Keepin' It Reel. 4 BR waterfront home with 2 slip boathouse

Charming, newly renovated home minutes from everything yet tucked away in the beautiful Point of Pines lakeside neighborhood. With a boat ramp at the neighborhood entrance, there is easy access to the property by water. The house includes a private boathouse with two slips for your use. You will have everything you need to enjoy a peaceful time on the lake. Enjoy fishing from the dock or boat. Watch the sunset over the water as you listen to logs crackle in the firepit. Take a hike in nearby Lake Guntersville State Park. Take the kids to the playground at the city park. Explore all the shopping that Guntersville and nearby Scottsboro have to offer, including the infamous "Unclaimed Baggage" store or the unique Mike's Bins experience!
-The Property-
Main bedroom has a queen bed overlooking the water and a half-bath. Second bedroom overlooks the water and has a King Bed. The third bedroom has a King Bed. The fourth bedroom is located downstairs and has two twin beds and two trundle twin beds. (The downstairs bedroom is accessed through the sliding glass doors on the back patio. There are no interior steps.)
Bathroom one has a huge tiled shower. Bathroom two is built for two with a separate water closet, huge stand alone soaking tub, and tiled shower with body sprayers, hand wand, and two shower heads. See the Photos!
Plenty of fluffy, fresh linens are provided for your stay.
Amenities include full use of the boat house, propane grill, fire pit, high speed wifi, Smart 4K flat screen TVs in every bedroom and in a 65 inch TV in the living room with apps to use your existing Amazon Prime, Netflix, and/or Hulu accounts, Bluray/DVD player, High Efficiency Washer and Dryer, Keurig coffee maker (with complimentary Kcups), Tankless hot water heater (so you never run out of hot water with all those family members that come along!), tons of cards and board games, and a small book library. The kitchen is well appointed to provide your every need during your stay.
New aluminum dock ladder has been added for easier swimming access.
We have three nice sit on top Kayaks that we rent the use of all three for your entire stay for a $100 flat fee. Just ask if you are interested.
Feel free to check the lake levels for your trip (https://www.tva.com/environment/lake-levels/Guntersville/Operating-Guide). 595 ft equates to approximately 4 ft levels in the boathouse. The lake is a living beast. The experience at the water can vary depending on lake level and lake weeds or debris. TVA sprays several times a year and we hire a local crew to cut and remove at the beginning of the summer.
We just bought a new double oven for the kitchen and a new grill (picture is in with lakehouse pictures). It can do propane, charcoal, or smoking. We provide the propane. If you want to use the other features come prepared.
FYI....Guntersville Publix will deliver groceries to the front door if you don't want to pack groceries.
This is our 1st vacation rental. We are premier hosts and now have 3 lake properties (Two on Smith Lake and one on Guntersville Lake). The other property IDs for the others are 3094465 and 2473402.

Great Weekend Getaway!

Ben and Lela have done an excellent job on this property! The inside is beautifully decorated with an amazing bathroom. This house had everything we needed and we enjoyed use of the boat dock to store our boat in the evenings. Ben and Lela were very easy to work with and responded quickly to all our questions. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

A Family Gathering

Keepin' It Reel provided a nice place for my family to meet to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday. Positives: The hosts let us check in early as the house was cleaned the day before. There was a well-stocked kitchen with good quality cookware--even cast-iron pans. The bathrooms were nice and had amazing showers. Three of the bedrooms were good. The beds were a bit soft, but not bad for a vacation home. Unfortunately, there were also some negatives about this vacation home which detracted from an enjoyable holiday. The downstairs bedroom was very musty smelling. Due to the musty smell, we could not sleep there. I had to concoct a bed out of comforters because my son's allergies would not tolerate the downstairs. We attempted to use the sleeper sofa in the living room, but the bed's frame appeared to be broken on one side, and the mattress would have been very uncomfortable anyways. In addition, the couch needs to be replaced. It was worn out and had no support left. **The online listing was accurate except for the mustiness and the couch's comfort.

