Loved the house, dock, and location on the lake. The house is only about 15 minutes from Cullman, makes it great to enjoy the lake and still have the convenience of a city near by. Property owner was extremely helpful with any questions we had.

Fun Stay

Cozy in the cove was a great place for our family. It had plenty of room for the 5 of us. The dock was a lot of fun for our kids! We also loved being close to Dodge City & Cullman. The only suggestion I would make is to update your listing pictures and make sure people know that the boat slip is unavailable.

Cozy Cove

We had a wonderful visit! Had 4 young kids, they loved swimming off the dock, kayaking, and fishing. We rented a boat and kept it on the dock. We used the grill every night and even though it was 95 degrees we used the fire pit and had smores one night, the kids also enjoyed the disc golf that is set up in the grill area. We had a great time and would definitely recommend this place.

Labor Day Weekend

We made the trip to Cozy in the Cove over Labor Day weekend with 4 adults and 5 kids. The house interior is surprisingly spacious with that many people and was very clean. The outdoor area was nice by the fire pit, we enjoyed the free firewood and s’mores supplies. We were able to cook out on the grill and the kids enjoyed the frisbee golf setup. The dock was great and we were able to rent a pontoon boat with the help of Angela. The stairs down are a bit dicey and can use some repair, but did not impact us at all. The house is convenient to shops and gas stations. On the boat, it was a nice 20-25 minute ride out to Trident Marina for lunch. Long winded way of saying we had a great time at the house and would come back again in the future.

Fun weekend at the lake

Perfect lake weekend getaway for us and our friends (4 adults / 5 kids ages 4-8). Everyone enjoyed adventuring in the kayaks & paddle board, fishing off the pier and playing in the water. Having a gas and charcoal grill were helpful for cooking. The firepit was a special touch to enjoy while the kids played hide and seek and swung on the hammock. Location was fairly close to town (about 20 minutes), so running to Walmart for groceries was convenient. Communication with the host was fast and helpful. We would book again!

Exceedingly Cozy

Our church group had a wonderful stay at Cozy with a View. It was the perfect setting for a girl's getaway - plenty of dishes, wine glasses, cooking utensils, etc to get through our stay. Even though there were nine of us, it didn't feel cramped - there was plenty of room to spread out. The couch was particularly comfy. We also enjoyed spending time on the covered patio, dock, and utilizing the kayaks and paddle board. The host was very communicative and quick to respond to any questions. Would definitely come back!

Perfect Getaway

We were looking for a quick getaway on the Lewis Smith Lake and found the perfect one in Cozy in the Cove. It had everything we need for a nice relaxing time with plenty for the kids to enjoy. The house was clean and fit everyone comfortably. The dock was perfect for everyone to hang out and go back and forth between the water and just string out enjoying the sun. The kids had a blast with the kayaks and the paddle board. The firepit area was perfect to enjoy the nice cool evenings. We got exactly what we were looking for.

Great family getaway!

Our family of five (ages 23 to 53) had an amazing end-of-summer weekend at Cozy in the Cove. Angela was quick to respond to questions prior to booking, helped direct us to a boat rental, and was agreeable to our request for a late checkout which meant two full days on the lake. The house has a great layout, multiple seating areas, and large rooms with updated decor and bathrooms. The sheets and towels were pristine and everyone said their bed was comfortable. The top of the double-decker dock has a great view and the table up there was a perfect place to watch the sunset and play a game before dinner. The next day was a scorcher so we were glad to have the boat. We toured the lake, jumped off the rocks/cliffs, and stopped in shaded coves to float. Our long hot day ended with everyone showering, eating dinner, and watching football. There was plenty of space and seating in the living room for five of us to spread out and lounge. When I woke up at 7am on Sunday it was only 71 degrees. I kayaked for an hour and only saw a beaver and a crane - no boats or jet skis. It was a great way to start the day. We enjoyed breakfast on the screened porch - my favorite spot in the house - before going back to the dock to swim, sun, paddle-board, and relax before heading back home. Cozy in the Cove had everything we were looking for in a rental - the room we needed, cleanliness, amenities, and an easy-to find location with great water access. We will definitely be back.

I could not have asked for a kinder owner to work with during this trip. Angela's communications were timely and helpful. Her lake home was perfect for our family.
