Nice home, very welcoming, beds very comfortable. Three refrigerators made it easy for the 4 couple to keep all beverages and food secure.

House is amazing. Best stocked rental I’ve seen. Host was great and checked in to see if we needed anything. The dock is the perfect spot to spend the afternoon and the screened in porch is perfect.

This was a ladies’ weekend stay and the house provided an excellent centralized gathering space along with amenities galore! Plenty of towels, board games, pots, pans, blankets, pillows! You name it, the house has it. While the gathering spaces are lovely, there is also plenty of space for escaping the group and having quiet alone time.

Our family of 9 needed a quiet getaway to relax and enjoy family time. Idle Days was the perfect place. The home was beautiful and spacious with lots of space to either get together or retreat away for some quiet time. The kitchen was by far one of the best stocked we’ve ever seen. Tracey was always available to answer any questions and offer any pointers. I highly recommend this beautiful getaway.

Could not have asked for anything better. Beds were amazing. Plenty of room for a large group. Kitchen was fully stocked.

The accommodations were great for multiple couples. The steepness of the stairs to the dock was not well suited for older couples. The view was outstanding.

This property did not disappoint. It is as beautiful in person as it is in the pics. We have never stayed in a property that had as many amenities as this one. The kitchen is very well stocked and if you forget a spice or any kitchen essentials no problem cause Tracey has it covered. The beds were very comfy. The view of the lake is stunning, and we had our morning coffee out on the deck. We loved the boat dock; our guys fished and enjoyed the Kayaks every day. Tracey was very attentive and helped with anything needed. We will most definitely stay here again. If a relaxing, worry free Vaca is what you are looking for then look no further. I give this property and its owners 5 stars.

Very nice home and location. Fantastic Lake Views. Family voted this the best location and view of anywhere we have stayed so far on many other lakes. This was our first family trip to Smith Lake.

We stayed here for a weekend and it was perfect. We loved the screened in porch and the rooftop deck on the boathouse. The kayaks were a big hit and the cove is a perfect spot to safely use them. Kitchen had everything we needed. Great place!

This house was PERFECTION! From the very well stocked kitchen, to the super comfy beds, we couldn't have asked for a more fabulous place to relax & unwind. The view was gorgeous, and the icing on the amazing vacation cake was Tracey, the owner! She was lightning fast in her response time to any questions we had, and made us feel very welcome. We cannot wait to come back!!!

The house was nice, very clean and well equipped (best we’ve see in a rental). We had everything we needed. The cove was quite and great for swimming. Beautiful view of the lake and sunrise! The owner was very responsive, helpful and quickly answered any questions.

Great view of the lake and the house was very clean. The kitchen has everything you needed.

This house can handle 14 people with ease. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is set up for serious cooks and diners, the porches offer a wide and beautiful view, and the double-decker dock is an endless source of recreation. Tracey is an excellent host, very quick to anticipate and respond to questions. Prepare to relax.

Wonderful place ! Owner great to work with.

What a fantastic clean and comfortable lake home for our family of 13, six adults and seven grandkids. Plenty of rooms and room for everyone with so much useable living space outside. Huge Upper deck, a middle deck, and a superb floating dock with two deck areas, one upper deck for jumping off into the lake and one at lake level for all the water toys. The home comes with a very large lily pad island and two kayaks and two rentable paddle boards. We rented a pontoon boat from a company at Duncan Bridge Marina which is only about six miles (15 minutes) from the home by water and about 25 minutes by car. The location is ideal for skiing and towing water sports all within sight of the home and without a lot of activity during the week for our stay. We plan to return next year, so wait until we get our reservation in and then you should reserve a stay too! You will not be disappointed.

This home has everything you could want for a week on the lake. The kitchen is well supplied with cooking pots, pans, bowls, etc. the beds are comfortable and the pier is perfect to lounge around and enjoy the lake.

Tracey is wonderful! House is great for a large group. The views are fabulous.

The facility was absolutely beautiful. As pretty as the pictures even better. Very quiet restful area with an unbelievable view of the lake from a wonderful screen porch. Amenities were outstanding. The owner was very accommodating. We loved this place and plan to attend next year.

Idle Days is a beautiful lake house with everything you could need provided for you. The decor and feel of this home is warm and welcoming with the gorgeous Smith Lake spread out in front of you. We visited the US Rocket & Space Center in Huntsville and Rickwood Caverns. Both were great day adventures, well worth the drive. Hanging on the dock, fishing and kayaking were the best. BBQ and banana pudding from Sons of Arley Store made the perfect final dinner. Hope to visit again soon.

Our women's group had an amazing time at this beautiful home. Everything we needed was provided. The beds were quite comfortable and we enjoyed hanging out on the dock, the decks, and the screened-in porch. It was peaceful and the perfect place our group to rest and be renewed. We hope to come back again!

First of all we thought since the description mentioned a 1/4 mile driveway. So I assumed it was more secluded or at least private. Well it's not. There is houses on both sides within a few feet. So there was a noise complaint, that we were playing too loud. Second of all we had 2 grown kids that stopped by for a few minutes and the owner was trying to cancel our stay unless we were back to occupancy level. Then washing machine didn't work, the maintenance guy had come turn the knobs to get it to work. So obviously they have been aware that the washer needs to be replaced. Since he and the owner said u have to play with settings on it since won't work sometimes. Thirdly I could b wrong but I thought when being recorded inside or outside you were supposed to first be made aware of it. It wasn't until they thought we had too many guest was I made aware that we were being monitored 24/7.The home and dock was lovely in and of itself.

This wa any far the best house we have ever stayed in . Had all amenities and the host was very nice and tentative to our needs. I have never seen a vacation rental well equipped and stocked . Will return for sure

We had such a great time. 🤗 The hubbies got to play and fish, while us wifies got to relax with vino. This home is so roomy, relaxing and cozy. Beautiful views. Wish we could’ve stayed longer.

This is the third time we have stayed at Idle Days and it feels like coming home. The house is immaculate and tastefully decorated and accommodated our family of 10 which included a baby, a toddler, 2 teenagers and 3 couples with ease. Everyone had space. The views from this house are unreal! The paddle boards were a nice addition, along with kayaks and Lilly pad. We brought our boat, and when not fishing hung around the dock most of the time. The owner is easy to contact and does everything possible to make the stay enjoyable. She has thought of everything—extra fridge for drinks, tons of board games for the kids, lots of life jackets, luxury bedding, and kitchen utensils galore! We have stayed at other rentals, but none compare to Idle Days. 5 stars! We just returned from our trip and are already trying to coordinate family plans for our next trip!

Four ladies came here for a reunion weekend, and it was the perfect spot! The view is spectacular! The house was amazing and was furnished with everything that we could possibly want. We all want to come back and bring more family next time. Thank you, Tracy, for such a lovely place to visit!

Great experience and wonderful house. The owner was easy to contact and made sure we had all we needed. The location was serene and the area was well kept.
