Holiday rentals with a kayak in DeKalb County

This was the perfect stay! The home was well appointed, and all the “community” amenities kept us busy! We really felt like we were at a resort when laying by the pool overlooking the lake. I highly recommend Magnolia Overlook. There was even a wedding at the beautiful “Main House” and we would have been none the wiser if Dave hadn’t given a heads up, they were very respectful! We will be back.

This was a great place to stay for a weekend peaceful nature filled get away. They provide such wonderful amenities and activities. They have thought through every detail to make it all nicely come together.

The place was magnificent! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Great place to stay and very clean. It is kinda out in the middle of nowhere we felt like as far as a town to make a run to get something but we had mostly everything before getting there. We stayed for the event going on at Indian Mountain Atv Park which is about 35 min out so parking was a little tight for 3 trucks and trailers but owners were plenty helpful in letting us use the backyard as well. Overall no complaints.

Enjoyed our stay at this relaxing lake house! Really enjoyed the hot tub and amenities at this location. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city which was nice. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat this is a great place to stay.

We had a great time at the lake house. We could easily spread out. The two dining areas were great for the kids. We enjoyed the hammocks and the kayaks. The host was very friendly and responsive.

Our large family of 11 adults plus 12 children all agreed that this was the best house we have ever rented. It accommodated us beautifully. The bunk room was a dream come true for all the cousins (children). The lot was great and had easy access to the lake. The kitchen was huge and very well equipped and the living space was wonderful and we never felt the least bit crowded. I don’t know how our stay could have been improved. Thanks so much!

We had such a relaxing and fun weekend away! The view is GORGEOUS and the cottage is as cute as can be. Angela is a wonderful host, and we can’t wait to return!

The cabin was perfect for our family Christmas getaway!! The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare great meals. The location is secluded but still close enough to get to stores if you forget something and there is a lot of amazing hiking within a short drive of the cabin. Misti was an amazing host and super proactive in communications and everything was very clear. I would highly recommend! And they decorated for Christmas (even with a tree) so we felt right at home!

My husband and I came here for our 7 year anniversary. It was lovely and peaceful. I love the imperfections of the old cottage and its cleanliness. The hot tub, kayaks, and views are lovely The kitchen was adequately stocked and beds were clean and comfy. Shower was large and hot and the washer and dryer were very helpful! The house was stocked with everything needed. We will definitely be back. The town of Mentone was just down the road and we loved the areas. There was even a gas station at the end of the street that was very convenient as well! No regrets! Just a lovely vibe and great getaway destination!

Enjoyed my stay. working in the area, I would stay again.

Really enjoyed our stay at Lazy River Cottage! Home was clean and orderly and exactly as described with plenty of room for our party of 5. We don't eat out much and prefer to cook our meals at the home so the full kitchen was much appreciated. Making use of the kayaks was a ton of fun. DeSoto Falls hiking trails and picnic area were easily accessible by a very short walk. This was a great home base to explore Mentone and Little River Canyon. 100% would book it again. Thanks so much for a great stay!

Stunning views. Extremely peaceful. Loved our 2 night stay.

Lots of space for our family get together. Prime location to get to area attractions (Mentone, hiking, swimming spots). Well equipped kitchens in both cabins. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels. We particularly enjoyed the screened porches. There were kids games and puzzles for inside fun as well as paddle boards and floats for water fun.

Kasey was amazing! We had an unexpected last minute change of plans and Kasey was immediately available and very helpful. The place was just as described, very clean, ample parking, and had lots of extras! The temperature was in the 50s so we didn’t anticipate the use of the on-site canoe, but to our surprise, our children were in it for hours! They even had a large selection of life vests that accommodated all of our children ranging in age from 8 to 18. No complaints at all from our stay.

We stayed in one of the 2 bed 1.5 bath cabins. It was clean, well stocked, and had a beautiful view of the lake. I loved drinking coffee on the porch. The owners were very friendly and accommodating as they live in one of the houses on the lake. Everything was immaculate. We all enjoyed the paddle boats and the kayaks. The geese were a bit territorial due to nesting, but other than avoiding them, walking around the lake was great. The cabin was a little tight for 5 adults but it is great for a family. I wouldn’t have chosen any other location.

Rachel's place was great we had a party of 7 and had plenty of room Very rustic. The kitchen was not as big as it looked in the pictures but she had everything you needed to do any cooking also made sure we had a crockpot. Great view of the lake. She was very responsive when I had a question. It could use a little TLC especially on the decks. If you like old rustic charm this is for you. The decks are huge and a fire pit but we didn't get to enjoy them as much as we wanted to because it rained almost everyday we were there. When in the area you need to try Southern Harvest Restaurant in the Lookout Mountain area near Fort Payne

We enjoyed our stay here, the cabin and screened in porch with fireplaces are very cozy and it was nice being next to the river. It was too cold for kayaking but it would be fun to come back in warmer weather. The kitchen was fully stocked for cooking. The Wifi was a little slow, it's good enough for internet browsing and low quality video streaming. I hope we can come back some time during the summer, I'd love to see it with leaves on the trees! Thanks so much!

Great find for a group/larger family. Comfortable, convenient. Very peaceful grounds. Friendly, responsive hosts.
