the toys at the lake included everything to keep our 13, 17, and 19 year old busy while not on the boat! They swam, kayaked, paddle boarded, and used the water saddles! 100% recommend Barney’s Bluff! ##### Amanda S.

The owners have everything you need upon arrival. We ran to the Country Mall and grabbed some hot dogs to grill the first night and picked up groceries in Cullman the next day via Walmart pick up order. The owners have thought out of everything from lots of games to play inside to water saddles to enjoy in the water. The kids loved the kayak and paddleboard. We enjoyed sitting on the dock in the comfy adorandack chairs down on the dock. The view of the lake doesn’t get any better. It’s beautiful! I did not want to leave but we definitely hope to return soon! ##### Kelli W. Stayed 4 nights in May 2022 ---
