I took my boys here for a 3 day getaway, We had an amazing time fishing, boating, kayaking, and swimming. We saw all kinds of wildlife including a bald eagle, deer., turtles, hawks, geese, and ducks and caught some good catfish.. The house was very clean and nice and cool inside when we needed a break from the heat. The beds were comfy. It is close to Huntsville so we took a trip the Space Museum which was really cool. Tom was a great host and we look forward to coming back here many times.
