Amazing Log Cabin on the Water!

A short drive from Birmingham, you will feel like you’re a world away as you meander along a quiet road with picturesque views of the countryside. You’ll be welcomed inside this beautiful rustic Adirondack style log cabin by the aroma of knotty pine into a huge kitchen and dining room where you can enjoy a family breakfast next to a real wood fireplace with wide views of the lake.

Take a moment to catch your breath before stepping into the Great Room. Here you can read a book while watching the boats go by on the comfortable leather sofa, enjoy a glass of wine by the floor to ceiling rock fireplace, watch TV with the whole family, or just sit and enjoy the details of this exquisitely decorated room with pine wood beams stretched across the soaring ceilings.

You’ll be drawn up to the loft where you will find an open area with bonus daybed and office area with wireless internet connection and a private full-size bedroom with views of the Great Room and Smith Lake. Just off the Great Room, a hand-crafted King Bed with a mural of the Lake and beautiful armoire make up the master suite. The master bath features a claw foot tub and an incredible custom stone and slate shower large enough for two.

Wake up to awesome views of the lake from the second King suite with adjoining bathroom. The 3rd ground floor bedroom features a King bed and 3rd bath. The 2nd floor offers a bedroom with a full size bed and sleeping loft with twin beds. With all the beauty inside, you tend to forget the main reason you came here but eventually you will find yourself on the back covered porch looking out over a large deck with table for outdoor dinning and outdoor wood burning fireplace. The amazingly clear and deep waters of the main body of Rock Creek.

A large fenced in yard allows Mom and Dad the opportunity relax on the porch swing and watch the kids and puppies play. When you’re ready to go down to the lake, a gentle walk leads you to the boat dock with swim pier and double jet-ski lifts. You’ll definitely want to take advantage of the large stainless gas grill enjoy your meal in the lakeside gazebo with picnic table and double glider. The house also has a state or the art security system with external cameras. With all these extraordinary amenities and accommodations for up to 10 people, you’ll want to come every season to Cody’s Cabin.

Fall Break
My Family and 2 dogs had a wonderful stay in October. The weather was perfect and the cabin was very nice. We spent most of our time out on the porch sitting on the swing or by the fire. The kitchen was great for meals and had all we needed. We hope to return soon.

Family memories.
Great place for the family. Swimming and fishing right in the backyard. Short walk to the dock. Bedrooms were arranged perfectly for our family. 3 bathrooms a definite plus. Cell service a little spotty but that just forces families to spend time enjoying each other instead of being on their phones.

Beautiful getaway, perfect for families!
This cabin was everything we were looking for in an extended weekend vacation. The home is simply breathtaking, and the lake views are gorgeous. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and bathrooms, and the layout of the property is ideal for multiple couples. Our group never felt crowded or in each other's way, and the privacy was really nice. The guys enjoyed fishing right off the shoreline, and the rest of enjoyed the mild weather in the shade of the gazebo. We're looking forward to going back to Cody's Cabin again!

The best parts of the rental is its easy access to the lake (very few steps) and our dogs were allowed. Would rent this property again based on this experience.

Fabulous lake stay!
This is our 5th time renting this house with our whole family (ages 8 - 77) and we love it more and more every year! There's plenty of room for everyone, the kitchen is so well stocked and large enough to feed the whole crew, and the view of the lake is perfect. We can't wait to come back next year.
