We rented this house while in town for a wedding. It was very clean, well stocked and comfortable. Owner is very quick to answer any messages. Lots of amenities and kitchen is well stocked if cooking at the home. Screened in porch overlooking the lake was great for coffee on cool mornings.

Great Vacation Rental House

Loved this place! The house was charming and well-kept. The lake and pier were beautiful. Chris and Al, the owners, were friendly and attentive to our every need. We've stayed in lots of vacation rentals, but this one by far had everything you could need and more. Wish we could have told Chris and Al good-bye, but we left early in the morning. We would stay here again!

Laid Back Wilson Lake Home

We spent a relaxing week on the shore of Wilson Lake. The home is equipped with everything you need to be comfortable. We enjoyed lounging on the screened porch as well as the dock. The hosts were cordial, inviting, and available. We will be back to this wonderful home on the lake.

Chris is an amazing host. Very accommodating. The house was well stocked over and beyond expectations. We enjoyed playing games on the screened in porch, laying out on the deck, sleeping in very comfortable beds. Just as if you were at home. We will definitely be back. Also we loved meeting Smelly Nelly and Chipper, the fur babies. Excellent! Lori

Mom/sisters girls trip

This trip was a wish my 82 year old mother wanted to have with her 3 daughters. We had an absolutely perfect girls trip! Chris and Al could not have been more attentive and helpful! Their restaurant suggestions were perfect! The house had everything you could possibly ever need! Not to mention the beautiful lake view! Hopefully we will be able to visit again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend here. The house was so nice & was extremely well stocked. We really loved spending time in the screened-in porch. The view was beautiful. Chris & Al were so attentive. They even helped with getting our boat in & out of the water & allowed us to use their covered slip. Their dogs, Chipper & Nellie, are fun! We definitely plan to go back.

Beautiful and friendly views

We came in town for Thanksgiving and Chris was wonderful about checking immediately that everything was good with the house. There was everything you might need in case you forgot-coffee, teas and toiletries. Beautiful dock and back porch very quiet neighborhood with beautiful views of the water from the front and back of the house. We slept so good my husband insisted I ask what mattresses were on the beds!

About the host

Hosted by CHRIS

Host profile image
Chris and Al met in the Dallas, TX area, married and when we retired we moved back to Al's home (where his heart never left). We bought his grandmother's home and built another. We love to share that which we love so dearly.

Why they chose this property

This property is the perfect slice of heaven. Every season is picturesque in this lakeside community. Sunsets on the river can be breathtaking but there are also an abundance of stars at night, owls hooting, mocking birds, cardinals, deer grazing, cotton and corn fields, wildflowers, geese, ducks, egrets, eagles, hummingbirds, turtles, muskrat, fox, beaver, chipmunks, raccoons, armadillo....... it goes on and on. Ohhhh and the fishing is pretty darn awesome!

What makes this property unique

Just steps from the water. Come in by boat or by land. We offer kayaks with a signed waiver and we have some floats available for just lounging in the lake. Check with us about the possibility of a pontoon rental. Fish right off the pier. Relax on a hammock, grill your meals on the back porch on a propane grill or smoker. Enjoy toasting marshmallows at the chiminea. Did I mention that you are surrounded by history, whether you have an interest in barn quilts, Civil War, Indian sites, the Natchez Trace, locks and dams, Amish tours, Music history, University of Alabama or just the cute town of Florence, Alabama. It’s all here or not too far away!
