About this property
"THE CRESCENT" - Lakefront heaven w/ big views, sunset, private cove & hot tub
Welcome to "The Crescent," our heavenly haven on Lake Wedowee! Every aspect of The Crescent has been lovingly curated to cultivate R&R of mind, body, and spirit, making it the perfect escape and place to reconnect with friends, family, and nature. Located in a quiet neighborhood (*no disruptive parties allowed*), this 5-bedroom home boasts a large covered deck with big water views, spectacular sunsets, a 7-person hot tub, and a lakeside gazebo and dock on a private cove!
Enjoy your morning cup of coffee on the large, covered deck overlooking the lake. A gently-sloping path leads to the water, where you can fish from the dock, float in the cove, or venture forth on our paddleboards to explore miles of undeveloped coastline. Read a book, take a nap, or watch the sun set and the moon rise from the queen-size, hanging bed swing in the lakeside "Lunar Lounge." If boating is your thing, rent a pontoon from nearby Wedowee Marina South, or launch your own boat from the neighboring public boat ramp and tie up right at our dock. After a full day of playing on the lake, gather around the 9-foot farm table for cards and board games, then head to the firepit to grill smores. Just steps away beckons the outdoor hot tub with beautiful lake views, where you can submerge and stargaze the night away.
The main level of the home consists of an open family room with a large sectional, 9-foot farm table, kitchen, master bedroom with ensuite bath, and 2 guest bedrooms served by a separate guest bathroom. The family room opens to a 2-story covered deck with a comfortable seating area and amazing views of the lake. In the back den there is another large sectional and 75" smart TV. The basement includes a large seating area and a smart TV, bar/kitchenette with a separate refrigerator, 2 additional guest bedrooms that sleep 6 people each, 1 full guest bathroom, and a washer and dryer. On the lower deck is a patio overlooking the lake, outdoor grill and smoker, and a private, outdoor shower and 7-person hot tub! A paved path to the lake passes a large fire pit and leads to the "Lunar Lounge," where the hanging bed invites you to while the days and the nights away. In front of the Lunar Lounge is a lakefront grassy space, perfect for laying out and playing about. (3) paddleboards are provided for you to explore. The 2-boat slip dock is the perfect place to fish to your heart's content.

Wonderful stay at a beautiful property for our family gathering. We loved the home and lakefront access. The home had everything you could want with an attentive and thoughtful host. We would definitely return!
Such a great family vacation spot.Jumping and floating in the water, paddle boarding, the screened boat house for little ones, the gentle slope to the water, the big kitchen/dining area and just a perfect spot!
So wonderful! This was a family-friendly, super clean, gorgeous scenery stay for our Thanksgiving get-together. Loved our time here at “The Crescent.”

Thank you for choosing to spend your precious family time at our heavenly haven! We are so glad you had a wonderful time and would love to welcome you back!
This place was absolutely perfect for our honeymoon. My husband and I went just the two of us, and it is so much better in person! Gorgeous views, 10/10 host, unforgettable experience. We paddle boarded for the first time (something we would’ve never done without the option here) and have now fallen in love with it. We can’t wait to come back with our kids. It truly is a breathtaking property and worth every dime.
We loved the house and property and mid lake location. Easy access to south marina and some great fishing areas. Owners were great to work with. Will stay again for sure.

Thank you Kenneth! We look forward to having you back!
This was a great house and great host for a large group. It provided various areas for gathering and several options for entertainment. The house was super clean and was perfect for our stay!
We could not have been more pleased with this home!! The location was perfect. We found it very clean with comfortable furniture. We couldn’t believe how many beds there were - plenty of room to spread out. The little hut near the water? Oh my, if it had a bathroom I wouldn’t have left it! The neighborhood felt safe and the kitchen was well appointed.. did I say how pleased we were?
This lake house was perfect for our family. It was absolutely beautiful and the location was amazing. We all had a great time and would love to visit again. I am going to miss that view.

Thank you for the lovely review! You were wonderful guests and we would be honored to welcome you back anytime! The view will be waiting for you :-)
Our family had the best time! The property is beautiful and perfect for relaxing and enjoying the water. I cooked dinner every night and the large table gave us an opportunity to actually sit together, have a meal and talk. Family time. Our host was gracious and available if needed. We hope to come back next summer
We absolutely loved everything about this home. Plenty of space, super clean, two fridges, paddle boards, dock and a gorgeous shaded porch. The tip of the crescent has the best morning view and sunsets. We would love to return. Thanks for a great stay.

Our group of 3 families - grandparents, adult kids and grandchildren - had a wonderful time at The Crescent. We all loved the spacious lake house and especially the Lunar Lounge and paddle boards! Wonderful amenities and location for young and old. We hope to be back often as we have family living on the lake and nearby in AL and GA. Thank you for a great experience!

Thank you for your lovely review! We are delighted you enjoyed your time at The Crescent and would love to have you back anytime!
We had a great time. There are plenty of areas to separate and rnoughnspace for everyone to be together. We had a bunch of teens. Everyone enjoyed the lake and paddle boards. We all enjoyed the stay and will try to stay here again next year if available
This house is incredible for visiting and relaxing. We counted - there are comfortable seats for 36 on seven different seating areas! The house is beautiful and well-maintained and extremely cozy. We will be back!

About the host
Hosted by Kelly Moon Crutchfield
Lover of nature, people, and adventure. Happiest when when riding a plane, train, board, horse, motorcycle, or mechanical bull. I seek and honor the sacred spirit in all things, and delight in life's simplicities and serendipities.
Why they chose this property
20 years ago the seed of a dream was planted in my heart when my parents sold our river cabin in North Alabama. It was tiny, rustic, and teeming with creepy crawlies, but it faced due west across the mile-wide Tennessee River and had spectacular sunsets. When my parents scraped together every dime they could to purchase the lot in the early 1970s, my mother thoughtfully named the property, "riverrun," after the first words in the epic novel, "Finnegan's Wake," by James Joyce.
As an Army brat, "riverrun" was the only consistent home I ever knew, and we would return there every 2-3 years between assignments, for a few weeks at a time. When taking a break from cleaning out spider webs, we would waterski in the early morning, eat BBQ and nap through the long, hot afternoons, and always, at "The Golden Hour," gather on the dock as a family and watch the sun set dramatically across the Tennessee River. My mom, strawberry daquiri in hand, would whisper to me, "Peace is seeing a sunset, and knowing Who to thank."
My heart broke when my parents sold that tiny, west-facing cabin, and at 20 years old and an ocean away from Alabama, I vowed to work my whole life to try to recapture even a piece of that Peace I had felt at "riverrun." 20 years: 1 husband, 2 continents, 3 sons, 4 homes, 5 businesses, and 6 cats later, I found "The Crescent," perched on a hilltop and drenched in a gardenia-scented breeze. I followed the gentle slope down towards the water, and felt at once a sacred Spirit in this place. "Wedowee," I would learn, takes its name from a Creek Indian chief and means "old water" in the Muscogean language. I sensed that "riverrun" had somehow rippled back to me, and after a 20 year search, I knew I had found my Peace.
We are grateful that you, like us, have serendipitously landed upon "The Crescent." We graciously invite you to discover what is so special about our heavenly haven, and pray that you too, find the Peace that you have been seeking.
