Thank you for your four star view! Yes we love the simplicity of this cabin! It's a tiny home, 600 ft² with a dock that goes right onto the water and your feet never has to touch the grass! With the large boulder fireplace, stand up custom shower and cute decor we are glad that you loved it!

Amazing Cabin

We had a wonderful time at this little Cabin. The lake view was breathtaking with Geese and Ducks covering the pond. So nice to sit on the private dock in the morning with a nice cup of coffee watching the Geese fly in. Very close to Ruby Falls, Rock City, and downtown Chattanooga, TN. If you are looking to unplug and enjoy life, I highly recommend staying here!
