About this property

Beautiful, new house on Lake Guntersville!

Sail, fish, ski or do nothing but relax on "The Cottage's" spacious deck overlooking Lake Guntersville. The Cottage is located at North Alabama Sailing Marina and is new throughout the two bedroom two bath 1200 square foot home. Large picture windows offer a million dollar view of the lake.
Bring your own boat, sail or motor, and launch from our private ramp and have parking for the vehicle and trailer adjacent to the Cottage. Slip space is provided throughout your stay. Walk out in the morning with a cup of coffee and get on your boat ready for the day. A charcoal grill and lakeside fire pit are provided for evening entertaining. Enjoy downtown Guntersville antique shopping, local music and casual dining within a short three mile drive or enjoy a day reading on the deck overlooking Lake Guntersville.
The house has all the amenities of home. It comes with a large front loading washer and dryer, and the kitchen has a full size electric stove, microwave and refrigerator. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, cookware, utensils, and all the essentials to prepare a meal. The dining room has seating for six.
Gather in the large living room and sink in the comfy leather sofa and enjoy the view of beautiful Lake Guntersville. Watch movies on the large flat screen TV or venture out on the deck for dinner and drinks and while away the evening.
There are two spacious bedrooms. The master has a beautiful antique king bed and in-suite bath. The second bedroom has single twin and twin bunk beds with an adjacent full bath.
The Cottage comfortably accommodates five guests.
Linens for the bath and bedrooms are provided.
Groceries, restaurants, gas and bait are available within a mile. "Fire by the Lake" restaurant and bar is within walking distance and "Char Burger", a local favorite, is within a quarter of a mile.
Once you get here you won't want to leave!

The Cottage at Lake Guntersville

We have stayed here multiple times over the past few years and it is our favorite home away from home. The location is great, the cottage is always clean and so well appointed. The bed is comfy and I love cooking in the kitchen. You can walk to Fire By the Lake for dinner and the food is amazing. My husband loves being able to launch the boat right there at the cottage. We’ll keep coming back as long as it’s available. The owners are also awesome at communicating, and we have never had any issues with anything.

Always great at The Cottage!!

We absolutely LOVE The Cottage. We stay here at least once a year and it is the only place we go that I’m sad to leave. I love my own home and this is as close as you could get. The Cottage is cozy, clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The view is beautiful! My husband loves being able to launch the boat at the marina and we also love Fire on the Lake. Will be coming back soon and we highly recommend. 10/10

Fishing tournament

Great place to stay for a fishing tournament. WIFI was not working but wasn’t a big deal because I used my phone to stream to the tv. I didn’t utilize the slip because I wasn’t sure where it was exactly so detailed description on that would be helpful. I’ll be back if I fish the tournament again next year.

Great Lakefront Cabin!

My brothers and I hadn't seen each other in years, so we booked this cabin to spend a couple days away from spouses, children, etc. We had a great time catching up and this cabin was the perfect place. The cabin hosts (Susan and T) were very kind and very responsive when we reached out with a question/minor issue. I would definitely rent this cabin again in a heartbeat!

Wonderful little lake house located in a ver convenient location. 5 minutes to 2 boat ramps down river or just a quick 15 minute drive to waterfront. Less than 10 minutes to City Harbor. Clean, plenty of space, and located right in the water. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Susan and T Wilson

Host profile image
A group of sailors purchased the North Alabama Sailing Marina to ensure this beautiful sailing water would be available for many years to sailors throughout the region. My husband and I are part of the owners group. We came to the local area 15 years ago from Honolulu with three children who love the water and needed to be near the water. We sailed in Hawaii and I earned my US Sailing instructor's certificate while there. I am a registered US Coast Guard Captain and avid sailor who likes to race sailboats. Since sailing at Lake Guntersville we have become fast friends with several other sailors who love the area and wanted to ensure the marina was going to be available for the community to use and we bought it in January of 2016.

The Sailors Group (TSG) has eight active family partners and we own 25 sailboats! We all love to sail and enjoy the water. With a labor of love we renovated the 2 bedroom 2 bathroom "Cottage" so that others could visit Guntersville and enjoy the same great lake we play on.

Some of the partners are around the marina most of the time and can give you information of where to eat, pick up groceries or when you might be able to hear live music in downtown Guntersville.

Susan and T Wilson purchased this Cabin in 2016

Why they chose this property

There is nothing like a fresh cup of coffee in the morning looking out over the lake. The best lake access is right out your door...a launch ramp and ample parking are provided and at the end of the day you can walk next door to "Fire by the Lake" and enjoy a meal, something to drink and often live music out on their dock.

What makes this property unique

A launch ramp on site, trailer parking, and a boat slip are included in your stay.
