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 under the lakeside gazebo.
The spacious covered decks at the house overlook the serene water views. Have dinner with a little music and great conversation. We have a gas grill on the lower patio.
Popular for football week-ends and graduations. 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 to enjoy 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.
*If you want to request an early check in please send us a message a week prior to arrival. We will charge an extra fee upon request only if we are able to do so. Please message through this website for that and we will respond.
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, TV area and a pull out sofa. Game room opens to a large yard through french doors. A covered patio with seating, fire pit, and lake views. Five Bedrooms + 3 Baths allow for 10 adults.
**We provide a starter roll of toilet paper in each bathroom. If you need more toilet paper make sure you bring extra! **We provide travel size hair and body wash. If you need more toiletries please pack with you! There are restaurants nearby if you get tired of cooking. Bama parents love to stay when they come to visit their student, and there's room for extended family to come, too! We do not 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. The DR table is super fun for family game nights, too! The Lake House has Ring exterior floodlight cams for your peace of mind. 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 memories.
Families are finding our Lake House to be the perfect
gathering spot for everyone. Lots of room to spread out--catering to families and couples who will appreciate our vacation home 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

Great house!
We enjoyed the house and would stay there again if we needed the space. The beds were very comfortable! And we had one to spare! The games and the large gathering table were exactly what our family needed the first night! Our friend came over on his pontoon boat and had no trouble getting us from the dock. The house is lovely. I had one minor problem and the owners were so quick and responsive to take care of it. My only complaint was I couldn’t stay longer! Thank you!

Lots of room
We enjoyed our stay here quite a bit. We used all five bedrooms and were pleased that there was plenty of seating both inside and outside as well as adequate dishes/cutlery, etc. In fact, this was the best stocked kitchen I've ever experienced at a VRBO. You'll need to take toilet paper and soap with you. There are lots of beach towels and bath towels, wash cloths, etc. already there. The dock was really nice also: covered and with lots of seating. We set off the smoke alarm while we were cooking and the owner was very helpful in letting the fire department know they didn't need to come. Great experience!

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!
