Silent Canoe features 5 bedrooms & 4.5 baths, including 3 king suites, a bunk room, and a private loft. There are lake views from nearly every room, a wrap-around covered porch, a covered dining porch, a game room, and a fire pit!

The home is on 8 acres, with cleared nature trails, including a .25 mile path to the lake!

One king bedroom with attached bath is on the main level and is accessible without going up any stairs. (There is one small step up onto the porch from the upper driveway.) There are 3 bedrooms and bathrooms on the 2nd floor and a 5th bedroom on the 3rd level. Along with one bedroom, the main level also includes the living and dining room, kitchen, half bath, laundry room, and one more private room that has a futon and a table for 4, which can serve as an office, extra dining space, game room, and/or can sleep one person.

There is also a ping pong table and arcade-style basketball in the garage level for extra fun, as well as a corn hole set.

The kitchen is well-equipped with cooking and dining ware, a 4-slice toaster, and a drip coffee maker. There is also a gas grill on the covered dining porch.

Less than 10 miles off the Baxter exit, 7.5 miles to Cookeville Boat Dock, and 25 minutes to Cookeville.

Notes:
Four-wheel drive is not required to get to the house, but good tires are. The driveway is gravel and fairly steep. RVs are not permitted.

Security camera disclosure: Two security cameras are located on the exterior of the home, facing away from the house. One is mounted on the wrap-around porch, facing the upper parking area. The other is mounted under the wrap-around porch, facing the lower parking area. Both cameras record when motion activated and are operational 24/7. There are no interior devices or cameras. Cameras may not be obstructed, moved, or turned off.

Be prepared to be fully surrounded by nature! This means all the wonderful views and sounds, but there are also bugs and critters who share the land.

Property trails are open through fall and winter, but please use extra caution as you walk over the leaves. They hide rocks and small holes and ditches.

Infants and toddlers are welcome in our home. Please note that the home is not baby-proofed though, and there are long flights of stairs both inside and outside.

    You know how you see pictures on a VRBO listing and they look amazing and then you get to the place and it’s just a total letdown? NOT THIS ONE!! The pictures actually don’t do this place justice. It’s even BETTER in person. It’s so amazing that when I posted about it on social media, at least five of my friends wanted the listing details! You’re going to love this place and the owner was great to work with!!

    This is the perfect spot for families to gather. The views were beautiful and the house was spacious and well appointed with everything you need. We were also very impressed by how clean and well maintained everything was!

    There is not a bad thing I can say about the house itself! It was way better than even pictures showed. The driveway is definitely no joke and was challenging for some cars (even SUV's) but everyone made it. And we would still stay there again!

    Great views. Great location. Spent the week here after Christmas thru New Years with 4 generations of family and really enjoyed it. House was great and also enjoyed hiking and seeing all the waterfalls that are in the area.

    This is a great house and setting on Center Hill Lake. Big and roomy with plenty of amenities. Great host- very responsive and proactive. This was our second time to hold a retreat here. Great spaces inside and out- decks, firepit, trail. Thanks Grant!

    Host was accessible and easy to communicate with. There was an issue with the entry code upon arrival and Grant promptly resolved the issue. Beautiful home. Very clean. Large bedrooms. Views from the porch were amazing.

    Our extended family of 10 all had a great time this past week. The trail down to the water is steep, but no problem to manage. We recommend tying a long rope to a tree to help less-mobile folks navigate
