    About Lake Levels & Seasonal Drawdown (Important to Know)

    Lake Martin is a managed lake, and each year the water level is intentionally lowered during the fall and winter months as part of Alabama Power’s standard lake management process.

    What this means for guests:
    • Late October through early spring, water levels are typically lower and at some points almost completely dry.
    • During drawdown, portions of the shoreline and dock area may be visible or completely dry
    • Boat access may be limited depending on lake levels at that specific time and boat size
    • The dock remains usable for relaxing and enjoying the view

    The good news:
    Many guests love the drawdown season for its peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, fewer boats, crisp air, and perfect hot tub weather. It’s an ideal time for relaxation, reconnecting, and enjoying Lake Martin at a slower pace.

    Water levels usually return to full pool in the spring and summer, bringing excellent boating, swimming, and high-energy lake days.

    We’re always happy to answer questions about current lake conditions before your stay so you can plan accordingly.

    ⸻

    Location Highlights
    • Quiet, private cove with minimal boat traffic
    • Easy access to main lake when water levels are up
    • Short drive to local marinas, dining, and Lake Martin attractions
    • Feels secluded, yet close to everything you need

    ⸻

    What Guests Love Most
    • Exceptionally clean and well-stocked home
    • Outdoor space that feels like a private resort
    • Thoughtful communication and local insight
    • A setting that makes it hard to leave

We had a wonderful stay at Bobby & Rhianna’s lakeside house. You can tell how much thought and effort has been put into this home. The kitchen & toiletries were well stocked and there were more than enough towel available for our whole group. The kitchen layout is perfect, and we were able to cook great meals all weekend.

Wonderful home!

The property was beautiful and decorated perfect! The owners and manager thought of everything when it comes to outfitting the house. Very impressed with the amenities for a vacation rental. One thing I would recommend is a guest book with info for local events/activities/house overview and a signing record of all the previous guests. I would highly recommend the property!

Definitely the most well stocked VRBO I have ever stayed in! The hosts wrote a hand written note, left snacks and drinks, and had every toiletry item and kitchen tool you could think of! There was even a curler, straightener, and hair blow dryer! Very impressed by their thoughtfulness and attention to detail. We really enjoyed hanging out outside and watching the games. Would absolutely recommend this place!

Beautiful, private Lake Martin haven

We spent a week at Bobby & Brianna’s lovely home and loved our visit. The home is well appointed with more amenities and special touches than expected. We had two teenaged girls who enjoyed paddle boarding in the cove and River North Marina made renting a boat super convenient. The guidebook provided was great and although we are repeat Lake Martin guests, we learned a new place in Alex City. Thank you!

We have had the best week here. The house was so well stocked. I was amazed at all the extras the hosts provided for us. From hair dryers, to laundry detergent, to garbage bags, to snacks. The outdoor area was perfect for cooking and relaxing. The boat dock was so easy to use and swim from. They also had a ton of water toys and floats that we were able to use. This place was great and we will be back!

Great Backyard

My family and I had a great time at this house. We spent the majority of our time out back. There was everything you could think of. We couldn’t figure out how to work the gas fire pit on the porch but we were still able to build a real fire with everything provided. They even gave s’mores items. We will definitely visit this house again.

Beautiful Home

Beautiful quiet home on cove! The hospitality was amazing! They had us fire wood, things to make s’mores and the best coffee to ground and make expresso! It was fabulous! We really enjoyed the outdoor space even while it was raining. The owners made sure that the babies had what they needed. The wood burning fireplace was so nice and relaxing. They even brought propane for the outdoor heaters to make sure every thing was perfect. The black stone made the best steaks. I highly recommend.

The house was beautiful inside and out. It was very well stocked and had some nice extra touches (goodies to make S’mores at night). Loved all the water activities readily available at the house-kayaks, paddle board and the kids favorite-paddle boat! We just wish it were on a little larger portion of the lake as the water in the cove wasn’t as nice and clear as other places on the lake! Overall wonderful experience and very responsive hosts!

You can relax in the hot tub as you watch an Eagle soar across the lake or a gaggle of geese swoop down for dinner. A wonderful place to relax and de-stress!
