Well worth it
This property is in a great location and exactly as described. Quiet cul de sac with neighborhood boat ramp within walking distance. Super clean and well stocked. Lots of room and very comfortable beds. Very nice showers that had plenty of hot water and pressure.Appliances all seemed fairly new and everything worked great. We cooked a few meals and had everything we needed to prep and serve. Outdoor grill and furniture in great condition. We didn't need anything during the stay but Dawn was very responsive to questions prior to the stay. Wouldn't hesitate to book again!

Perfect!
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. All the beds are super comfortable. We look forward to renting this property again!

Wonderful lake house
We can't say enough great things about our stay. The house was beautifully remodeled and very clean. The lake view and the firepit are a major plus. The kitchen was well-stocked. The owners responded quickly to any questions. They even gave us a credit because the ice maker wasn't making ice. We highly recommend this listing.

This lake house was just what we needed. It is obvious to anyone who walked in the house can feel the love and care that goes into each of the details, and being steps from the lake was just that more amazing. The kids ended the weekend with a snore roast,

Christmas getaway
We loved this house, it was so cozy and we had some fires at night outside at the cute fire pit area. The boat launch was basically next to the house which made it so convenient. Communication with them was awesome, they even had the house decorated for Christmas which was perfect because we brought all of our gifts! We definitely will return. Thanks for the memories!!

Five stars!
This is probably the best kept place I’ve ever stayed. It was exceptionally clean and well stocked. Quiet neighborhood made for a peaceful visit. The driveway and neighborhood boat launch can be challenging if you’re bringing a larger bass boat, but with a number of other boat launches (including Waterfront) within minutes of the house that wasn’t a problem at all. There was even a place within walking distance to get firewood for the firepit. We would definitely stay again!
