Affordable Charming Vintage Lake Cottage · Cozy & Welcoming

Please Read Before Booking**

This is a vintage lake cottage, not a modern or newly built home. It has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully styled, but it does show the character and quirks that come with age.

Guests may notice things like:
• uneven floors or surfaces
• creaky boards
• a unique, non-symmetrical layout
• older construction details that reflect the home’s history

These features are part of the cottage’s charm and are typical of homes from this era. If you’re looking for sleek finishes, perfect lines, or hotel-style accommodations, this may not be the best fit — and we want you to find a place you’ll truly enjoy.

If, however, you appreciate warmth, comfort, and a home that feels lived-in and welcoming, many guests find this cottage to be a peaceful and memorable retreat.

Time with God

It's a very relaxing setting surrounded by nature. The home itself is very comfortable and the owners are all about sharing the life rather your there for the night or the week. We stayed 5 nights and will be back again.

Great comfortable, home like feel right on the water!

I've stayed here many times because it is my favorite place! Clean, affordable, very comfortable space with lake access. So perfect for a family or just a get away place to fish. Thank you Amy for doing a great job! We will be staying again in the fall for the frog bite on the lake.

We were in the area for a wedding but found so much around the area to do. We only wish that we were able to enjoy the lake and peaceful quiet of the neighborhood. Our fur babies truly enjoyed the weather and explore around the lake. Would 100% return!

Fish Camp

Property description is accurate. Coffee pot needs to be replaced. The heat used on the property is ventless gas wall heaters so if you don’t know how to ignite it I would suggest posting instructions on the property. Other than that this is great place to stay for a fishing trip! Secluded and nice and quiet.

Cool Thanksgiving Trip

My family moved from Minnesota to Florida in 2021. We missed the cool crisp air, fall colors and all the beautiful experiences of the Midwest in the fall. We chose Alabama because mother nature isn't as abusive there in November but we got a taste of back home. Beautiful sunrise and set. Woods to roam, bonfires with great conversations and smores for the littles as we all reflected on the beauty and experience of each day. Communication from Amy was immediate and always helpful. You can tell she put so much energy in decorating and making this cabin feel like a home away from home. We will be back!

Good value and met our key issue

Key to us selecting this property was a pet friendly neighborhood with lots of options to walk and exercise our dogs. This location was exceptional for that. It borders TVA property with miles of open access with many locations we had to ourselves. The people of Raccoon Creek are very friendly, fun, welcoming and helpful. Most have dogs that are friendly. Being close to the boat ramp with access to the entire Tennessee River and lake Guntersville is a real plus. The house was comfortable, spacious, safe, and stocked with needed items. The area had lots of things to do within a reasonable distance for the person who wants to get out and explore. Restaurants and grocery stores are close by as is ACE hardware and Tractor Supply. Our favorite restaurants are 50 Taters in Scottsboro, Tates BBQ in Scottsboro. Mud Creek BBQ in Hollywood. Paynes in Scottsboro. Hollywood Pizza in Stevenson has excellent pizza but service is poor so call-in and take out your order. Dogwood Golf Course is 20 minutes away and a nice track. Goose Pond in Scottsboro has two courses which are fun to play but more expensive. Amy, the owner is very welcoming, responsive, and caring.

Oh well

We never actually made it to Alabama as we got really sick over Christmas, so the host got a really nice bonus and super clean renters, lol. I did have to add a day before we got sick and the host was very helpful then but did not speak to me after I told her we could not make it. Oh well, life happens.
