About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Private Boat Ramp, Dock, Pet Friendly, Screen Porch, Firepit, Fish, Kayak, Relax

Slice of Lake Life - My happy place! Relax on the huge screened porch steps away from Lake Martin. Quiet Sandy Creek area has the perfect balance of activity vs privacy. Ski/tube or fish right outside. The yard is flat and grassy, perfect for kicking the ball or laying out. Sit and talk around the fire pit in the evenings. Inside, entertain yourselves with various board games, books and puzzles.

House has a private boat ramp and dock. Please be aware that the lake water level is controlled by Alabama Power and in the winter depending on what they do as well as the amount of rain received you may need to use the public launch. The water level is typically lowered gradually starting in September and is raised gradually starting in March. Please check LakeMartin.com/Level.asp to see the estimated level for your visit. We recommend the level to be 488 MSL to comfortably use the launch. At this level the floating dock will be approximately 4.5 feet deep at the front of the slip and 5.5 feet deep at the back. At 487 MSL you can still use the floating dock, but will likely need to use the public launch at the end of Youngs Ferry Rd.

There is plenty of parking with a long driveway, parking area, as well as the boat launch.

For outdoor fun we have various floats for swimming, a four person pedal boat, and kayaks for the adventurous. In the shed there are outdoor games. If you bring a pet, there is a solid tie down set up if needed.

Four bedroom, two and a half bath home with a sleeper sofa in den easily sleeps 10. Great room with living and dining areas has a window wall overlooking the lake. Fully equipped kitchen and laundry room. Eat inside or outside under ceiling fans on the screened in porch. All rooms have ceiling fans. In the king room closet is a pack-n-play (no crib bedding is provided) and high chair.

There are Smart TVs in the Living Room, both bedrooms with king beds, and the bedroom with the queen/trundle. All have access to your personal Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu etc. accounts.

The neighborhood as friendly dogs off leash, so don't be surprised if you have a welcoming party.

House has exterior cameras primarily for safety when the home is unoccupied.

My family had a fantastic time at this property! It has more available supplies than an average vacation rental, very comfortably furnished, beautiful well maintained deck and very responsive helpful owners. We have stayed at multiple homes on lake Martin and this was by far our favorite. We will be back!

Great property on the water. The decking on the water with the covered seating area was perfect for us and our kids to fish. We loved sitting around the fire pit. Kayaks were a lot of fun! The rooms were spacious, the kitchen very well appointed, and the bathrooms very clean. It went from high 70s to high 30s on our third day. The games and cards and books meant that the kids were never bored. Due to strong storms, the power was out for about 9 hours. Owners offered to refund us the last two days of our trip. We ultimately decided to stay, but greatly appreciated the offer. Superb communication and wonderful property!

The property was ideal for our family. The convenience of having a boat ramp made a big impact on the ease of the vacation. The outdoor space was our favorite part and perfect for our boys! No one wanted to leave.As a host, Pam was easy to work with and very quick to respond. We had a few hiccups once we arrived but she was attentive and wanted to make sure we enjoyed our stay. The cleanliness rating was shared with Pam during the stay and she was grateful for the feedback as she just changed services.

Perfect house for our family

So many rentals on the lake do not allow dogs so we are limited to those properties. This was perfect in that it is a nice level lot to the lake with a launch which suited our purposes double fold. The ability to launch our boat there and also shallow enough for our dog to play. House had everything we needed for cooking. Definitely will stay again!

Lovely lake house getaway

We had a very nice stay at the house. Everything is well maintained and comfortable. The beds are nice so everyone was able to sleep well. The kitchen is nicely supplied with a few spices! The view is amazing. Our dogs had the best time swimming right off the back yard. The back porch was our favorite. We spent lots of time outside even using the firepit in the evenings. Highly recommend the property. We hope to come back in the summer!

Lakeview stay

The property was very nice. The host was patient and helpful. However, the neighbor dogs were very intimidating, I traveled with my grandparents and a toddler , having large barking dogs roaming around made it hard to enjoy the outside. Also as a pet friendly facility the house was of fur!!! The rugs, the blankets and couch cushions were full of white dog hair. Our clothes were covered and it was hard not to track the fur to the bedrooms and our cars. I did let the host know this was a bigger issue for us. Over I believe this place would be a nice place to visit in the summer with your family and pets

Relaxing and Quiet Stay

Enjoyed a quiet and chilled trip with a couple of family members and my dog! We stayed put once we got to the lake house with only a couple of trips to the grocery. There are plenty of outdoor spaces for enjoying the water views, and my dog had a ball with all the swimming and fetching! Pam is an excellent host and quick to respond! The neighbor’s dog greeted us and would stop by on occasion to make sure all was okay!😁 Would definitely come back to this rental property!

Our stay was great, the house was nice, great location, kayaks a huge plus, and it was nice they had normal condiments, oil, etc. Other places don’t provide the basics which is frustrating but they had it all.

Family reunion and football

We loved the property inside and out. The location was near many restaurants and other attractions! A short trip to Auburn for a football game was the icing on the cake for our extended weekend! Finally, our host Pam went above and beyond in her care and attention to our family! We would definitely like to return here for another family reunion!
