This is a tough one. Guntersville State Park has excellent lodging for a group and is just up river from Guntersville, though the State Park is the only lodging there and the drive to town is a few miles. Most fish the Sauty (North/South) and areas around State Park to Goose Pond so you within reach of Pine Island and more. Some practice out of Scottsboro as its handy for a few days and lodging is plentiful. The SEBCOG event was held out of Val Monte, once Macs Landing, though it is located in Spring Creek and Guntersville proper. It is handy for the south end of Honey, Spring and Browns areas. The pier walk to your boat in the morning is very easy unless it rains then you can opt to put your boat in the dock and either is only a walk. Though again it is a few miles up river to Goose Pond and a drive to the State Park. The State Park facilities are nice, though just a fidget remote.Guntersville proper has all sorts of accommodations. So now you have some things to think about.
