About this property

Cabin with dock, Huge screen-in porch, Great FAM getaway, HS WiFi, Pet Friendly

Peaceful cabin on the Tennessee River / Lake Chickamauga with 2 bedrooms on main floor and a large loft. Two porches the length and width of the home, one is screen-in and offers a dreamy bed swing and seating for satellite watching tv.

It has a private boat dock for your enjoyment, so bring your boat in the summer! We only have summer water (Approximately Mid April - Mid Oct), so in the winter enjoy the Armstrong Ferry Campground boat ramp 2 miles
Cell coverage is also limited in our area but we do get calls and texts at the Cabin. High speed Fiber internet is now available. Download measured over 800mbps
We are pet friendly. Include your pet in the booking for a small fee. We do ask for the pets to stay off the furniture and the beds. Also please clean up their waste in the yard. They do need to be Potty and Poo trained.

Enjoy the quietness of Decatur, Tn.! Odds are you will see deer so drive carefully.

The cabin was actually a little bigger than we expected. We enjoyed that it was located in a rural quiet area and were pleasantly surprised to find kayaks to explore the backwater areas of the river.

Relaxing family getaway. We loved kayaking, the fire pit and relaxing on the front porch. All of the added board games were a great touch. The accommodations and communication were easy! Be sure to put it in your GPS before you get to no service.

The cabin was great- could have been a bit cleaner upon arrival. The lake was nice so we could fish some. The beds weren’t the most comfortable and there wasn’t much closet space, but overall it was a nice place to stay and I would recommend it.

Great relaxing stay

My family stayed for three nights to fish Chikamauga lake and visit Chattanooga. The house is very clean, well equipped and the host was great with communication. For anyone bringing a boat, there is plenty of parking for multiple boats and Armstrong Ferry boat ramp is just down the road.

We had a really nice time. Lots of nature but not sure about swimming from dock but did some anyway. One tweak was the grill was not cleaned. Porches were to die for!

Perfect cabin for a relaxing getaway.

The lake house cabin was perfect for our little family. We spent most of the time on the lake and around the dock. Everything was wonderful and the cabin is very spacious.
