Note: there is a gradual decline from the parking spot to the front of the house and there is a stone pathway that is uneven in some places due to natural stone. We do not recommend renting if you have difficulty walking as this is an old cabin that has been renovated and we strive to keep the natural charm and feel via unique landscaping. Additionally there are 2 steps in to front door and about 10 steps from back porch to the boat dock. Please do not rent if you have trouble walking up or down 1-10 steps.
Note: Boat is not included. Covered boat slip is also not available for use; however, boats can be tied to the dock from two points for any docking needs.
Note: Boats in photos & on property not included in rental but you are welcome to bring your own & tie at the dock. Enjoy the big water view on this cabin which is located on the beautiful Lake Martin, Alabama.
Note: only two small parking spaces available. If you drive large vehicles then only one spot is available. Additional parking available in grassy area available on first come first serve basis, as that area is shared with the community and is park at your own risk. Public boat ramp and public boat and trailer parking is available first come first serve nearby (approximately 10-15 minutes away). Note: boat trailer parking is not available at the property. Note: we do not have a pool available. That is a glitch in VRBO’s software and we have requested a fix.
Note: water levels are lowered in the fall and winter by Alabama Power via the Lake Martin Dam. The full pool level during the warm months at Lake Martin is 491 mean sea level (msl) and then starts to decline beginning September 1st. Sometimes, changes will keep the high summer of 491 msl for up to an additional six weeks longer, extending full pool into October. Please visit lakeMartin.com for water level information.

My wife and I had a fantastic stay at the property this past weekend. The home was clean, comfortable, and clearly very well cared for, which made settling in effortless. The deck was a standout feature—spacious, relaxing, and perfect for taking in the lake. Beautiful views from sunrise to sunset. I recommend the lake house for anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable getaway.
The perfect house in the perfect location! The owner was responsive and great! Check in and check out procedures were clear and easy! House was pristine! Highly recommend!
Very nice property owner was super helpful and responsive and views and location were amazing. Parking can be a little tricky with more than 2 cars but doable. We had a great time. Would highly recommend.

Great location!
My husband and I spent three nights here celebrating our anniversary. We were looking for a quiet getaway on Lake Martin and this suited us perfectly. The big water access close to Kowaliga can’t be beat. The artwork and cottage charm are precious.
Enjoyed our stay more than we expected after evacuating from hurricane Milton. The house is in a fantastic area and very comfortable.
John, the property manager was prompt with responses and accommodating. Would rent again!

Why they chose this property
This is our family lake cabin. Our Mother always dreamed of owning a lake cabin. We bought the home in 2015 and in 2017 started renovations. Only a few short months after starting renovations, my Mom was diagnosed with cancer and passed away. The way the cabin sits today was her dream. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
