Modern loft cabin by the pond on a 180-acre Duck River ranch, fishing, fire pit

A modern 1,000 sq ft cabin near the pond, with a main-floor king bedroom and a sleeping loft, on Riverbend Ranch, a 180-acre working cattle ranch wrapped on three sides by the Duck River in Normandy, Tennessee. Sleeps 6. A good fit for a family, two couples with kids, or a small group of friends.

Inside, an open living room with a leather sofa and a tall ceiling runs into the dining table and a full kitchen with butcher-block counters, a stainless steel range and a refrigerator. Drip coffee maker and Keurig.

Bedrooms: a private king bedroom on the main floor, and a loft with four Twin XL beds. 1.5 bathrooms, with a double vanity and a tiled walk-in shower. Heating and air conditioning.

Your stay includes use of the ranch, shared with other guests staying on the property: over a mile of Duck River frontage for fishing, fly fishing, kayaking and floating, a stocked lake and ponds (bass, bluegill and catfish, catch and release, no license needed; the river requires a Tennessee license), a basketball court, BB gun range and fitness center. Meet the horses and cattle over the fence. A riverside bonfire pit is available on request.

Streaming TV over WiFi, no cable. Paved road to the ranch, gravel roads on the property.

Just over an hour from Nashville and BNA. About 30 minutes to Jack Daniel`s in Lynchburg and Nearest Green in Shelbyville. Groceries are about 15 minutes away.
