Albertville, Alabama cabins and vacation rentals

it's cabin time™ in Albertville

Albertville, Alabama was settled by Thomas A. Albert in the mid-1800s, who intended to lead the new town into prosperity. When a tornado destroyed the town in 1908, the folks who lived there rebuilt with commitment, and today, Albertville is a thriving town with plenty to do, from shopping, dining, hiking, adventure sports, and walks along the Tennessee River. The in-depth history of this little town can be explored at the Albertsville Museum, right in town.

Albertsville is surrounded by nature, from wooded trails to lake views, and beautiful mountains. At both Short Creek Falls and High Falls Park, get into nature with many hiking trails, waterfalls, kayaking, and white water rafting opportunities. At Lake Guntersville State Park, enjoy a golf course, beach, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, and mountain biking, all along the large Guntersville Lake.

For a thrill, check out The Screaming Eagle, a zipline adventure for those 8 and older, or explore the beautiful, geological caves at Cathedral Cavern State Park. On really hot summer days, take the kids to Spring Valley Beach Waterpark, with 10 water slides and a large pool. Family day passes are available here.
