There's lots to do and see!

Guntersville Lake is one of the largest lakes in the Southeast. The lake is comprised of 69,000 acres with over 960 miles of shoreline surrounded by the Appalachian foothills.

Boating  - The lodge has two visitor T-docks along the Lodge Water front that are separate from the Marina area. Trailer parking is available.   110 V power access is available.  Shore power available when boaters supply their own converter.  

Golf  -  There are eight prestigious golf courses nearby.  Spend a relaxing day of golf and them come back home for a great evening of entertainment, drinks, dinner or just plain laying about by the large pool.

Hiking - Whether along the water front or on the many State Park Trails, you will be rewarded with a nature hike you will long remember for its beauty and calm.  The Lodge staff can provide you more information about hiking and sight seeing in the area.

Fishing -  Guntersville is nationally known for Bass Fishing.  We can arrange for a professional guide and his boat to provide you an exceptional day of sports fishing.  You can bring your own boat and launch at the Marina boat ramp.  Fishing is excellent all year long with the best spots in thousands of small coves and inlets found along the lake

Space & Rocket Center  - only 45 minutes away - NASA's Official Visitor Information Center for Marshall Space Flight Center. The U.S. Space & Rocket Center is recognized as one of the most comprehensive U.S. manned space flight hardware museums in the world; including Spacedome Theater, Rocket Park, Shuttle Park and NASA's Educator Resource Center. Here visitors may trace the evolution of humankind's ventures into space and watch as tomorrow's potential engineers, scientists and astronauts train in one of the Space Camp or Aviation Challenge Programs.

Cathedral Caverns  -  20 minutes from Covenant Cove, the Caverns entrance opening measures 128 feet wide and 25 feet tall.  Guided tours take you along the wide, wheel chair accessible walkways deep into the interior. Inside the cavern, stalagmites, stalactites and the World's largest stalagmite, called Goliath, that reaches the ceiling of the cave some 45 feet above... a cool treat for the kids! In 1995, Cathedral Caverns provided the cave settings for the Disney Studios film "Tom & Huck".  Archaeological excavations at the mouth of Cathedral Caverns have indicated occupation by Native Americans 2,000 years ago, and perhaps as early as 8000 B.C.
