Athens, Alabama
Peaceful retreat with views of Elk River and plenty of nature and land surrounding the cabin. Relax on the wrap-around porch or watch the sunset on the screened-in porch in one of our rocking chairs. Boat launches nearby for some of the best of Elk River.
AMAZING STAY!!
Hickory nuts on metal roof is loud but it’s fall and we were in the woods.
If you have to work on the go you will not enjoy this location at all. You have to step outside and down the driveway for cell reception and hot spot for a computer is near impossible. HOWEVER, if you like being unplugged and freakishly quiet, this is the spot for you. Winding roads to get there impede road traffic that is not someone intentionally looking for an address on Blue Springs Rd. Half of our group loved it but the near 20 to 25-year-olds who work online on the go, not so much.
Great place to stay for fishermen. We had 2 boats and a 3rd truck as well. Actually would have had space for an additional boat. Will stay there again next year for sure if available.
Loved the cabin! We got to see deer grazing early in the morning and loved the fireplace. The only thing was there are no TVs or Wifi, but you can use your phone as a hotspot.
You sleep better here than in your own house. Super helpful owners, and so peaceful. Wildlife is abundant
The property was just as listed. Very beautiful and peaceful. There were a few amenities that the owner had explained that weren’t yet available but we managed fine. Overall stay was very pleasant. The kids really enjoyed the Corn Hole game and the adults joined in and had just as much fun. Not very good cell service but for the adults that made it more pleasant. Would stay here again no doubt!
Let me preface this by saying that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Just like with everything else, there are pros and cons. Pros are that the cabin is absolutely beautiful, and clean. We spent several hours on the screened in porch just talking. The owner made the check in and out process very easy and even sent us a list of suggested restaurants in the area. The cons are that there is no access to the water. The title lists it as view of the water, but that's from across the street. Your only options are to 1 drive to public access or 2 be bold and ask a neighbor to use their dock. Well, we're extroverts, so it was no problem for us to ask a neighbor, who was extremely friendly and even invited us to happy hour! We spent a very pleasant evening getting to know them. However, this may be an issue if you're not comfortable with that kind of thing. All in all it was a very nice stay, however if direct access to the water is your main concern, this isnt the place for you.
