Fabulous & spacious home centrally located to so many attractions, yet giving you the peaceful feeling of nature and all it has to offer.

Cross the street from our vineyard and hike the 16 acres of hiking trails. Plenty of unique local stores in the area to shop. We are just 2 miles off of I-59, major interstates.

Centrally located to Lake Guntersville and Lake Weiss. Desoto State Park and Little River Canyon are within 25-45 minutes away. Centrally located to Birmingham, Huntsville, Chattanooga, and Atlanta. We have the perfect getaway for whatever your looking for whether it’s adventure, kicking back to relax, or even to write your next song or book. Come and enjoy, we look forward to meeting you.
