Dog Friendly Lakefront Cabin with Amazing Sunset Views & New Boat dock.

This family cabin is nestled among almost 2 acres of old growth hardwood trees on the main channel of Cherokee Lake. Sitting on the deck, you feel like you are uplifted in the treetops. You can see the beauty of the Cumberland Mountains on the horizon, just beyond the Cherokee Dam. The vivid sunset colors in the summer seem to change by the minute, enjoying theat view is a great way to finish the day. With that being said, it is a perfect getaway for nearly every season. The cabin offers the opportunity to disconnect from your everyday demands and reconnect with family. The cabin is located on a windy country road with large wooded lots. Deer, turkey, and other wildlife are commonly seen when driving through the area. During the summer months, you can relax on the deck, explore nature on the property, and catch fireflies at night. The summer days also provide an opportunity to spend the day on Cherokee Lake which is a TVA reservoir. Swimming in the lake is part of our daily routine. We sometimes take a night swim under the stars. Kayaks are provided as a free activity and pontoon boats can be rented from the marina across the cove or Cedar Hill Boat Dock. Cedar Hill has great customer service and great prices. Nearby Panther Creek State Park is a great place to take a hike or swim in the water surrounded by the wooded hills. It is a great destination if you rent a pontoon boat. Highly recommended. The beautiful large deck overlooking the lake makes a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or some casual outdoor dining. The property is mostly secluded with no neighbors on either side. There are frequently deer roaming in the early morning and evening. The large trees are beautiful and keep things fairly cool in the summer with abundant shade. Just spending the day playing on the lake, taking a nap, reading a book, or playing games

The cabin's interior is comfortable and cozy. The home is more of an experience to disconnect and enjoy nature. There is lots of privacy here. The home features 3 bedrooms and one bathroom. The home is appropriately 900sq feet. There is also an amazing outdoor shower with hot and cold water overlooking the lake. The outdoor shower has full privacy with large walls and elevation. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to make cooking simple. There is no interior dining table, we do have tray tables & fold out tables available. There is lots of outdoor seating & place to eat. There is no dishwasher and we keep the refrigerator on the covered porch to maximize the view and space the inside the house. There is a new washer and dryer for your convenience. We also have fiber optic internet with WiFi and a smart TV. We have a gradual slope to the lake to enjoy kayaking, fishing, and swimming. We have 4 adult and 1 child kayak available for use. Enjoy our cabin for a fun family vacation, a fishing week with the boys, or a relaxing weekend away with the girls.

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, most visited park in the United States is only 45 minutes away from our cabin. We highly recommend spending part of a day by the Little Pigeon mountain stream in the Chimneys Picnic area. Grills are available for every picnic table.

Loved our stay, again! The large deck was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the gorgeous lake views. The house was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. We used the kayaks this time, and the brand new dock is a fantastic addition! Can’t wait to come back!

This lakehouse was the best rental we have ever found w/seamless check-in. The owners have thought of all the ammenities, with all the comforts of home but fearuring and focusing on the lake life. The photos and description don't even do it justice, it's even better. The accesibility of the lake on your own BiG private dock w/private beach were priceless. The HUGE deck overlooking the water was where we spent 90% of our time when not lakeside swimming floating or sitting on the dock, or kayaking. HIGHLY recommend!!! Thank you from a couple of Hoosiers who needed a calming, relaxing, easy respite- it had everything we could have asked for, and more.
The deck overlooking the water is spacious. Coffee mornings, dinner evenings, a balance if sun + shade and even during rainy times we sat here. SO many different chairs to choose from + a swing!
From our dock....so relaxing g watching the boats come + gon from marina just across the cove.
We kayaked almost daily! Lake is clean, accessible beautiful, placid, non-busy AND HUGE! *(recommend water shoes)
The marina and cool restaurant "Off The Hook" from the dock.

This place is amazing! So clean. So welcoming. Just fantastic. The check-in was easy. It says dog friendly, but that's only part of it. They provide towels just for the dog. Our German Shepherd loves water. She spent most time in the water playing, splashing, "biting" the water. She loved it. It appears certain parts of this location have been recently remodeled as everything seemed so new and fresh. Evenings on the deck were wonderful. So peaceful. We saw so many deer running on the property. Just a fantastic stay. We'll be back...

Relaxing lakeside getaway

Cabin was perfect! Well appointed with everything you might need and less than 10 minutes to grocery store. Marina across the lake has a restaurant, too! Kayaking was super fun and the onsite laundry was much appreciated! Our favorite place was the large deck. It’s partially covered so even on rainy days, the deck is the place to be! Thank you!!

Perfect!

We loved everything about our stay! The view is absolutely gorgeous. The location is off the beaten path but close enough to be able to run to town for whatever we needed. There's a marina right across the bay for pontoon rentals that we went through for a day on the lake and it was perfect. I highly recommend a stay at this cabin!

Amazing Views

Awesome property with amazing views and tons of wildlife. My wife and 2 kids spent 5 days at the cabin, we loved it! We have seen numerous deer, turtles, ducks, all kinds of birds and an eagle. The cabin is fully stacked with everything you need from spices, coffee maker, extra towels, plenty of kitchen utensils and an AMAZING outdoor shower. The deck is huge with ample space for the entire family with a beautiful view of the lake and pretty sunsets. The property is exactly as described in the listing. Loved our entire trip. Thank you!
