What a perfect little cabin stay on the water. Property was clean and well maintained, inside & out. The patio swing was perfect (we did have to clean this off but it’s outside). Plenty of parking space for the truck and boat trailer. Not far from town but enough away to enjoy the quiet.

We had a great stay, property was clean and convenient to the water. We did some fishing and sightseeing in the surrounding areas. We enjoyed a nice dinner at Texas Smoking Gun steak house in Eufaula, Al. We recommend Huggin’ Molly Restaurant in Abbeville, AL. We enjoyed our stay at The Baithouse. A

An inviting getaway

I took my mom for a short getaway. We had a great time! The cabin was delightful...very clean and well furnished. We spent most of our time on the screened porch. Beautiful views of the water! It was very relaxing! I would highly recommend staying here!

Great Trip

Perfect location for our fishing trip, my older brother and I came down Wednesday afternoon, my oldest son and my grandson came down late Friday afternoon, awesome place, great location, store and boat ramp with in 1/8 of a mile from house, absolutely great time for all of us, grandson showed out catching the biggest fish and I think the most fish, he'll never let me forget it. We all work different shifts at work, hard to get everyone together, hopefully we can plan a late fall trip this year, would love to come back.

Awesome!

Our overall impression of this property is wonderful! Everything from the covered carport, covered deck, lower patio, covered boat dock, close to boat ramp, the house is clean, cute, happy, and beautiful view of the channel. We took our kids for their high school graduation trip. Was perfect for boating, fuel on the water at Baker’s Landing nearby, the bridge, the dam, and Gopher Island were our favorite spots on the lake. Did some thrifting and souvenir shopping in Eufalah. Super quiet place to hang out with the family! Highly recommend for a quiet getaway!
Quiet mornings on the deck!
Breakfast on the favorite swing!
Beautiful sunset down Thomas Mill Creek!
Bridge on lake by Eufalah!

It was a cute place in the perfect setting! Right on the water and the sunset was Beautiful I must say I knew before we got there we had picked right place! The reason I knew it was right is because the host communicated so well.This was before arrival. We got great recommendations as where to go and what to see. Gave guidance on where to fish We had no trouble what so ever with our stay. We had quick question our host answered back within 10 minutes. We had a great trip with the Best accommodations. Would stay again! Highly recommend the Baithouse!!!
