Days Inn by Wyndham Muscle Shoals Florence
This stay was so much better than I expected. I chose it because it was close to a vacation spot. But for the price, I didn’t expect such a nice place and a full breakfast. Definitely recommended.

Stenson Hollow Lake Condo
Lovely view, went by myself, firts night pretty rainy, cozy, comfy at the condo, the sunset and dawn are just stuning, very peaceful and less than 15 min away from shopping centers and good food places. I'd definitely be back and for a longer stay.

A little worn down, but certainly worked for us. Only thing we should have paid more attention to was only the one bathroom.
