Secluded Lake Tenkiller Cabin | 2 Acres | Sleeps16

The Space



Anchor Away is where lake weekends feel easy again.



Tucked away on 2 private wooded acres near Lake Tenkiller, this fully remodeled 5-bedroom bungalow was designed for big family gatherings, boat days, and late-night laughter around the table.



Inside you’ll find:

• Open-concept kitchen with newer appliances

• Comfortable sleeping for up to 16 guests

• Open common areas for games and meals

• Peaceful, tree-filled views from every window



Less than 1 mile to Carlisle Cove public boat ramp — launch in minutes and be on the water fast.



⸻



Outdoor Space



This is a true lake cabin — surrounded by nature, trees, and fresh Oklahoma air.



Large driveway (50’ wide, 150’ long) accommodates boats and trailers. It’s tight the first time backing in, but we’ve had everything from pontoons to wake boats fit comfortably.



** IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ: INSECTS & WILDLIFE



Our cabin is located on wooded acreage near Lake Tenkiller, where insects are a natural part of the environment, especially during warmer months. Guests should expect to encounter insects both outside AND occasionally inside the home, including moths, gnats, spiders, and other native insects.



We have the property professionally treated for pests monthly, maintain Zevo insect traps throughout the home, and provide complimentary bug spray. Despite these preventative measures, we cannot guarantee an insect-free stay.



If encountering insects inside the cabin would significantly impact your enjoyment, we kindly recommend choosing a different property.**





⸻



Location



• 1 mile to Carlisle Cove

• Near Cookson Bend & Six Shooter

• 45 min to Illinois River float trips

• Just over an hour from Tulsa



Lake Tenkiller is known for being less crowded than other Oklahoma lakes — but still offers restaurants, marinas, and fun summer energy.

Great place to stay

The house was perfect for our group of 6 guys. We were there fishing a kayak fishing tournament. There was plenty of parking and the house had everything we needed. The ping-pong table was a huge bonus. The hosts were very accommodating and quick to respond to any inquiries.

Family Pictures

We needed a place to meet up and spend the day with our grown children and grandchildren who were coming in from others states and towns. This house worked great for us! The older kids loved the game room and the large front yard, the 3 babies and 3 toddlers had plenty of bedrooms for power naps. A very nice kitchen and the 2 refrigerators were appreciated!

Tenkiller Trip

Good property for our guys fishing/golf trip. Only drawback was the 2nd shower (not in the master bedroom). It was small and with the water coming from overhead it made it a little difficult to use.

Beautiful property for a family gathering

We enjoyed our time at the cabin . We had family from 4 different states meet up there and there was plenty of room for us all. The only complaint we had, was the amount of rules we had to follow. We were really enjoying each other’s company in the front around the fire but we had to shut it down early to comply with the rules. Also, the walk way into the home is Kind of dangerous hauling luggage and needed supplies while you are staying.
