Amazing Rental
We enjoyed this rental so much. The layout was great, nice quite neighborhood, and not too far from places. The provided amenities were also a huge plus.
This was a great house. It was central to all the stuff we did, and their is a lot to do. The host, Dawn, was easy to get in touch with and very accommodating.

Annual family fishing trip
Definitely one of the best rentals we have used.
Great location. Well maintained and furnished.
The property is beautiful with everything you need at your fingertips. The house is beautifully decorated and comfortable. Fishing was great right from the docks and the boat launch was within view and easy to access. We will definitely return to Fish and Frolic Holiday!
We liked the vibe! Quiet and comfortable with the lake nearby for paddling. All the amenities we needed and Dawn was very responsive. We hope to go back.
Very clean and well kept house on a quiet section of the lake. Plenty of room for 8 (4 kids, 4 adults), great water pressure in the showers, and a great fire pit!
Wanted to get together with family and found this lake house to fit our needs. Owner did great job thinking of everything needed for a nice weekend get away. Great location. We really enjoyed the housefaireplayed cards
The accommodations were great for our three couples—multiple gathering spaces, clean and comfortable bedrooms and baths, kitchen well supplied and clean, nice decks and yard. We loved the fire pit too! Nice house in a quiet neighborhood!
I cannot say enough about how wonderful of a host!! The communication & kindness was truly next level! The house was beautiful, comfortable, & extremely clean. This property & host is definitely where we will continue to book when coming to Lake Guntersville. Thank you to Lydia & Dawn….y’all are truly top notch!!

Wonderful Place to Relax and Fish!!!
Accommodations are really nice and house is very clean. We especially enjoyed the fire pit area (bring bug repellent) and the boat house. Fishing is great at the lake - caught fish every time we went out. This rental is a wonderful place to unwind and relax!
We really enjoyed our stay. The house was amazing and beautiful. Lake was beautiful and the fishing was great. Boat ramp was convenient only 2 drive ways from the house.❤️ the host thought of everything. Thank you
