Quiet, secluded little spot. Need some real downtime in your hectic life? This is your place. Bring your swimsuit, food and that book you've been meaning to read. Owners were great. Highly recommend and would stay here again if I have the chance to be back in the area.

Relaxing Getaway
My husband and I were looking for a place to get away and relax for the holiday weekend. We definitely found it with TRG Island Cabins! It is on a beautiful winding back road along the Tennessee River, yet only an hour drive from our home. The area is secluded and in a very private beautiful wooded spot right on the river. Everything is set up for your convenience, a fire pit by the river, a pool for taking a dip in the heat, and even the use of a canoe or kayak for exploring and fishing. The cabin are immaculate and well stocked. They even supplied is with things that most rentals don't, like toothpaste, razors, coffee, sugar, spices and cooking oil. You literally only need to worry about bringing your food. The owners, Chuck and Brad were amazing also. We had a great conversation with Brad about how they found the property and what they were doing. Chuck was available anytime on the phone if you needed anything. He even called us right after checkout to thank us for staying with them. Unfortunately for us, we "had too much fun" lol, and left some items behind. Chuck was on the phone again to let us know. Thank you so much for everything guys! Glad to be new members of the TRG Island family and will be visiting regularly.

We loved every minute of our stay, the owners were kind and friendly! They were willing to help in any way they could! We couldn’t use the pool (that was of no fault of the owners there had been a terrible storm and a lot of rain)! We will be back!

Surprise Getaway for My Wife
Beautiful inside & out with a great view of the river. You can rent boats. The pool doesn't open until May which wasn't mentioned on the ad. I think the biggest surprise was there is NO shower in the bathroom. It only has a jetted tub which was nice, but no shower was not mentioned in the ad.

The most beautiful mountain get away ever!! BUT... things to know when traveling
This is the most perfect, gorgeous, quiet, peaceful, romantic place to stay ever! BUT... take into consideration (we didn't, you are a minimum of 45 min away from any food/ restaurant/ gas etc.. also there is no shower just a bathtub) would still a million times over give this a perfect review. But we didn't come prepared and ended up eating Ramen noodles and drinking wine bc we didn't want to travel an hour and half round trip to get any food. So just be aware of that. But i would definitely go back again. We stayed in the fall and the road in and out is like a hallmark movie. If you're looking for the perfect quiet getaway this is it! I've continuously recommended and shown off this place since being back and we have many people interested. If id recommend it to my mama id recommend it to anyone!

Great trip!
We had an amazing trip to Chattanooga and enjoyed staying in this cabin on the Tennessee river. The drive to Chattanooga is about 35 minutes or so however it is a beautiful drive right on the river. The view from the cabin is amazing and you can walk right out the the river. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely come back!

Nice cozy cabin on the river
Beautiful views and polite host. Unfortunately it rained most of our stay, but the cabin was cozy. The host provided kayaks which was very fun weather permitting. We were unable to connect to the wifi (signal was too weak), but it was stated on the instructions in the cabin that we would need to contact the host - we were fine with using mobile data (signal was great with Verizon). The bed was soft, but well worn and my wife and I were very stiff each morning. Other than that we had a very nice experience.

Perfect retreat
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cabin was small but perfect for the 2 of us. It was well stocked and clean. It was just what we needed. We loved that it was right on the riverbank and far enough from other cabins to allow for our privacy. We grilled out and rested. Enjoyed watching others kayaking and canoeing. We had a great time celebrating my husband’s birthday away from home and work. The view of the mountains is gorgeous. I can only imagine how beautiful it would be in the fall. We plan to return.

Cabin by the lake
This cabin offers everything you need for a couple of days of peace and quiet. Keeping that in mind that because of that stores are not just 5 minutes away so my advice would be to get what you need for your stay beforehand. Chuck, the owner, was very accommodating if you have any questions he does not mind the silly questions you may have and wants to make your stay a pleasant one.

Weekend getaway
Overall, nice place for a weekend getaway. Your satisfaction really depends on what you are looking for. We definitely enjoyed the waterfront view, available canoe, firewood and grill. Alot of nice hiking and fishing locations nearby. Cons would be no shower (which was fine for us, but depending on physical capabilities the jacuzzi may be hard to get into for some), boat ramp is directly across from property-very busy and noisy on weekends, and no cell service/limited wifi if you need to stay connected.

Beautiful disconnected stay
No Verizon service on property until you drive a couple miles down the road, and WiFi password was incorrect, however, I’m assuming that has been fixed. Although, even if the password was correct the WiFi is supplied via the host house, and cannot be reached in or even directly outside the cabin (#1). Owners rules states WiFi is limited to emails only. A bit nit picky but having WiFi really shouldn’t even be advertised. Closest grocery store is 45 minutes away, however, host offers to pick up supplies. View of river is very nice.

Great River Front Cabin
Very secluded and quiet. Great view of the river and mountain's. No Shower, only tub, which was very difficult to bathe in, but we managed. Bed is in the kitchen and just a couple feet away from the fridge, very much like a studio. Fire wood was not stocked for the length of our stay, but owner was responsive and quick to react to our request for firewood. Place was very clean, howerver on departure, there was a list of things we needed to clean in order to not get a cleaning fee, which made us question if the place was cleaned and sanitized prior to us staying. All in all, great place to stay!
