3B 2B Elk River home Why stay in a hotel when you can have a home? Work & Play
When you step into this home, you will feel the stress of life fall away. There is something about River Life that just slows things down. You will Relax, Renew and make Memories! Be sure to bring your fishing gear. 2 Kayaks and 2 life jackets will be provided. You can bring your canoes. No matter which season you choose, there will always be some sort of wildlife for your enjoyment. In the spring you may see families of geese with their new little ones, and if you are lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of wood ducks with their babies. These are more difficult to see because they are much more skittish. Be sure to bring your Binoculars!!! In the summer the river comes alive with bait fish schooling and bass chasing them. Bring your Fishing Gear!!! The white egrets will be seen along with blue herons. Since you’re staying across from Bald Eagle Holler, you may see eagles!! Google the Call the eagles make, and this will help you identify them. The young eagles will not have a white head and are more difficult to identify. In the fall the bluffs will be showing off their beautiful colors! We have resident geese that stay all winter, maybe they prefer our company instead of the Cold North??? In the late fall and early winter, flocks of American white pelicans arrive. These are the second largest bird in the U.S. As they fly over the water they look like a string of pearls. You may even hear the loud rushing sound as they corral a large school of bait fish and watch the feeding frenzy begin. These pelicans are not vocal so they sound you will hear are their wings. It’s really amazing! No matter the time of your visit, we hope you will experience the sights and the joy of living on the Elk River! Fully Stock Kitchen Sprawling Backyard 2 Kayaks with Life Jackets and Paddles Screened in Porch great for Morning coffee and late night winding down from the day on the water. In September TVA begins lowering the water in Wheeler Lake which affects our water levels until Spring. There is a Boat ramp about 2 miles from the house and the channel will take you to Wheeler Lake. .

Clean, cool, comfortableStayed here over the 4th, visiting a family local to the area. Spent most of our time on the water (2nd creek / dam area). Great base for our trip

I'm glad you had a good stay and I'm glad your daughter liked out furniture. We hope you will come again.
The property was lovely. Very clean. Nice respite away from the cities around Huntsville. We enjoyed peaceful walks and the river view was beautiful. Communication with the host was easy and the checkout instructions were very simple and easy to walk out.
Was able to have family and Great Granddaughter over Saturday for Birthday parties.

Our favorite stay by far. The house was on a beautiful setting of the elk river. Every comfort of home We really enjoyed the screened in porch where we could sit and watch the river and the ducks and geese. It was a very peaceful and restful stay.

We had a wonderful stay. The river was peaceful, and the pelicans flying in were beautiful to see. The home was clean and decorated nice. The beds comfy.

I'm so glad you got to see the pelicans!! That is such an awesome sight! Thank you again for choosing our home. Hope you will visit again.
Perfection! Everything you could need for a week away. Neighborhood was great. Loved the backyard. Great kitchen. Beds were good. Had a wonderful time and will be staying again next time we visit our family again. Perk for us was its central location to all the family we were visiting. Would not change a thing. Much better than staying in a hotel.
My family and I stayed at Elk River while our home was being repaired. We stayed there for over a month, which was actually during the holidays. I must say that this was the best home away from home that we could have ever imagined. The home was beautiful inside and out. It was very spacious and cozy. It was clean and provided such a welcoming atmosphere from the moment we walked in until the day we left. The host provided very detailed instructions for everything we needed during our stay and she even provided restaurant suggestions for the area. The neighorhood was quiet and the view of the river from the screened in patio every morning was absolutely breath taking. The kitchen and the bathrooms were fully stocked with everything that we needed. The host was very attentive and responded immediately whenever I had a question. I could not have asked for a better home or host. I would definitely recommend this home for an extended stay or just a weekend getaway!!!

Thank you for the review. We are so glad our home met your needs.
The house is in immaculate condition and just what we needed for a peaceful, relaxing stay. Really enjoyed watching / listening to all various birds sitting while sitting in the screened in back patio.

Thank you for trying our home! We hope you will come again! The wild life is amazing here! Always something to watch!! Thank you for the review!
The host was accommodating and provided fast and friendly communication. The house was clean, comfortable, and was well stocked with bathroom and kitchen essentials. My family is hoping to rent again during the spring/summer months to utilize the kayaks and river front. Five stars all around!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with you! House was clean and very nice! Thanks for a great stay! We enjoyed time with our family! Yes its about a 15 minute drive to town but well worth it for the views. Thanks so much for opening up your home to us.

We are so glad you enjoyed your time at our home. The views are worth being out of the hustle and bustle of city living! It's nice to slow down and enjoy the outside sights and sounds. We hope you will visit us again.
If you like hustle and bustle, loud traffic and obnoxious neighbors this is NOT the place for you. This place is super quiet (except for birds chirping) very clean and neat, spacious bedrooms and living/ family room. Perfect for a little get away or a place to collect your thought 10 of of 10

About the host
Hosted by .
We are from Athens, AL and we also live on the Elk River. We bought this home so we could share our love of the water with others. There is something about being on the water that just calms the Soul!! We go out on the water as often as possible. My husband fishes a lot! And I watch the wild life, sunrises and sunsets!! Our goal is to make our home comfortable and enjoyable. We hope you will enjoy your stay at our cottage on the The Elk!
Why they chose this property
This home has access and beautiful views of the river. You can fish from the bank of the river or you can tie your boat up to the sea wall after a day of exploring the River and sloughs nearby. Fish are waiting to be caught. You may choose to go kayaking or maybe you just want to sit outside, relax and get some sun!! TVA controls the water levels on the Elk River. In September the water levels drop considerably and we only have views. In the Spring the water levels return to normal. However, TVA can drop water levels at anytime.
What makes this property unique
We have tried to provide everything you will need to make your stay comfortable, from mattresses that are comfortable to a full stocked kitchen!
