Gray Pine Cabin offers an idyllic setting to unplug in nature and start your lake adventure. Originally built by a Nashville songwriter, this three-story cabin has undergone a two-year renovation and now includes high-end finishes, a chef's kitchen with Smeg appliances and coffee bar, modern bathrooms with rainfall showerheads and Bluetooth speakers, and a vibey rec room perfect for board games, listening to vinyl on our turntable and enjoying your favorite (guest-provided) libation from the adjoining bar closet. You'll also experience designer-curated vintage/antique/contemporary decor throughout that marries the whimsy of the lakeside forest with upscale taste. Unparalleled, year-round views of gorgeous Eagle Creek Cove on Center Hill Lake await from an amazing rooftop deck with gas firepit and teak furniture or from the main floor deck with a Weber gas grill and dining area. The lower-level screened porch offers seasonal lake views and is always surrounded by a wooded canopy. And if you do have to pull yourself away from the view to work, the cabin has high-speed Internet as well as a dedicated desk. Roku TV with streaming capabilities in living and rec room.
Lake Access for Canoes/Kayaks: We do have a neighborhood put-in for canoes/kayaks if want to bring your own. Driving directions to put-in are in Welcome Guide at cabin. Please note the paved road down to put-in is a steep, one-lane road, but there is a large flat gravel parking area at bottom.
