About this property

Lake Tuscaloosa Designer House with 4 King Beds! -Right on Water- 20 Min to UA!

Bring your family, friends or a mixture of both to enjoy this newly remodeled and fully decorated home right on Lake Tuscaloosa.

This Lake Tuscaloosa Rental has been on this property for 30 year, but it deserved a little love and attention. Our professional designer and contractor have just finished updating and decorating this wonderful 5-bedroom 3.5 bath home, overlooking not the slightest detail to ensure the comfort of our guests.

Enjoy spending time eating or just relaxing together on the fully screened-in porch, with a wonderful view of the south shore of Lake Tuscaloosa. Take a stroll down the short path to the new stationary dock for swimming and boating. Just across the lake or down the street is Smith's Marina where you can rent a pontoon boat for even more fun on the water. Our neighborhood boat launch is 3 houses down from us, or a few second’s drive, for easy access should you come equipped with your own boat.

The kitchen, equipped with the latest in modern appliances, is just off of the waterfront dining area. The counters are granite and the appliances are stainless steel. The double-oven is large enough to cook mountains of food for all 12 of you! Indeed, this fabulous and spacious kitchen is set-up for cooking any size meal from cook-outs to Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.

We provide a gas grill with propane for grilling out on the deck, if you care for that ambiance – and who doesn’t?

Whether there are 5 or 12 guests, you can gather and eat around the wet-bar as well.

The open-concept living room is a comfortable gathering spot for watching movies, sporting events, or for folks who want to engage in game night. The 60" TV has full HD cable and a smart blu-ray player for movies and shows. We also have wifi for all your devices and needs.

What about bedrooms?

Well, on the main level there is a bedroom with a king-size bed and a private bath. The bath has a tub/ shower combo. Occupants of this bedroom can step through the sliding glass doors that lead out to the wrap-around deck. As with all the bedrooms, this one comes with its own flat screen TV, hooked up to full HD cable.

There are 4 bedrooms and 2 baths downstairs.

The back bedroom has a king-size bed and private bath, featuring a tub with tile surround. The front and middle bedrooms also have king-size beds. These two bedrooms share the large hall bathroom with the front bunk room – ideal for kids!
The hall bath has a double vanity with granite top and separate area for the toilet and large walk-in tile shower. The bunk room has 2 sets of bunks with extra-long twin mattresses.

This Lake Tuscaloosa Rental has been designed to ensure the comfortableness and enjoyment of families and groups of all sizes.
We take pride in providing everything that you need for a fun gathering on the serene and striking Lake Tuscaloosa.

That means that if there’s some missing amenity, some extra level of comfort we’ve forgotten– all you need to do is ask and we will be happy to get it for you. (We can’t promise a UA football win, but we’ll do everything within reason to accommodate you!)

Fantastic Property

This home was amazing! Very clean with lots of space for our group. Absolutely beautiful views as we were right on the lake. Quiet, safe and beautiful. We were in the area for college tour of Univ of AL and to watch the game on Saturday! My dad, 81 yrs old, whose life long dream was to see Bama play ball! We made that happen and the home away from home made our stay complete! Thank you and we will definitely rent again! BTW, my nephew got accepted to UofA so we will be back!

Family Trip

The house was clean and inviting. Nicely decorated and had a regular coffee pot plus a Keurig. Enough rooms for everyone and great views of the water! We spent most of our time on the large screened in porch and in the water! Stores were close by as well to get anything else you needed.

Peaceful Relaxing and Beautiful

A beautiful house with an even more beautiful view. From the screened in porch to all the attention to detail in the house this is a well stocked, very comfortable house to enjoy the lake and the peacefulness that comes with it. We were a big group of couples that all loved our stay here. King beds were very comfortable and the house is stock with all of the necessities. Wish we lived closer, we would definitely stay here often.

Hidden Gem on Lake Tuscaloosa

I and my familly (7 adults and 5 children) had a wonderful new years holiday on the property. The house was clean with excellent touches everywhere to make guests feel welcome (air fresheners, plenty of towels, soap and shampoo in the bathrooms, fire starters, and plenty of wood) and a nicely stocked kitchen for guests who like to cook. The house was plenty big for our party when you include the dual wrap around porches which would be even better in the summer. All told a house we'll definitely book again in the area.

