About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

This home has been a VRBO favorite lakehouse rental since 2007. Our great rental experience inspired us to renovate, refurnish and even add on a new master bedroom suite. This Lakefront Retreat is perfect accommodation for Alabama Game Day weekends, family vacations or corporate retreats. With four bedrooms and four bathrooms, 2 king size beds, 4 queens size beds and a sleeper sofa, there is plenty of room for a large family or two small families. This house is conveniently located off of Highway 69 N and is only 11 miles from Downtown Tuscaloosa. While access to Tuscaloosa is convenient, you will be taken back by the total experience this house has to offer. The house has a comfortable feel, a spectacular open water view of Lake Tuscaloosa and a gentle sloping lawn to water where you will find the perfect dock to enjoy Lake Tuscaloosa. This house sits on a beautiful lot which provides a park-like setting.

The interior features a spacious great room with vaulted ceiling and spectacular view of the lake. Large flat panel TVs add to the enjoyment. The kitchen features granite countertops and stainless appliances.

Bama Gameday Weekend

This was the perfect venture for our family weekend. There were 9 of us and plenty of space for everyone to gather together as well as privacy when needed. The views from the deck are perfect. House is very nicely appointed and the furniture on the deck was so comfortable. 20 minute drive to campus. We hope to visit again. Roll Tide!

You Won’t Want to Leave

Seriously, the house looked like no one had ever used it!! We loved sitting on the back porch looking at the gorgeous lake! The home was well decorated, clean, spacious and the kitchen had EVERYTHING!!! We were in town for our son’s wedding with our other adult children and grandbaby and everyone wished we’d planned to stay longer. We made wonderful memories in the home and hope to come back! The owner was so kind to work with!

great family space

this is second year we have rented this home. we like the separated levels so kids can socialize and play ping pong and karaoke on lower level while aduts enjoy main level. the loft with 2 beds is a great bonus. the dock with 2 boat slips makes a great swim place with small sandy beach and shallow water.

Perfect beyond measure!

This is the second time we have stayed at this amazing VRBO on Lake Tuscaloosa and it was superb! The owner is extremely friendly and accommodating. The home is well equipped and the views are spectacular! Everything about the home is not only comfortable (beds, outdoor furniture…etc.) but beautiful. Although our daughter is now a graduate from UA, we certainly will return for some future football games! Thank you for a five star stay and ROLL TIDE! ❤️

Needs to be complete

The accommodations were really nice. Exceptions were, there was a fireplace, but no wood to burn. Having a fire going would have made it really nice. There was a propane fire pit, but NO propane. We actually left a tank that we purchased that was almost full. The floors need to be mopped well. Several of my grandkids developed “Walmart” feet. But, the views were great. Places for many to sit and eat. Very nice facility to spend time away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Hope to return soon!

We had a wonderful stay on Lake Tuscaloosa thanks to Mr. Barry and the accommodations provided. My family all commented how much they liked having their own sleeping quarters but were able to gather in the living room, porch and down by the water. The ping pong table was also a huge bonus for my kids. We hope to be back next summer as we all agreed a week on Lake Tuscaloosa was a very relaxing and enjoyable way to visit with family.
