About this space

Imagine relaxing in this charming home with lots of character just 6.4 miles from both Auburn's campus & downtown Opelika! Soak in serenity from our cozy cottage porch overlooking the tree swing & pond where you can fish, paddle & ponder life. Our quaint home has beds for 14 (2 K, 2 Q, 6 Bunks), so come with your people to experience it all together! Enjoy our rustic kitchen, patio with a grill, pecan orchard, and pond with a paddleboat. The unique climax: a scenic ride on our vintage firetruck!

The space

Our cozy cottage with lots of character near The Loveliest Village on the Plains (only 6.4 miles from the AU campus!) offers special outdoor spaces, including a front porch with porch swing and comfy chairs overlooking the pond and a tall tree swing plus a back patio with a charcoal grill, tables, and more seating. There is a lot of space for the children to spread out and play in the yard with the beautiful pecan trees. We can house up to 14 people (6 bunk beds for the kids) plus a pack-and-play / travel bed for the baby. Two "Family Rooms" upstairs each have a large bed (one king, one queen), bunk beds, a papasan round chair, and a window seat reading nook overlooking the pond. Our roomy kitchen allows multiple people to pitch in and work together, creating meals and memories. The rustic living room/dining room area has a beautiful wooden-beamed vaulted ceiling, an electric fireplace, a 55-inch Smart TV with cable, and 400 Mbps WiFi throughout the house. Three full bathrooms and a washer and dryer make it simple for everyone to stay together comfortably.

Guest access

You will have exclusive access to the whole cottage and yard. Neighbors have shared access to the pond, which is used infrequently.

Other things to note

At the Pond House on the Plains, we offer fun, wholesome special touches to make your stay an experience to remember for the whole family! Where else can you get a 30-60 minute scenic ride on a vintage firetruck through the lovely adjoining woods and fields?! This is also the perfect prop for taking unique photos. A complete mini tea set and a picnic basket are provided. There is a fun, tiny playroom for the little ones under the stairs. Fishing poles and a paddleboat will be provided upon prior written request so you can more fully enjoy the pond. You can bring your additional non-motorized boats, such as kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards. The Pond House is the only brick, two-story home in the small, surrounding "Whatley Farms" neighborhood.
