About the host
Hosted by Dave Brockman
Hello Family, We call Chattanooga, TN home. Jennie is directly descended from Cherokee who lived in this area, and we are blessed to be able to call this our second home. As we are not able to spend all our time in our special place, we wanted to share it with others.
Why they chose this property
We visited the Lake Santeetlah area in preparation for a wedding, while Jennie was researching family history. As history and present intersected, we found the perfect place to call home away from home.
What makes this property unique
Our property is uniquely located to provide picturesque views, direct water access, and all the amenities we like to enjoy. We travel extensively, and we have endeavored to bring all the comforts we desire when traveling to our home away from home.
