Clean and quiet

Overall, place was very clean and quiet. Easy to get to and secluded, but not far from the highway. Great stopping place on the way to your destination and would definitely stay again.

The property was a “10” as described. It is obvious every detail was thoroughly thought through for comfort, safety and convenience. I would most accurately describe it as Serena and Lily meets Disney. Super comfortable for adults and magical for kids. The “sparkling” tree and treehouse were storybook magic. We will find an excuse to stay here again!

Always a favorite!

This was our third stay and it was amazing as always— the only sad part is it’s gotten so popular, we can’t come as often as we wish we could!! The best VRBO experience is off the highway in Ramer!!

We stopped and stayed and night on the way to Destin. We wished we would have had time to stay another night. The kids loved the pool and the loft area. Comfy beds, so clean, beautiful and the easiest check in and check out. We had everything we needed!

Lovely Cottage Stay

My family and I enjoyed staying at the Cottage! It was decorated beautifully and well stocked. The hosts were very polite and responsive to our requests. We had two small children with us and they enjoyed the tree house, pool, and firepit. Thank you Ken and Deb!

Relaxing Stay

My daughter and I had such a relaxing stay in the clean cute cottage. Everything was perfect and well kept! The back yard area was beautiful, just wished we planned our trip when it was warm enough to enjoy the pool. We will definitely be coming back!! The owners did an excellent job making us feel welcome and comfortable while there as well. FIVE STAR experience for sure and way better than any hotel. Thanks again for the lovely time.

One night stay- THE BEST

My family and I stayed for night as we were passing through. The house is BEAUITFUL. It is one of the cleanest places I have stayed. My 8month old could crawl all over and her hands feet and knees were not dirty. Ken and Deb were very welcoming and great hosts! Their pool is beautiful and perfect for all ages. They had many floats for our family to use, even an infant one. 10/10 would recommend and we hope to stay again if we are ever this way again!

If you are looking for a place to unwind and get away from the busyness of life- this is it! We had a wonderful time. The place was very clean, had everything we needed, and the host extremely responsive. We actually extended our stay by a night because we were having such a wonderful time.

This is a BEAUTIFUL property! Spotless, well appointed, very welcoming, fabulous yard and landscape. Deb and Ken are warm, gracious hosts. This is truly a wonderful find! We recommend a stay here if you are visiting the area. A short drive to Wetumpka, Montgomery and Troy. We will definitely return if in the area.

Amazing!

This property is more than described! Upon arrival, you are welcomed with snacks, a welcome sign, and a few drinks as well as ice in the freezer! The hosts were super friendly and made sure our stay was amazing. While the house is next to the host's home, we truly felt like we were at a private resort! The rest of our family stayed elsewhere and were blown away when they stopped over. The hosts truly thought of everything! If ever going through the area in the future, this location will be our first choice! Thank you!!

About the host

Hosted by Ken Lewis

Host profile image
I'm a retired Air Force Satellite Systems Operator. If you've ever used the Global Positioning System (GPS) then I've served you before. Deb is a retired CEO of the Lewis Family, and previously a small business owner and VP, Sales and Marketing at Asgard Press. Eventually, Deb and I moved home to south Alabama in 2019 from Colorado Springs CO. We love it here. Southern hospitality is alive and well. We have three grown sons: Chris (Sheriff Deputy), Nicholas (Classical Pianist, BM Performance Belmont) and Joshua (Nuclear Physicist PhD candidate, UCI). Chris' wonderful wife Hannah and our two munchkin grandsons Oliver and Desmond. God is so good! So part of our hearts are still in Colorado and now California.

God blessed us with an amazing property and the open door to own and manage a short term rental here. It's a little resort and we love it when guests are amazed. From fine furnishings to manicured landscaping, we're just making it better every day. What we didn't expect is, how blessed we would be from the guests we've had here. There are some amazing people on this VRBO platform. If you have a few minutes, I'd love to share the history of this house and the historic history of Ramer and Pine Level Alabama. While Deb and I live in the Farmhouse across the pool, we can say hi but we will respect your privacy so you'll have a resort style time! If you are considering visiting, please do. You won't be disappointed! Welcome Ken and Deb

Why they chose this property

Awesome place to relax, play and escape for a while!

What makes this property unique

A quiet, amazing, clean, cozy, relaxing, fun, beautiful and memory making venue. It's a special place that I wish I could take credit for creating but some things were His plan. If you know, then you know.
