About this property

Lake Martin Cutie. Sandy beach, kayaks, boathouse, decks, firepits,

Welcome to paradise! An experience you won't forget...
Fully equipped 3 bedroom 2 bath home, fantastic boathouse, deck area with fire pit and ‘Big Water’ access! Ideally located near restaurants, stores.
This serene lake house has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and sleeps 8 guests. Offering a prime location just 25 minutes from Auburn University. The house is custom decorated in Lake Motif, absolutely stunning! Our home offers a huge living area with an enormous 75 inch flat screen TV. Our fully stocked kitchen includes all necessities, a traditional coffeemaker and a wine bar with plenty of wine glasses.
All bedrooms are beautifully decorated, and each bedroom includes a flat screen TV! If you are looking for the perfect getaway for yourself and your family, then look no further! This is an ideal setting nestled in a private slough close to Chimney Rock, Chuck’s Marina and the Big Water of pristine Lake Martin!
Relax lakeside on the dock, in the boathouse or on the new deck watching the family enjoy the lake. With spectacular views of the sunset and sunrise you will find ample space for you and your family. Your kids, including adult kids, won't ever get bored!
Very kid friendly. Great swimming area in a safe non- boat traffic area. Secure your boat and PWC in boathouse or on the dock. This home has everything you need for the ultimate lakeside retreat! Great for families, fishing and hunting excursions, a peaceful retreat, attending Auburn Football or other Auburn events.
FYI: Holiday Cove is a 4-house vacation rental complex on Lake Martin in Dadeville, Alabama. The houses share 2 separate picnic areas with tables, chairs, BBQ grills, and fire pits. The houses also share a large boat house that will accommodate 4 full-size boats, a pier where 2 boats can tie-up, a floating dock for 2 more boats and a 25’X30’ covered pavilion with plenty of tables and chairs. The boathouse and pavilion provide 1,600 square feet of covered, shaded space. We recently completed another huge deck next to the sandy beach with another fire pit!
These 4 houses can sleep 48 people. Perfect for large family gatherings! Each house has lake views and lake access. The property is gorgeous!
This house is our least expensive home of the four. It does have a partial view of the lake from the living room and front porch. There is about 300 feet of gently sloping walkways to the sandy beach, boathouse, decks and lake. And offers all the great amenities including a wagon!

So Much Fun!

Another mom and I brought a group of girls who are juniors in high school. We were thinking we should have rented a boat, but the girls had the best time just hanging out on the beach and using the kayaks, canoe, and paddle boats to keep them entertained!The house was very clean (I'm picky!) and had all of the utensils, pots, and pans we needed to cook dinner one of the nights.I also appreciated that dish towels, dish soap, laundry detergent, and dryer sheets were all provided. It's the little things!We got to meet the sweet owner of the home the first night we were there. So nice to know she was a phone call away!Overall a great visit and perfect first-time vrbo experience!

Perfect Stay at Lake Martin

The home was amazing, with great space, very clean, very comfortable and the access to the lake was ideal. Two families of four stayed at the house and fit perfectly, the adults each had a separate room and the teens enjoyed the room with the bunk beds. We rented the pontoon boat which was convenient and easy to access beautiful Lake Martin. The owners were great and super helpful. Will stay again at Holiday Cove.

Holiday Amazing Cove

Beautiful properties with large porches for entertaining.The houses are tastefully built and decorated. The cove is quiet and peaceful. Canoes, kayaks, and water toys for adults and children. The boathouse/ dock is great for just hanging out right on the water.

Amazing vacation!

We stayed at house #1 and friends stayed at house #2. We all had a great time on the lake. Amenities provided, such as kayaks, grills, covered deck, etc. were all used and appreciated. Location is very convenient and the ability to dock our boat and jetski right at the property was so convenient and helped make the stay even better. Homes were clean and well equipped with kitchen utensils, coffee maker (thank you!) appliances, etc. Bedrooms were perfect, laundry was so helpful and AC worked great. Could not have asked for a better stay!

