This is our second stay at Central Perk and we would do it again. Rating is 4.5/5 stars. There are a few items that need to be replaced like the outdoor grill and it is likely time for a power wash, blow off debris, etc. a little refresh is all. Thanks!

An Unforgettable Family Getaway at Smith Lake

Our recent stay at this lake house on Smith Lake was nothing short of perfect! From the moment we arrived, it felt like a home away from home. The house was cozy, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing family getaway. The clear, sparkling waters of the lake were incredible. We spent hours paddle boarding, swimming, and lounging on the Lillypad, which quickly became the kids’ favorite spot! We also rented a boat for the day, giving us the chance to explore the lake, fish, and enjoy the scenic views from every angle. Evenings were just as special, filled with family game nights and unwinding on the porch, watching the sunset over the water. The atmosphere was so peaceful—exactly what we needed to recharge. This trip was the perfect combination of adventure and relaxation. Whether on the lake or gathered around the living room, we made memories that will last a lifetime. If you’re looking for a place to disconnect and reconnect with your loved ones, I highly recommend staying here! We can’t wait to return!

Labor Day weekend

Just wanted to note a few items about our stay. We brought food to grilled for the entire stay and found out the grill was not operational the entire bottom was rusted out and laying on the bottom of the grill body. Not sure why someone hadn't walked the property and check out everything because by the look of it and that it had never been cleaned it should have been corrected ahead of time. I had to travel 40 minutes to Walmart and pick up a grill to cook. It you are older please do not walk down the railroad ties on the side of the house. They are very slippery and we have 2 people fall and they are in their 30's. They are lucky they didn't get hurt and in one of the bathrooms the trash was not taking out and it was full of women's sanitary products with was somewhat gross not knowing how long they had been there.

Disappointed

This property should require a more complete location description including the almost 2 mile pot hole-filled, dusty gravel road leading to the house. The house was furnished well, comfortable and overall clean, except for inside the microwave. The dishwasher did not function properly at first so we hand-washed dishes for the first couple of days, but property mgmt came out and fixed the problem. The house had nice TVs on each of the 3 levels, but we could only figure out how to use 1 (main level). We had planned on having 6 adults in our party but fortunately, it was only my wife and I along with our 2 dogs. Guests should be notified that there are no decent grocery stores or restaurants convenient to this location! As a result, we had to drive to Cullman (50 mile round trip) to acquire groceries for the week stay. In conclusion, the house is nice but there has to be more accurate disclosure about location and amenities. As a result, we left on the 4th day of our 7 day reservation.

Luxury on the Lake

This house is beautifully done with a spectacular water view. The kitchen has everything you need, the screened porch was wonderful and relaxing and all bedrooms and living areas were nicely furnished and decorated. It's great for a family gathering or when you just want to unplug completely. We ventured out and rented a boat nearby and spent one day just enjoying the lake. The one thing you need to know is this house is quite far from everything and the roads to get there are not paved with deep holes. Gather your supplies in advance and plan to stay put and just enjoy the lake!

Beautiful Home, Remote Location

The house was ideal for our family Christmas gathering! Extremely comfortable, very well appointed with well supplied kitchen. We regretted not being allowed to use the fireplace and were surprised how remote the location was. Over the river, thru the woods and down a half dozen county roads!
