About this property

Lakefront Retreat – Sleeps 16

This peaceful Lake Martin property sleeps 16 guests and is ideal for multi-generational family gatherings, college reunions, and college football fans to spend quality time together.

You'll love the inviting coastal decor, abundance of indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, and breathtaking surroundings that make Timber’s Treasure an idyllic spot for an incredible vacation.

Living Spaces

Groups enjoy spending time in our spacious living area with its comfortable and generous seating area. Curl up on the cozy corner sofa (call dibs on the reclining sections for ultimate comfort) and fire up the flatscreen TV to watch the big game or stream your favorite series. Double doors lead directly to the upper deck, bringing the outside in to you.

Timber’s Treasure also boasts a second living area with sofas that are well-suited to intimate conversations with friends or curling up solo with a great book or journal. This space also has a game table for lively poker nights and competitive tabletop game tournaments. If things get too heated, swing open the double doors that lead directly to the lower patio to let the cooling lake breeze flow through.

The house has A/C throughout to keep you comfortable on those steamy Alabama days. High-speed WiFi is also available for seamless streaming and scrolling.

Kitchen & Dining

The large, open-concept kitchen is perfect for those who prefer the group approach to meal prep. With a large refrigerator and abundant cabinet space, it’s easy to stock up on your favorite foods and snacks. You’ll find all the appliances and equipment needed for preparing almost any dish you can dream of, and the kitchen island provides additional space for the entire group to pitch in with meal prep.

There’s a smaller kitchenette on the basement level with a coffee maker and wine cooler to ensure your mornings and evenings always feature tasty beverages.

When it’s time to enjoy your culinary creations, the table provides space for eight, plus an additional four at the island counter. If additional space is needed, take advantage of the outdoor dining set.

A separate utility room has extra storage and refrigerator space for those can’t-live-without snacks and treats. It also has a washer and dryer to keep your swimming and hiking gear fresh throughout your stay.

Bedrooms & Baths

This house has five beautifully decorated bedrooms and an additional sleeping area, plus 4.5 bathrooms that give your group plenty of space to get cleaned up and ready for each day.

Four of the bedrooms have sumptuous king-size beds which couples will love sinking into at the end of a fun-packed day on the lake. The fifth bedroom has two queen-size beds where up to four guests can join forces for a slumber party, and the sleeping area has four twin beds that families or kids can claim as their own.

Two of the king bedrooms have access to en suite bathrooms for added privacy and convenience, while another of the king bedrooms and the room with two queen beds share a Jack-n-Jill bath. There’s another full bathroom with a tub/shower located on the basement level, for which the final king room and the room with four twin beds share access.

You’ll find a convenient powder room on the main floor, easily accessible from the living room or kitchen.

Outdoor Amenities

Timber Treasure’s outdoor space is as impressive as the indoor space! The property has direct lake access so you can roll straight out of bed and into a refreshing morning swim. The private dock has two jetski ports, a kayak launch, and a selection of water toys included in your rental.

The large main deck is located on the property’s upper level and features a dining table for 6, plus an elegant seating area, perfect for enjoying the spectacular sunsets with a glass of something delicious in your hand.

The lower patio has another seating group that makes a great spot for an afternoon siesta, plus two loungers to soak up some rays.

Head down towards the lake to find an additional patio with a gas grill for cooking up burgers and a Big Green Egg BBQ that’s ideal for roasting meat and veggies low and slow.

The fire pit in front of the lake is where you’ll make some of your most treasured memories, as you enjoy the warmth of the fire's glow trading vacation stories and tall tales while making plans for your next visit.

You’ll find plenty of parking around the front which is a handy feature for groups with multiple vehicles.

Other Things To Note

The Neighborhood

Timbers Treasure is perched on the banks of Lake Martin in Dadeville, Alabama. This tranquil spot is the perfect place for a rejuvenating retreat while still being within easy reach of everything that this popular area has to offer.

Lake Martin was the first to receive the designation of being a Treasured Alabama Lake due to its superior water quality, outstanding natural beauty, and abundance of recreational qualities. There are over 700 miles of coastline to explore and our guests love spending idyllic days out on the water fishing, boating, waterskiing, and swimming.

For an on-land adventure, take a trip to Cherokee Ridge Alpine Trail for scenic lakefront hiking among towering pine trees. Or, spend an interesting hour or two at the Tallapoosee History Museum learning about the early settlers and prominent residents of our county. Then, once you’ve worked up an appetite, head to one of the many highly-rated restaurants just a few minutes from the lake — you’ll find everything from classic American BBQ to authentic Italian cuisine.

We’re also less than 40 minutes from Auburn University which makes Timbers Treasure ideal for combining a restful vacation with visiting family studying there. Football fans can also take advantage of the property’s proximity to Jordan-Hare stadium and catch a Tigers game while in the area.

Great VRBO!

This is one of the best rentals we’ve stayed in. Layout of the house is great & well stocked. Plenty of room inside & out. We loved sitting around the fire pit. Furniture inside comfy too! Friendly neighbors too!

Lots of room

Lots of room. Was great for our needs. The water level was a little down and the dock situation was tricky but we made it work.

Great House

Loved this house. It is beautiful and very updated. It was perfect for our friend group because there was a bed for everyone that wasn’t a bunkbed or sofa bed. The house was clean with a lot of amenities. Justine is a great host and very responsive. Would definitely rent again.

GREAT lake house!!

So much to love about this house! It's definitely a nice set up for a group. There were 12 in our party and it was very comfortable for all of us. The king beds were super comfy; there were more than enough bath towels, beach towels and throw blankets. Bathrooms had shampoo, conditioner, and soap and the house was stocked with plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, etc. for our party. It was such a luxury to have THREE refrigerators because we did a lot of cooking! There was plenty of Tupperware for leftovers as well, which was really nice. TVs were great, if you have tv-watchers in the crowd. The living room was set up really nice for a large group and the open floor plan in the kitchen/great room was excellent for gathering. We came from all directions, so we really appreciated that there was ample parking - nobody had to move cars because the area was spacious. We rented a pontoon boat and the dock was perfect for loading/unloading passengers. Our crew LOVED the kayaks and water toys too! Overall, we really loved this house, would highly recommend it, and would not hesitate to book again.

About the host

Hosted by Justine Bright

Host profile image
Hi, We are Justine and Bruce. We are retired REALTORs who have escaped the cold climate of the snow belt for the sunnier Alabama weather. Bruce started coming to Lake Martin with his family in the mid-1960s and spent many idyllic summers here as a teenager. He has such wonderful memories from that time, and we hope to add to them now that we’re retired.

We own four beautiful homes on Lake Martin, and we’ve chosen to take care of them ourselves rather than hiring a management company because we love hosting our guests and making sure they have the best experience possible. It brings us so much joy to know that others are experiencing the beauty of Lake Martin — the sunsets in particular are breathtaking!

When we’re not busy taking care of our properties you’ll mostly find us hanging out with our 17-year-old poodle and two-year-old AussieDoodle. We love to jet ski and boat on the lake, and we’re very keen cooks. Travel is another passion of ours, and we’re always looking forward to our next big adventure.
