Very nice cabin and owner communication was great. I would stay her again and recommend it to anyone. One thing to note, if you are coming by boat, and plan on using the boat pier to keep your boat, the water is very shallow and the water level goes up and down.

Birthday Getaway

The house was lovely and exactly what we need for a calm birthday celebration. The property, house, and even the drive in were lovely. We specifically got river front property so we could kayak. The kayak launch was right outside the house, but only useable later in the day when the water was higher. It wasn’t a big deal at all to walk around the yard to the community dock. I would highly recommend this property for the river access if that’s what you’re looking for.

Great location for a relaxing stay

Great Family Getaway

We just left this house, I have to say I read reviews and was nervous about stuff being there so we took a ton based on one review. I have to say that had to be awhile ago because we had everything we needed! They even had a cabinet that had basic spices, flour, sugar, etc! They had a crockpot which my sister did use! The only one thing I would maybe bring would be a large pot to boil in if maybe you were doing a pot o chili or something. We had an age range 5-64. This place is truly a place to get away! Internet is great! TVs worked! Canoe available! Do take their advice and get everything you may need before you arrive, closest Walmart is about 35 minutes away, very close, but roads take a bit to travel on! Book this place for a true family vacation!

We had a great time! The house is pretty far into the middle of nowhere, so if you have a vehicle with 4w drive, that will be very helpful!

Beautiful place

This place is beautiful and a killer location right on the river, however there were a few issues we had while staying. The first was the cleanliness of the house. It wasn't terrible but it needed a deeper clean before we arrived. It seemed to have not been swept and there were fingernail clippings on the floor. The other issues were mostly that the house was bare bones. There were no trash bags, no coffee filters, no soap in any showers, among other things that were listed as being included but were not there. Contacted host and they helped me try to look for all that was missing but wasn't able to find anything. Would be a great place just needs a little more attention.

Charming and peaceful with breathtaking views

In 2020, my family and I visited the same area in TN and my kids absolutely loved it there. Recently, they mentioned that they'd like to visit again, so we found this charming stay with breathtaking views that accommodated all of us - my two kids and three of their friends. The space was ample, allowing us to roam comfortably. Since we didn't require immediate access to the city, the peacefulness of the area was perfect. Charla, the owner, was very accommodating and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend this place and we are already looking forward to our next visit.

Stay in Chattanooga

The 9 miles from downtown Chattanooga, doesn’t state “mountain miles”. It takes 45 minutes to get to house from downtown Chattanooga. There are lots of disturbing signs from Neighbors stating “go away, not welcome”. No exterior lights on property and very steep driveway to get to property. Once there the view is pretty, but the house was not cleaned well. Lots of dust and grime in counters and under beds.

Relaxing lakefront house

Property and house were as advertised and exactly what we needed for an extended family of 8 adults and 4 children from 4 families. The deck, fire pit and yard were great for activities. The lake and water were excellent for walking and fishing. The last 10-12 miles of road were slow going and I wouldn’t recommend traveling after dark, but our gps took us right to house.
