Water Retreat , Robert Trent Jones , Wilson Lake view
Take in the stunning views of Wilson Lake at the 6 bedroom 4 bath “cozy cottage”. Although it's
like two separate houses on top of each other (with the second floor containing its own kitchen), this house offers a cozy feel that family members or friends can spend time together but still have adequate space to sleep 12. The cozy cottage has two piers and a wrap around composite deck on the back of the house. It also has a cozy covered porch right off of the kitchen. Boaters, golfers, families and friends can all enjoy the cozy cottage

Was a great location for our annual golf trip. Plenty of room and lots of beds. Great location near the course with excellent view of lake. Would recommend.
Very nice place plenty of room for large groups, our was 6 guys. Comfortable furniture, several gathering spaces with large outdoor deck with part of it covered. Beautiful view of the lake. Will definitely rent again for our golf outings to RTJ The Shoals ( only 5 minutes away).
House was as advertised. Slept 12 grown-ups pretty comfortably. Very close to courses, grocery store, gas station, etc. Owner was responsive. Would definitely stay again.
Just finished a golf trip where 8 guys stayed at this house comfortably. The view out the back of the house was incredible. The house was minutes to the golf course. Clean and welcoming!
We absolutely loved our stay! The house is exactly like the listing shows! The views were spectacular. The house was very clean and comfortable! We fished, swam, went boating, kayaking, paddle boarding, watched fireworks, grilled and jumped off the top dock! We are already planning our stay for next year! Great communication with owner!
Our family loved the property n Brie of the lake…was super close to where the Wedding on the golf course..grocery store was close! It was a chilly weekend so we didn’t get to enjoy as fully as we wanted…but this place is a super place to stay at for a large family or a group of friends for a long getaway weekend, we r looking to rent again in the future👍😎
We rented this wonderful house to stay the week of our son’s wedding. It served us well and having two kitchens made it amazing. I cooked the rehearsal dinner and the HUGE kitchen made it so easy.
My family and thoroughly appreciated celebrating Labor Day weekend at this waterfront property. Checking in was a breeze and Rafi was reachable for any questions or concerns raised.
There were a couple of hiccups during our stay and we communicated our concerns along with recommendations directly during our stay. Chiefly among them was noticeable mold found in some of the bathroom showers and curtains, cobwebs mostly on the porch and decks, and issue with the stove closing and utilizing the dishwasher. It was not necessarily a dealbreaker but these are things the cleaners should be handling before paid guests arrive. Rafi did mention that there is an expected deep clean post-summer though that wasn’t a viable solution during our stay, however.
All in all, we would recommend booking this property especially if you want to be secluded near a golf course on the water or plan to be on the water with family.
I booked this in August for our son’s wedding. We loved this place! You couldn’t ask for a more peaceful, lovely view. We had 11 people overnight and a few more visitors during the day of the wedding who arrived in town early and ate lunch with us. There was plenty of room for us all! Kitchen is well supplied with what I needed for cooking/baking what I had planned. The listing had shown 2 king size beds, and when we arrived, there was only one (perhaps one had been replaced recently), but all the beds were comfortable, so it wasn’t a huge issue for our guests. Seemed like we were using new towels, which was nice. Plenty of parking area. Super close to the RTJ golf course where the wedding was held. I think it took us 8 minutes to get there. It was nice to have all the bedrooms, so people could have their own place when they wanted or needed it. Rained quite a bit of the time we were there, so didn’t get to spend much time outside. Great house - would recommend!

Family Birthday Weekend
Although the view was absolutely amazing the property is in dire need of a deep clean. As others have stated we had to sweep the floors upon arrival and remove the entry mats as they were nasty. The bathroom sink didn't drain properly. The bathrooms had mold/mildew. The towels could use a refresh. There were no wine glasses. The wifi password did not work and Rafi was not helpful with that issue. Unable to watch anything on the TVs in the bedrooms. The lamps in one room did not have any lightbulbs. The remote to turn off the overheard light didn't have any batteries so you could not turn on the fan without the light being on. Some clean outdoor dining furniture and dock chairs would have been nice. The house has so much potential!
This property was very roomy and the view of the river was amazing. All the beds were very comfortable as well. The owner was great at communicating with us when issues came up. The washing machine failed and they brought out a new one right away. If you are allergic to bee's as I am, you may not want to use this rental as they have some kind of bee hive in the back yard and there were bee's everywhere, and I could not go out very much unless it was dark or raining out because of the huge amounts of bee's. The home is roomy but could use a remodel, its outdated. There was a vent missing in the floor by the patio door when we arrived so i had to put a table there so no one would walk over it and possibly break their foot/leg/ankle. Internet service was very strong which was a plus for us as we were on a working vacation, but as far as the cable goes, there is only one cable box in the whole house and that's in the living room so if you wanted to watch tv in the bedrooms, you were stuck streaming what ever you subscribe to at home (Netflix, HBO MAX, etc.) as there were no cable boxes in any of the bedrooms.
Nice Location, Good Size and Layout, Needs A Deep Cleaning and TLC
First the positives; the property is on Lake Wilson with two docks (but no boat ramp). There was plenty of room for our group which consisted of six men all over 60. The property has a beautiful view and we enjoyed being close to Muscle Shoals. We were able to tie our boat to the dock and fished from the dock and on the boat. The kitchen is large and user friendly.
Negatives; the house needs a thorough cleaning inside and out. There is a slight musty odor when you walk in. We found mold/mildew in one of the showers. Several lamps were missing light bulbs. Some cabinet doors and drawers were missing hardware. There were not enough pots and pans in the kitchen and what was there needed replacing. The bathrooms only had small hotel size soap, and not enough of that. We also ran low on toilet paper and had to buy additional. The walk to the docks is steep and the path on the left side could use a rail near the bottom. The patio furniture is mildewed and the deck needs power washing. Finally, some of the light switches and in weird places. We never found a switch that turns on the dining room lights.
My group returned to this home after 3 years. It is a fantastic location for the RTJ golf trail. Plenty of parking, views are exceptional, beds are comfortable and plenty of room for 8-10 men.
Unfortunately we had some issues that we chose to delay addressing due to tight schedule until after we checked out. The house could use some TLC to get it back to the shape it was in a few years back. Overall cleanliness, Slow draining showers, and an HVAC tuneup.
We started off with a couple small things that need to be taken care of, but Rafi was extremely quick and helpful about getting it done. The property is beautiful and had the perfect view. Will definitely return.
