Perfect for family vacations, lake weekends, and group getaways, this beautifully designed home blends comfort, entertainment, and outdoor adventure in a peaceful lakeside setting.
With room for large groups, inviting living spaces, and a private dock just a short walk from the home, this retreat makes it easy to relax, reconnect, and make lasting memories together.
✨ Top Highlights

• Spacious lake house that sleeps up to 16 guests
• Outdoor hot tub, fire pit, and covered patio with TV and grill
• Game room with billiards table and entertainment space

🏡 The Experience
Inside the home, an open-concept living area welcomes guests with soaring wood-beam ceilings, comfortable seating, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace—perfect for gathering together after a day on the water.
The fully equipped kitchen features granite countertops, a gas cooktop, double ovens, and a beverage station so the cook never misses the fun.
Step outside onto the large wraparound deck where you’ll find multiple seating areas, outdoor dining space, and a covered patio complete with café lights, a grill, and a TV for relaxing evenings outdoors.
🛏️ Rest & Comfort
Hidden Gem Lakeside Retreat comfortably accommodates up to 16 guests with spacious bedrooms and thoughtfully designed sleeping arrangements.
Each bedroom includes comfortable mattresses, soft linens, and welcoming touches that help guests unwind after a full day of lake adventures.
🎲 Entertainment & Outdoor Living
The lower level of the home offers additional space to gather and have fun together.
Guests can enjoy:
• A billiards table for friendly competition
• Large lounge area for movie nights or relaxing
• Outdoor hot tub overlooking peaceful wooded views
• A backyard fire pit perfect for s’mores and evening conversations
With multiple indoor and outdoor spaces, the home makes it easy for large groups to relax together without ever feeling crowded.
🚤 Lake Life & Outdoor Adventure
A short wooded path leads to your private dock on Watts Bar Lake, where guests can swim, paddleboard, kayak, or simply relax and take in the peaceful lake views.
The dock also features upper-level seating, perfect for sunrise coffee or sunset drinks after a day on the water.
Guests are welcome to bring their own boat or jet ski to take advantage of the boat slip and lift. We recommend Blue Springs Marina, Arrowhead Resort, or Terrace View Marina for Bass Boat and Pontoon Boat Rentals. We advise reserving these prior to your stay.

About the host
Hosted by Beth
I grew up in a home where guests were always welcome, so my love for providing hospitality started at a young age. Being your host is fun and meaningful because I love providing a beautiful space where you can relax, make fun memories with those you love, and find rest for your heart, soul, and mind.
I started hosting our first rental as a fun side project, but soon discovered that we wanted to keep growing our business through building new homes that are specifically designed for our guests. We took 6 of our 8 North Ridge Escapes properties from empty lots to the beautiful furnished properties available today! It’s a new found love and form of art with a meaningful purpose.
My husband and I have been married for over 16 years and love living in Chattanooga. We are enjoying these short, sweet, and crazy years as parents of four tiny humans! We love our church, Calvary Chapel Northside, and enjoy family adventures outside as much as possible.
We are honored to have you as our guest and I'm happy to answer any questions you have!
