Unique home on the waters edge with no stairs to lake & pontoon rental option

Get away from the rush of life and stay a couple nights at Villa Lago on Smith Lake. We have year round deep water with easy access to dock/water with no stairs. We are located between Trident Marina and Smith Lake Dam in Cullman County.

Be surrounded by beautiful sunrises, nighttime fires and great fishing right off the dock. We have 3 lots that form a private little cove with a large waterfall. So, no immediate neighbors to the left or right. We offer our guests 2300 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, open spacious areas including a kitchen, dining area and living room.
Enjoy a large veranda with comfortable seating, an x-large green egg for grilling your favorite steak or baking a pizza, and an outdoor fireplace for chilly nights. You can sit outside and listen to the relaxing waterfall, chill with a book or play some good music to get you in the lake mood. Oh and did I mention no stairs to the lake!

The home is well equipped with your basic needs including lake needs such as towels, water floats, fishing poles, cooler, corn hole. There is a very large parking area that can easily accommodate multiple vehicles and vehicle with a boat trailer. It would make an ideal rental for fishing tournaments. We may also make a boat slip available if requested prior to arrival.

OWNERS LIVE ON PREMISES. The homes are separated by an elevator that remains locked while we have guests. There are separate entrances and parking. You will have the entire lower level home and lower level grounds and dock to yourself. A pontoon boat with a fabulous sound system is available for rent to Villa Lago guests only (reserve ahead). Why is it convenient to have owners on premises? Because we can answer all your questions, immediately address any issues that may come up, rent the boat, and you can borrow a cup of sugar or any last minute item you forgot to bring. Our interaction is completely at your preference.

Our intention is to share this beautiful lake with guests who will love it as much as we do. Life is about creating memories and we hope you will create some great ones here at Villa Lago.

NOTE: There are high walls and high rock ledges without rails-see photos. Outdoor security cameras monitor entrances.

A great place with awesome hosts
I cannot say enough about this choice for a lake get-a-way. First off, the hosts are just the nicest people and communication was great from weeks out to during the trip. We walked in to find a bottle of wine (the host asked white or red earlier in the week) with a spread of cheese and crackers. Plus, I had inquired about ice as they are pretty far from a store, and our freezer was loaded with enough ice for mixed and frozen drinks. Also, prior to arriving we were informed that the house is a bit from a full grocery store, plus the area is a dry county, so just plan accordingly. We did forget italian dressing for salad, but as they were headed to the store, they asked if we needed anything and the brought us back the dressing needed. It was a big benefit having them on locations. The house itself is just great with a good kitchen, plenty of the items you'll need, and comfortable beds. We also did rent their pontoon boat for the day which was so worth it! The best thing about their location is that since you are in a little cove, swimming off the dock was extremely enjoyable as there were less waves and no boats to worry about. Some of the other rentals are right in the main areas and I would worry about floating in the water like we did here. If you are looking for a house on Smith Lake, don't hesitate on this one. We are definitely going back!

Beautiful property and grounds
Such a beautiful place. The hosts do everything to make it very nice for their guests…lots of extra touches that don’t happen elsewhere (fresh-baked bread, welcome basket, nice toiletries, etc). The yard is gorgeous. Immaculately kept and so many pleasant seating areas near fires. The kids enjoyed the kayaks and jumping rock. The living areas are all bright, new and fresh. We cook a lot, and I was so appreciative that the kitchen had good Calphalon pans and nice knives. Wonderful place. Great parking, especially for a boat. Would stay again
