About this property

"The Cabin" at North Alabama Sailing Marina - Sail, Fish, Ski or Just Relax!

Sail, fish, ski or do nothing but relax on "The Cabin's" spacious front porch overlooking Lake Guntersville. The Cabin is located at North Alabama Sailing Marina with a fresh renovation throughout the two bedroom one bath 1200 square foot home. Large picture windows offer a million dollar view of the lake.

Bring your own boat, sail or motor, and launch from our private ramp and have parking for the vehicle and trailer adjacent to the Cabin. Slip space is provide throughout your stay. Walk out in the morning with a cup of coffee and get on your boat ready for the day. A charcoal grill and lakeside fire pit are provided for evening entertaining. Bring the wife along to enjoy the downtown antique shopping, casual breakfast / lunch or enjoy a day reading on the porch overlooking Lake Guntersville.

The house has all the amenities of home. It comes with a large front loading washer and dryer, and the kitchen has a full size electric stove, microwave and refrigerator. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, cookware, utensils, and all the essentials to prepare a meal. The dining room has seating for six.

Gather in the large living room and sink in the comfy leather sofa and enjoy the view of beautiful Lake Guntersville, watch movies on the large flat screen TV or venture out on the porch and while away the evening on the porch swing.

There are two spacious bedrooms. One has a new king size bed and the other has a new full size bed and one new twin over full bunk bed. Comfortably accommodating six guests.

Linens for the bath and bedrooms are provided.

Groceries, restaurants, gas and bait are available within a mile. "Fire by the Lake" restaurant and bar is within walking distance and "Char Burger", a local favorite, is within a quarter of a mile.

Once you get here you won't want to leave!

Best VBRO Experience

This was by far the best experience I’ve ever had renting a place. The management was amazing! We were staying in a weekend that was plagued with heavy storms, the management called me several times and was very helpful and accommodating. I will definitely be going back!

Perfect stay for play at Supreme Courts

We stayed for a volleyball tournament in Guntersville. We didn’t spend much time at the cabin but it was perfect for our needs. It was two minutes from the courts which was so great. I’d love to stay again when it’s warmer.

Lake Guntersville

Awesome stay... my wife and I really liked the cabin by the lake. My wife really liked shopping at the shops in Guntersville. Dinner at Fire by the Lake was really good and cooked to order. The cabin was very clean and relaxing with all of the amenities provided. Sitting on the front porch looking at the lake was very relaxing.

Taste of Lake life!

This was our first trip to the Lake Guntersville area and this property was a great taste of the area! Tucked in a quiet corner of a marina, we enjoyed walking out on the dock and enjoying the sunset from the swing while hearing the boats rock in the water. We were close enough to any of the local restaurants and grocery stores we wanted to visit. House was exactly what we needed, clean, spacious, affordable, and cozy. If we're ever in the area again, we'll be sure to choose this location!

Awesome place to stay!!

We have stayed here multiple times now and have loved each visit. The house itself is nice, spacious and is always very clean. My favorite place is on the front porch swing looking at the lake. The swing at the end of the dock is always nice too. The owners are always helpful with restaurant suggestions and easy check in. There were 6 of us staying (ages 2 and up) and we had plenty of room. Looking forward to the next time we are in the area again.

About the host

Hosted by Susan and T Wilson

Host profile image
A group of sailors purchased the North Alabama Sailing Marina to ensure this beautiful sailing water would be available for many years to sailors throughout the region. My husband and I are part of the owners group. We came to the local area 15 years ago from Honolulu with three children who love the water and needed to be near the water. We sailed in Hawaii and I earned my US Sailing instructor's certificate while there. I am a registered US Coast Guard Captain and avid sailor who likes to race sailboats. Since sailing at Lake Guntersville we have become fast friends with several other sailors who love the area and wanted to ensure the marina was going to be available for the community to use and enjoy...so we bought it in January of 2016.

The Sailors Group (TSG) has eight active family partners and we own 25 sailboats! We all love to sail and enjoy the water. With a labor of love we renovated the 2 bedroom "Cabin" so that others could visit Guntersville and enjoy the same great lake we play on.

Some of the partners are around the marina most of the time and can give you information of where to eat, pick up groceries or when you might be able to hear live music in downtown Guntersville.

Why they chose this property

There is nothing like a fresh cup of coffee in the morning looking out over the lake. The best lake access is right out your door...a launch ramp and ample parking are provided and at the end of the day you can walk next door to "Fire by the Lake" and enjoy a meal, something to drink and often live music out on their dock.

What makes this property unique

A launch ramp on site, trailer parking, and a boat slip are included in your stay.
