Great getaway cabin in the woods nestled on 38 acres, bordering 34,000 acres of Cherokee National Forest, the property offers privacy and seclusion. This beautiful cabin in the woods is located just below the South Holston Dam and across the street from the South Holston River, one of the finest trout streams in the East, and just around the corner from Tailwaters Lodge who manages this property. Check out the breath-taking view of the South Holston Lake at the top of the dam, hike or bike the many surrounding trails, spend time fishing the lake or the river, and take a drive into downtown Bristol TN/VA; the home of Country Music; this cabin offers all types of outdoor fun and activities. 

The cabin in the woods has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, family room, and a well appointed kitchen. Relax on the fantastic deck outside looking at the stars at night or sit around the outdoor fire pit. If it should rain, enjoy the propane gas fire log set inside and play games around the kitchen table. Pets are welcome; additional pet fee applies.

    The cabin is tucked way back in the woods far from other homes and has all of the amenities to accommodate a large family or some friends. We were unable to enjoy the area much because we attended the races, but would like to visit again to enjoy the nature and trails surrounding the cabin.

    Very responsive and flexible within reason. Enjoyed the long, private driveway. Pulled a bass boat up with no issues. Would recommend 100% and will likely revisit in the future.

    Very nice cabin for a fishing trip to Eastern Tennessee! The place is well stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The gas log fireplace is a nice feature. The secluded location at the top of a hill is awesome!

    My husband and I stayed at this cabin to celebrate our 35th anniversary. It was a perfect spot nestled in the woods, but yet, it was so open. The cabin itself had a wonderful porch deck, comfortable bedding the owner’s really thought about how too accommodate the individuals who will stay there, bathrooms are fully stocked, full body wash full shampoo. Kitchen is very well stocked had brand new ketchup, mustard mayonnaise waiting on us and they were the big ones not those cheap little ones. We did the fire pit and they have all the wood and kindling and newspaper everything that you can think to get it going!! You truly just need to go unpack and relax. We will be coming back.

    Loved the private drive to the house and the privacy of the location. We never heard any traffic noise or noise from others that live in the surrounding area. Enjoyed watching the rabbits and deer graze, along with listening to the songs of the many different birds. The house itself was terrific; clean and well stocked, even the furniture was comfortable. Planning on staying again as it was a terrific value.

    The perfect hideaway for peace and quiet - but only a short drive off the property to anything. The house was so accommodating and we enjoyed listening to rain on the metal roof after 2.5 days by the firepit in the heart of the forest. So much fun!!