Weekend getaway

The home was beautiful and clean. It may be better suited for a family that rents all the properties and stays together. A bit awkward, like your in someone else's backyard when it comes to the availability of the water. The homes closer to the water did take over, again beautiful home, but the access to the lake was not a comfortable environment.

Awesome experience

The add was correct WELCOME TO PARDISE. We stayed at the resort for a week. one of the best vacations we have had in 20 years. Everything was just as advertised. the house was clean and, comfortable with everything we needed. We used the beach area and thoroughly enjoyed evenings at the pavilion. I wanted to play golf and we were 5 miles from the golf course. the facility is conveniently located to the grocery store for the last-minute items. I would not change anything about out stay. The best part of our weeks was meeting the Owners/Property managers Marian and Brad. You could not ask for a better host. They checked on us every day to make sure our stay was enjoyable. Both of them treated us as if we were family. I never felt like they were going out of their way to accommodate us, they were just dam friendly, good people respectful of our privacy. you could tell they were just them being themselves. We will be back.

Deceiving Description

The house does not face the lake. The common area is shared with 4 houses unlike 2 houses in the description. If you look closely at the boat dock pictures you can see 3 out of the houses. This house is behind the one in the very back. Can barely see the lake from the front porch. Very disappointing. On a positive note the house was very very clean & beautiful on the inside. Would be a great place for a big group of friends/family that want to rent a few houses on one property.

Perfect place to rent on the Lake!!

So I've seen people list pros and cons of the places they've stayed in and initially I thought I would do the same only I cant..... I don't have any cons re: Holiday Cove If I could offer 1 tip, it would be that if you book a stay in late Feb, just know the lake is a ghost town until Mid-March. This was not really an issue for our stay as we were there for rest & relaxation on our honeymoon so it felt like we had the WHOLE lake to ourselves. The owner was soooo kind and made our stay all the more enjoyable. I would highly recommend one rent any of her properties as you can tell she takes pride in her homes and genuinely wants guests to have a fabulous stay (which we did) Can't say enough good things about the house or home-owner. Kitchen was stocked with essentials for cooking which was a plus as my husband cooked everyday. The owner is a text/call away but I didn't have any issues so I didn't need to reach out. This is for sure the place to rent on the lake!!

Perfect summer vacation spot

This vacation home is amazing. It has an amazing location with a private water cove. The water is clean and the perfect temperature. The sun covered dock makes for a prefect hang out fitting all of my families needs. We enjoyed BBQ next to the water, docking room for our three boats, and night time fishing which did not disappoint. The screened in porch made for fun evenings with the family playing cards and listening to the wonderful sounds of an Alabama night plus the amazing sound system provided with use of the house. The housing was very cozy and had wonderful decorations all lake themed to keep visitors in the right mind set. "Remember your on lake time". Everything in the house worked great and every room has its own huge flat screen TV. The owners are also very nice and supper accommodating, they answered all our questions putting my family and I at ease. My family loves to spend the Fourth of July on the lake and this house will be our only spot from here on out. Thank you for allowing my family and I to have such a wonderful experience and we will be back!!

Amenities galore

The property was great- beach, boat dock, outdoor games/entertainment were all wonderful for accommodating our family. The house was beautiful- perfectly decorated, great layout, etc. My only complaint was the mattress in the master bedroom- I think the floor was softer lol- but it’s all preference. The bunk room was unusable the first night, as the smoke detector battery was going out and the smoke detector continued to beep so loudly even after removing the battery. We closed the door to block out some of the sound, and the kids slept on the couch. The owner came the next day to change it out. The kitchen was well stocked, and the home was nicely cleaned. The main reason we chose this home was because you could also rent their boat, and didn’t have the hassle of finding the home, putting the boat in, etc. Unfortunately, the owner messaged us a couple of days before our trip to let us know the boat was down and wouldn’t be repaired in time for our stay, so we rented from a local marina. Overall, I would rent again.
