Serenity Cove-a unique waterfront home with canoe, kayak and fire pit!

This 4 bedroom, 2 bath one level home is located in the Wildlife Refuge on a private cove! The lake is your front yard! There are beautiful views from almost every room in the house. This house is located just off highway 72; 8 miles to Scottsboro and 5.6 miles to Goose Pond Colony.

The house has bedrooms 1 & 2 on one end of the house (bedroom has attached bathroom), and bedroom 3 & 4 are on the other end. The kitchen, dining and den area are all open ( and kind of have a 70s feel with a raised kitchen). *please note - bedroom 2 is semi private ).

There are floor to ceiling windows across the front of the house that provide for a view that last all day long! There is also a screened porch that spans the length of the house. It’s an ideal spot for taking in the views, relaxing with a book or watching the birds.
This serene place is ideal for families, fishermen, and a girls weekend.

There is also a large parking pad to accommodate vehicles and boats!

The space was clean and comfortable. I had reservations about a previous review which stated property smelled musty. We did not notice any odors. Kitchen is small but functional. We prepared a number of Thanksgiving dishes to take to a family gathering.

No time to list all the cool features. The photos say it all, but understate the scale & quality of the overall experience. Bring firewood & topwater gear & get your glamp on. This place is comfy, well-appointed, and the best kind of unique.

Down for a Tournament

Property was very accommodating. Clean with plenty of room. Very close to mink creek and Goose Pond. Parking a little limited if you have multiple boats. But over all good place to stay with beautiful view of small cove.

Lovely property, great stay

Serenity Cove is a quiet, comfortable home with all the amenities one would expect. While it isn't the most modern property, it is well appointed and everything works well. We brought a crock pot from home, but to our surprise, there was already one in the kitchen. There were ample dishes, cutlery, and cooking utensils to make our stay easy and homey. The bedrooms rooms are huge! Situated at either end of the house, you have a King and a Queen room, so the house sleeps at least eight adults. Do be aware, both bathrooms are on one end of the house, but it isn't huge, so it didn't present a problem. As someone mentioned in a previous review, there is a step up (about 3-4 inches) into both bathrooms and into the kitchen, so it may not be the most friendly for someone who has mobility challenges. We enjoyed using the gas grill, and brought wood for the fire pit, but didn't use it. A couple of tips, bring a blanket or two if you come in cooler weather, not because the heat doesn't work, but because the beds have thin bedspreads. I like the weight of a heavier quilt or comforter, so I am glad we thought to bring some. There is a basket of throw blankets in the living room, which was nice! Due to the cooler weather we didn't spend much time on the screened in porch, but it was nice and very spacious. Overall, Serenity Cove provided a great space for a chill family holiday gathering.

Peaceful

The house was very clean and well maintained. We absolutely loved the screened porch that stretches almost the full length of the house. The waterfront is a marshy area so the access to the water is limited to a small area but the owner provided canoe and kayak allows guests to get out into the cove. The bedrooms are large and the beds were very comfortable. Guests with mobility issues should be aware that there is a step-up into each of the two bathrooms. It was a quiet area with no close neighbor. We would stay again.
