    This was our second time staying at Fish & Frolic. As before it was super clean, really convenient to the lake for the fishermen in our family, and lots of extra special touches. We appreciated the local recommendations and had an awesome visit to nearby Cathedral Caverns which we'd never heard of before! A fantastic Spring Break for our family!

    This was rented due to a death in the family. I was extremely impressed with how well stopped the kitchen was and loved that there were toys and games available for children. The home was extremely clean and comfortable, and I am sure that if it is available when family comes into town, they will rent it as well.

    We came to Fish and Frolic with our friends for a few nights with our boat and had a great weekend! There were 8 of us total and we had plenty of room to spread out. The house was very clean and was stocked with everything we needed and then some. Our hostess was easy to communicate with and responded quickly about our questions about the lake. It was so nice to be able to put our boat in at the private launch and keep it in their boat house. The kids also liked fishing out of the back of the boat house. We kept saying we wish we have made our stay longer. Can’t wait to come back!

    The house was perfect for our group of adults, young adults and pre-teen. Every person of our varied age group had a great time. The house had very good sleeping accommodations. The boathouse made access to the lake so easy. The kayaks included in the rental were lots of fun. We highly recommend this rental.

    A serene escape! Tucked away by the water, this spacious lakeside retreat was exactly what we needed—quiet mornings, warm sunsets, and total peace. The cozy, well-stocked accommodations had everything we needed to feel right at home. We especially loved the boat dock and pedal boat, which made it easy to fish, snap beautiful photos, or simply float in the middle of the calm lake for some quiet reflection. The perfect place to unplug, recharge, and reconnect!

    I’ve stayed in rentals and Vrbo’s in the USA and Europe with this vacation rental having the best amenities and cleanliness!! The owner was in communication with us and was so very sweet about making sure we had everything we needed. A tornado had gone through less than a week prior to us arriving took down trees, boat house and dock but everything was cleaned up prior to our arrival. The home had more amenities than you could ever request, towels, salt pepper, all kitchen needs, soaps, laundry detergents and even zip lock storage bags!! The home is decorated to perfection! My visit was for a wedding, but whenI go to visit my family who live a mile away, I will definitely stay here again!

    My wife and I, plus my two sisters and their husbands visited the Fish and Frolic Holiday from April 5-8. Our stay was outstanding! All communication with the owners was very easy, prompt and detailed. The lake house was perfect. Very clean, very updated and we had a wonderful time. All rooms large enough to accommodate us. The kitchen was large, the eating area was perfect for 6 adults. We were not able to enjoy the outdoor areas due to the weather, but still were able to have a great time. Drove into Scottsboro one day to visit Unclaimed Baggage which was a lot of fun. I would highly recommend this lake house as a great place to stay.

    We travel to Scottsboro several times a year to visit family. This rental by far exceeded our expectations! The house was super clean, and had all of the amenities we look for when we rent homes. The house is quite larger than what the photos appear to be online. The upstairs gave the kids a place to hang out. My son really loved the twin beds that are located in the hallway.
