A short drive from Birmingham, you will feel like you’re a world away as you meander along a quiet road with picturesque views of the countryside. You’ll be welcomed inside this beautiful rustic Adirondack style log cabin by the aroma of knotty pine into a huge kitchen and dining room where you can enjoy a family breakfast next to a real wood fireplace with wide views of the lake.

Take a moment to catch your breath before stepping into the Great Room. Here you can read a book while watching the boats go by on the comfortable leather sofa, enjoy a glass of wine by the floor to ceiling rock fireplace, watch TV with the whole family, or just sit and enjoy the details of this exquisitely decorated room with pine wood beams stretched across the soaring ceilings.

You’ll be drawn up to the loft where you will find an open area with bonus twin beds with views of the Great Room and Smith Lake. Just off the Great Room, a hand-crafted King Bed with a mural of the Lake and beautiful armoire make up the master suite. The master bath features a claw foot tub and an incredible custom stone and slate shower large enough for two.

Wake up to awesome views of the lake from the second King suite with adjoining bathroom. The 3rd ground floor bedroom features a King bed and 3rd bath. The 2nd floor offers a bedroom with a full size bed and sleeping loft with twin beds. With all the beauty inside, you tend to forget the main reason you came here but eventually you will find yourself on the back covered porch looking out over a large deck with table for outdoor dinning and outdoor wood burning fireplace. The amazingly clear and deep waters of the main body of Rock Creek.

A large fenced in yard allows Mom and Dad the opportunity relax on the porch swing and watch the kids and puppies play. When you’re ready to go down to the lake, a gentle walk leads you to the boat dock with swim pier and double jet-ski lifts. You’ll definitely want to take advantage of the large stainless gas grill enjoy your meal in the lakeside gazebo with picnic table and double glider. The house also has a state or the art security system with external cameras. With all these extraordinary amenities and accommodations for up to 10 people, you’ll want to come every season to Cody’s Cabin.

    Cozy cabin with great living and dining areas, clean and updated kitchen and baths and comfortable beds. We had small dogs with us and being able to bring them was great! We were just there for 3 nights for a family event in the area so we did not take much more than coffee. If you are planning on cooking I would suggest getting groceries before heading to the cabin. Not much available nearby although there was the usual Dollar General. We did call in and pick up food from Kat Daddy’s BBQ and it was great, especially the ribs! Great stay all around.

    We brought our fur baby and parents to help us find our forever home on the lake and we did! Larry was so sweet and accommodating to us as we had to extend our stay for inspections. One of the best host we’ve dealt with! Thank you so much.

    Cabin was as described. Two couples with 6 kids (ages 3-11) cabin easily accommodated. Loved the fenced yard which worked great for the little kids and the two dogs.We also really enjoyed the dock for swimming and playing in the water. The ice machine was great to have!We would definitely book again.

    This place is not perfect. But is is close - for us. There is a little dust. It is very pet friendly, with a super convenient fenced back yard that corrals both a small dog and a young child. There is not a speck of paint inside - the interior is natural wood finish top bottom and sides. The decor is “lodge” — charming, warm, and relaxing. We enjoy the waterside covered table and glider swing, as well as the wooden geck just out the back door - snores in its brick fireplace. Three spacious bedrooms downstairs with three bathrooms — two dedicated and one shared with the main living area. The kitchen was well stocked with appliances, kitchenware and spices — we used a bit and left some new. The water is deep one step off shore. But the ground slopes gently to the water - No Cliffs! Many properties have high cliff faces on this lake. The house and proper facilitated a Great week with family, and we would look forward to staying here again!

    The property was perfect for bringing our dogs! Great outdoor space, fenced yard and dock. We were able to go for walks around the surrounding farmland which the dogs loved. When you think of a cabin, this is the picture in the dictionary - everything is wood and dark. It was rather chilly while we were there so we played lots of games and watched movies. The television was not the most updated but we really only used it at night. The owner was very responsive and helpful.

    Our family of seven gathers once or twice a year to celebrate our grandson and oldest son's lives. The outside area was so pleasant. We enjoyed the rockers and swings very much. Having two coffee pots for this coffee-drinking family was a big plus. This is a time of remembrance and reflection for all of us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cody's Cabin. Our host was so kind and accommodating. He allowed us to bring our dogs, which we greatly appreciated. The cabin is beautiful. We loved that the king bedrooms are on the same floor. We wished we could use the hot tub, but in all fairness, it was not listed in the accommodations. The bedroom and bathroom doors need some work, as they are hard to open and close/lock, but we made it work.

    My Family and 2 dogs had a wonderful stay in October. The weather was perfect and the cabin was very nice. We spent most of our time out on the porch sitting on the swing or by the fire. The kitchen was great for meals and had all we needed. We hope to return soon.

    My family and I had a wonderful time at this beautifully decorated cabin. There are a lot of great features to this property. The antiques and photos were very cool and sparked several conversations. We loved that it had 3 king size beds on the main floor, each with their own full bath. The fenced yard was great for our dog when he wanted to take a break from the dock and lake. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and serving the catering we brought with us. It is close to Triple Creek Marina and we had a lot of fun on our rented Sea-Doo. The guys all enjoyed fishing, even though they didn't catch anything. The rock shore line made for some fun cliff jumping. We did have a couple of minor, but important, repair requests upon arrival. Larry was very responsive and sent the handyman the next morning. The property is in need of a floor-to-ceiling deep cleaning and some maintenance and pressure washing on the porch, deck, and dock...but we didn't let that spoil our fun and enjoyment of this beautiful, crystal clear lake.

    Nice location on a beautiful lake, but the house is in great need of upkeep and maintenance. The decor is very outdated and the house is very dark. The ice machine was broken, and the kitchen was very dirty. The outside fence was broken and the “gazebo” by the lake is basically condemned and unusable. The dock is old and scary. The deck needs to be completely rebuilt, as there are pieces of broken wood which is dangerous and the outdoor “ fireplace” is disgusting. Overall, the yard and outdoor areas need attention. I’ve rented numerous houses on the lake for years, and this was a disappointment.

    Great place for the family. Swimming and fishing right in the backyard. Short walk to the dock. Bedrooms were arranged perfectly for our family. 3 bathrooms a definite plus. Cell service a little spotty but that just forces families to spend time enjoying each other instead of being on their phones.
