Absolutely amazing! Property was even better than the listing…super clean, smelled wonderful, great linens, well equipped…the owners have thought of every need.

This is a great place to stay to get away from the chaos of Tuscaloosa. Quiet and peaceful but still just a quick 20 minute drive to UA and Tuscaloosa . The house was very clean and exactly as pictured. We hope to go back when it isn't so hot to really enjoy the beauty of the outdoor space. Keith was an excellent host. Very responsive and kind. We will not hesitate to stay here again! Thank you for your hospitality!!

Absolutely perfect! Easy and quick drive to Ttown, it was about 10 minutes. Beautifully decorated and impeccably clean. The view of the lake especially at sunrise is breathtaking. This will be our forever choice spot in Tuscaloosa. The hosts are lovely and incredibly responsive.
