Inside, you’ll find two thoughtfully designed bedrooms and two baths.

The attached bath offers clean, modern finishes and a locking barn door for privacy. Positioned on its own level, the suite feels secluded and serene.

The fully stocked kitchen features modern appliances, cookware, utensils, and a dedicated coffee and tea station. Dine indoors or enjoy meals on the covered porch overlooking the water. A propane grill is ready for sunset cookouts, or take a short stroll to Drifters Bar & Grille for lakeside dining and social energy.

Pet-friendly amenities make traveling with your pooch(es) effortless. The fully fenced backyard provides safe access around the porch and deck and a pet cleanup station is included.

Use self check-in with the keypad and a private entrance. Guests have access to the home, covered porch, fully fenced backyard, private swim deck, and tandem fishing kayak.

If you don’t want to cook then you will be happy to find that you are very close to a variety of good eats. Allie’s parking area has room for a couple of vehicles with boats, trailer/toy hauler or motorhome (40 ft max. length) in case you are traveling heavy.

The property is pet-friendly and offers a fully fenced backyard. Central air conditioning, central heating, high-speed 1 GB Wi‑Fi, and dedicated workspaces support comfortable stays in every season.

For safety, exterior security cameras are on the property. Water levels are seasonal and outside of the host’s control. The swim-dock ramp is fixed in place and becomes steeper when the lake drops below about 505 feet, which is common in winter or after a dry spell; at those times, the upper deck is an easier place to fish or relax. After heavy rain, the water may run murkier and faster for a day or two.

Allie's is located near the confluence of Rock Creek and Clear Creek. The swim dock ramp is fixed in place, so it gets steeper when the lake drops below about 505 ft (common in winter or after a dry spell) — the upper deck is the easier spot to fish or relax from when that's the case. Water can also run murkier and faster for a day or two after heavy rain.

The house was extremely clean and well stocked. We appreciated the welcome wine and dog corkscrew, super cute! The beds were really comfortable. We didn’t bring our dogs, but definitely would if we stayed here again. Super dog friendly!The only issue we ran into was the lake being dried up. I don’t know if I missed it in the description or details, but the water levels were so low the dock was almost on the ground. It was still warm enough we could’ve swam or kayaked, but we weren’t aware of the low lake levels. I grew up around lakes and didn’t know this was even a possibility. We would stay there again, but I wouldn’t go during “off season” if I’d have known about the low water levels. Lots of local things were closed as well. Everything else was great!

Overall, my family is very pleased with our stay. My only complaint is the house feels stuffy and has a musty smell. Not sure if an air purifier or dehumidifier is needed ...or both. Other than that, it was a beautiful, clean, peaceful place. Tim was extremely responsive to questions or messages that I sent. Would definitely stay again.

Tim and crew made us feel welcome. They provided everything we needed and then some. We were so thankful our two big puppies could stay with us. So often people won’t let us vacation with our dogs which we understand or if they will it’s small dogs only and we have a Great Dane and Staffy mix. They loved the yard. They loved being outside with us. It’s so nice to have the fence and let us be able to just hang out without worrying about them. Everything was comfortable. The beds were great. We loved the low water in the Fall bc it allowed us to watch the Egrets and Blue Heron and Geese eating and gathering from sunrise to sunset. We loved it all. The houses are close together and you do hear the restaurant across the street when you’re out at night. But on the dock you can’t hear a thing and it’s peaceful in the morning! We ordered from the restaurant one night and it was delicious as a side note. Our dogs just liked to bark at the people gathered there when they heard them.

My husband and I, with our Shitzu, Nessley, just spent a wonderful-long weekend at Allies on the Rocks. It has been the best weekend ever! This cottage is comfortable and very clean. We were met with Champagne, roses, chocolates for our anniversary and also surprises for our Nessley. We loved our time at Allies. Tim and his wife were super nice to work with and very hospitable. They have thought of everything to make your time there enjoyable. We loved swimming, fishing and just lingering on the deck watching the fish jump. We also enjoyed a local pontoon company for a sunset boat cruise on beautiful Smith Lake. We were in walking distance to Drifters restaurant and enjoyed several great meals there. If you want to stay in, the kitchen is well stocked with everything you will need. We would definitely recommend this rental. We had the time of our lives!
