The Retreat with Wilson Dam view & Water Aces

This house is close to Wilson dam and is right on the water .This house is good for couples, business travelers, and families (with kids). This house had a fully equipped kitchen. A basement which can be enjoyed watching a nice movie in it and hangouts. House is located in really nice and quite neighborhood and is like 5 mins drive to downtown Florence and the best thing about this area is that is a combination of four small cities Florence, Muscle Shoals, Tuscumbia (birth place of Helen Keller) and Sheffield, also this area is famous for its music . Allot of nice area to visit around here. I am pretty sure you will enjoy your stay here.

The house with a million dollar view
The house was the perfect size for everyone to spread out and relax to take in the spectacular view all while having great space to gather. We especially enjoyed the 2 patios on the main level that our handicapped sister had easy access to. Rafi was so easy to work with, as we added extra days to our stay. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be back!

Holiday Retreat
Our 2nd stay at this beautiful home. We stayed last year and had could not wait to come back! This trip was as enjoyable as our last. The home is very large and fits our family get together well, the view is beyond gorgeous , the location is amazing, close to everything, and Rafi is the best host, very quick to respond to questions or needs. This home is a must if you are staying in Florence and want to be on the water. Highly recommend!

Magical place
Me and my friends been coming from chicago to this magical place few times a year for the last six years.We really enjoy the fishing ,realaxing and the wievs from this beutifull house..The neighborhood itselfs is very quite and friendly for morning or evening exercising or realaxing walks. Also we do really like the dining in downtaun of Florence which is only 8 min drive from the house.The house is very clean and cozy, different patios give great option if i want to take a break from my friends. Looking forward for my next stay there.

Just the spot
For our needs this was perfect. We were visiting our son at UNA and wanted a home with a pool, plenty of room and a view. This had all 3. I cooked all meals in the home. The kitchen had a large stove and oven and plenty of refrigerator and freezer space. The host was very responsive. The home was clean we had no problems there. We had concerns after reading some of the reviews but were happy with what the home provided us. We enjoyed time at the pool, meals cooked in the kitchen, meals and games at the dining room table, sitting on the patio, beautiful views from many rooms, walks in the neighborhood and a 15minute drive from campus allowing our son to stay with us.

Great view, lots of space, but disappointing.
First the good: The house is huge and has plenty of space to host a family reunion. The views out the windows are stunning, with lots of natural light. The neighborhood is absolutely wonderful, beautiful, and quiet. However, once you get past that, it's pretty disappointing. The pool was dirty and unsafe due to a missing main drain cap which is extremely dangerous, so we could not use it even if we wanted to spend an hour cleaning it up. We were hoping to be able to use the pool but could not. The kitchen was not cleaned well, with dirty fridge shelves and sticky substance on the handle. The counter surfaces were unclean. If you intend to cook, expect to go to the store to get what you need to cook, because the pots and pans are unsafe to use with peeling teflon, even the can opener was so rusty we were afraid to use it. We spent a good chunk of money and time just getting pots we needed to cook. The pictures of this listing show the pool and kitchen prominently. Probably the worst thing is that both were unusable in the condition they were in. We managed to clean up the kitchen enough to use it after buying what we needed. The windows were not clean and there were smears all over on the interior. Lots of dead flies and bugs around the windows all over the house that could easily have been vacuumed up but weren't. Fingernail and toenail clippings in the living room. Sadly the owner seems to be dealing with a mice problem, saw several and disposed of a dead one.

Amazing stay!
I am a frequent VRBO renter and this property was by far my favorite. Amazing views, sunset and sunrises were beautiful, the location was very quiet and had easy access to multiple restaurants, shopping, etc. The kitchen was laid out perfectly, the master was on the main level and separate from the 3 bedrooms on the top floor. The basement was a great hangout space. Rafi responded quickly and was very accommodating. Would highly recommend this home to couples or large family’s. We will definitely rent again!

Great location and view!
The pool area and river view didn't disappoint. The neighborhood is great as well. The house was a bit dated and some of the appliances in the kitchen didn't work exceptionally well (gas range and icemaker). The outside windows and upper patio area could use a power washing. Otherwise though, we were very happy with our stay. Some other reviews seem a bit picky about the cleanliness. It's a huge house and I'm sure getting it completely spotless between every guest is very difficult. We would most definitely stay here again if in the area.
