Beautiful 4-bedroom Lakefront Retreat Located in Peaceful Cove at Lake Martin!

Lakefront Retreat in a Quiet Cove | Hot Tub, Dock, Outdoor Bar, & Room to Relax

Welcome to your Lake Martin escape! A beautifully appointed 4-bedroom lakefront retreat tucked into a peaceful cove, featuring a hot tub, large dock, outdoor bar, multiple TVs, and expansive seating designed for unforgettable lake days and relaxing evenings. From morning coffee overlooking the water to sunset drinks by the dock or in the hot tub, this home was built for families and friends who want comfort, connection, and an exceptional outdoor experience on Lake Martin.



The Home

Our spacious layout comfortably sleeps families and groups with room to spread out:
• Primary Suite: King bed, private bath, and serene lake views
• Bedroom 2: Queen bed
• Bedroom 3: Queen bed
• Loft: Two full-size bunk beds (4 beds), a favorite spot for kids and teens, complete with a TV and lounge space

Whether you’re gathering for movie night, playing games, or sneaking off for a quiet moment, the home offers a great balance of shared and private spaces.



Outdoor Living — The Heart of the Property

This is where the home truly shines.

Step outside to an expansive lakefront setup designed for all-day enjoyment:
• Covered outdoor seating area with shade and fans
• Large dock with space for up to 3 boats (water levels permitting)
• Hot tub overlooking the cove, perfect year-round
• Outdoor bar ideal for cocktails, mocktails, or morning mimosas
• Grilling area for easy lakeside meals
• Two outdoor TVs for games, music, or movie nights
• Over 40 seats outdoors, thoughtfully arranged for conversation, dining, and relaxing

Whether you’re floating, grilling, watching the kids swim, or just listening to the water lap the dock, this home was made to keep everyone outside and together.



Perfect for Families & Groups
• Quiet cove location = calmer water and safer swimming
• Plenty of seating and space so no one feels crowded
• Kid-friendly layout with a dedicated loft area
• Ideal for lake days, game days, girls’ weekends, or multi-family trips

Many guests tell us the outdoor area alone is worth the stay, and once you arrive, you’ll see why.



About Lake Levels & Seasonal Drawdown (Important to Know)

Lake Martin is a managed lake, and each year the water level is intentionally lowered during the fall and winter months as part of Alabama Power’s standard lake management process.

What this means for guests:
• Late October through early spring, water levels are typically lower and at some points almost completely dry.
• During drawdown, portions of the shoreline and dock area may be visible or completely dry
• Boat access may be limited depending on lake levels at that specific time and boat size
• The dock remains usable for relaxing and enjoying the view

The good news:
Many guests love the drawdown season for its peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, fewer boats, crisp air, and perfect hot tub weather. It’s an ideal time for relaxation, reconnecting, and enjoying Lake Martin at a slower pace.

Water levels usually return to full pool in the spring and summer, bringing excellent boating, swimming, and high-energy lake days.

We’re always happy to answer questions about current lake conditions before your stay so you can plan accordingly.



Location Highlights
• Quiet, private cove with minimal boat traffic
• Easy access to main lake when water levels are up
• Short drive to local marinas, dining, and Lake Martin attractions
• Feels secluded, yet close to everything you need



What Guests Love Most
• Exceptionally clean and well-stocked home
• Outdoor space that feels like a private resort
• Thoughtful communication and local insight
• A setting that makes it hard to leave

Definitely the most well stocked VRBO I have ever stayed in! The hosts wrote a hand written note, left snacks and drinks, and had every toiletry item and kitchen tool you could think of! There was even a curler, straightener, and hair blow dryer! Very impressed by their thoughtfulness and attention to detail. We really enjoyed hanging out outside and watching the games. Would absolutely recommend this place!

We have had the best week here. The house was so well stocked. I was amazed at all the extras the hosts provided for us. From hair dryers, to laundry detergent, to garbage bags, to snacks. The outdoor area was perfect for cooking and relaxing. The boat dock was so easy to use and swim from. They also had a ton of water toys and floats that we were able to use. This place was great and we will be back!

Wonderful home!

The property was beautiful and decorated perfect! The owners and manager thought of everything when it comes to outfitting the house. Very impressed with the amenities for a vacation rental. One thing I would recommend is a guest book with info for local events/activities/house overview and a signing record of all the previous guests. I would highly recommend the property!

Beautiful, private Lake Martin haven

We spent a week at Bobby & Brianna’s lovely home and loved our visit. The home is well appointed with more amenities and special touches than expected. We had two teenaged girls who enjoyed paddle boarding in the cove and River North Marina made renting a boat super convenient. The guidebook provided was great and although we are repeat Lake Martin guests, we learned a new place in Alex City. Thank you!

Great Backyard

My family and I had a great time at this house. We spent the majority of our time out back. There was everything you could think of. We couldn’t figure out how to work the gas fire pit on the porch but we were still able to build a real fire with everything provided. They even gave s’mores items. We will definitely visit this house again.

Beautiful Home

Beautiful quiet home on cove! The hospitality was amazing! They had us fire wood, things to make s’mores and the best coffee to ground and make expresso! It was fabulous! We really enjoyed the outdoor space even while it was raining. The owners made sure that the babies had what they needed. The wood burning fireplace was so nice and relaxing. They even brought propane for the outdoor heaters to make sure every thing was perfect. The black stone made the best steaks. I highly recommend.
