Waverly Creek Retreat-kayaks/fire pit/pet friendly

About this space
Waverly Creek Retreat is a waterfront retreat tucked away in the woods on a quiet and peaceful area of Lake Martin. Relax on the shady back porch and watch the herons fly by or wade in the shallow creek area (perfect for families with kids) During summer pool, park your watercraft at the dock and head out for a day of adventure. Enjoy all the amenities it has to offer including kayaks, grill, fire pit, fishing & dock. Can be rented with Creekside Cottage and 2 tiny cabins to sleep up to 24!
The space
2 story home with 3 bedrooms and 2 bath. 1st floor includes 2 queen bedrooms, bathroom, kitchen and living area. 2nd floor includes loft, primary king bedroom and bath. Private dock, kayaks, cornhole, gas grill, wood fire pit are all included at no extra charge.

Walk out wading area with mini beach.
Great for children & kayaking. Deeper water is about 50’ out.
Other things to note
We have full water access during summer pool (April - October) which is perfect for swimming, boating, and fishing off the dock. Between November & March, the water levels decrease as part of a conservation initiative of Alabama Power. Kayaks can be utilized in the creek year round.

The water is shallow in this part of the creek (only 3 feet at the dock during summer pool). No diving is allowed from the dock. If bringing a boat to the dock, please make sure you stay to the far left of the creek coming in and stay to the far right of the creek going out a that is the deepest part. Also, make sure you heed the buoys in the area as they indicate shallow water levels.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

The lake level was low but this was as advertised for this time of year- we were able to put the boats in on the side without too much issue and had very peaceful rows. Overall we had a nice trip and will be back. The host also recommended sone hikes and the Smith Fire Tower 10 min away was stunningly beautiful.

The property was really nice. It was easy to get in and out. If you were going back to the property in the dark be sure to leave the outside lights on, so it’s easier to see the driveway coming back. The host was great. I love that. There was very little you had to do before you left, and the mattresses on every bed were very comfortable to sleep on. That was a plus since my husband and I both have bad backs. Lots of board games for children and family time together, but if the adults need a quiet space, the game room and the living room,are separated for some quiet time spots. The kayaks and the paddle boards were very nice to have on site. We were able to enjoy a paddling on the lake. I highly recommend this Home away from home.

The house is nice. The kitchen is very small for the family Thanksgiving gathering we had planned. Honestly the house is great but truly needs a thorough cleaning! Things were left behind like drink cans and the grill uncovered with dirty utensils. It’s little things that could be improved upon to receive a five star review.
