Amazing Log Cabin on the Water!

A short drive from Birmingham, you will feel like you’re a world away as you meander along a quiet road with picturesque views of the countryside. You’ll be welcomed inside this beautiful rustic Adirondack style log cabin by the aroma of knotty pine into a huge kitchen and dining room where you can enjoy a family breakfast next to a real wood fireplace with wide views of the lake.

Take a moment to catch your breath before stepping into the Great Room. Here you can read a book while watching the boats go by on the comfortable leather sofa, enjoy a glass of wine by the floor to ceiling rock fireplace, watch TV with the whole family, or just sit and enjoy the details of this exquisitely decorated room with pine wood beams stretched across the soaring ceilings.

You’ll be drawn up to the loft where you will find an open area with bonus twin beds with views of the Great Room and Smith Lake. Just off the Great Room, a hand-crafted King Bed with a mural of the Lake and beautiful armoire make up the master suite. The master bath features a claw foot tub and an incredible custom stone and slate shower large enough for two.

Wake up to awesome views of the lake from the second King suite with adjoining bathroom. The 3rd ground floor bedroom features a King bed and 3rd bath. The 2nd floor offers a bedroom with a full size bed and sleeping loft with twin beds. With all the beauty inside, you tend to forget the main reason you came here but eventually you will find yourself on the back covered porch looking out over a large deck with table for outdoor dinning and outdoor wood burning fireplace. The amazingly clear and deep waters of the main body of Rock Creek.

A large fenced in yard allows Mom and Dad the opportunity relax on the porch swing and watch the kids and puppies play. When you’re ready to go down to the lake, a gentle walk leads you to the boat dock with swim pier and double jet-ski lifts. You’ll definitely want to take advantage of the large stainless gas grill enjoy your meal in the lakeside gazebo with picnic table and double glider. The house also has a state or the art security system with external cameras. With all these extraordinary amenities and accommodations for up to 10 people, you’ll want to come every season to Cody’s Cabin.

The property was perfect for bringing our dogs! Great outdoor space, fenced yard and dock. We were able to go for walks around the surrounding farmland which the dogs loved. When you think of a cabin, this is the picture in the dictionary - everything is wood and dark. It was rather chilly while we were there so we played lots of games and watched movies. The television was not the most updated but we really only used it at night. The owner was very responsive and helpful.

My Family and 2 dogs had a wonderful stay in October. The weather was perfect and the cabin was very nice. We spent most of our time out on the porch sitting on the swing or by the fire. The kitchen was great for meals and had all we needed. We hope to return soon.

Our family of seven gathers once or twice a year to celebrate our grandson and oldest son's lives. The outside area was so pleasant. We enjoyed the rockers and swings very much. Having two coffee pots for this coffee-drinking family was a big plus. This is a time of remembrance and reflection for all of us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cody's Cabin. Our host was so kind and accommodating. He allowed us to bring our dogs, which we greatly appreciated. The cabin is beautiful. We loved that the king bedrooms are on the same floor. We wished we could use the hot tub, but in all fairness, it was not listed in the accommodations. The bedroom and bathroom doors need some work, as they are hard to open and close/lock, but we made it work.
