Relax & enjoy the river view, 5 min to Huntsville

Smooth As Glass is conveniently located, only a 15 minute drive to downtown Huntsville. Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. Enjoy a relaxing waterfront view of the Tennessee River and experience all that Huntsville has to offer. Across the river launch your boat at Ditto Landing for fishing or water sports. Have coffee on the front deck and watch barges slip up and down the river, you may be lucky enough to see a bald eagle! Cook in the well equipped kitchen or on the grill.

The space
Located just minutes from Ditto Landing with boat launches and beautiful walking/bike trails. You are minutes alway from South Huntsville and within a twenty mile radius that includes Redstone Arsenal, VBC/Propst Arena, Space and Rocket Center, University of Alabama at Huntsville, RTJ Hampton Cove and Monte Sano State park. Truly right in the middle of all of wonderful attractions and restaurants of Huntsville while feeling miles away in quiet, quaint Lacey’s Spring.

Floor to ceiling views of the Tennessee River from the living room of this non-smoking 2 bedroom/1 bath home. The open concept living room, kitchen, and dining room have everything you need to feel right at home. The living room has a queen pull-out sofa bed which is perfect for children. A 65 inch Samsung tv with Roku lets you add your streaming platforms during your stay. The kitchen is well equipped if you choose to cook dinner for you and your family/travel group.

The primary bedroom is decorated with a duck theme and located right off of the living room. Get a great night's rest on the king Serta mattress. There is plenty of closet space to put away your suitcase and make yourself at home. This room has a 40 inch wall mounted Roku tv. The windows have blackout curtains and blinds.

The bathroom includes a separate walk-in shower and a jetted tub. A full sized washer and dryer is located in a large closet in the bathroom area.

The blue bedroom has a comfortable queen bed with a Serta mattress and includes a 32 inch tv with Roku. Don't forget to bring passwords for your streaming platforms! This room also boasts a large window with a view of the river. Watching for barges at night with all their lights is a unique experience, but if you would rather have it dark and cozy there are blinds and blackout curtains for your use.

The backdoor has a doggie door for your furry companion. This pet door leads out to the front deck and the fenced backyard. The front deck has amazing views with dappled sunlight for early morning coffee, blazing sun for laying out midday, and complete shade for late afternoon cocktails.
Make smores and watch the fishermen race back to the marina in the evening. Enjoy the outdoor lights around the firepit/outdoor dining area as you wind down the night.

Memorable Stay!
Booked this amazing property for a fishing tournament my husband and I traveled out from California for. The house was clean, charming and well stocked with everything we needed (toiletries, cooking wear, towels, hair dryer, etc.). Julia and Craig were great hosts, very communicative and made us feel welcome with a handwritten card and some local gifts. Thank you Craig and Julia!

Beautiful home on the river!
This was the perfect location to visit our son and daughter in law in Huntsville. Close to the city, but peaceful and quiet. The owners were wonderful! We loved the cookies!!

Absolutely wonderful!
Our stay at Julia’s home in Laceys Spring was wonderful! The home is beautiful and comfortable, and our hosts did not neglect any details… down to shampoo, lotion, and bubble bath! The home was immaculate, the beds were extremely comfortable, the jetted tub and shower were fabulous, and the kitchen was fully equipped. We enjoyed the peacefulness as we drank our morning coffee on the deck, and the fenced in area was just wonderful for our little pup! It truly felt like a home away from home. We look forward to staying again when we return to Huntsville! Thanks so much!
