Cozy Bear Paradise on Weiss Lake in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains

One fall afternoon my husband and I sat on the ground looking at the reflection of the autumn leaves on the water and I knew we had found our little piece of paradise. Over the years children and grandchildren have experienced the joy of having a lakehouse. Swimming, tubing, roasting marshmallows, fishing and much much more. The area seems to have something for everyone - historical sites, rock climbing, waterfalls, crappie capitol of the world, shops to browse, Alabama Band fan club, artisan area, night sky for stargazing and the list goes on. Our three story home has room to spread out, a screened porch that makes you feel like being in a treehouse and a calm peaceful feeling. Whether you like to curl up and read a good book, stay on the go every minute or somewhere in between this place will suit your needs. We love our place but we don't get to use it as often as we did. So we decided to let others enjoy it while we are not there. While there are bears in the area it is unlikely that you will see one outside. Inside on the other hand is a different story.

There is a security camera on the corner of the house facing the driveway. The purpose of the camera is strictly for security.

Several people have asked if we have our own dock. Yes we do. It is the cover photo. If you rent from us, there are three docks and ours is the one in the middle.

A dream experience
Everything was spotless and even more beautiful than the photos portray. The decor is Soo charming- really sets the mood for a wonderful experience. There were thoughtful little baskets containing treats and incidentals in strategic places. The view! The fire pit! The dock! Deer, fish, egrets, herons and rustling leaves create a wonderful mood. Can't thank you enough for everything. Our family drive from Atlanta and Florida to share a magical experience.

The House Of Tranquility
What a wonderful place for our three generations to meet and thoroughly enjoy being together. This retreat has everything you could possibly want inside and out! We were so impressed with the lift beside the front porch for lifting all our items from our cars to the main floor. It has a fully stocked kitchen, just bring your own food. There are several places outside where there are benches and swings to watch the sun come up or go down. So peaceful ! This is the perfect place for you to relax and enjoy being back to nature. Our host Tamara, did a splendid job and answered every question we had. We really felt at home at Cozy Bear Paradise.

Family vacation
Had a great time with family. The place was very clean and very well stocked with everything you would need. It even has a waffle maker which we used a lot! The pool table and shuffle board were an added bonus! Enjoyed those for night time fun! The screened porch was so quiet and relaxing. Enjoyed sitting on the dock which was so peaceful and quiet. We had a great time!

What a "beary" cute house! The bed upstairs in the master was so comfy! I love that all the bathrooms had baskets with toiletries and there was a snack basket with bug bracelets. Very thoughtful! Also, there were so many appliances and cookware in the kitchen. We loved the dock as well even though we caught the tiniest fish in the lake. We had a great time relaxing and playing games in the basement as well! We unfortunately had to leave in in-laws there for the last day as there was a death in the family but we definitely didn't want to leave. Thanks for sharing the Cozy Bear with us!!
