Peace and Tranquility!

My wife and I are devoted grandparents and are loving this stage of life. That said we still an occasional getaway to recharge (grandparent batteries drain much quicker 😜) We love Guntersville for the small town ambience and non tourist trap setting. However we could never find that spot that offered the peace and tranquility that was so needed. Until now! Lake views and screened in deck, 3 bedrooms.and comfortable furniture ( a big issue with many VRBO's.) I just can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was. We were there in December, so the lake was quiet and the fall leaves were stunning. We will be back in the Spring and Summer and review again, but I highly recommend this place if you want quaint and quiet. We've found our getaway.

Great Visit

House and boathouse are great! Driveway is steep. I recommend following the owners directions for accessing the driveway. Also, putting your boat in the water before going to the house works best.

Getaway at the cove

My family felt right at home, even though the weather was rainy, it was relaxing and cozy! They had everything we would ever need and much needed family time with the grandmother and grandchildren and great grandchildren. We created very special memories at the cove! Thank you Stephanie and Donovan!

The house was great although we spent most of our time outside grilling, fishing from the boathouse, and golfing at the state park. We’re looking forward to doing it again.

Perfect vacation stay

Denver and Stephanie were the perfect host. After we messed up our e-mail address they went above and beyond to deal with VRBO to get it straightened out. My wife and I and two grown children had more than enough space. Great outdoor areas to sit and relax. Great boathouse for my 19 foot bass boat. Even sent us a link on how to park our boat trailer in the driveway. This was a bucket list trip for me and this house was perfect in every way.
