Newly renovated and sitting in a serene location, this tree-lined hideaway is ideal for a visiting family or friend group! Mere minutes from your stay, you can access Lake Martin for exciting days along the water. Lounge blissfully on the lake's beach or go for scenic rides on a boat via ramp or dock. Indulge in lovely picnics together with the picturesque lake vista serving as your backdrop. Wind Creek Casino is less than 30 minutes away and Auburn University is less than an hour away. The area also boasts a great variety of popular wedding venues.

The beautiful Alabama weather is waiting to be enjoyed from the home's covered back porch! A gas grill and firepit are also available for outdoor entertainment.

Inside, the open layout promotes cozy family moments. The living room has ample seating overlooking a large smart TV, whereas the kitchen is well-equipped with stainless steel appliances and wooden block countertops. The separate coffee station will be well-loved by coffee fanatics, and the private washer/dryer is available to refresh your daily wear.

Simply decorated with soft linens and central air, the four bedrooms provide restful spots to rest your head. A fireplace in the living room and a second smart TV in the primary bedroom round out the interior perks.

Red Oak serenity

This place was great. Super clean, quiet and private. We could see Lake Martin from the front porch. We enjoyed walking through the area and sitting on the back deck.

Nice - bathroom problem and alarm

The house was clean and nice and met our needs. Hand soap was missing or didn't work in bathrooms. Needs an over the door rack towel rack to hang wet towels. in the bathrooms. The big problem was in the hall bathroom. We noticed when we arrived and used that bathroom in the hall that there was a leak under the sink. I looked at it and the plumbing was really poorly done in that bathroom. We placed a container under the pipes to catch the water. We weren't there much, just sleeping. However on Sunday morning the we were leaving my son used the sink and alarms started going of really loud even coming from the sound bar in the living room. There was a water leak detector under the sink, it had al ready rusted a bit and was beeping. We're not sure whether the water alarm caused the loud alarm in the whole house or not but it lasted about 10 minutes and woke everyone up at 5:15 am. We would appreciate some kind of refund for this inconvenience and chaos.