Family Celebration for our sisters 60th birthday

I can not say enough good things about this perfect lake house. Our family had a great time together celebrating our sisters birthday. The house is located in a perfect area on the lake. We never worried about our boat being damaged from the waves of the boat traffic. The house is situated in a perfect slough that offers great water for swimming, boating or just sitting on the porch looking at the view of the lake. Some of the older adults really enjoyed the screened in porch with fans that allowed them to watch the children have fun in the water. We cooked all our meals here in the kitchen that offered all the necessities we needed to cook with and we also had a nice grill for grilling out. There is a very large beautiful dining table and tables on the screened in porch that provided enough room for everyone to sit while they enjoyed their meal. The entire house is beautifully decorated. I have never stayed in a house with so many king size beds. It was awesome. Lake Tuscaloosa is a beautiful lake. Many of the larger lakes in Alabama get very congested, but we were there from Thursday - Sunday and we had great water for skiing and boating the entire time. We also loved that there was a boat launch, grocery store and gas station very close to the house. I highly recommend this lake house to everyone. We made so many great memories and I can't wait to come back next year. Thank you so much to the owners who were more than accomodating and made our stay perfect.

No extra pillows or blankets / dusty

I called after the first night asking where I could find extra pillows and blankets but the owner was not very friendly at all. He sent a women over to see what was wrong and she was extremely nice and said he would get back to us.But unfortunately he never did! So we never received extra pillows or blankets. There were not even enough pillows to go around especially in the bunk bed room they only had the decorative ones and we wouldn’t use those. The house was very dusty and the floors needed to be cleaned. My granddaughters socks were black with dirt after walking in the hardwood floors and full of dust balls. Besides that the house is beautiful and roomy Outside is very rundown but inside is all new. We just expected more since we were were charged over 7,000 for 4 nights. We were ok paying we were there for graduation but it wasn’t worth what we paid it’s way overpriced. It’s kind of sad you come from out of state and they know it’s Graduation or a football game snd the prices are jacked up. Def not like staying jn a hotel with plush amenities but it was nice to have everyone stay all together!!

Thanksgiving/Iron Bowl

Our growing family rented this home to celebrate Thanksgiving and attend the Iron Bowl in Tuscaloosa.

Bama Homecoming

We stayed at this home for Bama Homecoming with 2 other couples and 1 single mom. The house was perfect! 4 bedrooms with kings! No one has to fight for a big bed. One room had 2 bunk beds, so would have been great if there were kids coming as well. House was very clean, and the view of the lake is spectacular! Would rent here again without hesitation. The house is only 20-25 min from campus.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Henry

Host profile image
I am in the rental home business in Tuscaloosa. I started out in traditional rental homes and apartments. In 2012 we began in the vacation rental business. We currently have 2 homes on Lake Tuscaloosa and 3 properties on the Gulf Coast on Perdido Key in Florida. We specialize in properties that work best for families and groups. I grew up on Lake Tuscaloosa since I was born. We bought our first house on Lake Tuscaloosa in 2012 and added this home in 2015. We have found what works best for our family and for our guests over the last 5 years. We try to design and decorate our vacation rentals to be as nice and comfortable as possible.

Why they chose this property

This home sits close to the water on a large open area of the Lake Tuscaloosa. The water is deep off the end of the dock. There is also a "No Wake" buoy out in front of our dock so it keep the boat traffic well away from us allowing calm water for kayaking and paddle boarding. It has a great view and great ways to to enjoy the lake or just relax.

We bought this house with a vision for what it could be. We brought our designer in from the beginning. Everything from the remodel through the finishing touches was coordinated together. We updated the home specifically for our guest and ourselves as a second home on the lake. We bought everything in the home brand new so we were able to bring it all together for a great experience.

What makes this property unique

Professionally designed and decorated home for maximum enjoyment of the lake and each other is the best way to describe the home. There is a large screened in porch overlooking the lake. There is nothing better than just sitting in one of the rocking chairs relaxing and enjoying the great view.
