Smith Lake real estate in Double Springs
Double Springs waterfront offers some of the most affordable entry points to Smith Lake. The land is more wooded, the coves are deeper-feeling, and the Sipsey Wilderness — one of the most beautiful natural areas in Alabama — is a 15-minute drive. For buyers who want a Smith Lake address at a meaningfully lower price point than the Crane Hill side, 35553 deserves a serious look.
