5/5 The best years of my life was visiting family in this area and spending time on the lake with my dad. This was the perfect place to relive those memories with family.

Perfect for a relaxing getaway!
5/5 We stayed for a week while our child attended Space Camp and had a wonderful, relaxing week. The house has beautiful views with plenty of places to enjoy, including a screened in porch and outside deck. The house was impeccably clean, kitchen was well-appointed and the communication with the host was excellent.

5/5 I cannot say enough about our experience at 5354 Bay Shore Drive, Athens, Alabama. From the time we arrived at the lake house until we departed, everything was great. The location was perfect as it was close enough to the stores and yet isolated enough (directly on the Lake) from all the hustle and bustle of the traffic. The cleanliness of the home was excellent. Everything from the furniture to the appliances was modern. The 3 bedrooms with 3.5 bathrooms were large and spacious with sleeping space for our group. The bathrooms were equipped with clean towels, soap, shampoo, and there were extra towels in the laundry room that were equipped with a washer and dryer. The kitchen was equipped with glassware, dishware, pots, pans, and a cabinet of spices. From the cozy blankets to a fully stocked kitchen, every detail was considered with care. The large windows (especially in the dining area) offered breathtaking views, and the outdoor deck was the ultimate place to relax, whether you are grilling or stargazing. Waking up to the sounds of the lake and sipping coffee while watching the sunrise over the water was spectacular. I would recommend this location to others. The group wants to revisit next year!