Lovely touches throughout

We had a quick 2 night stay with my husband and I and my 80+ year old parents. The house was very clean with lovely decor and so many small thoughtful touches. It is a nice flat lot and on a lovely street for walking as well. My only note is to be aware that there are 2 large steps into the main living area (with the pretty lake view). We would absolutely stay again!

Peaceful stay

The house is a wonderful place to relax and unwind. It’s close enough to the main part of the lake for easy access, but if you want to just use the kayaks to paddle around the inlet that’s easy enough. Grocery stores are within 15 minutes and carry all you need. Both showers are amazing as far as water pressure and temperature go, and the larger of the two with the rainfall head and multiple jets is an experience anyone who stays here should definitely try. We had a blast here and will definitely keep it in mind for our next escape. The hosts were great with communication as well.

Nice place

House is roomier than it appears from the outside. Nice addition and remodeling has been done in portions of the house. Furnishings were great. Nice neighborhood. Little too far off the water than I like but its not too bad....just be ready to carry everything to the dock and back 100 yards or so. Very shallow and grassy end of the lake so it made fishing tough off the dock and in the cove.That may be a seasonal issue. We really enjoyed our stay though and would recommend it to anyone.

Nice place.Would have liked more direct description re: location on the lake and boathouse useabilty

*Condensed because of character limits* The house was clean and well stocked. Ben and Lela were responsive and accommodating. A few things I feel were described somewhat “gray”, however. A) The lake is 2x farther away from back of the house then the picture of the backyard shows. B) The boat ramp listed as "at the entrance of the neighborhood" is over a mile away. Eel grass is taking over the lake. If you launch at that ramp, your trailer will be covered in it. And you'll boat in a lake full of it. Not the owners fault, but it should be mentioned. C) The house is located on a very shallow part of the lake far away from 10-15ft or more depth. I have put our boat in slips/lifts with 4ft depth. This would have worked, but getting to the main part of the lake isn't possible because of surrounding depths. Because of this we couldn't use the boathouse, which is the main attraction of the listing and the reason we booked. In Ben’s defense he sent a message prior regarding lake depth. However, I feel in an effort to retain my rental, his message was worded carefully. It wasn't clear that our only option to enjoy the lake was to trailer our boat 15-20 mins away. As such, I was disappointed upon arriving and felt misled. The listing isn't blatantly dishonest, it’s just skewed too much on the positive. It shouldn't be necessary for the renter to read between the lines or deep into prior reviews. Accurate, clear, honest descriptions should be used to avoid disappointments.

Hubby's 65th birthday get-together

At first glance, the house looks small. But looks are deceiving! The kitchen is huge and well laid out and the table can accommodate 8 adults easily. The owners have thought of everything from dishwasher pods, coffee, filters, cream sugar to washer pods and even gray washcloths for washing off make up. There were plenty of white towels for bathing and even blue towels for the lake. All the light switches, knobs, etc were well marked so it made it easy without guessing what turned on what! We had 4 couples and everyone had plenty of room. The main bedroom had a half bath and the other 2 bedrooms upstairs had plenty of room with a really nice hall bath and newly renovated shower. There was a huge half bath and tub/shower room off the kitchen and laundry room. The shower had a rainfall shower, regular showerhead and there were body jets. I found it complicated to use somewhat the first time, but once I figured it out - it was great! Downstairs had 4 twin beds that worked well for one couple. The only downfall to the downstairs was there wasn't a bathroom, so they had to come upstairs during the night when necessary. The extra frig in the basement came in SO handy for overflow. There is plenty of seating and tables on the back deck and patio. Even a firepit with plenty of wood, although it was too hot to use. We loved the house and we all talked about coming back again, but in the fall when we could enjoy the outdoor area more. Thank you Ben and Lela!
