About this property

Cozy cottage on our private lake and 75 wooded acres

Experience hobby farm life on the Cumberland Mountains of Tennessee! Enjoy waking up in our 650sq ft, open floor plan cottage with a wood burning flame view stove, on our homestead with a large private Mountain Lake and 77 wooded acres to hike and enjoy! We have seasonal flowers such as daffodils, peonies, lavender, dahlias and more. We also have on the farm a variety of Farm Animals (chickens, turkeys, peacocks, geese, horses, dogs, cats and 1 pig) and (visiting wildlife) that love interacting with visitors. We consider our place a nature oasis of sorts, in contrast to some portions of the region,
Our private lake is available for catch and release fishing, swimming, canoeing and kayaking. There is a propane grill for your use.
Other nearby sites include historic Chattanooga, Tennessee Aquarium, beautiful Rock City Gardens and Ruby Falls attractions along with several local state parks with waterfalls at Fall Creek Falls , Savage Gulf and Rock Island State Parks for further Tennessee exploration. Please be aware that security cameras do monitor the adjacent exterior perimeter of the cabin.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. The cabin was cozy and inviting. It was furnished with everything I needed. I loved sitting on the front porch and rocking while I read. All the animals were fun to watch and the dogs were so friendly. The lake is absolutely beautiful! I would highly recommend this lovely place.

Cozy secluded cabin was perfect for disengaging from the business of life and slowing down for a while. The wood stove was a treat after being outdoors on winter days. Hosts were responsive to messages and clearly attentive to details, i.e. they ensure there were enough washcloths for the duration of our stay! (This is surprisingly uncommon).

The drive to the property was a little scary in the sense that before getting to the cabin, the housing before driving in looked like a meth house area, it’s not the trailer it’s the condition of the trailer/ housing and surrounding area, it looked like a junk yard, before getting to the gated area. We almost left. It didn’t look safe driving in, but once we made it to the gated area and the cabin it was a little better.

Our neighbor has been through a tremendous loss the last couple of years. This young man lost his father to cancer, went through a divorce, lost his job and most recently lost his only home. He has been greatly depressed and we are trying to help and encourage him and the older man that is homeless and lives on his property. It does look bad but we look beyond that and look for ways to help those in need. We can all choose to see devastation and judge the conditions or we can see an opportunity to help someone who has a need for kindness.

We can't thank Joel and Kim enough for our wonderful stay! Our weekend was absolutely perfect. The cabin was so cute and cozy. The view of the lake was breath taking and we loved getting the canoe out and fishing. We got married on the dock and we couldn't have asked for better hosts. We will definitely be coming back for more weekend getaways!

Mom and I had a fabulous time kayaking, fishing (catch and release), swimming, and petting the dogs and miniature horses. The homeowners are extremely kind people, the cabin is comfortable, and the property is stunning. Mom and I hope to return!
