Relaxing as promised
The lake house was just what we needed to reconnect and unwind! We enjoyed paddle boarding, swimming and just sitting on the deck admiring the view! The house had everything we needed as we cooked most meals there. It rained some but we napped while Listening to the rain on the tin roof, watched movies and believe it or not talked with our teenage boys(the best). The area of the house sits on a quiet little encove away from lake traffic providing exactly the location we were hoping for. We had a wonderful stay for our first ever visit to Lake Martin but we will be back!

Great lake getaway
Check in and out was easy. Property has everything needed and was very comfortable. Really enjoyed all the views of the lake and great cove location convenient and close to marinas and sights. We rented flyboard, swam, kayaked, rented a pontoon one day and jetski the next. Great stay with plenty of room. Owners were very nice and responsive to any questions.

Grad Trip
My son (18) loves Lake Martin so when he graduated in May we booked a long weekend trip with some of his friends. We had four 18 year olds, and two 15 year olds with us. We had plenty of space. The big dining table was great for breakfast and dinners and board games late at night. The house was perfect for what we needed, the kids spent as much time in or on the water as possible. The kayaks and stand up paddle board were so convenient for them to just get out on the lake and explore close to the cove we were in. We had enough space to cook dinners in the kitchen, the grill was a great addition for burgers and dogs, and the fire pit was great for s’mores after a long day on the boat we rented. Ben and Brooke were both so friendly and accommodating! We had 1 or 2 very small issues that came up while we were there and they were so attentive and took care of those things immediately! We will definitely be returning guests!

Amazing Home with Amazing Views and Location
I have owned 3 different homes on Lake Martin from 1982-2018 and have rented 10+ different houses on the lake since selling my last home in 2018. This home is completely renovated, adorably decorated, very well accessorized, ideally located and offers extraordinary big water views of the lake. I have not experienced a better value for what you’re paying than this home. I have already rented it again later this summer and I’m sure I will rent it many more times in the future!

Perfect!!
Such a perfect little home with the most gorgeous views! The house is beautifully updated, exceptionally clean, and it’s in a great location. It is well appointed with anything and everything you may need or want. The owners, Ben and Brooke, are great communicators and were a pleasure to rent from. Our little family of 4 had more than enough room in this cozy cabin, and highly recommend to anyone looking to relax and/or have fun!

Awesome stay
Our family of 5 stayed at the property and it was top notch - pictures really don't do it justice. Home was clean and well laid out and the deck and lake views were as good as we have ever had on Lake Martin. Owners were very responsive and helpful and check in and out was a breeze. Look forward to going back again soon. Thanks.

This is a very cute cottage. There were 6 of us staying there. Anything you needed in the kitchen they had. We had use of kayaks and paddle boards. The view there is amazing. We got to meet the owners and they were very nice. We had a great time.
