About this property

Beautiful river cabin in the heart of the Tennessee River Gorge.

Beautiful place to take a break, in solitude,...fish, swim, no neighbors next door. Kayak rentals nearby. Just sit on the dock and enjoy the river, the view across the way, stars at night.
Enjoy our peaceful woodland cabin in the heart of the Tennessee River Gorge with beautiful views of the river and gorge...Sit by the fire pit and watch the sunset roasting marshmallows or hot dogs...watch the barges, kayaks, and boats go by...or geese, waterfowl, and wildlife. After cooking out on grill...dine out on the spacious screened in porch overlooking the river. Gather together in the evening and play games or cuddling up next to the fire with a book and/or loved one. This is a restful place surrounded by nature with all its beauty. Kayak the river or hike nature trails to the Prentice Cooper State Forest (part of the Cumberland Plateau). Enjoy all this within 30 minutes of downtown Chattanooga to explore. Our 3 bedroom/3 bath (with bunk room and loft) will sleep 10...accommodating family get togethers. We welcome families, children, and pets (although need to be aware it is on the river- so safety for children and pets important). This cabin does rent through CRAIG's List.

Great getaway place
Close enough to Chattanooga to easily find fun things to do but when you’re there it’s quiet and relaxing. It was exactly what we were looking for when we got married, everything was as perfect as we could ask for. Looking forward to going again.

Nice Quiet Get Away
The house is perfect for adults and families who want to get away from high traffic, noisy areas. Our family used it for a fishing vacation where we wanted some quiet solitude after we came off the river. I think the house would also be perfect for a family or group of adults wanting to explore the hiking trails in the area. The house is very comfortable, well equipped, and well maintained with a gorgeous view of the river and surrounding hills and mountains.

Breathtaking, peaceful and cozy
The cabin was as described and a very peaceful place to stay. It had everything you need plus the coziness. We did not barbecue or use the fire pit but that is available for use at the cabin. I hope anyone who books at this cabin will enjoy the nature and the quietness of life away from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives. Thank you very much! God bless.

Escape from it all
This was the perfect property to escape for a long winter weekend -- seasoned firewood and roasting skewers for the outdoor fireplace, lovely warm fireplace in the living room, very comfy beds, etc. Since the weather was bad, we did one grocery shop, parked our cars, and settled in to enjoy a quiet weekend with comfy surroundings.
