Anniversary trip

We wanted a cozy little getaway for our anniversary. It was very cozy and close to the water. Plenty of room for the pups to run and lots of local activities and great places to eat. It was a lovely trip.

Exactly what I needed.

Great location and cabin. It’s close enough to town that everything I needed to do was still convenient but still secluded enough that I didn’t have to worry about running out into the street or bothering anyone. Will def stay again.

Cozy Guntersville cabin on a Horse Ranch - Where the Mountains meet the Lake

This small cabin was beautiful on the inside with good enough A/C and comfortable beds. The parking was great for our truck and bass-boat. The host gave us great advice on nearby boat ramps, restaurants, and fun things to do. We will be back to stay again.

Peaceful

The definition of pastoral. Quaint 1BR cabin nestled in a tree lined valley on a horse farm with a goose-filled pond. If you need some peace and quiet this is a place for you. Oh, and Guntersville Lake is right across the street! Give it a try - Anita, the host is great!

Weekend girls getaway

The cabin was cozy and comfortable for an impromptu trip. The kitchen is compact but we knew that in advance and planned accordingly. We enjoyed the screened porch and the lovely peaceful view across the horse pasture. There is a bedroom, a sleeping nook and a pull- out couch, so we each had our own bed. We had a great time. Thank you!

Cozy Cottage

Pastoral setting. The screen porch and outdoor BBQ area overlooks horses grazing on the same property. Mike checked in on us as we were unpacking and gave us information and offered help if any need arose. For the 2 of us the cottage was the perfect size and had all the boxes checked for a comfortable 2 night stay (that was ours) or longer. We enjoy quiet and less crowds and this was the right place for us.

Tranquil Setting

What a wonderful place to unplug and unwind. We found the cabin clean and neat, but the location was the absolute selling point of this place. To look out the windows and see the pastures with horses, so quiet, and right across the street from the Lake. I enjoyed my morning walks across the street to watch the sun rise, and petting the horses that came the fence as I walked by. However, it's close to everything - we visited Cathedral Caverns, and went ziplining at Guntersville State Park. It's close to great places to eat like Craw-Mamas and Brick Bar and Grill. We would definitely stay here again if visiting Guntersville.

Convenient, peaceful

Short stay due to volleyball tournament but was everything we needed! Very close to the sport courts, quiet, clean and comfy. Walked the property, visited with horses and walked across the street to the lake too. Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy it more. Only minor complaint is to update the cabin window box A/C, as it took until about 5 am to finally get comfortable to need a blanket. Would definitely stay here again!

Peaceful and quiet rustic retreat

Our cabin was clean, comfortable and cozy. Our host left fresh potted flowering plants on the screened in porch. We enjoyed relaxing in the peace and quiet. The view of the sky, pond, horses and barn was nice. The location is the perfect combination of privacy and convenience. We observed a herd of deer, a heron, toads, lizards, song birds and butterfly's around the property. Great spot for nature lovers. The horses were curious and welcoming. Plenty of outdoor seating around the grill. Will definitely visit again. Highly recommend!

Weekend Getaway

We loved our weekend getaway. We had a great time enjoying the property from fishing, petting the horses to seeing deer at night and in the morning. We even enjoyed the frogs in the pond. Only issues was the spiders and the mattress needed to be replaced. But those things still doesn't keep us from wanting to return in the fall. We highly recommend Char Burger for any time of day.

Cabin 20 has so much potential

I wanted to love it here. The property is beautiful, the horses are amazing. The cabin itself was a little bit of a let down. I kept my expectations low as I knew it was going to be on the smaller side. The screens on all windows including porch were old and falling off allowing bugs to continually enter. Because the windows were unable to be opened there was a musty smell in the cabin. This might be solved if there was another air conditioner in the cabin. Preferably in the bedroom as this room was the hottest in the cabin. All could be easily fixed with small updates. Including the mattresses. The mattress in the bedroom and the pull out sofa were unbearable. Also the toilet seat did not fit properly on that model which was a big problem considering I was staying with my 3 small daughters. I appreciated the good hospitality and the extra towels. I feel like I would even revisit again if these small things were fixed.
