Relax with the whole family at our spectacular lake retreat! Plenty to occupy all ages and hobbies. Fish from multi-level dock, launch your boat or jet ski from private launch, swim in the year-round deep water, swing over the water or kayak to the sand bar to hang out! You can also relax on the top deck in our lounge chairs, stay cool under the pergola w/fans or take a break in the hammock or double swing. Play pool, shuffleboard or lawn games. Wind down around the fire pit or in the hot tub!
Four bedroom/Four Bath house on Shoals Creek (an off shoot of Wilson Lake) with amazing outdoor activities. The home has a two level boat house/dock with 2 boat slips, a boat lift, 2 jet ski lifts, and water swing on the bottom level. There is a private boat launch that is only shared with the next door neighbor. The top of the boat house is an incredible relaxation space. Multiple lounge chairs sit under a pergola complete with privacy curtains and fans, beverage cooler and table with chairs. We have 3 kayaks for guest use as well as some fishing poles and gear.
Enjoy the front yard that looks out over the dock and water from the covered front porch, the hammock or 2 person wooden swing.
Gather around the built in firepit and tell family stories as you roast marshmallows or hot dogs. We have multiple roasting sticks for guest use.
Feed the whole family using the Blackstone griddle or gas grill! There are plenty of tables and chairs outside for an amazing picnic. We even have lawn games for all our guests to enjoy.
If the weather isn't cooperating or if you want something to do off the water hang out in the large garage that is air conditioned while watching TV and playing pool or shuffleboard. There is also a full bath in the garage so you can rinse off after you've been in the lake without having to come in the house to do so.
The hot tub is wonderful for soaking your cares away and relaxing those sore muscles after being on the lake. ***Hot tub is currently broken (4/29/24 but hoping to be replaced soon). Please check with owner on status if that is a deal breaker!***
The screened in back porch is a comfortable place to hang out with rocking chairs, a porch bed swing and dining table. It also has an air conditioner to help with the temps during those hot summer afternoons.
The house itself is comfortable, spacious and has wonderful views of the water.
Gather the whole family in the open living room/kitchen/dining room for a movie night on the big screen TV and snuggle in on the comfy sectional sofa.
Play games around the built in window seat dining table or just hang out together while preparing meals or snacks. Between the large kitchen island and window seat dining table there is seating for 14 people.
The master bedroom is on the main floor and looks out over the lake. It has a queen sized bed. The master bath has a walk in shower. (Sleeps 2)
There is a second full bath on the main floor which has a tub/shower combo.
Also on the main floor is the laundry room with washer/dryer.
Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms and a full bath with a shower/tub.
Bedroom 2 has a queen bed and a twin over twin bunkbed. (Sleeps 4)
Bedroom 3 has a queen bed. (Sleeps 2)
Bedroom 4 has two twin over double bunk beds and a twin over twin bunk bed. (Sleeps 8)
For families travelling with small children we do provide a changing table, high chair, booster seat, pack n play and some outlet covers. We also have an assortment of baby/toddler toys. Please see our house manual for the location of these items.
Well behaved, housebroken pets allowed with prior approval and pet rent of $25/day/per pet.  Bringing pets without approval or payment of pet rent is grounds for reservation cancellation without refund.  We do have a large gate that blocks our front porch and pets can be kept on the porch.  We are in a somewhat rural area and there are dogs that occasionally run loose, please watch your pets, we are not responsible for pet safety.  We do have a small dog lifevest and medium dog lifevest for use if needed.
Guests will have access to the entire property. There are a couple owners closets that are locked as well as the garage fridge. Please stay out of those areas.
You are welcome to use the garage but refrain from going into our garage storage loft or using materials there.
Our home is on Shoals Creek, a year-round deep water channel of Wilson Lake. You are about a 20 min. boat ride to the main part of Wilson Lake. We are very close to Blue Hole (you can see it from our dock) which is a sandbar hang out spot for summer fun.
The driveway and private boat launch are shared with our neighbor (the homes used to be owned by the same family). Please do not block access to either and be respectful to our neighbors.
The last .8 of a mile to our house is a dirt road. It is well maintained but in times of lots of rain or bad weather it can have pot holes. We are not responsible or liable for road conditions.
Our home is about a 20 min. drive to the city of Florence where you will find all your major stores and restaurant and fast food establishments.
We are close to Muscle Shoals, Helen Keller birthplace, W.C. Handy Music Festival, Frank Lloyd Wright Rosenbaum House, Wilson Lake Dam (home of incredible bass and catfish fishing), and world class golfing with 2 championship courses as well as other courses nearby.
Please note that our home's centerpiece is its access to nature. Along with the joys of the outdoors comes some downsides and one of those are outdoor bugs. You may see evidence of these creatures around the house. We do have regular pest control as well as mosquito spraying but it cannot take care of everything. Please try to keep the doors to the house shut if you have porch lights on as the bugs will come inside as they are attracted to the light.

