About this property

Leave all your cares behind, and indulge your senses at Cody’s Cabin on Smith Lake. A short drive from Birmingham, you will feel like you’re a world away as you meander along a quiet road with picturesque views of the countryside. You’ll be welcomed inside this rustic Adirondack style log cabin by the aroma of knotty pine into a huge kitchen and dining room where you can enjoy a family breakfast next to a real wood fireplace with wide views of the lake.

Take a moment to catch your breath before stepping into the Great Room. Here you can read a book while watching the boats go by on the comfortable leather sofa, enjoy a glass of wine by the floor to ceiling rock fireplace, watch a DVD with the whole family, or just sit and enjoy the details of this exquisitely decorated room with pine wood beams stretched across the soaring ceilings.

You’ll be drawn up to the loft where you will find an open area with bonus daybed and office area with wireless internet connection and a private full-size bedroom with views of the Great Room and Smith Lake. Just off the Great Room, a hand-carved King Bed with a mural of the Lake and beautiful armoire with satellite TV make up the first master suite. The master bath features a claw foot tub and an incredible custom stone and slate shower large enough for two.

Wake up to awesome views of the lake from the second King suite with adjoining bathroom. The kids will love the 4th bedroom’s colorful full-size bed and 3rd bath. With all the beauty inside, you tend to forget the main reason you came here but eventually you will find yourself on the back covered porch looking out over amazingly clear and deep waters of the main body of Rock Creek.

A large fenced in yard allows Mom and Dad the opportunity relax on the porch swing and watch the kids and puppies play. When you’re ready to go down to the lake, a gentle walk leads you to the boat dock with swim pier and double jet-ski lifts. You’ll definitely want to take advantage of the large stainless gas grill enjoy your meal in the lakeside gazebo with picnic table and double glider. The house also has a state or the art security system with external cameras. With all these extraordinary amenities and accommodations for up to 10 people, you’ll want to come every season to Cody’s Cabin.

Beautiful getaway, perfect for families!

This cabin was everything we were looking for in an extended weekend vacation. The home is simply breathtaking, and the lake views are gorgeous. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms, and the layout of the property is ideal for multiple couples. Our group never felt crowded or in each other's way, and the privacy was really nice. The guys enjoyed fishing right off the shoreline, and the rest of enjoyed the mild weather in the shade of the gazebo. We're looking forward to going back to Cody's Cabin again!

Beautiful cabin. No wood for fireplaces was disappointing. Comfortable beds. No tv’s for kiddos in bedrooms, Wi-Fi was trouble some at times. I’m guessing water level was down which made ramp a little scarey to walk on, although we couldn’t find any fish in the lake 🐟 It was relaxing and plenty of seating overall. Location was nice and easy to find. Had a great birthday

Cody's Cabin's Critique

When we walked through the front door of the cabin we were amazed at how beautiful it is. The furnishings are amazing! The kitchen has more accessories than any other place we've ever stayed. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms totally modern and spotless. The back porch and swing were my happy spot. The gazebo with glider...another happy place. Super easy access to the water with dock to either fish from or jump off for a swim...but there is a ladder for the more timid swimmers. I think we spent more time on the huge deck than anywhere else. So nice with so much seating to enjoy the fireplace...even though we didn't build a fire. The view is incredible! Needless to say...we loved it! Thank you so much Larry, for sharing it with us!

Perfect for Family Getaway

Our family enjoyed 3 nights at Cody’s Cabin, making memories together. It was the perfect place for us, easily accommodating 2 sets of grandparents (in their 70’s), aunt & uncle (40’s), mom & dad & baby; as it offered plenty of bathrooms & bedrooms with king size beds. Additionally, fenced backyard made for less stress keeping up with a 1.5 year old and two dogs.
