About this property

BIG LakeHouse 15 min to Tuscaloosa, 14 beds, great fishing

Discover our large lakeside haven just 15 minutes from Tuscaloosa. With a spacious kitchen and 14 beds, including 4 cozy bedrooms, 2 living areas, and an expansive deck, our home is designed for comfort and enjoyment. Enjoy Disc Golf, swings, basketball, or the firepit outside. Spend quality time with your adventure crew fishing or kayaking, or enjoy the game room upstairs while watching your favorite teams on the TV.

This is a very spacious 2-story, 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with two living spaces and 14 beds. The master bedroom is on the main floor and includes a king-size bed as well as a daybed with a trundle and the master bathroom with soaker tub and a separate shower. The second main level bedroom has a queen bed. Deck access, a half-bath, and laundry are also on the main level.

The second living level includes two bedrooms: one queen bed with a daybed + trundle and the other room contains one queen bed. Full bathroom with tub upstairs as well. The upstairs hallway includes a built-in twin bed as well as a single twin daybed.

The second entertainment space has a great playroom with a ping-pong table, dartboard, TV, and two daybeds (with trundles) for extra sleeping space. Free access to the 4-player Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle arcade game, try to beat our high score!

The deck off the back of the house overlooks the peaceful, private lake. Down by the water is a fishing dock with kayaks. Test out your climbing skills and boulder around the giant rock at the dock. Enjoy the luxury of turning on the waterfall to the adjacent rock. (Enjoy all outdoor activities at your own risk.)

There is a great fire-pit area in the backyard and is perfect for a night under the stars with friends and family. Enjoy outdoor activities suitable for all ages such as web swing, disc golf, basketball goal, and rope swing. This is a very relaxing and peaceful home and yet so convenient to Tuscaloosa and only 10 miles to Bryant-Denny Stadium.

All guests will have access to the entire home, fire-pit area, and the dock on the water. There is great fishing on this lake and motorized boats are not allowed (troll motors only) so it is easy to relax and enjoy the calmness of the water, take a swim, or paddle around in one of the kayaks. Want to fish deeper? Inquire about our Jon Boat.
