The Boutique Rebirth: Creekside Lodge
Coming in May 2026, the Creekside Lodge at Lake Martin in the Blue Creek area is being transformed into a premier boutique destination. The renovated 20,000-square-foot lodge will feature 24 guest rooms and three two-bedroom suites equipped with full kitchens and expansive decks. For those visiting during the fall, the lodge offers specialized Auburn Football Weekend Packages, which include accommodations and round-trip transportation to and from the stadium—making it a perfect hub for Tigers fans.
Luxury Vacation Rentals
For larger groups, the luxury rental market is thriving. Managed properties like Heron House and The Nest in Eclectic offer upscale amenities such as chef-designed kitchens, private piers, and even EV chargers. Other top-rated options include Honeysuckle Court (sleeping 10) and the waterfront 86 Creek in Alexander City.
Historic and Natural Stays
If you prefer Southern charm, the Mistletoe Bough Bed & Breakfast in Alexander City offers a vintage Victorian experience just ten minutes from the lake. For a more rustic adventure, Wind Creek State Park features the largest state-operated campground in the U.S., along with seven air-conditioned camping cabins for those who want the cabin life without the tent.
