    The cabin on the lake is rustic, with older furnishings, but warm and inviting which is exactly what we were looking for. Loved our visit with friends. I hope to go back one day.

    Cabin in rural Alabama was perfect for our trip. The scenery leading up to the cabin and the property was beautiful. Reminded me of my grandpas hunting cabin growing up. It was everything we needed for our trip and would love to visit again. Love the uniqueness of the cabin and how peaceful the area was. The river and shoreline was picturesque.

    It's a beautiful, secluded place that has everything we were looking for in a vacation spot. Even though it rained most of the weekend, it didn't dampen our stay. The privacy and ease of access to the fishing and swimming area gave us peace of mind and we were able to relax and have a good time. As an added bonus, we went looking around and found some amazing historical sites that we had no idea was there. Everyone had a wonderful weekend and we all want to come back to this cabin again!

    House was not clean - spider webs and wasps throughout. Kitchen cabinets were dirty. Door knobs didn’t work. Boards on deck need replacing.

    So I am currently staying here for a work trip for three weeks and this place is outdated!! The owners of the house DO NOT ANSWER their phones it’s flea invested and roaches and it’s not worth the price! They need to clean it immediately!
