For visitors far and away, Lake Martin is home

With nearly 41,000 acres of sparkling waters, the lake is an immediate respite from the outside world. Breathing in the fresh air, strolling the placid grounds, and enjoying nature at its best are all hallmarks of the authentic Lake Martin experience. And when you book a Lake Martin vacation rental, you can count on making special memories in an unforgettable place.

Things to do

Lake Martin brings it: nature, muscle cars…and a chimney!

A trip to Wind Creek State Park is a nature lover’s dream. Offering 1445 acres of endless beauty along the Lake Martin shores, the park offers an array of family-friendly activities. If you’ve booked your Lake Martin vacation rental for a weekend, you can host a private party on the Tarzan, also known as the world’s first floating water park. The nearby Wellborn Musclecar Museum, about a half hour’s drive, is a car lover’s dream, filled with vintage autos from the 1960s and ‘70s. And no one would blame you for taking a quick selfie at the iconic Chimney Rock before you leave town.

Activities

Life on (and off) the water

What can’t you do in Lake Martin? Water enthusiasts consider it one of the state’s best spots for a swim or a boat excursion. Music fans will appreciate concerts at the lake-view amphitheater and the annual jazz festival. Anytime is a good time for a lakeside picnic. For deeper exploration, guided and self-guided tours provide up-close access to water and wildlife. Go for a hike, a horseback ride, or a canoe ride. Even the shopping is intimate: a family-owned mall includes whimsical local wares in a cozy, homey environment.

Weather

Pleasant temps by the Lake Martin waters

Did someone say comfortable? They must have been talking about Lake Martin, whose enviable weather is the stuff of vacation dreams. Temperatures are mild throughout the year, even in the winter—it’s a struggle to find a day that falls below 40 degrees! An average temperature of around 80 degrees in July means it’s the perfect alternative to high-humidity spots elsewhere in the state. Remember, the lake provides some cool air, too. Light rain isn’t unusual, either, so be sure to pack that parka.

Natural features

Manmade beauty in a natural setting

Situated within three counties in Alabama, the 44,000-acre lake is surrounded by nearly 750 miles of craggy shorelines. It’s one of the largest manmade lakes in the country, but that’s not the only reason to book a Lake Martin vacation rental. The area is peppered with minuscule islands, all of which boast their own unique attractions. The most well-regarded by far is Chimney Rock, named so for its unusually shaped craggy formation. Goat Island, meanwhile, is packed with—you guessed it—an actual family of goats! The sandy shores of Sandy Island lead to a shallow beach.
