Lake Tuscaloosa Waterfront Home--great for friends, families, and Bama parents!

Lake Tuscaloosa, Alabama--Waterfront, 3500+ square feet, fire pit, gazebo by the water, and serene views!
Just 20 minutes to campus!
Lovely 5 bedroom, 3 full bath, family home is waterfront at the end of a quiet, no-wake slough which opens to one of the largest areas of Lake Tuscaloosa. Bring your water toys & invite your friends & family for a wonderful lake vacation! Pier43 rents boats that can be reserved ahead of your visit. Check out Pier 43 on Lake Tuscaloosa for details.
Our private boat dock is just an easy walk, via the gradual, grassy slope, and gives easy access to the large body of water right at the end of the short slough. Your boat can be launched at the public boat launch, or at the local Marina, and then tied up at our pier. Our slough is a popular swimming area that is not too deep, and is perfect for your inflatables or stand up board.
The lakeside deck is well located for sunning and watching the kids play in the water--or relax with a glass of wine under our new lakeside gazebo.
The spacious covered decks at the house overlook the serene water views & invite lingering over dinner with a little music, great conversation, paddle fans, chirping crickets, & other lake sounds. Large charcoal grill on the lower patio, plus a small Charbroil electric grill to use on the kitchen deck.
Super popular for football week-ends, and graduation-it usually books early. Great accommodations for a family vacation at the lake, and just enjoy the easy living!
Plenty of room for everyone to spread out, or hang out together. Families love coming from afar, and enjoying a staycation together.
Our standard rates are set using dynamic pricing software, which are determined by local supply and demand. Please inquire with your specific dates and guest count to get the correct quote for your booking.
Different dates will likely show different rates. Please note that your booking is confirmed after payment and signed rental agreement have been completed. Trip insurance is available. NOTE: If you do instant booking for a Football weekend, there will be a $200 per night surcharge added to your reservation.
With a total of 5 bedrooms, the main level has a King bed in Master, plus 3 bedrooms with queen beds. The walk-out basement has another queen bedroom & bath plus a game room with pool table, game table, and TV area. Game room opens to large yard through french doors, a covered patio with seating, and gas fire pit, and lake views through french doors and bedroom windows. Five Bedrooms + 3 Baths allow for 10 adults.
Wonderful restaurants are also nearby if you get tired of cooking out! Bama parents love to stay when they come to visit their student, and there's room for extended family to come, too! We don't allow house or wedding parties, because we respect our quiet neighbors on the slough. We have tried to provide everything you could need, and our guests always love their time at our serene lake getaway.
The lake is very quiet at night, and we respect quiet hours from 9 pm to 9 am. This is a non-smoking property--inside and out. We enjoy the night sounds of the lake while visiting on the covered deck late into the night. The DR table is super fun for family game nights, too! The Lake House has Ring exterior floodlight cams for your peace of mind. Please NOTE: We are located in a quiet, residential, family neighborhood. Please drive slowly, as children and pets live in the neighborhood, and wild deer are abundant. You may see a doe with her fawn in our backyard, or deer crossing the roads at night.
Sorry, we don't allow pets--this is our own vacation home that we love--which we share with others when we can't be there. Please give a little info about your visit and let us know if you're coming to town for a special occasion. We'd love to share our recommendations for local favorites! It's our hope that you'll enjoy a 5 star vacation, & love the Lake House as much as our family does--so please let us know if you have any questions
We invite you to plan a staycation at The Lake House
on Lake Tuscaloosa, and make magical memories with
your family. You may want to come year after year.
Families are finding our Lake House to be the perfect
gathering spot for the whole family. Large, spacious,
and serene, with lots of room to spread out--catering to families and couples who will appreciate our vacation home and make memories like we do. Backyard is a very gradual grassy slope to the private dock and pier--and very easy to walk. Until confirmed, rates are subject to change, and dates remain open for other bookings. After the booking payment process is completed, please finalize & confirm your reservation electronically by signing the rental agreement and send a copy of the
guest's DL to sundaycruisellc@gmail.com

Graduation Stay
My Family booked the beautiful lake house to celebrate my sister’s graduation from UA (Roll Tide)! The check in process was seamless. Sarah was such a kind host and even had a graduation cake for my sister. So thoughtful and greatly appreciated. The house was very clean and well kept. Super spacious for our family of 8. We all had plenty of space to be together but also retreat and have our personal space. Our favorite part was enjoying our coffee on the porch first thing in the morning and listening to all the birds sing. Great spot to be close enough to campus but disconnected enough to have some tranquility. Can’t recommend enough!

This is a very nice property that is within good proximity to Tuscaloosa and the university. It is located in a pleasant and quiet community. The view of the lake is certainly an added bonus. We will certainly consider this property for trips to the area in the future.
