My husband and I decided to go somewhere different and with our two dogs! I found this cute as can be cabin and it looked perfect! On the water, private and pet friendly! It was absolutely beautiful and so peaceful! Our dogs were in heaven and the views were breathtaking. Our hosts we great and so friendly. Told us about some hidden gems which was awesome because we didn’t have a clue. The places were so awesome! Nature and watching all the wild life was nice. You’ll have to go and see for yourself. Great place we will be back! Thank you so much for our peace and much needed vacation!

We really enjoyed our weekend getaway! Mr. Hart was so kind and communicated really well. I loved the Amish-style cabin, and the outdoor tub was amazing! The only thing that was a little disappointing was that the cabin wasn't quite as secluded as it was advertised.

My husband and I stayed in cabin #2 for the weekend with our dog and had the best time. Chuck and Brad are great hosts and very easy to communicate with. Their property is beautiful, private, and peaceful. The cabin was clean with modern amenities while still feeling like we were truly immersed in nature. Access to the canoes and kayaks was a huge plus as well! We plan to return for future stays!

Host was very welcoming and accomendating.Stayed December 20 - 23, 2025. Wonderful intimate cabin for two. This was our second stay. Located close enough to Chattanooga but far enough away to enjoy the peacefulness of the Tennessee River Gorge. Thank you for wonderful stay.Bill and Kathy

The cabin was so quaint and cozy - lots of spectacular views. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer to enjoy the cabin more. The host was super nice. My son left his favorite pillow case and the host mailed it back to us!! Definitely would stay again and recommend.

Beautiful and peaceful place to getaway.

The log cabin was absolutely gorgeous, and the views were amazing. Billy was a great host, anything that we needed or had questions on he was a call or text away and was very quick to respond. We will be returning for sure sometime in the future! I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a quite getaway from everyday life!

An adorable, clean wee cabin in an idyllic setting, run by impecable hosts.

My girlfriend and I sought quiet and simplicity and found both in abundance here. The cabin is cozy and well equipped and very private. Billy was quick to respond to our questions and happily dropped us up the lake for a leisurely paddle back to the island. We are already planning another stay in the fall. Many thanks Billy and Brad.

Quiet Cabin with Beautiful Views.

We boated from Huntsville to these secluded little cabins just outside of Chattanooga. The property manager was very helpful and assisted us dock and undock our boat. We used the supplied canoe to explore the Tennessee River Gorge and hike Racoon Mt. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality.
