Property was very clean and very good amenities. Very close to the water. Pathway was a little steep (no handrails) for senior citizens that were with us but definitely easier than others we have been too. Great Property overall!
Great house on Smith Lake. Our family had a memorable 5 days. Comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, great grill, kayaks and the floating Lilly pad were a big hit. Too bad my husband wasn’t able to snag a fish despite trying for 4 days! Just wasn’t in the cards, but he enjoyed every minute of it. Highly recommend. I suggest driving during daylight hours.
Our family had an excellent stay at this beautiful lake home! It is very clean, has an amazing view, and was the perfect place for our family to spend Thanksgiving together. We will definitely return!
The Host was easy to work with and easy to contact. We had a wonderful relaxing time by the lake. Wonderful location especially if you have a boat and plan to get in the water. The water was too cold for us (April) but there was a spot to get in the river if you wanted. The house was clean and ample room for 6 adults. Kitchen was stocked well enough although the nonstick pans need to be tossed. We did wish there was an empty cabinet for our dry goods so it didn't clutter up the counter. Biggest issue was the house number wasn't visable from the road, so we weren't sure if we had the right place. We just had to try the lock. We recommend this lake house!
The house was clean and comfortable for our group of 7 plus pups. We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the morning and sunsets from the dock at night. We rented a pontoon for 3 days to explore the lake and were blown away by how gorgeous it was, we will definitely be back!
Labor Day Weekend Lake Trip - long weekend at the lake at one of our favorite properties! This house is always clean, nicely appointed, and owners are awesome. Every day we enjoy the deck, dock, sunsets and sunrises from this house. Our favorite part of Smith lake with incredible views on a quiet neighborhood! We look forward to our next stay!
Great place on a Great Lake! Will definitely be back and couldn’t ask for a better rental!

So glad you had a great time! June is a great month at the lake. The water is warm for swimming and boating!
Jumping off the top of the dock is one of the favorite things to do for younger renters. Sitting on the deck and watching the sun set is a favorite for those not as adventurous! That's where you'll find us!
Excellent, clean, fun, accommodating, and all other superlatives. This house and dock were terrific for all of us to enjoy. Those in our 60s and those who are just nine all immensely enjoyed this stay. The owners are very responsive, the house is clean, the kitchen is well stocked, the fans upstairs are a charming touch and the overall feel is homey.
Been wanting to stay here for a few years now and finally got a reservation that worked for us. The pictures of the place don’t do justice and was an amazing stay. We will be coming back!

Thank you so much for your kind words. We look forward to having you back.
I've stayed here several times and will be back. It's the perfect place for a relaxing trip to the lake. The view is great and the dock is good for swimming, fishing and relaxing. Bruce is a great host as well.

About the host
Hosted by Bruce Gordon
My name is Bruce Gordon and I am happily married to Diane and have two sons, Ethan (19) and Eric (17). I teach finance at the University of North Alabama. We are active at Moulton Baptist Church and can be found on Facebook if you are really bored and want to see photos and things. This is the second home that we have owned on Smith Lake and we totally love our time there. We use the rentals to help make the payments and use the home in between. We invite you to share our getaway at the lake.
Why they chose this property
This property is a great choice for two main reasons. First, it is located on a point lot with a view that can't be beat and second, the house is totally remodeled after being stripped down to the studs and rebuilt. Everything, and I mean everything, is new. We bought the property for the lot and then made the house what we wanted it to be with all the modern conveniences like wi-fi, satellite TV and surround sound. Plus, you'll love the short walk from the deck to the dock!
What makes this property unique
Quiet location with unmatched view, but only minutes away from some great restaurants. Grocery store is only 10 minutes. In 45 minutes you can be in Cullman for more shopping choices, theaters, etc.
