Summary:
Welcome to our fantastic waterfront Hiwassee River property with water access, and dock! Enjoy a four-bedroom, three-bath home complete with a dock and cabana down by the river.

With plenty of room inside and out, we know you, your family, and friends will enjoy slowing down and making memories in our home! We hope to host you.
The Space:
****NOTE: The hot tub at the home is undergoing maintenance and is not available for guest use.****
Sitting right on the beautiful Hiwassee River, the lovely scenery is the first thing to take. With views of the river, rolling hills, and mature trees surrounding our home, it is TN nature at its finest. Our multi-level home offers multiple southern-style porches, allowing guests to spend ample time outside. The main level offers open concept living. Enjoy relaxing in the cozy living room with a love seat, sofa, and flat-screen TV complete with Roku. The eat-in kitchen offers doors leading directly to the beautiful screened-in porch. It is sure to be a favorite spot during your stay! The lower level of the home has a cozy den, a full bathroom, and bedroom #1 with two full beds. The main level of the house also contains a full bathroom and bedroom #2 with a queen-size bed. There is a steeper set of stairs (this could be challenging for elderly folks or anyone with mobility issues) leading to the upper level, which has a jack n jill bathroom shared between bedroom #3 with a king-size bed and bedroom #4 with two twins over full bunk beds.
Complete with its dock and cabana down at the river, our home will surely have you living the Hiwassee Highlife!
We love our dock, but it does require going up and down a large flight of stairs to gain access. Please make sure you are comfortable with stairs if you would like to use the dock!
A boat ramp is one mile away, perfect for larger boats. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions! We look forward to hosting you!
***Our home has satellite internet and can be spotty.***
***Please note: our home is on a slough. There is little to no water for dock use from mid October-May. Water levels begin rising in April and decreasing in October.***

Communication with the property managers was exceptional. The pictures fairly depicted the property. The house was located in a super quiet and peaceful area. One drawback was the internet speed, it was slow but given the location I think that kind of goes with the turf of living in a clearly natural setting. I was between four and five stars on this unit.
Loved this property and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to have a quiet getaway. Great accommodations and great communication with the host. I would recommend bringing groceries and making sure you plan to cook at the property, as access to restaurants and delivery services is limited. Great time with the family and again, would highly recommend this property.
The house was perfect for our family to gather for a memorial service for a family member.
Nice lake property to get. Away
The property was clean, the hosts were easy to communicate with, and overall a nice weekend!
Enjoyable family vacation
Our stay was okay. Checking in was easy however as soon as we arrived we realized the photos made it look better than it actually was. The lake was completely dried up so any hopes we had of fishing were out the window. They charge for dog poop in the yard but all of the neighbors let their dogs run loose so there were droppings everywhere by the time we arrived. The house was cleaned but not well, everything in the kitchen was greasy and their were piles of dog hair behind the couches. The beds were immensely uncomfortable since the mattresses had indents in them. Lastly the most disappointing part was it was advertised as close to Chattanooga but it's still an hour drive.
We enjoyed our stay and everything was as listed. The only thing I was concerned about was the contract and waivers seemed to be a little overboard. There were a lot of rules that had fines or other charges if we did something wrong based on all the rules. We always try to leave a property as we found it, clean & tidy, but I was a little concerned that we might accidentally break one of their rules.
The space was large enough to accommodate our extended family. The room with the 2 sets of bunk beds was perfect for all of the kids to be together. Overall it was the perfect space for us.
This is a beautiful place to stay. Very peaceful. Home is outstanding
Listing just as shown and advertised. Beautiful location. Very happy with our stay.
It was an amazing stay, everything was as described, the only things I would change is; internet strength lol and there were a lot of spider webs and dust on all furniture outside, so we didn't get to enjoy it as much, but it was still gorgeous, and we would stay here again.
Everything was great with our experience! Very responsive to our questions and requests. Even went above and beyond to get the hot tub fixed before we arrived. Thanks much!
Cousins Weekend 2022
Overall a great stay! It was a rather long walk to the river but it was still beautiful! Would be great to see the water from the house- just a suggestion.
We loved staying. The home is beautiful and we enjoyed the quite. The home was cleaned inside although the outside had lots of cob webs we couldn't sit on the front porch but enjoyed the screened in porch in the back. The owns were very sweet and checked in on us.
The house, while 30 min from and stores was perfect for us. We rented this place for a long weekend to catch up with a friend and her children. We were traveling from WA state and she came up from Georgia. The 4 boys ages 8-11 played in the basement and outside on the dock and stairs. The river was low this time of year so they played along the shore climbing the steep bank and testing their outdoorsman skills. Several trips up and down the stairs to the dock was a good workout for us all. The stairs are sturdy and in good repair. The kitchen had everything we needed and there was plenty of dishes and seating for everyone. We put all 4 boys in the bunkbed room upstairs for the sake of equality. We adults used the other room with a king bed on the top floor and the queen room on the middle and main floor. We left the bedroom in the basement with 2 queen beds empty only because the boys would have fought over who got it. They did play in the basement and kept most of their noise down there. The hot tub was nice and the lid was easy to open and replace. The screen didn’t show anything on the display but there was a separate thermometer. Also you can just stick your hand in the water to see how warm it is. Other than the display everything else seemed to work. The foosball table was a basic one. It had air hockey and pool options as well but it is a pretty small table. It looked relatively new but already had one broken part. It is still entertaining and fun for young kids though. Oh! The screen porch was perfect! Right off the kitchen with its own stairs down. Overall this was a good place to spend time with family and friends.
