About this property
On the water with Dock & Great Location
Great cabin located directly on Tims Ford Lake. Cabin has been updated and includes nice, well stocked kitchen as well as a deck (with grill). Enjoy our dock - fish, swim and use our two kayaks, paddle board and a canoe. Plenty of space to tie your boat up to our dock in a mostly private cove. Please read the guest access section for more details on lake access.
Cabin is two stories. One bedroom with queen bed down and another bedroom upstairs with two twins and one double. Kitchen, bath, nice den with sofa (not a sleeper) and dining area and a nice deck with table and chairs and a gas grill. Stack washer and dryer in home. Kitchen has side by side refrigerator w/Ice & water, dishwasher, and range. Please note - The fireplace is electric.
Tims Ford is known for its small mouth bass fishing. Good fishing from our dock as well (bring your own poles and gear).
You will have dock access to use our dock with a covered boat slip. Besides the slip, there is plenty of room to tie up a second boat or Jet Ski. The dock has an open deck area (about 18' x 8') for sunning, fishing and hanging out. There is also two covered areas (about 4' x 20 each'). We have a table, chairs (8) and umbrella for your use. Great swimming off the dock (there is a ladder) . From the cabin, the view of the lake is blocked by tree's in the summer but pretty open in the winter.
NOTE - Our dock is down a relatively steep hill with a paved path (first 100 yards or so) and then less steep mulched path (about 50 yards or so). There are no steps.
You are welcome to use our two kayaks, canoe and paddle board (paddles supplied but please bring your own life jackets - WE DO NOT PROVIDE LIFE JACKETS - Life jackets are a TN state law and are required to use our canoe, kayaks or paddle board). There is a public boat ramp about 5 minutes away if you bring your boat.

About the host
Hosted by Andy Saul
Laura and I purchased the cabin when our kids were two and four. We outgrew it a few years ago and built a larger home on the lake in the same neighborhood. We used the cabin as a guest house until 2018 when we decided to share this great experience on Tims Ford lake with others. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
Our guests say we have thought of everything.
What makes this property unique
Great little cabin in the woods, directly on Tims Ford lake in a very private cove. Enjoy the use of our two kayaks, canoe and paddle board. We supply the paddles, but please bring your own life jackets if you plan to do lake activities. Wearing life jackets is the law when boating on the lake. Bring your fishing gear and fish from the dock, canoe or your boat. Our neighborhood has a boat ramp and locked parking lot to store your trailer. You will have access to our dock to fish, sun and hang out.
