Great family getaway

13 members of our family spent the week after Christmas at this beautiful house on Tims Ford Lake. It was equipped with everything we needed to prepare meals, comfortable beds, large spaces for us all to gather. We enjoyed the game room (pool table, ping pong, shuffleboard). There is an awesome view of the lake and lots of outdoor seating. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

Had the entire family meet for a group vacation. The kids loved fishing and swimming from the dock. The house could not have been better. Morning coffee just seems to taste better with the view from the deck. We can’t wait to go back

About the host

Hosted by Barbra Mullaney

We are a family of six from Brentwood, Tennessee with a love of hiking and spending time together outdoors. We bought this home to bring family and friends for a gathering place close to home, to relax after a stressful week at school or work, and to enjoy the beauty of the lake, tall and flowering trees, and abundant wildlife. We looked at many lake homes in Kentucky and Tennessee and fell in love with the wrap-around porch leading to spectacular views of the lake and the great room with two story windows inviting you to unwind, relax and entertain. We have fun coming up with new ideas and projects for the lakehouse. The most recent addition is the Gazebo. It is a privilege and joy to share our oasis on the lake with people wanting to celebrate and gather with friends and family.

Why they chose this property

This property offers the best of lakefront living — sweeping water views, spacious entertaining areas, and five inviting bedrooms. It’s a peaceful escape where every detail invites you to slow down and savor the moment.

What makes this property unique

From sunrise coffee in the cedar gazebo to sunset cruises from the private dock, this home blends comfort with unforgettable experiences. The game room keeps everyone entertained, while multiple decks and gathering areas make it easy to enjoy the lake together — or find a quiet moment just for you.
