We stayed in Jay’s property for Memorial Day weekend. The entire stay was wonderful (property and lake) and Jay even informed us while we were there that bad weather was moving in. He was a wonderful host and we will definitely try to go back this summer!

Thanksgiving Break
My sister and I enjoyed our stay at Littles. The kitchen was well provisioned for our needs. This is a perfect location for a large group to stay as one bedroom has two sets of double bunk beds. There was an occasional electrical glitch in the master bedroom where the ceiling fan didn't work and the key box was difficult for us to open in the dark after arriving late but these were small things that didn't prevent us from enjoying our stay. Our host was super patient and dealt immediately with any issue that popped up. We look forward to returning and staying here at Littles when we visit family in the Cullman area

There was 4 of us staying here fishing a bass tournament on Smith Lake. It was clean and we had plenty of room. Parking was also good as we had four trucks and boats with us. We would stay again for sure.

Wedding Weekend
Little's on the Lake was a great space for the bride and her bridesmaids to share the night before the wedding. The layout of the house and the furnishings made it a great place for them to enjoy each other's company her final single's night! The space would be great for any group that could work with 2 bedrooms to spend time on beautiful Smith Lake. The house was clean and well maintained. Jay was accommodating allowing us early access so we could get ready for the rehearsal dinner.

Nice Relaxing Stay on The Lake
We had a nice relaxing stay on the lake. The home was clean and the beds were all really comfortable - even the bunk beds. We spent many afternoons on the deck. It is close to some nice restaurants in Cullman and to hiking at Hurricane Creek.
