1. Located on Lake Martin

It’s no big secret that Lake Martin is one of Alabama’s most popular getaways. In fact, Alabama’s largest man-made lake was recently featured in a Wall Street Journal journal article titled A Man-Made Lake in Alabama is Giving the Gulf Coast a Run for Its Money, which highlighted several passionate advocates of the lake, including Auburn head basketball coach Bruce Pearl.

“Alabama is home to a lot of beautiful lakes, but Lake Martin is one of the prettiest! Lake Martin is easily accessible from Birmingham, Montgomery and Atlanta—plus, it’s a very large lake with a variety of homes and condos, both old and new. There are so many wonderful restaurants on the water and accessible by boat, so once you get there you can leave the car behind. Lake Martin is the perfect place to relax and take a break from city life on the water!”
Hillary Weiss, Realtor, LAH Sotheby’s International Realty

In addition to being one of the cleanest lakes in the South, Lake Martin is home to Chimney Rock (a popular cliff-jumping spot) and a number of fabulous lakeside establishments, including:

SpringHouse — A fine dining experience offering a modern version of Southern classical cuisine, selected as Best Fine Dining in Alabama Magazine‘s 2023 Best of Bama awards.
The Landing at Parker Creek — A unique dining experience with several outdoor dining pavilions and 36 boat slips, open to anyone traveling by boat or car. The Landing was founded by Herb Winches, a popular sports anchor in Birmingham for more than a decade.
Chuck’s Marina — A popular lakeside establishment offering food, drinks, live music and more.
Bluff’s Daiquiri Bar at Harbor Point Marina — Located near the center of Lake Martin, this beloved floating daiquiri bar has the perfect drinks to cool off during your stay on the lake.
Kowaliga Restaurant — This iconic Lake Martin restaurant has been operating since 1953, offering Southern comfort food made with local seasonal ingredients.

2. Expansive, panoramic views of Lake Martin

A round living room with large windows, offering panoramic views of the lake.
A sunroom that opens onto a patio with breathtaking views of both the lake and the sky (perfect for sunset and sunrise!)
A wall of windows intimately connects the primary suite with the water.
An observation bedroom in the guest wing provides a 360-degree view of the lake and private beach.

3. Plenty of space for guests

Pop quiz: What’s the one thing better than spending a weekend relaxing at the lake? Answer: Spending a weekend relaxing at the lake with friends!
