      Affordable Lakefront Home. Nearby Guntersville Welcome Snowbirds Reduced Rates

      If you're looking for a getaway to go fishing, hunting, kayaking or just to relax, then welcome to Papas Dream lakehouse in Stevenson Alabama. It has room for up to 6 with two bedrooms with full size beds, two bedrooms with twin beds, 2 bathrooms, kitchen with gas stove and microwave, dining room, two screened in porches that overlook the water. Our home is right on the water and a 30 second drive from nearest boat dock. If you're kayaking you can put in behind the house, Our back yard is TVA owned property. Any maintenance along the bank is TVA responsibility. There is a front and back porch. Grill out and watch the sunset then relax in the outdoor patio in front of the fire pit. Three Wall unit air conditioners and three gas wall heaters. Currently, streaming is available through Fubo. Hughesnet is only internet available in our area, it can be slow. We're constantly working to update this home to make it what we envision it to be. This home started out as a much older mobile home, previous owners added onto it for years. It's rustic, but it's comfortable and cozy. It needs some repairs and updates and we are working on all, it’s a slow process unless you win the lottery😀. Feel free to contact me with any specific questions. Please note that our neighbors are permanent residents and have dogs that roam free and often visit the property so if you plan on bringing a pet of your own be mindful of this. And please be respectful of the neighbors late at night. This is greatly appreciated.
      Please read details in photos. Once you turn off of highway 117 it’ll take about 10 minutes to arrive at our place. You’ll also go past Coon Gulf-Glawson. Nearest grocery stores are about 15 minutes away along with places to eat. Mud creek bbq is about 30 minutes away. Russell cave national monument is in Bridgeport just a short drive out. Unclaimed baggage center close by in Scottsboro Alabama. Fishing in south coon is top notch but if you wish to fish In Guntersville its about 40 minute boat ride. We are connected to the Guntersville lake. Please see our maps.

      Oh well
      We never actually made it to Alabama as we got really sick over Christmas, so the host got a really nice bonus and super clean renters, lol. I did have to add a day before we got sick and the host was very helpful then but did not speak to me after I told her we could not make it. Oh well, life happens.

      Cool Thanksgiving Trip
      My family moved from Minnesota to Florida in 2021. We missed the cool crisp air, fall colors and all the beautiful experiences of the Midwest in the fall. We chose Alabama because mother nature isn't as abusive there in November but we got a taste of back home. Beautiful sunrise and set. Woods to roam, bonfires with great conversations and smores for the littles as we all reflected on the beauty and experience of each day. Communication from Amy was immediate and always helpful. You can tell she put so much energy in decorating and making this cabin feel like a home away from home. We will be back!

      Fish Camp
      Property description is accurate. Coffee pot needs to be replaced. The heat used on the property is ventless gas wall heaters so if you don’t know how to ignite it I would suggest posting instructions on the property. Other than that this is great place to stay for a fishing trip! Secluded and nice and quiet.
