About this property

Escape to Banjo Bungalow your cozy 2-bdrm lakefront cabin on 27 private acres

Nestled in the hills of Altamont, this charming 2-bedroom cabin offers a serene escape for your next vacation. Surrounded by beautiful lake views, you can enjoy fishing, swimming, or just taking in the great outdoors with a covered lanai complete with a relaxing hammock and lighted dining and BBQ area. A tire swing, volleyball net and acres of land are sure to give kids and pets plenty of room to play and fire pit for quiet evenings under the stars. Indoors, you'll find a fully stocked kitchen, perfect for whipping up delicious meals, and a smart TV with free WiFi to stream your favorite shows or movies. Unwind in the comfortable living room in front of the fireplace or take advantage of the on-site laundry facilities. Just a 29-minute drive away, you can explore the stunning Greeter Falls and Blue Hole, a must-visit destination as well as many other hiking trails on the Cumberland Plateau. However, if civilization is what you seek you can find it any direction about 45 minutes away. Attend an underground concert at The Caverns in Pelham, shop or dine in Monteagle, Sewanee, Manchester, or McMinnville. Tours of the JackDaniels or George Dickle distilleries are within an hours drive. Conveniently located about an hour and a half from both Nashville and Chattanooga this cabin has everything you need for a relaxing and memorable stay.

About the host

Hosted by Julie Gross

Host profile image
Our large and growing family needed more room so we purchased this second property on this shared private lake to accommodate our overflow of family and friends.

Why they chose this property

Nature, peaceful, water access and views and plenty of wide open space.

What makes this property unique

Banjo may not be the fanciest cabin around but she is cozy and we have something that other rentals don't have which is seclusion, peace and quiet that you won't find in other areas.
