About the host
Hosted by Michelle
We purchased "Lake Escape" Vacation House, after spending almost every weekend for years, on our houseboat located on CHL. Rock'n Sunshine rentals have attempted to make our home experience mimic one similar to staying at your grandparents and/or favorite aunt/uncle's home. We ourselves are a blended family, with five grown children (& spouses) and 26 grandchildren, who love spending time at the lake!
Why they chose this property
To offer a weekend getaway for our families and others looking for a peaceful retreat! We have attempted to make our home experience mimic one similar to staying at your grandparents, and/or your favorite aunt or uncles home. We ourselves are a blended family with five grown children (& spouses) and grandchildren,who love spending time at the lake.
Center Hill Lake, is an hour east of Nashville. Located in beautiful Smithville, at the foothills of East Tennessee, you will love the privacy, waterfalls and views of one of the best lakes in Tennessee. Just a short drive away from Nashville, Cookeville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga. There are many destinations to hike, canoe, kayak, boat, wake surf, shop and visit state parks, just minutes away from Lake Escape. Additionally, there are nine super quaint wineries and/or breweries in the upper Cumberland area, most of which are a short drive away.
What makes this property unique
There is room for everyone at Lake Escape!! We sleep 17 people comfortably in FIVE KING size beds, and three queen sleeper sofas (extra thick mattresses), and one XL twin (located in First Mate's Retreat). We have made this home a reflection of our lives growing up on the lake, every piece of decor has a story behind it. We made it a priority to have a dining table big enough for everyone to eat at, because we believe the most meaningful times are spent around the dinner table, talking to family and playing card games. Making memories to last a lifetime! (We also provide some lake supply rentals, please ask us about inventory & pricing)
Only steps down to the water! We provide four kayaks and life jackets for your use. Beach area to lake, below house. Boat ramp for small fishing boats and jet skis beside home.
