Weekend getaway

Stayed here for a short end-of-the-year getaway. Chuck, our host is very nice and made his kayaks and canoes available for us to use. The property is right at the edge of the Tennessee river, and so boating was a wonderful activity we could do every day. The cabin is reakky quite small, and would benefit from some shelves and stirage spaces. A small table inside the cabin would be very welcome also. Besides these minor inconveniences we had a great time.

Perfect weekend getaway!

My husband and I booked cabin 3 for our anniversary weekend and it was amazing! We were pretty secluded and were right on the water. Nothing like waking up and fishing in your pjs! The hosts were so helpful and kind! I also got the chance to meet their sweet pups who were soooo friendly and incredibly well-behaved! From the cabin, if you walk down the water line for about 5-7 minutes, you’ll get to the big dock and there are a lot of kayaks and canoes (plus life jackets and paddles) there to use which is very convenient. Its location is pretty far from stores (about 30-40 minutes) so plan accordingly! However, if you have a boat, I would ask if you could just park at the boat dock across the river and boat over because that would cut about 30 minutes off of your drive into town. Not sure if overnight parking is allowed there so do your research first! Overall, this was a great stay and we will definitely be back!

Cozy cabin right on the river!

The cabin is perfect for a get-away. It was a bit difficult to find in the dark, so if you're arriving late, you might ask for additional directions from Billy or Chuck. Also, bring bug spray! We really enjoyed the cabin, the front porch and the views. We would definitely go back!

Beautiful views

If you are looking for a place far off the beaten path, this is your place. There are breathtaking views of nature, twisting and winding country roads, through beautiful foliage. The cabin is rustic but very clean. Right on the water with kayaks and a canoe available. The host is very nice and responsive. We enjoyed our stay very much. The only things I wish I knew before hand was how far it was from town. It takes about 30-45 minutes to get to town for gas or provisions. The shower is a separate room from the cabin where you must walk out onto the porch to get to it. Overall a great experience and would definitely recommend if you love the outdoors, fishing, and nature.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chuck’s cabin. It is right on the water, and the views are just spectacular. The cabin was adorable, with all of the things we needed to make our stay comfortable. We have already booked for another stay this summer and are looking forward to it. Chuck is a great host. Thank you!

Cute cabin and beautiful views

My husband and I loved staying at this cabin. It was very clean and everything was ready for us when we arrived. We loved the location and the views they were just as pictured. The only thing that would make it better would be if there were a town or store or basically anything closer. It’s definitely away from civilization if that’s something you’re wanting. It takes about 35 minutes to get to the closest grocery store which isn’t terrible but any attractions such as the blue hole or rock city were over an hour away. For us it would be nicer to be a little closer to town but overall we loved the cabin and views so much we would definitely stay here again. It was worth driving 40 minutes to an hour to get places to stay somewhere so peaceful and serene. I highly recommend staying here.
