About this property
Beautiful Pet Friendly Home on the Cumberland River! Fish, Hike, Relax!
Paradise on the Cumberland River! Fish, Hike, Birdwatch, RELAX! 1,300 sq ft of awesome home perched above the trout filled Cumberland River. Watch the Otters, soring Eagles and listen to the owls, tree frogs and coyotes at night. We are about 5 miles down river from Burkesville and 38 miles downstream from Cumberland Lake. Twenty minutes from Sulphur Springs-Dale Hollow, forty minutes from Wolf Creek Dam and Hatchery Creek. The house is Victorian on the outside and cabin on the inside. The upstairs has a loft with a futon, upstairs bedroom has a queen bed and a pullout couch, shower and laundry. Downstairs Bedroom is a double bed, pullout couch and Full bath. The living room has a pullout couch and two oversized chairs surrounding the fireplace. My wife decorated this and I will tell you, you will love this place. There is a front porch with a swing, back deck has been replaced with a stunning concrete patio overlooking the river. There is also a small herb and vegetable garden to use.
Relax by the fire, pitch horseshoes or nap in the Hammock down by the river. Cards, cribbage, corn hole, crokinole and a dartboard if you like games. AC, Heat, Galley Kitchen, indoor fireplace, washer/dryer, sheets, pillows and towels. There is also wifi, Internet TV ROKU and plenty of DVD movies.
You can use the boat ramp that adjoins the property it is a community ramp that we maintain. You won't see the boat activity down here that you see in the first 15 miles down from Wolf Creek Dam, six boats a day is a lot. This a great base camp for large trout, striper and walleye. We love to fish and occasionally we keep one for the pan. The river is coming back from the construction project and the fishing is getting better and better.
We are pet lovers. If you want to bring your animals its ok with us. There is cat box in the upstairs bathroom closet. Food and water bowls inside and outside. Just bring food. If the dogs are going to be left behind and may ruin something please crate them.
There is no smoking or vaping in the house. If you need to smoke do it outside and please don't leave butts in the grass or fire pit. If you have questions call me.

About the host
Hosted by Gregg Markowski
We are Gregg & Gaylene. Recently moved here permanently and have built a Barndominium not far from the house with 2 dogs Packer and Jordy a sister and brother combo of kittens ( Ember and Lucky ). We love to fly fish, Gregg is now a licensed guide so schedule a trip. Welcome to "Fish Camp" We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
We looked for a long time for a property on a trophy trout water. Initially we bought the 3.5 acres up on the hill then 8.5 acres with a dream to build a house. Then through happenstance discovered this house was possibly for sale and bought it.
What makes this property unique
We love sitting on the back porch and watching the river go by or waving to the fisherman. There is a bounty of wildlife here. We see river otters, mink, beaver, muskrat, deer and bald eagles...ALL THE TIME!
