We stayed at Ben‘s place for a fishing trip. There was plenty of parking for our boats and the drive under carport was an added bonus! Super safe at the end of a dead end street, Everything was as described in the listing. It was spotless and fit our needs well. Would stay there again.

Property was clean and as listed. However, there was a slight smell of smoke. The house was well stocked with supplies and we enjoyed our stay overall.

Robert, thanks for staying at The Ridge Cabin, Sorry about the slight smell of smoke, and as you know there is a a wood burning fire place. We have had the rental since 2019, and you are the first guest to ever note a slight smell of smoke. Unfortunately, also it is possible a prior guest might not have followed the no smoking rules. Thanks for the review and I will look into it. 8-5-2021

Great little getaway.

This is a great place off the beaten path but still close to town and the lake. Our only issue was we were unaware that there was only showers there and no bath tub. Our toddler didn't really like the shower. Other than that we loved it and will most likely visit this place again real soon.

Guntersville

The home was great. The only thing that I didn't like was the fact that to get to the beds on the first floor, you had to go outside to get to them. We didn't use those. Also, I and my wife have bad knees, and the steps were a little tough. But overall, our stay was great

All I can say is Wow! My husband and I, along with our dogs, rented this cozy mountain top property for a Family Reunion over Labor Weekend. We were blown away by the sheer beauty of this property, which sits on a generous sized lot with views of Guntersville Lake through the trees. The home was immaculate, and the king sized bed in the master bedroom was VERY comfortable! What we enjoyed the most was the two-level porches, one screened and the other open yet "dog proof." This is where we spent the majority of time when we were not at the reunion in Guntersville State Park. Also, this property was so close to the State Park that it only took us around 20 minutes to make the trip to our reunion venue!Highly recommend this beautiful property, and we will be back next year!

Great communication with owner. Pics had me thinking I was closer to water and walking trail, but leaves were beautiful. Probably my misinterpretation. Also did not realize all living area was up two flights of stairs. Loved boat area for son’s boat and access to garage. Extremely nice owner!

Patti, I am glad your sons fishing tournament went well. And he had all the boat storage he needed. We have 5 properties around Guntersville Lake, Maybe one of the others would be a better fit next time you are here for a fishing tournament. Just inquire and I will give you the VRBO id numbers. Thanks William

Top of the mountain!

This was an exceptionally good experience for our girlfriends retreat. The property was clean and comfortable. We even had a visitor each morning and night - Trixie, the neighborhood greeter dog. Be sure to bring treats! (I left some for the next folks). We were surprised at the drive up to the property. Be prepared for the ultimate in steep mountain roads, but this would not deter us from staying again. The neighborhood was quiet, serene, and emersed in nature.Ben was an excellent host and was very quick to communicate with me regarding our upcoming trip!5 stars for sure.Dr. Melissa Tanner
