Smith Lake Rentals reviews in Arley, Alabama

“The location and accessibility to the water and boat ramp are great! The home is very cozy. It is an older home but the condition is good! We enjoyed our time there!”

“Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing stay. While the inside of the home was clean upon arrival and we enjoyed the dock, we experienced several significant issues. One of our children fell through a rotting section of the railing while walking to the dock, which was a serious safety concern. We almost had an electrical fire that required us to shut off the A/C and call the fire department. We had a house full of kids and were left without A/C, and the property manager was extremely unhelpful throughout the situation. We also found several small, thankfully dead, spiders in the master bedroom sheets, none of the outdoor TVs worked and had issues with hot water. The outdoor porches and deck were also very dirty, with leaves, dust, and cobwebs throughout. We understand the listing states there are no smoke or carbon monoxide detectors, but after experiencing a close call with an electrical fire, we found that particularly concerning. Overall, the property needs better maintenance.”

“We love staying at this beautiful lake home. It is spacious for the whole family and the view is superb!”

“This home is amazing! The lake view and lake access can't be beat! This was the perfect place for a family trip! There was plenty of room for all of us. The kids had a blast in the pool and jumping in the lake!”

“Amazing location and gorgeous views of the lake! Spacious home with perfect layout for large groups/families to spread out! Great deck with seating for games/dinner! Kitchen island is updated and has ample space! A/C works very well! Wonderful having access to private dock and jet ski ramps. Home could use some TLC. Everything is worn-sofa cover and pillows with several holes. Cob webs all over, could use fresh paint, better labeling for light/fan usage, maintenance of landscaping-which was taking over walkways in some areas. Kitchen not well organized- for example, one cabinet is filled with tons of tupperware lids and no container bottoms. Cluttered cabinets and closets with odds and ends. Coffee station was dirty and not wiped down/cleaned, however the new Keurig was a plus! Cleaners ran late and floors were wet throughout and not actually clean-they did not ask our name-just handed us the key! Downstairs door does not lock. With a little love, this home could be FABULOUS!!!”
