Hi Barbara! Thanks so much for the review. Sounds like you had a good experience. Did you mean to do a 1 star (terrible)? Doesn't seem to go with your description but if it is really a 1, I hope we can do something to make it up to you. NOT trying to sway you but we just have never received less than 4 so we want to make sure your intentions. Regardless, thank you so much for staying with us!!! Hope you can come back. Dave and Ann UPDATE: We still have not heard back from Ms. Barbara to see if she actually meant 1 star to no avail. I hate to have a 1 but reading her review, it has to be a mis-rating. Assumedly anyway. Thanks for checking out this property.

We had the best time staying at the Rose Cottage. It could not have been better stocked; we truly needed to bring nothing but ourselves. Communication was great, before and during our visit. The kids enjoyed Lake Weiss as well as the pool and trampoline. We'll definitely visit again!

Wonderful!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at Rose Cottage! Property was beautiful, clean and stocked better than any place I think I have ever stayed- they have thought of everything! We especially enjoyed nights around the firepit, catching the sunset from the dock & the seeing sunrise on the lake in the provided kayaks! Communication with the owners was fabulous, entire process was seamless!

A great family vacation

The Rose Cottage and surrounding property was the perfect meeting place for us and our friends to gather. The Rose Cottage was very clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. There were 9 of us total (4 adults and 5 kids) and there were plenty comfortable beds for all of us. The property had so many amenities we didn’t even get to use it to its fullest. It allowed us to enjoy the time together without having to pack everyone up and go elsewhere for entertainment. The hosts were very responsive to all our questions and needs. We loved staying there and it is on our list to return again.

We plan on making this an annual tradition!

We had such an amazing time even with it being the off-season and winter. Our children really enjoyed all of the amenities. The view of the lake is extraordinary. The home was clean and extremely easy to check into. We were greeted with a text message well before arrival and checked on throughout our stay. The hosts were very communicative and quick to respond. The home we stayed in was the Rose Cottage and we highly recommend it for families with little ones because there are tons of beds. We can’t wait to book again and come when it is warm outside. The inground trampoline was a huge hit with the children as well. Kayaks and fishing were easily accessible, and our boys took full advantage.

Lifetime Memories

I booked this cottage at the recommendation of the owners. We were initially going to only book the Magnolia and I am very grateful that we had this extra space. In fact, everyone commented on how happy they were with their sleeping arrangements. Rose Cottage is lovely. Beautifully decorated and comfortable. We intend to book this house for smaller groups of us to stay in the future. It is deceivingly spacious inside! We had everything we could possibly need (outside of food) available to us. I cannot stop gushing about Rose Cottage and the Magnolia house to friends and family. And I recommend this location to anyone.

Best wedding location ever.

We got married with 30 of our family at the Magnolia House and it was the best week of our lives. The house was AMAZING and PERFECT and BEAUTIFUL in every way. I don't even know where to begin. There were 32 of us, yet there were so many beds, everyone got a comfy place to sleep. The outside area with the covered pergola allowed us to hang out in the fresh air even during rain and we were dry and comfy. And the kitchen... we only catered two nights, so we had to feed all 32 of us for the full week, and the kitchen was large and well equipped. There was an extra fridge and freezer in the garage just a few steps away. We also had access to extra furniture, including white table linens, chairs, tables, and all sorts of decor (little lanterns, too!) that made the wedding so special. There is now a hot tub, which the kids loved. Also, the sand volleyball court. And the dock on the lake and the boat! The place comes with a boat (extra charge, but the boat is RIGHT THERE for you at your own dock). The boat was really the main hit, and we took it out every single day. Finally, Dave and Ann responded to every text and also made sure an additional person was on standby in case we needed anything; so, we had at least two contacts. On day one, we realized we forgot coffee and they brought us some within minutes. Perfection! We booked the adjacent Rose Cottage as well for four extra bedrooms, three baths, and another full kitchen. We celebrated two birthdays there towards the end of our trip and all 32 of us fit just fine in the living room/kitchen area for the party. It's just a few steps from the main house! We cannot say enough about how wonderful Magnolia House and the Rose Cottage were. If you are considering a gathering of family and/or friends for a celebration or just a big vacation, go to this place. You will never forget it!

Campbell-Barron wedding

It was amazing, the venue was all we wanted! My daughter said she felt like a princess and was able to share a great weekend with the wedding party. All of whom were close friends and relatives. The Rose cottage along with the Magnolia House allowed us to provide all the wedding party a place to stay, so we could celebrate and not worry about ppl driving home. For us safety/being responsible host to the wedding party was 1st on our minds. The guys brought their boats up and fished the morning of the wedding. The girls got ready together in the bridal Suite of the Magnolia House! We the parents used the Rose Cottage, we brought our big grill and my husband friends prepared the meat for the reception. So many possibilities with this house along with the Magnolia House. The Rose Cottage was well decorated and very clean. Like we were the first to ever stay there. I could go on and on, but to sum it up. Simply Amazing!

February Fishing Trip

The property was perfect for our needs. The inside was extremely nice and appeared to be recently renovated. Great wifi and phone coverage. Well stocked with cooking and cleaning supplies. Towels were well stocked. Property was beautiful with several different outside gathering areas and fire pits. The boat dock was unaccessible for launching our boats due to the low water level of the lake so we had to launch several miles away and then boat back to the property. We used the existing boat docks fine with ladders down to our boats. Highly recommend this property and will try to use again in the near future.

Thanks Jeff! So glad y'all had a great time. It was very nice to meet you and your dad and uncles. Great review. We appreciate it. One thing for you when you come back and anyone else reading this: next year Weiss Lake will only be dropping the water a couple of feet in winter so we are HOPING that the ramp will be usable. We also hope to add a section of floating dock to existing dock for ease of getting in and out. We gotta get Alabama Power's permission so we hope they say yes. Hope to see y'all again.

Perfect Family Getaway

House was a perfect family getaway for our family of five. It was clean, organized, and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the outdoor seating areas in the evenings. The owners have thought of everything from the throw blankets that helped make us feel cozy, to the stocked kitchen where we could cook our own meals. They even provided the sticks for roasting marshmallows. Our only complaint; construction noice started at 8am every morning and for this late to bed late to rise family that was a little irritating. We would definitely come back to this little perfect cottage. Also, curious to see what they are building. Thanks for the fun memories!

Thank you so much for doing a review! We appreciate all the details and are honored to get 5 stars! So sorry about the early "wake up calls"! Ugh! We are night people too. For those reading this, any time there is something onsite that bothers you, please let us know. Hospitality is our passion and we want our guests happy. For example, this scenario would be easy to correct as the grader is an employee of ours and was instructed to work on the far side of the 20 acre tract. We are developing the entire hillside with bungalows, cottages and homes to rent. Had we known, we would have been happy to have him start later or get on the other side of the property. I am so sorry that y'all were awakened so early. If you book again, please mention this and we will make it up to you. Thanks so much for staying with us and I am so glad you had a great time. Happy New Year! Dave, Ann, Josh and Sarah and the Crew!

The perfect venue, highly recommend

We used this property for our wedding and turned it into a weekend long event. This place could not have been more perfect for a fall wedding. The views were incredible, the temperature was just right, the magnolias gave us amazing lighting for photos and between the two properties on the lot, there was plenty of space for all of our guests to feel comfortable and enjoy their stay. Any of our needs for the actual wedding itself were responded to quickly and handled right away. I have no complaints of any kind and anyone lucky enough to book this place for their wedding is getting a dream venue for a steal. Will absolutely be coming back.
