Annual Girl's Trip

We enjoyed our 3 night stay. The venue was beautiful as well as very comfortable. Our group consisted of 4 senior adult ladies and we all felt very safe. It was conveniently located for all the area attractions on our to see list. We took everything we needed, but if we had forgotten an item, I'm sure it was available because the house was very well stocked.

Great stay!

We loved this home! We had family ranging from 70 yrs to 7 years and all were very well accommodated. The bedrooms were spacious & each had a sitting area with TV that allowed for a little privacy when needed. The kitchen was very well stocked with pans, dishes, etc, making it so easy to make meals (which we did). And..the view is amazing! We’ll certainly stay again when we’re back in the area and would highly recommend.

Golfing Vacation

The Grassy Knoll has an amazing & very tranquil view of Wilson Lake, with picturesque sun rise & sun sets! The home is very spacious & accommodating! The bedding gets an "A+", from the comforter, to the linens, mattress & pillows! Very comfy! Kitchen well stocked for cooking in! Perfect location for our week of golfing! Also, just a short distance to Florence AL for all your dining & shopping needs! Would definitely stay again!

Dixieland Tour - Heron Cottage

Heron cottage offered a delightful respite during our 2 week deep south Dixieland tour. Perched upon the banks of the Tennessee River, the house provides fantastic water views of the lake. The décor is modern, cheerful and very clean. The house boasts 3 huge, lovely & comfortable bedrooms, each with its own bath and TV (easy and consistent internet also). The kitchen was well stocked with all the items needed for meal preparation. The location is so convenient to visit all 4 cites of the lovely Shoals area. We loved the extra attention to the small details such as the cozy Christmas decorations. Even more, we are so grateful to Shannon who accommodate a sudden change in travels plans by allowing us to come one day earlier. Thank you!!!!! We look forward to returning to your wonderful home!
