About this property
The Guesthouse at The Waters, Walk to Chapel, Pool & Town Square
The Guesthouse at The Waters sits right on the town square — surrounded by live oaks, lake views, and the kind of quiet that makes you take a deep breath the second you arrive. Walk to the Chapel, the pool, the playground, coffe and cafe, and fitness center without ever getting in your car.
This 1,800 sq ft cottage sleeps 6 comfortably across three bedrooms — king bed in the master, queens in bedrooms two and three — with 3 full baths and 1 half bath. The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a Keurig. The living space has a large sectional, flat screen TV, and room to gather.
Largest floor plan on the row.
We recently completed a top-to-bottom refresh of the entire home — deep cleaning, updated touches, and renewed attention to every detail. We take pride in this space and want it to feel as good as The Waters looks.
Most of our guests are here for weddings at the Chapel at The Waters, and for good reason — it's a short walk from the front porch. Bridal parties love having a home base with enough space to get ready, spread out, and celebrate without worrying about hotel room walls. But we also host families, girls' weekends, business teams, RTJ golfers (Capitol Hill and Opelika courses are close by), and folks just looking for a few quiet days in a beautiful setting.
The Waters is a one-of-a-kind community — front porches, walking trails, fishing, biking, and community events throughout the year. EastChase shopping is 13 minutes away, downtown Montgomery and Maxwell AFB are 20 minutes, and Auburn University is a short drive.

We have stayed at this property twice now for a business trip and would love to stay again. The location is great and the house is just like the pictures. Communication is quick!
Great location in the heart of the Waters on Pike Road. Right off the square with a beautiful view of town square, Very short walk to restaurant and beautiful, relaxing pool. Our favorite thing to do was sit on the front patio with our wine enjoying the view and meeting all the friendly neighbors and their pets. Comfortable home with plenty of room.
We rented this home for our youngest daughter’s wedding weekend. It was perfect! Great size for the flowers to sit (mother of groom did floral arrangements for wedding ) and still have room to walk. Spacious bedrooms with a bathroom for each ! We loved our stay.
The beauty of The Waters has to be experienced. It can’t be described. The lake , the scenery, the variety of birds to watch. It’s so peaceful and beautiful everywhere.
The cottage was beautiful , comfortable and perfectly located near the town center which has restaurants , morning coffee, essentials to buy at the small store , And a new Spa!
The wedding at the Chapel nearby made it the perfect place to stay and enjoy not having to drive. You can check in, park and never leave!! Everything is right there!
visiting family in The Waters and staying here was perfect! walking distance or a short golf cart ride to everything! plenty of space, great beds, nice bathrooms, and most importantly in July- cool a/c!
Great location and space for a mini family reunion. Owner was easy and pleasant to deal with. We expect to do this again at this location.

Very nice property
We had a wonderful stay in this nice neighborhood. Good to come home to after a day in the city. Kim was very helpful when we accidentally left something behind. A beautiful restful home.

Perfect Getaway Home!
This house is right in the middle of everything in the Waters. So convenient to the market stores and right across from the green/lawn area, pool, docks, and playground. Beautifully decorated, and beds were so comfortable. So many thoughtful touches- like high quality towels, little soaps and shampoos, even a Keurig with pods available. And the owner is delightful!! We absolutely loved our stay!!
Relaxing and enjoyable for everyone. Great space for gathering and playing games and beds were super comfortable. Loved the pools! We brought our golf cart and thoroughly enjoyed riding around the BEAUTIFUL neighborhood! Loved the amenities and shops nearby!
Everything was fabulous!
Our family enjoyed a long weekend stay as our son was getting married at a local East Montgomery church. Kim was timely in her responses when we had questions. Highly recommend this spacious and comfortable accommodation in a beautiful community. We enjoyed the pool, walking the grounds, Hole in the Wall coffee shop and NYC Gyro. Would definitely rent again!

Wonderful and spacious house for groups!
I was so happy to get to stay at Kim's property. I rented the house for my work team to have a home base during a long work weekend. It couldn't have been better for us. It was so nice for us to have our own group space and not have to deal with hotel rooms. There was nothing better than coming back from a long day of managing a large event to the most comfortable and well appointed beds ever. And the large bathrooms were a treat on their own. Thank you Kim for your hospitality and graciousness!

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
We were disappointed with this property and feel it needs significant updates before it can justify its current ratings. The couch is worn out and really needs to be replaced, the carpet is old and stained, and the walls are in serious need of fresh paint. There were visible cobwebs on the walls, which made the home feel unclean.We also had trouble operating the TV because there were three different remotes and no instructions anywhere—very frustrating after a long day of travel.I’m not sure how this place has received such high reviews, but it requires major work and better upkeep. With some attention and improvements, it could be a much more enjoyable stay.

Beautiful neighborhood
Absolutely loved The Waters, The Chapel and the local coffee shop. The home is located on a lovely square and very convenient for wedding guests of The Chapel. However, it is in dire need of a deep cleaning and overall “sprucing up”. A few special amenities would have been nice (wash cloths, soaps, coffee pot, comfortable balcony/porch chairs). I would definitely recommend this rental - but not until it has been thoroughly cleaned from top to bottom and restocked with a few essentials.

Home away from Home! 💙
We stayed at this house for a week while my daughter was in a softball tournament in Montgomery. We absolutely loved this house. We would come back to the house after a long day at the ballpark and it was like going home. Beds are comfortable, showers are amazing and the tv in the living room was perfect for relaxing and watching tv. The pool is perfect! Kids had a blast in the large, infinity edge pool while the parents relaxed poolside gazing over the lake. The Cafe has amazing smoothies and the customer service was the best service we received (from any restaurant, even restaurants in Montgomery) throughout our stay. All of the neighbors and other members of the community, The Waters, were friendly and helpful. The owner responded quickly to any questions and even checked on us midstay. I would highly recommend this house. You will not be disappointed.

Stylish and Thoughtfully Appointed. Generous Host. Can't ask for more!
Stylishly and thoughtfully appointed rental. Kim has thought of everything and she has impeccable taste. The layout creates privacy for all parties. At the same time the living/dining room made for the perfect area to socialize. The beds were comfortable and the towels were soft. My best friend has tasked me with finding out the brand of the bath mat as she liked it so much. There is a pool and a sandy beach area that would be great for relaxing with kids or without. We didn't have a chance to take advantage of them but they a block away. Also, on property was a lunch counter that sells provisions too. We came from the West Coast for the opening of the EJI museums (must sees for every American) but if we lived closer, we'd come back. I've stayed in at least 20 VRBO's and this rental is one of the best.
The house was the perfect place for the bridesmaids to stay the weekend of my daughter’s wedding. It was spacious, beautifully decorated, and the bridesmaids enjoyed walking over to the quaint coffee shop located nearby. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
The location was perfect, close to everything and easy to navigate the property. The online description matches the property perfectly. We were visiting family that lives at The Waters, which is a great little community with tons of outdoor options. I highly recommend this property.
We really enjoyed our stay. It was close enough to Auburn, but a very peaceful little getaway spot. I enjoyed a morning around the lake. We had almost everything we needed for a nice weekend stay.
Some suggestions for improvement:
1. Provide a kitchen garbage can.
2. Provide wash cloths.
3. Make sure all beds had at least 4 pillows. The downstairs bedroom has only 1 and a throw pillow.
