This was my 3rd time renting this home over the last 7 years, it never disappoints. It was the perfect place for my family to congregate from near and far. From the immaculate accomodations, to the waterfront location, it was perfect. Even the neighbor's sweet dog joined us on the dock. I'd highly recommend this home for either a family getaway or reunion, the only thing you need to bring is your suitcase.

everything was great during the stay. the house is amazing. it was super clean. i was shocked by how clean everything was. it’s a very nice, well kept house. the access to the water was awesome. the dock and house were great. unfortunately the host tried to give us the runaround 2 days after we left and accuse our group of some activities to try to game us for extra money. i didn’t appreciate that at all. we were respectful of the house, i would’ve appreciated respect in return after we left. lying to try to shake down some extra cash was a little irritating. but the house itself is awesome

Extra moneys were never a topic of conversation! The VRBO reviews all communications. However one house rule is no smoking on the property and there was an outdoor park receptacle for smoking left inside my house with ashes in and around it. I did ask the renter about this. Again the subject of money was never brought up. I have a picture of the receptacle I wish I could post here. We have a no smoking policy for the comfort of our visitors!

We had a wonderful week! Everything was perfect...the home, the view, the fishing, and the neighbors! We really enjoyed the lightning bugs each evening, too! This second visit was just as nice as our first had been! It was also a short hop into town for dining, groceries, and shopping. We most appreciated the quick and easy communication with our hosts.

The lake was a beautiful view and the house was very nice. The house was nicer than the pictures. We were very pleased. The only issue we had was the driveway being so steep. We knew it coming in, but with big trucks it was very hard to see.

it was a beautiful house and very open and comfortable. The owner was very responsive when we had questions. The driveway down to the house took a little getting used to, it's a bit steep. We really enjoyed the house and deck.

Did you receive the email I sent you asking for additional cleaning fees related to extra cleaning required due to pets being brought to AH? There is a no pet clause in the VRBO agreement.

Lots of room!

The house worked well for our family of six. The house was clean. The location was nice for us as we spent time in Scottsboro, Guntersville, Cathedral Caverns plus traveled to Chattanooga and Noccalula Falls. The driveway was steep, but had plenty of room to navigate/park to help load/unload safely with our minivan.

Almost Heaven has been a vacation home for my family for many years. My mother bought this place when my daughters were very young. Now they have families and children of their own. It is our hope that other families can enjoy and make lasting memories as we have for years and continue to today.

Why they chose this property

The view of the lake from the house

What makes this property unique

Private pier leads to water and the house is large and offers plenty of space
