Beautiful, new house on Lake Guntersville!

Sail, fish, ski or do nothing but relax on "The Cottage's" spacious deck overlooking Lake Guntersville. The Cottage is located at North Alabama Sailing Marina and is new throughout the two bedroom two bath 1200 square foot home. Large picture windows offer a million dollar view of the lake.
Bring your own boat, sail or motor, and launch from our private ramp and have parking for the vehicle and trailer adjacent to the Cottage. Slip space is provided throughout your stay. Walk out in the morning with a cup of coffee and get on your boat ready for the day. A charcoal grill and lakeside fire pit are provided for evening entertaining. Enjoy downtown Guntersville antique shopping, local music and casual dining within a short three mile drive or enjoy a day reading on the deck overlooking Lake Guntersville.
The house has all the amenities of home. It comes with a large front loading washer and dryer, and the kitchen has a full size electric stove, microwave and refrigerator. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, cookware, utensils, and all the essentials to prepare a meal. The dining room has seating for six.
Gather in the large living room and sink in the comfy leather sofa and enjoy the view of beautiful Lake Guntersville. Watch movies on the large flat screen TV or venture out on the deck for dinner and drinks and while away the evening.
There are two spacious bedrooms. The master has a beautiful antique king bed and in-suite bath. The second bedroom has single twin and twin bunk beds with an adjacent full bath.
The Cottage comfortably accommodates five guests.
Linens for the bath and bedrooms are provided.

Great Cottage in Guntersville

We were in Guntersville for the 90th birthday celebration for my dad and just loved the cottage. Owners were friendly and easy to work with. Most family stayed in a nearby hotel, but we did serve two meals to family at the cottage. Everyone enjoyed the cottage, and I will definitely stay here again in the future!

Great little getaway in a great location!

Wonderful little lake house located in a ver convenient location. 5 minutes to 2 boat ramps down river or just a quick 15 minute drive to waterfront. Less than 10 minutes to City Harbor. Clean, plenty of space, and located right in the water. We will be back!

Always great at The Cottage!!

We absolutely LOVE The Cottage. We stay here at least once a year and it is the only place we go that I’m sad to leave. I love my own home and this is as close as you could get. The Cottage is cozy, clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The view is beautiful! My husband loves being able to launch the boat at the marina and we also love Fire on the Lake. Will be coming back soon and we highly recommend. 10/10

Fishing tournament

Great place to stay for a fishing tournament. WIFI was not working but wasn’t a big deal because I used my phone to stream to the tv. I didn’t utilize the slip because I wasn’t sure where it was exactly so detailed description on that would be helpful. I’ll be back if I fish the tournament again next year.

Father’s Day Fishing Getaway

This is a beautiful cottage. The bed is so comfy. The cottage is clean and has everything you need. The kitchen is well-appointed. You’re close to G’ville restaurants and shops. My husband loved being able to put the boat in right by the cottage. We both loved being able to walk to dinner to Fire by the Lake. I would definitely recommend this place and we will be back.

Great cottage by the lake

Cute cottage located in the sailboat marina. Very clean,& properly stocked. Right on the lake. Boat ramp access & slip for boat. The hosts were very responsive & went out of their way to make us comfortable. We enjoyed our week at the cottage. The decor is what is pictures and we had no issues with the cottage. Located near a couple restaurants & stores that were in walking distance.

Winter Getaway

I took my elderly parents on a last minute getaway. The cabin was perfect for “not so mobile” folks as they had a stunning view of the lake and sailboats. Cabin is cute, comfy and the location is very convenient to everything. Hosts are very responsive. ☺️ We definitely want to come back with a couple of best friends… and hubs says that next time “we get the master suite: NOT the bunk beds” 😆 Thank you Susan and T - is was the perfect respite that my family needed!

We were very pleased with this rental. Everything was cleaned and well stocked. The home was quiet, even though there are neighbors. Location had quick access to everything we needed. We appreciated the smoke free, pet free home and the king size bed! Only two little recommendations: 1. Have an instruction sheet in the home for operating both TVs. (we never did get the one in the bedroom to work) 2. Ditch the little round soaps! It was a nice offering, but the texture is strange and they will NOT lather. We went to the store and bought soap. Thanks for the visit! We would happily choose your rental again!

Cute and Fully Stocked

This property looked exactly as pictured . It was well stocked with toiletries, kitchen utensils, and etc. the only issue was there was an old musty smell that wouldn’t go away and multiple spider webs with spiders in the front and back door and also a few spiders within the house. I did message the hosts about it which they responded that they would have an exterminator come out.

We loved the house! It was perfectly located for our baseball tournament. It was very well equipped with everything we needed! My son loved being able to go fishing off the dock. We also enjoyed the swing on the dock in the shade with the nice breeze. It was a perfect getaway!

The Cottage at Lake Guntersville

We have stayed here multiple times over the past few years and it is our favorite home away from home. The location is great, the cottage is always clean and so well appointed. The bed is comfy and I love cooking in the kitchen. You can walk to Fire By the Lake for dinner and the food is amazing. My husband loves being able to launch the boat right there at the cottage. We’ll keep coming back as long as it’s available. The owners are also awesome at communicating, and we have never had any issues with anything.
