Gorgeous Lakefront Log Home w/ Pool & Boat Dock on 3 Fenced Acres! Dogs Welcomed
This exceptionally clean and beautiful lakefront log home, a Chalet more than a cabin, on year-round deep water is perfect for your next vacation and family gathering. The spacious yet cozy 2900+ Square Foot home is situated on a bluff overlooking the main channel of Watts Bar Lake and the Tennessee River. The views from the house, pool, two story dock and numerous decks surrounding the house are spectacular! The three-acre fenced, cross fenced and gated, wooded lot provides a feeling of privacy and seclusion yet is only minutes from the city. Fabulous shopping and dining at Turkey Creek in west Knoxville are only 25 minutes away.
The screened-in porch is everyone's favorite spot to unwind after a day on the lake. Watch boats go up and down the lake or sit and listen to storms blow through the area while staying dry. Cocktails and snacks are never interrupted by bugs as the porch is fully screened and has fans to keep the air moving.
The master suite has a king-sized bed with a new Tuft & Needle mattress, whirlpool bath and adjoins the screened-in porch. The guest suite has a fabulous 4-poster queen bed and expansive views of the lake. The third bedroom overlooks the pool and lake and has a deluxe queen bed, 2 twin beds and 2 new Spa Sensation queen mattresses. This room has a SmartTV with cable and a pool table. The fourth bedroom has a queen memory foam bed a SmartTV and separate A/C unit for comfort.
The Great Room has a large stone fireplace and a large flat screen SmartTV with premium channels. The Netflix App is also available as well as Xfinity's Streampix video library. It also has a DVD player attached to the entertainment system. Wi-Fi is available on all floors and from every room with good cell phone coverage throughout if you use AT&T or Verizon network.
The deep water, two level dock with year-round water on 39,000 acre Watts Bar Lake is the perfect access for all types of water sports and some of the best fishing in East Tennessee. And with over 400 feet of waterfront, you will have plenty of quiet time down at the dock. The top level of the dock is great for hanging out with family or just enjoying the sun and the views.
From the decks, you will get 180-degree views of Watts Bar Lake comprising a portion of the Tennessee River. You will see barges float by on their way to Knoxville and Chattanooga or a fleet of boats heading to a Vols football games at Neyland Stadium in the Fall.
The pool is open from late April or early May where it gets plenty of day time sun to warm up quickly until late September when the weather is still warm enough to enjoy a dip in the pool with spectacular views of the lake all year around.
Watts Bar Lake consists of over 770 miles of shoreline to explore along with 14 islands and several places to cliff dive from over 80 feet high. The lake extends over 72 miles from the Watts Bar Dam up to Ft. Loudon Dam with the maximum depth of 70 feet typically found around the dam.
As part of the Tennessee Riverline 652 pilot program... Roane County and the surrounding communities including Harriman, Mid-Town, Rockwood and Kingston are all part of the Tennessee vision for a continuous system of hiking, biking, and on-water experiences along the 652-mile reach of the Tennessee River from Knoxville, TN, to Paducah, KY.

We live in Knoxville but booked this property for our family to stay for our daughter’s March wedding at the beautiful nearby Opal Oak Summit. It was the perfect location & we can’t express enough how kind the owners were. We had no issues whatsoever & we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful lakefront property!
Property was awesome and as described. My crew and boss felt comfortable and Chris is an excellent host! Very accommodating and flexible.Would highly recommend!
Check-in was seamless. Super comfortable accommodations, well equipped. Really appreciated the large fenced yard for our active dog (Hungarian shepherd). The location is awesome too. Probably in our top 2 for vrbo stays. We'll be back!
You couldn't ask for more from a family vacation spot. This place has it all. The kids spent hours in the pool and we were able to visit lots of great places all within a reasonable drive with little ones.
We had such a wonderful time staying at this beautiful house on the lake! We are actually locals live less than 30 minutes away and was able to enjoy some much needed family time with extended family and do some fishing off the dock. If it is was warmer we would have had the kayaks out but maybe for a future stay! We also had a small get together for my parents 50th anniversary (immediate family only) this home provided the most beautiful back drop The property owner was amazing to deal with.
The week we spent on the property was so much fun and a perfect place to create memories! It was a little rainy but even rainy days were fun and filled with games, laughter, and love.
Wonderful week spent with my husband, son, daughter, son in law and their dog. We rented a pontoon from Caney creek marina and spent the week boating, fishing, swimming and playing games.

Weekend getaway☀️🍻🍷🥩🍔🛶🐟🌳🐿
Fantastic stay! Excellent scenery! Super relaxing atmosphere!
The property was as described. It was very nice. We were very happy with it. Everything you could think of was supplied, other than our food. We ended up not bringing family dogs, but they would have loved it. Great stay!
Amazing spot. We rented in December, and while it would be incredible in the summer months, it was still terrific. Great for families with young children.
Beautiful house on the lake. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of space for 8 of us. Tons of activities to do. Would definitely recommend and come back to in the future
Everything was as described and made for a nice weekend getaway. Pup loved running around outside. If you go in the spring bring some allergy meds as pollen is everywhere (for both humans and pups!). I’ll definitely be back.
I have always enjoyed the Smoky Mountains with hiking and fishing and all of the outdoor activities that the areas surrounding the mountains have to offer.
Being able to retire on one of the East Tennessee lakes has always been a goal of mine, and finding this property with this beautiful home has certainly been amazing.
Why they chose this property
I decided to purchase the home in September 2016 after making a visit to Watts Bar and falling in love with the home and the property. I was lucky enough to continue to work with the previous owner to help manage the property and work with the same group of people she has worked with since 2009 using HomeAway/VRBO with a 4.5+ rating.
When you drive through the gate and up the driveway you really get a sense of privacy and serenity with all of the trees and the gorgeous views from the top of the bluff. We had two of our dogs out there in the Spring and they really enjoyed being able to roam around the yard without any concerns over them escaping since the property is fenced on all 4 sides. The dock is great as it has a place above the boat lift to hang out and enjoy the lake and relax or sunbathe with a ton of privacy at the shoreline.
What makes this property unique
Privacy is one of my favorite amenities about the home and its location. There is a definite feel like you are in your own world but know you are still only minutes away from the grocery store, shopping and restaurants.
The screened in porch just outside of the master bedroom is one of the favorite places to hang out for most of our visitors. When thunderstorms blow through the area you can sit and watch the sky light up the lake and listen to the falling rain in the comfort of the enclosed room.
Year round deep water dock close to great fishing holes even from a kayak.
