About this property

Reel ‘em Inn - Guntersville Lake Waterfront Retreat for the Family and Fisherman

2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom Lakefront Cabin.
5 beds total (1 Queen bed & 4 twin beds).

Welcome to Reel 'em Inn, our home away from home, close to all the things in Guntersville & Scottsboro. Easy 8 mile drive to Goose Pond Colony Resort. The entire 2 story cabin is all yours to enjoy. We have sought out to equip our home to a high standard and to anticipate your needs for a cozy Lake-Front stay. This comfy cabin directly on Guntersville Lake has everything you will need to spend time fishing from the bank, enjoying #LakeLife or just relaxing on the lake-view porch or by the sprawling fire pit . With our hi-speed fiber internet, portable desk table, and cushy chairs, you can also work remote (telecommute) with ease and dependability. The cabin sits only steps away from the waters edge with panoramic views of, and easy access to, the lake via the flat sprawling backyard. Pura Smart Fragrance Diffuser added in September 2025. Remotely managed device emits calming, delicate scents for relaxation. One in living room and one upstairs. If you prefer not to have them in use, simply ignore them or unplug if you wish, but please plug back in at the end of your stay.

Access to the private, gated neighborhood boat ramp and community dock is included! The cabin offers an open 2 car garage with plenty of outlets and lights for your trailers and for keeping your boats ready to hit the water. Your truck and boat (even with PowerPoles) will easily fit in the garage with room to spare. The driveway is also flat, long and spacious to accommodate additional parking.

Some nearby destinations guests ask about and visit are:
- Goose Pond Golf Resort, Marina, Restaurant, Boat Launch (popular Fishing and Tournament location)

- Guntersville State Park
- Cathedral Caverns

Peaceful Getaway on Lake Guntersville

If you want to throw your kayaks right into the lake and do a little fishing, and stay in a charming, clean house with eagles, herons, and ospreys flying overhead this is the place! Downtown Guntersville with some good restaurants isn't far either. The hosts were so very accommodating as well.

Really Happy at Reel ‘Em Inn

We had a very nice and peaceful stay at Reel ‘Em Inn. Our group of 6 enjoyed the comfort and cleanliness of this property. The location was great — right on the lake and in a nice neighborhood. Communication with the owners was quick and polite and all our needs were met and every effort was made for us to enjoy our stay. I recommend this property and look forward to booking it again. Thank you for your hospitality!

Cozy Cabin on the Lake

First I would like to say that the property owners are supper nice and friendly people. They communicated with me very well. My wife and I spent most of our day out visiting all the antique and thrift shops in and around Scottsboro so when didn’t spend a ton of time at the cabin. I can say what time we did spend in the cabin we were really relaxed and cozy.

Fishing Trio

It was a very cute place in a great spot, Close to everything. The air was not working correctly. and was never fixed the whole stay. We were there for 4 days, and before we got there it wasn't working with the previous guest. The yard was not cut, a lot of bees. But owner did communicate after we got there about the air.

Honeymoon on the lake

We decided to come settle in this little cabin for a couple days for our honeymoon. My husband is a bass fisherman so staying right on Lake Guntersville was perfect! We loved relaxing around the fire and exploring the towns around us.

Nice little bungalow on the water. No dock but easy to fish right on the shoreline. Very quiet and peaceful. Visited Cathedral Caverns and Tigers for Tomorrow and enjoyed nice dinner in Guntersville. Our kids loved the bunk room.

Why they chose this property

The pictures, reviews, and location all speak for themselves: The Reel 'em Inn is the getaway destination for our family and we look forward to sharing our little slice of paradise with you.

What makes this property unique

From the wide screened porch to the easy stroll to directly to the edge of the lake, this house had everything in between for us to enjoy with our little family. We love fishing and nature, and right from the start, we were able to spot and catch bass, catfish, bluegill - even huge crawfish from the gorgeous waters of the lake. We put them right back though, so come along, they are ready for you to catch and Reel 'em Inn!