Owners have a cat and dogs that will not be here during your listing but they do occasionally come inside, please be aware if you have allergies.

    Very nice property! Everything was easily accessible. We really liked the layout of the kitchen/dining area because it was perfect for a larger group. Loved the back porch swing! The dock was just perfect for fishing and swimming. It was nice to have the fire pit as well. One great thing was having such nice bathrooms and spacious showers, especially when you have a larger group of people. We would love to stay here every year, and would highly recommend to others.

    We were impressed as soon as we opened the front door. The house was beautifully decorated, and soft music was playing from both tvs upon our entry. This house is super clean, and updated throughout. It has eveything you could need, including shampoo, spices, coffee, creamer, dishes and cooking supplies. This house was very comfortable for our group of 8 adults The front room is very spacious and provided a great space to watch tv and play board games. And, with 3 full bathrooms, that space was always available when needed. The house is located on Shoals Creek and its a beautiful view and great fishing off the docks! .All communication with the property, Mrs.Denise was excellent. I received prompt replies, and they were always very courteous.We plan to always stay at this house, whenever possible, when we return to Florence Alabama

    This property was absolutely perfect for our holiday weekend stay. We typically stay near the lake, so this was our first experience near blue hole. The pier/dock/slip, was perfect and so comfortable. The kitchen had everything that we could need for a dinner. Beds were comfortable, and the whole home was so cozy. 10/10 recommend!

    Beautiful property. We had a large group including a toddler, kids, teens, adults, & 2 small dogs. Not exactly what we expected but that doesn't change the fact that it's a great property. Communication was great. Well stocked; lots of extras provided such as laundry detergent, Ziploc bags, foil, propane for the grill, etc.. At check out, there's no long chore list... take the trash out, gather soiled towels to the bathrooms, and return remotes where they belong. All reasonable! Kayaks were a huge hit! The baby/puppy gate on the deck is a big plus and the screened porch is great, especially the swing bed and plentiful seating! The step-in shower in the Master BR is roomy... much easier for one in our group who had knee surgery & still on crutches! A few things to be aware of: The private boat launch is VERY steep, narrow, and has a slight curve in it. If you're bringing a boat, unless it's small or a jet ski you will need to drive down the road to a public boat ramp, about 10-15 minutes away. We hit shallows that made it impossible to bring the boat to the dock at the property. The owner can't control this. (Our pontoon was a no go for the property ramp as well as getting to the property via water!) The creek bottom is very rocky in this area. It wasn't spotless upon arrival but not dirty. The bed in the Master BR is small... not sure if it's a queen or just a double. That would have been a deal breaker if I had known in advance due to back issues!

    We had the best time for our weekend stay! Communication with owner was the best I’ve ever had. Check in process was beyond easy. Plenty of room here and beautiful location. Everything was there at the property that we needed. Check out process was also super easy. Only downside was the big hot tub wasn’t ready and had no water in it but the blow up one worked for us as well! Would love to stay here again.

    Our family had a wonderful time at this house! It had great seating for games and relaxation for our family of 8 and plenty of bedrooms for us to spread out. The house was beautiful with a great view of the water. Debbie was able to answer all our questions and easy to work with! Will definitely recommend!
