Lakefront-Lakeview-Steps to the Water-Tim's Ford Lake LUXURY Home & DOCK

Welcome to Barefoot Beach!
We went to look at this lot by boat in 2021, and when we beached our pontoon, our youngest son caught his first fish! Of course, we had to buy the lot!
Then, we built the house where we would create many more memories fishing and exploring our own shoreline. Hence the name, Barefoot Beach. (I do however recommend water shoes because you just never know, we did clean the beach during low pool but you never know.)
While we are not there, we would love to share our awesome lake home with friends and guests.
The master bedroom has a king bed with TV and its own private full bathroom including a soaking tub and walk-in closet.
Upstairs, we have 2 bedrooms that share a full bathroom and each bedroom has a queen bed in it along with large windows for the perfect lake view between the trees, and a TV.
Also upstairs, a bedroom with Twin XL bunk beds, and a Twin XL bed for a total of 3 beds in our flamingo green pink theme room.
Then, in the large bonus room (5th bedroom with a door) there are 4 Full beds, a Twin daybed and Twin trundle, with a large TV. This room is perfect for 5 or 6 adults or up to 10 children.
The living room has a TV as well.

All TV's are Smart Tv's perfect for streaming as you please.
There is a large rear deck with seating, dining, and a propane grill.

The kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes, plates, silverware, and utensils. There is a regular drip coffee maker and French Press. The island seats 3 and the dining area table seats 6 and the exterior dining table seats 8.

Have fun with the whole family at this dreamy lake house conveniently located in Winchester, TN. Close enough to walk to the private boat ramp. Come enjoy all that Tim's Ford Lake has to offer- including the closest marina- Twin Creeks marina, Jack Daniel's Distillery, Tim's Ford State Park, Sewanee, golf courses, and more!

Closest boat ramp- at the entrance of our street on Luttrell. Walking distance. 2 min walk.

You can keep a boat at the docks.

Wifi

Built by Legacy Lake Homes, this custom designer home is a wonderful getaway! Enjoy your own private lake access and fishing hole.

Starter supply of household supplies (toilet paper, paper towel roll, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, trash bags) included with mini shampoos, conditioners, and bar soaps.

Please bring your own fire wood for the fire pit and lake towels for your stay. We ask that you do not use the white bathroom towels at the lake and to follow lake rules- no glass bottles at the lake (Barefoot Beach, remember?) Also don’t forget the coffee grounds for the coffee maker!

The house and location was amazing. Our host was especially nice and very quick in responding to my messages to her. The house and grounds were beautiful and very comfortable. The views of the lake from the back covered deck were simply grand and yet relaxing. My group have stayed at a variety of vrbo locations over the past few years and they all said, ‘wow, you really hit it out of the ballpark this time’, meaning they were most impressed with my selection of this vacation rental.

July 4th Lake Escape

We had 10 adults and 2 babies for our Lake Escape. The kitchen was beautiful and very functional. We really enjoyed all the counter space and island for prepping the meals. We were happy to find an extra small fridge in the garage for extra food storage. All amenities were exactly as described.

Great family stay

We enjoyed spending special family time. The kitchen is perfect for a multi family gathering. Liked having multiple spaces to eat, play games, a do crafts. Having the kayaks (adult and kid size) was wonderful. Realized we were one kayak short late in the week and could have used all that were stated in the description. The kids loved fishing off the dock! Having kids fishing poles was a huge hit! We had to borrow another little kid life jacket from a friend. We rented a boat for the day and the dock was easy to use for that as well as for swimming. Love that there wasn't a steep grade down to the water and we could see the lake. We had to clean and sweep off the deck, spray a few wasp nests and get rid of a bird nest that was in one of the chairs. But brooms and bee spray were readily available. We look forward to renting again.

Beautiful and Comfortable Stay

We stayed here for a staff retreat and comfortably had 10 people stay. It's spacious, beautiful, and clean, and the layout is awesome. There's a grocery store nearby for quick runs and close to pickleball courts and hiking. It's right on the lake with an awesome back yard and deck to make mornings and evenings extra great.

Fall Break Getaway

This was a beautiful house with all of the amenities we could possibly need. There was so much room to spread out and we loved the outdoor fire pit and being able to walk down to the lake. The bedrooms were large and comfortable, and the downstairs was very large and open with lots of room for 2 teenagers, a seven year old and 5 adults to spread out and have different activities going on at the same time. My grandchildren are already asking when we can go back!

Amazing Lake Home

I grew up in Winchester, and my parent live on the lake. I have stayed in many properties on the lake, and this is by far the best! This custom home is well built and designed to accommodate multiple guests. It is very comfortable with beautiful decor and appliances. I will definitely be back!!! The communication and check in was seamless.

Wow! This place is a must stay!

Our group checked in on Friday evening with ease and were blown away by the beauty of this home! Everything was so nice and clean. The listing is exactly as described. We plan to make this a tradition and stay here for years to come! The boat dock was right down the road and made it quick and easy to launch the boats for a boat day. Blue Gill is about 30-20 minute boat ride and Twin Creeks Marina is right across the water from the boat launch. Again, we truly loved this property and there was plenty of room for our group of 16!

Great lake getaway

5 Stars for this property. From the moment you walk-in you will start to feel the happiness and joy set in. I booked this property for a family getaway and it quickly became so much more than that. The meals and laughter that we shared in the large open kitchen, the drinks and stories that were shared as we all gather outside on the patio area, the laughter of the kids as they learned how to paddle board, there just seemed to something for everyone. Now, that Ishared all the good, i would also like to share some upgraded that i would like to see for our next visit at this property. We all wished there was some type of sitting area near the water so that we could have enjoyed that area more. Also, some lighting by the dock area would be a huge plus. Even though there is lighting going down the path to the water, it was very dark at the dock area, itself. But, even with my wishlist, it was still a great property and with a very convenient location.
