Labor Day Vacation
The property was wonderful. Everything was exactly as described. Rooms beautifully appointed. Kitchen fully equipped. Owners certainly thought of every detail. They even stacked the firewood in the firepit and provided the ingredients for smores. Great family vacation!

Great Location and Amenities
Our host, amenities, and accommodations were over the top. I would HIGHLY recommend this rental. We had a group of 14 from adult to 8 years old. The rental is large enough for the kids and adults to enjoy their own space. And let's don't forget the waterfront. We enjoyed floating just off the pier in the backyard. Granted, there are a few steps down to the pier but, from our excursions, that is the norm at Smith Lake. We rented a boat from Cappy's. The whole experience was great.

Perfect Lake Getaway
Group of 12 girl friends had a wonderful time at this beautiful lake house! Our host was a great communicator answering messages very quickly and kindly. The water slide and deck were a hit for our crew. We especially loved the fire pit area, perfect for s’mores! We would come back to this house again and again!

Loved it!
Our group consisted of ages 2-50, and everyone had a blast. From the house itself, to the helpful host, everything was wonderful. Our host went above and beyond to include all sorts of small items that make a huge impact when you’re all settled and don’t want to leave. The house was stocked with coffee, Tide pods, dish detergent, lotion, shampoo/conditioner, toothpaste, etc., because someone always forgets something. The rooms were clean and we had ample space — no one was every cramped here. We did need some additional kitchen items, like a wet measuring cup and a griddle - but overall, this was the best lake house. The split floor plan allowed our kids to have their own space and the adults to have some quiet upstairs. Finally, the slide was a huge HIT! We all went down it multiple times! We would love to come back here!

Most Relaxing Vacation Ever
We so enjoyed our stay at your place, This was the most relaxing time that was much needed. It was the perfect place for our family of 10. Lots of room to do "your own thing" if needed. We really enjoyed the game room and just sitting outside. We have never had such a wonderful host as La Tonya. She went way beyond what was expected. We plan to visit again! Tammy

Wonderful home away from home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We booked October 25th- 29th for our restaurant’s annual business meeting. It was a beautiful well kept home. Much to do at the dock, the fire pit quaint and comfortable. One of the things I loved about it was it was so adequately stocked. It was a huge blessing to have enough toilet paper, hand soap, dish soap, paper towels, garbage bags, and even laundry detergent. Then there were bonus extras such as a treat basket, water bottles, Cokes in the refridge, and a fully stocked coffee bar with the fixins. The communication was quick and honest. I thought it was sweet that LaTonya let us have a little longer time to load up and not to rush to check out. It kept us from being stressed at our departure. This rental felt like home away from home. We have already started discussing our meeting dates to book here for next year. Thank you!

Wedding weekend
Our family had a fabulous weekend celebrating our son’s wedding. The house was clean and homey, a perfect place for us to be together. There was plenty of room and many wonderful touches, from the welcome basket of snacks to the fluffy towels in the fully stocked bathrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals-a great home away from home! We’ll be back!

Family Birthday Trip
The lake house is as wonderful, just as advertised. It is clean , well stocked. We had a family of 8 adults and 4 children and had plenty of room . The owner has put a lot of little things a renter would like - beach towels , wood for fire pit, coffee bar , floats and chairs for boat dock. If you are looking for a rental on Smith Lake definitely consider this one . It is great!!!

Amazing Lake House!!
Our 2 families had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lake home! The owner was fantastic with communication and hospitality! The house is beautiful! The dock was perfect for lounging and hanging out while the kids swam, slid, and jumped from the top deck. The grill and fire pit were excellent for cooking out. Hope to stay here again for our future trips to Smith Lake.

We absolutely loved this home. It was so inviting and felt like our home away from home for the week. Any questions we had for the hosts were answered promptly and always super nice and never seemed annoyed by us asking. We enjoyed all the extras they didn’t have to give but appreciated every special touch. Will definitely be on return list for future!! Thanks for having us!!

We love lake living…..
Very easy to find, close to town for shopping or out to eat. Has great views of the lake, and the house. The house has such a homey welcome feeling. Has everything that you need. You walk in to the home sweet home smells, a welcome basket, and just there is not enough words to say how amazing the house is. The owners are very responsive and easy to get in touch with and also very very accommodating. Has to be my number 1 houses that I have found and rented through VRBO. Amazing.

About the host

Hosted by La Tonya Boike

Host profile image
My husband and I bought this beautiful property with retirement in mind. Until then.....we want to share it with you! We have lived in Cullman all our lives and owning a lake home on beautiful Smith Lake has been a dream for years. We took the plunge in 2022 and spent 7 months remodeling and updating. We hope you enjoy our little piece of paradise as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Convenience played a major part in our choosing this home. Located just under 10 minutes from the interstate and 12 minutes from major shopping and dining, makes our home ideal for that quick get-a-away. With year-round deep water and the coolest dock ever, we believe you will love our home as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

A double-decker dock, water slide, and lots of fun water toys makes this location an adventure. Settle in for some quiet reading after a fun day on either of the 2 decks and watch the sun go down.
