About this property

Private Cabin on Water, Fish & Boat from YOUR DOCK, amazing sunsets, no stairs!!

From the moment you turn onto the property the view of the water and dock will completely relax you!

When you open the door you see the charm of this cute little cabin with finished wood walls and high ceilings and Buck Deer themed. It's cozy but has everything needed and looks brand new. Cabin was custom built by a family of builders that planned every detail. Your host is one of them!

The dock is calling for you! You notice the same charm on the porch with rocking chairs as you head out to dock passing by the firepit gathering space ideal for night time campfires and smores. The dock will awe you. You know you will have a great stay! The dock has electric, lights, and the slip fits any size boat. The dock is great for fishing, swimming, watching sunsets, and star gazing.

The large lot is surrounded by woods yet in a safe neighborhood with fulltime residents close by. The two large porches act as additional space for meal prep and eating and enjoying the rocking chairs and hammock. You'll find peace in the beautiful nature which provides a disconnect from the stress of life - there is no stress at Buck Creek Cabin.

The main rule is everyone has to be on the dock for sunset every day. And it is a great spot for star gazing or enjoy a gentle rain shower under the covered portion.

Kids and pets love it here with plenty of space to run and enjoy and they love sleeping in the loft! The ladder to loft may be difficult for younger children, please be aware.

There is plenty of space for parking cars and trailers and there is a RV outlet.

There is one full bathroom and an outdoor hot water shower - there's something nice about a shower with sky view. There is a kitchen with all kitchenware - note there is no stove/oven but 2 gas grills with pot burners and a toaster oven, microwave. Cooking outdoors is a part of the Buck Creek Cabin experience.

If you like to hike - the state park is just 3 miles south by car or boat. There is a marina there and they have a swim area and playground. If you like amazing views while hiking you need to visit Providence Canyon nearby. Kolomoli mounds is interesting too.

About the host

Hosted by Barbie Hartsfield

Host profile image
Barbie (owner) designed the cabin after finding the lot during a week-end trip to the area . She and her family built the cabin - - Her father from Wisconsin, her father-in-law, and son did all the work from ground up!

Why they chose this property

Fell in love with the clear water and sandy beaches and tall Georgia pine trees and the surrounding Alabama Hills - the lake is Ideal for swimming, boating and really great fishing!!

What makes this property unique

The cabin is right on the water with large private covered dock and boat slip, electric and lights - it provides great fishing and the most amazing sunsets over the water! Great swimming and boating and nature watching and star gazing! You can sit on the covered dock and enjoy a summer rain shower - float on rafts and enjoy music from the ipod player that is provided. Dock is large enough for the whole family to enjoy fishing - the lights provide great night fishing. I've had guests that love the dock so much they have slept several nights on it! It is a rejuvenating - relaxing - escape "off grid" from busy stressful living - hear the wind in the pines - the birds of all kinds - warm sun in the day and cozy fire and star gazing at night!
