Just as advertised

This was a lovely setting directly on the lake. The pictures are just as advertised. Not the easiest place to find, but thank God for GPS. My husband and I were very happy with the accommodations. I would have given all 5's but for two weeks before our reservation I tried numerous times and numerous ways to contact the property manager and couldn't get a reply. I had questions I would like to have had answered.

I needed that!

It was a great place to get away and read, work on my next screenplay, and just get away with my wife for our anniversary. We enjoyed sitting by the lake and visiting the surrounding towns and local shops. The Christmas lights in Alexander City were nice, too.

Cozy lake house!

Although older this little lake house was perfect for a 2 night stop over on our way to Gulf Shores! It was very peaceful sitting on the deck and watching the birds and squirrels. Thank you!

Memories at the Red House

We’ve stayed several times now and actually returning in two weeks. Perfect spot on the lake for a vacation. Family friendly and close to restaurants within driving distance or on the water.

Lake Martin Stay

Enjoyed the property for a short 3 day stay. House is very clean and everything is in good working order. Love the view of the lake. Communication with Evolve is good but not the guest contact, who is not responsible to say the least.

We loved it here!

We are local and vacation on Lake Martin every summer, and this is one of our favorite places we’ve ever stayed. The house is cozy and has everything you need, the water access is perfect. We brought our kayak for our teenagers, swam, and fished (caught two blue gill). The grill and picnic area are nice. We had Canadian geese came and swam with us every day we were there. We will definitely stay here again.

Serene

The location and amenities were perfect. It was close to hiking trails and is very quiet. Check in/out was a breeze. My only complaint is that the it has been a while since there was a deep cleaning of the house. The fridge had spilled liquids in it, almost every dish I pulled out had to be rewashed, the shower mat had other people's hair on it. The linens were clean and smelled lovely. In them. I would stay here again.

Red House Lake Martin

Perfect place for a small family to make memories. We’ve stayed multiple times. From fishing from the pier, boat rides, tubing and enjoying those beautiful sunsets!! Kitchen is well equipped to make your meals, beds are comfy and the rustic cabin feel is great. Thank you Summer, our host, you’re the best!!

Relaxing stay on Lake Martin

We spent 10 beautiful days on Lake Martin and hated to leave. The waterfront cabin had almost everything we might need. The remote location was a bit of an issue when we discovered we had no gas for the grill. After 4 days without communication or resolution, we just handled it ourselves. Aside from that, we enjoyed our stay and plan to return to the area next spring.
