About the host

Hosted by Lisa Campfield

Why they chose this property

Rural Lee County is quiet & peaceful but close enough to Auburn and Opelika to enjoy some city life. There may be a random deer in the back yard or a flock of turkeys crossing the property. We truly have 4 seasons and there’s likely a celebration of that season close by. Although we boast the tranquility of the property, there's always something to do a few miles down the road. Salem Auction is typically every Friday night. Check FB page for specifics. Rocky Top Farms is close https://www.thefarmatrockytop.com/
The Opelika Sports plex offers day passes but the pickleball courts are available at no cost. https://www.opelika-al.gov/391/Opelika-Sportsplex-Aquatics-Center
Visit https://www.aotourism.com/events/?bounds=false&view=list&sort=date for local events. For Old School fun, check out Rock and Roll Pinball in Downtown Opelika. We have fabulous restaurants too and will be happy to make recommendations.

What makes this property unique

Enjoy the quiet, relaxing, private guest home with a large front porch that has rockers and a swing to enjoy your slow morning coffee or drink of choice. The side deck has outdoor dining, a gas grill and string lights. Other than the owner's home, there’s no other dwellings on the 15-acre property giving you a sense of serenity. With all the modern amenities, relax, unwind, read a book or simple just feel at home and be our guest. We are close to events if desired, but remote enough to rest and restore.
