Rustic lake cabin with beautiful views of the Coosa river which looks like a huge lake. Comfy beds and from your pillow in the main suite you can see a panoramic view of the moons reflection dancing across the water. Solid dock on the water, lots of trees and birds to watch. Not fancy but definitely charming. Fantastic back porch w/ plenty of rocking chairs, large table. & porch swing. It’s like going back in time.
