Newly Renovated-Family House on Lake Mitchell~4 Bedroom~ON the water with a DOCK
Guest rating: 5.0 / 5
Overview
Newly Renovated–Family House on Lake Mitchell is a remodeled 4-bedroom vacation home in Clanton, set directly on the water with its own dock and sunset views. Originally built in the 1960s, it has been reimagined inside and out with brand-new furnishings, fresh paint, and all-new beds. The property is smoke-free and set up for a quiet, relaxing lake getaway rather than events or parties.
Bedrooms & sleeping setup
The home is arranged for larger groups with 2 king beds, 1 queen bed, a bunk room with a trundle (5 twin beds total), and a sleeper sofa. A crib/Pack ’n Play is available if needed (bring your own sheet). Guests should note that, consistent with the home’s age, some floors may be uneven though still easy to walk on.
Kitchen, laundry & in-home amenities
A brand-new full kitchen includes a refrigerator, stove/oven, dishwasher, microwave, Keurig coffee maker, toaster, blender, and a wine cooler, and is stocked with cookware and tableware for full meals. Cable TV, air conditioning, and heating are provided. Practical extras include a washer/dryer, iron/ironing board, and starter supplies such as paper towels, dish soap, and laundry detergent.
Outdoor features & lake access
Guests can relax on the balcony, cook outside using the charcoal grill (charcoal not provided), and access Lake Mitchell directly from the private dock. Swimming and dock use are at your own risk; the home does not provide life vests or floats. The property is near Lay Lake Dam, where current can be swift when turbines are on—checking the turbine schedule is recommended.
Location & nearby options
The home is about 12 minutes from I-65, making it a convenient lake base while still feeling remote and unplugged. Dining in and around Clanton includes Hickory Chip (~10.3 km), Shoney’s (~14.4 km), Valle Grande Mexican Grill of Clanton (~16.7 km), and more. For air travel, Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport is ~71.5 km away and Montgomery Regional Airport is ~73.3 km away; local points of interest mentioned in the area include Clanton Golf and Country Club, Ozan Winery and Cellars, and Peach Park.
Best for
This lakefront house is best for families or multi-family groups who want direct water access, a dock, and a large sleeping setup (including a dedicated bunk room and sleeper sofa). It also suits travelers who prefer a quiet, screen-light stay, since there is no Wi‑Fi and house rules prohibit parties and late-night noise.
Travel tips
Plan to drive: the home is about 12 minutes from I‑65 and offers free parking for up to three vehicles. If you intend to swim, bring your own life vests/floats and check the Lay Lake Dam turbine schedule because currents can be swift when turbines are running. Pack for limited connectivity (no Wi‑Fi) and note that exterior security cameras monitor entrances, driveway, and backyard during stays.
