Great property in a quiet cove, very relaxing, lots of space and comfortable with great amenities.

This property is a great place for a short getaway or longer stay. Dock to Do Little has everthing you need packaged in a completely remodeled house. This house has great new beds, baths and the kitchen and family room are open and have all you need. The front and back enclosed proches are worth the stay. Excellent Wifi and TVs are great. We used the firepit and grill each night with a view the water. Dock is brand new and boat ramp is 2 doors down. If you want a place that is a getaway with a lot to do , but feels like home.........this is the place!

Meet Your Hosts – The Schellers

Hi, we’re the Schellers! We’ve been happily married since 1993 and are loving every step of this adventure called life. Now retired, we spend much of our time doing what we love most—traveling the world and exploring new places.

Over the years, we’ve stayed in vacation homes across 31 U.S. states, 5 territories, and more than 42 countries—including unforgettable stays in Hawaii, Cape Cod, South Korea, France, Bali, New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, Costa Rica, England, and Germany (to name just a few). Those experiences have shaped how we host today—with attention to detail, comfort, and a personal touch.

We’re proud to now own and self-manage two vacation homes right on the beautiful shores of Lake Guntersville, and we’re thrilled to share them with fellow travelers looking to fish, relax, recharge, and make lifelong memories.
