Donna Lee's Cottage-For Anglers & Events : Covered Bass Boat Parking + Fiber
Bremen Cottage: Covered Bass Boat Parking + Fiber Internet
Welcome to our charming Bremen Cottage—a peaceful retreat just minutes from Smith Lake Park without the waterfront price tag. Once my wife’s grandmother’s home, it’s now lovingly remodeled to blend family history with modern comfort.
Comfort for Groups
2 bedrooms + daybed room + sleeper sofa = space for up to 7
Plush living room with 65" Roku TV, plus additional TVs in bedrooms and den
Fiber internet (300+ Mbps) for streaming, work, or tournament prep
Fully Equipped Kitchen
Cook, host, or reheat tournament leftovers with full-size fridge, stove, dishwasher, and stocked cookware. Other items might be available upon request.
Perfect for Fishermen & Events
Covered parking for one + gravel parking for more (great for boats/trailers). Our covered area is only big enough to accommodate one bass boat. Larger boats will not fit due to height restrictions. More covered parking in a shop nearby could be available at request.
Outdoor plugs for gear and easy turnaround
Quick access to Smith Lake Park, Smith Lake Dam, Stone Bridge Farms weddings, Wallace State events, and Cullman’s Ag Trade Center, Stoney Lonesome, and a lot more!
Pets Possibly Allowed Upon Request
We definitely understand how pets can become four-legged family members. Because of some renters misusing the property, this location is not "pet friendly" automatically / all the time. If you have to have pet-friendly accommodations, let us know.
Private & Relaxing
The home sits on 3 acres with room to roam. We live nearby but tucked back in the woods—available if you need us, invisible if you don’t.
Bremen Basecamp
We’ve kept this a short-term rental to make each stay special. Whether you’re here for a fishing tournament, a wedding, a school event, Stoney Lonesome OVH, or just a peaceful getaway, Bremen Cottage is ready to be your basecamp.
Video tour and floor plan are included in the listing.

About the host
Hosted by Matt and Abby Lee

My wife Abby and I have deep roots in North Alabama, the area we've always called home. We tied the knot in 2018 and settled down right beside the serene Smith Lake. I attended Birmingham-Southern College and Auburn University, where I finished with a dual-degree in Bachelors of Science and Industrial Engineering respectfully. I alway had a dream of being able to fish professionally. This dream turned into a thrilling career, and I've been fishing professionally for nine years now, exploring various corners of the country.
Abby, initially a dedicated nurse, chose to join me on my travels in 2018, embracing the adventure of life on the road. Her entrepreneurial spirit shone through in 2020 when she founded Lake Home Solutions, a concierge service specializing in the Smith Lake area. Her business primarily focuses on maintaining and managing short-term rentals, ensuring they are in pristine condition.
This experience directly translates into the care we put into our own rental property. We understand the nuances of creating a welcoming and well-maintained space, ensuring that our property will be in impeccable condition for your stay. We're excited to share a piece of our world with you and are committed to making your experience at Smith Lake truly memorable.
