Private Boat Ramp, Pet Friendly, Screen Porch, Fire Pit, Fish, Kayak, Relax

Slice of Lake Life - My happy place! Relax on the huge screened porch steps away from Lake Martin. Quiet Sandy Creek area has the perfect balance of activity vs privacy. Ski/tube or fish right outside. The yard is flat and grassy, perfect for kicking the ball or laying out. Sit and talk around the fire pit in the evenings. Inside, entertain yourselves with various board games, books and puzzles.

House has a private boat ramp and dock. Please be aware that the lake water level is controlled by Alabama Power and in the winter depending on what they do as well as the amount of rain received you may need to use the public launch. The water level is typically lowered gradually starting in September and is raised gradually starting in March. Please check LakeMartin.com/Level.asp to see the estimated level for your visit. We recommend the level to be 488 MSL to comfortably use the launch. At this level the floating dock will be approximately 4.5 feet deep at the front of the slip and 5.5 feet deep at the back. At 487 MSL you can still use the floating dock, but will likely need to use the public launch at the end of Youngs Ferry Rd.

There is plenty of parking with a long driveway, parking area, as well as the boat launch.

For outdoor fun we have various floats for swimming, a four person pedal boat, and two kayaks for the adventurous. In the laundry room there are outdoor games - horseshoes, ladder toss, etc. If you bring a pet, there is a solid tie down set up if needed.

Four bedroom, two bath home with a sleeper sofa in den easily sleeps 10. Great room with living and dining areas has a window wall overlooking the lake. Fully equipped kitchen and laundry room. Eat inside or outside under ceiling fans on the screened in porch. All rooms have ceiling fans. In the king room closet is a pack-n-play (no crib bedding is provided). The highchair is in the garage.

There are Smart TVs in the Living Room and both bedrooms with king beds with access to your personal Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu etc. accounts.

The neighborhood as friendly dogs off leash, so don't be surprised if you have a welcoming party.

House has exterior cameras primarily for safety when the home is unoccupied.

Great house and amazing location
The house was spacious for the 8 of us staying there. The front yard was great for yard games and the screened-in porch was perfect for hanging out in the evenings. A huge bonus was having our own boat ramp on property.

Great getaway!
We loved this house - perfect for our family and a few friends. House was clean and had everything we needed. One-story house was great for older parents (there are stairs down off the back deck). Prior guests had left water toys out so they needed a little TLC, but otherwise we had a wonderful time and will stay again for sure!

Family Weekend
Our second annual Lake Martin family weekend was another great success. The house and its location are perfect for the 6 of us to meet and enjoy some time together. The owner has everything you need and it is only an added bonus that our fur babies get to go with us. They love swimming in the lake. Before the weekend was over we began to plan our next trip to this wonderful place.

Great Lake Martin Vacation
One of the best properties at Lake Martin. The kayak and paddle boat were really a great addition to a already very nice and cozy house. The back screened porch was very relaxing and the view of the lake was awesome. Very nice hostess, she communicated quickly and answered all our questions in very friendly way. The deck sitting area was also a nice touch. Even with the rain it was still a great weekend vacation here.

Didn’t want to leave
Wonderful house. The yards were filled with beautifully filled with blooming flowers. Then the view from the screened porch was what you go on vacation for, relaxing. The morning were my favorite. The sunrise on the docks just sitting and giving thanks. The owner was easy to communicate with. She gave some helpful hints about the area. Would love to go back . This was just what I needed.
