Several outdoor games are provided. Note the cottage is on 431 Hwy which is between the cottage and the lake. Keep an eye on the little kiddos.
HOUSE RULES - You must be 25 years old to rent the cottage. If you plan on having more that 6 guests it must be pre-approved. There is no smoking or vaping inside the cottage. In an effort to conserve energy please do not leave exterior doors open. Most importantly you are to relax and have fun!
HISTORY - The little cottage with a lot of history has undergone a year long complete remodel and update to ensure a comfortable stay for families and friends. This building was built in the late 1940's as a restaurant for the Lake Shore Motel owned by our grandparents. The building has had many popular restaurants in it and other businesses including a tackle shop.
This is a year round get away. Bring your boat (or rent one) and enjoy beautiful Guntersville Lake, known as Playground of the South. You can fish from the shore, boat or on many of the public piers around. Take leisurely strolls on the walking trails at the edge of the lake or hike the trails behind the cottage around the island. Only 1 mile away offers City Harbor with restaurants, Levi's bar, Home Re-Decor and a cigar bar. Downtown has Moody Brews Coffee Shop, restaurants, shops, Fants and Bakers on Main (where Judy and Mary sell their custom furniture), The Rock House Eatery, Museum and much more.

Very gracious host and will be booking with Mary again in the near future!! Would definitely recommend this property for anyone that is bringing their boat.

Summary: My friends and I went to celebrate our 50th birthdays this year. This place had a great location, clean rooms and a nice gathering outback. However, one disadvantage was to excessive noise from traffic, as the house is located right next to the main road.

Summary: My Mother and myself stayed for 2 nights over Thanksgiving at this VRBO. We found the cabin to be very comfortable with a lot of unique charm and aesthetically pleasing. The Host Mary Brewer had the Cabin stocked with lots of amenities like snacks, drinks, bath and kitchen items, cleaning supplies, clear directions, firewood for both the outdoor fire pit and the inside fireplace along with a “Welcome Amish Friendship Bread Loaf” gift. The backyard had a great sitting space with a working gas grill and blackstone griddle. The proximity of the cabin to Downtown Lake Guntersville shopping and the City Harbor was excellent! The history of the Cabin itself is very interesting and there was lots of information to read about that. I would highly suggest this location for anyone wanting to get away for a couple of days and be close to Downtown Lake Guntersville or for anyone interested in fishing and having a fishing cabin to stay at while on Lake Gunnersville. If there is one negative at all about this Cabin it is the noise from the road that runs in front of the Cabin. I stayed in the bedroom closest to the road and had no issues sleeping due to the trucks passing by. There is a noise canceling machine available in that bedroom and great blackout curtains. The other two bedrooms are far enough away from the road that there would be no problems with sound. I would definitely come back and I give this VRBO Cabin and it’s owner Mary a 5 out of 5 stars!-Shaun C.

Summary: Stayed here 3 nights and loved the coziness of the place. Huge kitchen area and plenty of room to relax. Beds were comfortable and clean. Mary was awesome as a host and thought of everything and even made us some bread that was delicious. A bit of road noise if I am being honest but we were out and about most of the time and I sleep like a rock so not a huge problem. If you stay I encourage you to read about the history of the place which Mary has photos and readable info to check out. Very cool.

Summary: Great place, everything was easy. Would not recommend for little kids or pets as the front yard sits right on Hwy 431 and cars are doing 60mph+ out front. Less than a mile to the waterfront shops/restaurants and downtown.
