Lakefront property, spacious family retreat with private dock, hot tub & kayak
If you are looking for an incredibly fun getaway for your whole family, Jackson Cove is the best destination on Tims Ford Lake!!!
This cozy home is centrally located off the main channel in a cove with its own private dock perfect for swimming, fishing, and boating. There are 2 deck levels, stairs with handrails to the dock, hot tub, boat launch access 5 minutes away, screened-in porch, spacious great room, dining area, and a full-service kitchen. Sleeps 12-15.

Walking in the front door at Jackson Cove guests will see the open living area with a cathedral ceiling, kitchen with bar-top seating, and a pass-through to the dining area.
There is plenty of extra seating for large families, a fireplace, smart TV, and a door to the upper-level deck with a beautiful view of the lake and wooded back yard. From this deck, guests can chill and grill, walk down to the private dock or relax in the screened-in sunroom and 2 person hammock.
Back inside the main floor either walk down the hallway to the half bath and master bedroom with private office space, master bath, and sliding door to the sunroom, or head downstairs to the great room.
The great room has plenty of seating as well as a new smart TV with DVD player withCD's, a Wii, 3 bunks, and a floor mattress for plenty of options for sleeping, as well as several board games and books to enjoy.
Also on the lower level is a full-service laundry room with a sink and an extra refrigerator, a full bathroom, and 2 additional bedrooms.
From the great room, guests can walk out onto the lower deck for more seating and lush views of the outdoors and lake, walk to the dock, or take a turn in the relaxing 4-6 person hot tub.
We are family-friendly with plenty of toys, books, games, 2 packNplays, a high chair, bunk bed safety rails, and baby gates.

About the host
Hosted by Rebecca Jackson
Hi everyone! I'm Rebecca and I'm originally from Southern Illinois, born and raised on a farm until I moved to Tennessee.
I have lived in Tennessee since 2010 with my husband Dan and finished raising our five children here. I am a business owner and insurance agent and have used VRBO for our family travels for several years
I absolutely love to travel with my husband and family. We have a large close-knit family and we have traveled together to many destinations nationally and internationally. I would say my favorite trips have been in our camper to the Keys, and then there was the time we flew to Seattle and hiked across Canada and the northern states. I love the city and countryside especially those not so often traveled out-of-the-way places that aren’t always obvious to the typical tourist.
I love taking care of the needs of my guests by offering a respite for you that is relaxing, adventurous, and carefree.
I can't wait to "meet" you! I’ll do my best to make your stay comfortable and help you enjoy this awesome lake trip to the fullest! Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions regarding my listing.

Why they chose this property
Tim's Ford Lake has phenomenal views, many places to explore close by, and is located close to Chatanooga and not too far from Nashville for a lovely weekend stay for a couple or even your extended family.
What makes this property unique
We love that Jackson Cove is in a quiet neighborhood, not too far from town, right on the lake, but in a cove and not on the main boat way. There are 4 marinas on Tim's Ford that can meet every need a guest would have for boating, fishing, rentals, entertainment, gas, and food supplies.
We keep our home stocked with many basics: soaps, cleaners, paper goods, garbage bags, storage bags, wraps, coffee, spices, and condiments so our guests don't have to.
