Back Forty Overlook-a secluded mountainside farmhouse at the edge of 40 acres.

This mountainside vista is where nature meets comfort in a private, quiet setting. Enjoy stunning views, explore nature trails, fish in the pond, or relax in the hot tub under the stars-all on the property. Large porches invite slow mornings with coffee or gather around the fire pit for s'mores. Located just minutes from Lake Guntersville with ample space for boat parking and a building with two 30 and 50 amp plugs for boat charging, or for 1 camper/RV to have water and electricity. All the comforts of home in this open concept farmhouse nestled in the foothills of the Appalachians where sweeping views evoke the rustic charm of the south-while curated artwork nod to the spirit of the Andes. Create memories with your family in this truly unique mountain farmhouse retreat that offers an experience for all ages. Minutes from Cathedral Caverns, Honeycomb, 15 minutes from Hampton Cove, and 20 minutes from Guntersville.
