About this property

Waterfront Lakehouse, Great Sandy Beach, Boathouse, Decks, 25 min to Auburn Univ

Welcome to paradise! An experience you won't forget... Fully equipped 3 bedroom 2 bath home, fantastic boathouse, and ‘Big Water’ access! Ideally located near restaurants, stores and 25 minutes from Auburn University!
This beauty has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and sleeps 8 guests. Offering a prime location just 25 miles from Auburn and a gorgeous view of Lake Martin. The house is custom decorated in Lake Motif, absolutely stunning! Our home offers incredible views of the lake. Our kitchen is fully stocked. In the dining room is a custom built farm table that comfortably seats 10 guests and the kitchen island seats another two.
All bedrooms are beautifully decorated, and each bedroom includes a flat screen TV! The master bedroom is extremely large with a king bed, walk-in closet and private bathroom. The 2nd bedroom has a queen size bed and sitting area. The 3rd bedroom is decorated Americana style, (we love our USA!) It has two sets of bunkbeds.
If you are looking for the perfect get away for yourself and your family, then look no further! This is an ideal setting nestled in a peaceful slew close to Chimney Rock, Chuck’s Marina and the Big Water of pristine Lake Martin!
Relax lakeside on the dock or in the massive 1600 square feet boathouse watching the family enjoy the lake. With spectacular views of the sunset and sunrise you will find ample space for you and your family to enjoy all Lake Martin has to offer. And there is plenty of lawn chairs and outside furniture. Your kids, including adult kids, won't ever get bored!
The property is situated in a peaceful slew directly on the water. This location makes it a safe and relaxing spot for floating and swimming. Very kid friendly. Great swimming area in a safe non- boat traffic area. Secure your boat and PWC in boathouse or on the dock. There is plenty of room for several boats! This home has everything you need for the ultimate lakeside retreat! Great for families, fishing and hunting excursions, a peaceful retreat, attending Auburn Football or other Auburn events.
FYI: Holiday Cove is a 4-house vacation rental complex on Lake Martin in Dadeville, Alabama. The houses share 2 separate picnic areas with tables, chairs, BBQ grill, sandy beach with massive deck, and fire pits. The houses also share a common boat house that will accommodate 4 full-size boats, a pier where 2 boats can tie-up, a floating dock for 2 more boats and a 25’X30’ covered pavilion with plenty of tables and chairs. The boathouse and pavilion provide 1,600 square feet of covered, shaded space. These 4 houses can sleep 48 people. Perfect for large family gatherings! Each house has lake views and lake access. The property is gorgeous!

Late Summer - Early Fall get away!
It was the perfect weekend to choose! The weather was perfect, we enjoyed sitting on the porch looking out at the lake, it was cool fresh air! Holiday Cove it set up that if you had a large family and needed more than one place, they have 4 homes within walking distance of each other. It’s just a nice and very clean area. My daughter said to me it was one of the most relaxing vacations she’s had in a while! I would recommend this place to anyone needing a much needed get away!!!!

This place has something for everyone. Our group loved spending time at the beach and the boat house. There were plenty of water toys to use. The house was spotless and had plenty of space. Would definitely book a return trip in the future.

Perfect!
We had the best weekend at the lake. The house had everything we needed. We rented the pontoon boat too and it was so fun to use to meet up with other family on other parts of the lake. We plan on going back next year!

Lake Martin/Auburn visit
We booked and stayed over our spring break from Maryland to experience Lake Martin and visit our daughter who is a student at AU! The house and property are exactly as described. The distance to local stores and restaurants were very convenient. Many restaurants by boat and seasonal places are not open yet so that was a bit disappointing but would make another trip in the summer that much more enjoyable! The beds, sheets, towels are very comfortable, communication with the owners was easy and they were available to answer any questions. Beautiful, peaceful and serene. We will definitely be back!

Overall pretty good
Overall the place was great! The house was as listed, nice and clean, while having all the amenities disclosed. The location offered a great view of the water and was peaceful during the morning as the sun came up. We were however a little dismayed to realize most of the outside amenities (firepit, adirondack chairs, hammock, cornhole, etc), were basically all right next to house #4 and not centrally located. This would not normally be a problem I imagine, but it is all dependent upon who are in the other houses. For us, house #4 was visited by about 10-12 'frat age' men and another 6-8 young 20ish occupants in the house above us. We were young once as well and do not begrudge their activities, just didn't necessarily want our kids near drinking, etc. I should mention they were all cordial and respectful, not loud, etc. They did however unintentionally monopolize most of the common areas throughout the day, making it unusable for our younger kids. With all that said, it would be nice to have had additional cornhole or firepits near the other houses so multiple houses could use. I had almost brought our own cornhole board but saw the one listed and decided not to. In conclusion, a great little house with an awesome but maybe just a small caution in that it, due to the close proximity of the other houses on the premises, and considering that some house up to 14 people, it really all depends on who has rented the other houses.

Amazing stay on Lake Martin!
We had a wonderful time staying at Holiday Cove! The house was well equipped, beautifully updated, and right on the lake in a great location. We met the owners and they were just lovely people! They told us about all of the best places to eat on the lake. :) Our kids enjoyed using the kayaks and swimming off the large covered boat dock. The lakefront area is really cool with a beach area and Adirondack chairs to relax in. We would highly recommend Holiday Cove and can’t wait to return for another stay!

Fantastic location for Auburn University visits
Brad and Marian were so fun, responsive and easy to work with. The house was clean and the yard was like a park. Plenty of trees for shade keeping us cool in the heat of the day. We rented the pontoon boat and they had it parked at the dock on our arrival making it super easy to get out on the water. We will definitely be back.

Loved our stay. Can’t wait to return!
The vacation rental was amazing. My wife and I as well as our 3 kids loved the house. Very clean and spacious. The boat rental was the highlight of the trip. The boat had a tube to pull behind and my 8 and 6 year old loved it. Marian and her husband were great host and were very quick to respond to any questions. Check in and out was simple. I absolutely recommend staying her and hopefully we will be back!

The property was exactly as described. The owners take pride in their property and were on site among all their properties, performing landscaping, etc. (in an unobtrusive way) virtually the whole time we were there! (they even lent us a small hand tool we needed for something!) The beds were also comfortable, which is important! Great place to stay!
