This is a stunning property tucked away perfectly off the beaten path. Once you arrive, you are greeted by Jerry, the wonderful caretaker who walks you through everything you need to know. I couldn't ask for a better experience or location. I will stay here next time I am in town. This is definitely worth the 9-hour drive we made to get there.

A Pet Mom’s Review

We absolutely loved our stay at this quaint lakeside cottage in Trussville! It was peaceful, beautifully maintained, and had all the cozy touches that made it feel like a home away from home. The lake view was so relaxing, and best of all—it was pet-friendly, which made traveling with our furbabies a breeze. Highly recommend for a quiet getaway or a family trip. We’ll definitely be back!
