Days Inn by Wyndham Muscle Shoals Florence
The room was perfect but our experience with the night manager was exceptional. She was so helpful and kind. I'm sorry, I didn't catch her name. Please let her know how much we appreciate her.

Creekside Cabin Getaway - Only 10 Miles from Downtown Florence
The cabin is just an absolute gem! There were some minor issues (for example: wasp nest in/under porch lanterns, water heater too small to fill tub with warm water, etc.) but not enough to rate the cabin a 4-star. We would absolutely stay again without question. Love it.

Stenson Hollow Lake Condo
Lovely view, went by myself, firts night pretty rainy, cozy, comfy at the condo, the sunset and dawn are just stuning, very peaceful and less than 15 min away from shopping centers and good food places. I'd definitely be back and for a longer stay.

169 PONTOON BOAT AVAILABLE/ RIGHT OVER THE LAKE!
A little worn down, but certainly worked for us. Only thing we should have paid more attention to was only the one bathroom.
