3 Bedroom Apartment in Chelsea
PLEASE CLICK ON THIS PAGE TO OPEN IT AND READ THE DESCRIPTION....
You don't have to sacrifice tranquility and beauty for convenience. Meadow Lake Suite is relaxing, private, and cozy, with a picturesque meadow, stream and fishing lake just a few steps out the door. Nearby are parks, a splashpad in summer, restaurants, and shops. It's the perfect accommodation for couples, small families, seniors, solo adventurers, and business travelers. While the owners live in the home upstairs, guests have the roomy basement suite all to themselves.
This is a private and restful two/three-bedroom, ground-level/walkout basement apartment suite that features easy access parking, its own entrance, roomy master bedroom with a queen bed, closet, and desk, smaller separate bedroom area with a bunk bed, large bathroom with walk-in shower, kitchenette area with a cafe table, a living room with comfortable seating and a sleeper sofa couch. The suite is easily accessible for some with limited mobility or handicaps. A portable crib & roll-away bed are also available for use. We also rent a cabin on the property that sleeps 4, allowing larger groups to enjoy the property together. (Search for "Meadow Lake Cabin" on VRBO)
*Check-in time is 3 p.m. Check-out time is 10 a.m. CST
*SMOKE-FREE ZONE - The suite, the area immediately around the house, and the pool area are all Smoke-Free Zones. Smoking is only permitted on the lawn areas. There are no exceptions to this. Smoking is permitted on the lawn, and guests must dispose of cigarette butts in their vehicle ashtray, a water bottle, or smoke bucket outside the door. Smoking indoors will incur a damage fee.
*EXTRA PERSON FEE - We require an accurate statement of the number of guests in your party. The basic rate includes 2 guests. Every additional person, over 1 year old, will be charged $12/person/night.
*NO OTHER INVITEES - Guests of ours may not invite their own guests, friends or family onto our private property. No exceptions are allowed!
*AMENITIES - 3 acres with access to the front meadow, a seasonal stream, the dock overlooking a 6-acre lake, fishing, pool, & fire pit. The quiet, respectful use of these is available from 9am-9pm.
*LAKE - Catch & Release fishing only with a rich diversity of wildlife to enjoy.
*POOL - Unheated, salt-system swimming pool with pool toys and a patio with gas grill and dining tables. Minors using the pool or lake must be accompanied and supervised by an adult.
*FIRE PIT - for hotdogs & marshmallows, live music, and fellowship
*PETS - NO pets are allowed in the Suite. This is to accommodate guests with allergies. Exceptions are made for bona fide service dogs, however, you will need to affirm and demonstrate the following:
"1. They must be willing to honestly affirm that the animal is a service animal and attest to what task the animal performs. 2. Handlers must have their animal under control either on a leash or by verbal command if they are unable to use a leash. 3. They must pick up after the animal and dispose of waste appropriately."
* FIREARMS - Personal firearms may not be carried openly on the grounds or brought into the Suite.
* QUIET - We respect our guests' right to a quiet getaway and ask them to also respect the peacefulness we enjoy. Evening quiet hours are from 9pm to 9am, but we like for Meadow Lake to be a tranquil place all day. Loud volume music or other entertainment isn't allowed on the property.
Our home is located just off a county road, but on a private lane that's only used by the few residents living on it, allowing privacy without being remote. There is a railroad crossing within 1 mile, but the sound of the occasional train is usually soothing rather than disruptive. Chelsea has small-town character, but easy access to big-city amenities. The Shelby County area has many quiet and scenic roads to explore. Within 15 minutes you can find great dining and shopping options, a large cinema, and any number of services. Our county seat, Columbiana, has a pleasant Main Street to stroll, complete with a drugstore soda fountain. Columbiana also lays claim to a small gem of a museum with the second largest collection of George & Martha Washington memorabilia outside of Mt. Vernon!
Meadow Lake is approximately a 30-minute drive from downtown Birmingham, a 40-minute drive from Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport (23 mi or 37 km), 2.5 hours from Hartsfield-Atlanta Airport (152 mi or 245 km), 30 minutes from Amtrak Birmingham rail station (19 mi or 30 km), and less than 30 minutes from Interstates 65, 20, or 459.
We believe informality is a key ingredient of relaxation, and it begins when you arrive. We're always glad to recommend places to visit, shop, or eat at in our area, or otherwise make ourselves available to help.
We look forward to your stay with us!
