About this property

Just show up and relax in this 4BR 2.5BATH fully remodeled home with a separate kids retreat (bring their game station and hook it up to our TV). The view is incredible and as you walk down the gentle sloped yard to enter beautiful Lake Cherokee (59 miles long). We have just installed a brand-new boat dock that is 32' X 32' with a 27' X 11' boat slip. (Since Lake Cherokee is a reservoir water levels vary- best time May-August) You can kayak on one of our 5 available kayaks or 2 paddle boards. There is also a fire pit that you can roast marshmallows by the fire and enjoy the sunset. If you like you can even fish off the shoreline. Panther Creek State Park is only 15 minutes away where you can enjoy hiking multiple hiking trails. The Smoky Mountains and Pigeon Forge is approximately 1 hour away. You can rent a pontoon boat from the marina that is 7 minutes away. After relaxing at the house, you may not want to leave.

Lake House

We had a fantastic time with family from Ohio, Texas and Massachusetts, ages 7 to 96. There was lots of room for the 11 of us. The 4 kids loved the bunk bed room and everyone enjoyed the kayaks. It was a short drive to the marina, where we rented a pontoon boat for a day, and the grocery store. Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg were not far away. Michelle was very prompt in answering any questions we had. If we are ever going to that area, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Great Lake

Lake was amazing. House was older but had many updates making it comfortable and enjoyable. The back porch and kayaks/paddle boards were used daily. We had a rough start due to prior guest activity but the owner worked hard to get us comfortable and enjoying our stay as quickly as possible,which we did. Thank you!

Summer getaway

Our family of 4 enjoyed this property. The home was really clean and well maintained. All the amenities of home. The 4 bedrooms were great and our nieces came to visit for a night and the bedroom with the bunk beds worked out perfectly. Unfortunately, the weather didn’t cooperate, so we didn’t get to enjoy the kayaks and paddle boards much. We did find hiking in Panther Creek State Park which was very close by. We did have some sunshine on the last day and rented a pontoon boat and went tubing. The lake was quiet and not crowded. We also spent some time driving a little over an hour to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. We had a great time and thank you for sharing your property with us.

Nice house, nice host, ok Lake

The layout of the house was great for our family. Everything was on one floor with the bedrooms and living room on the opposite ends of the house was great for earlier kid bed times. The house had recently renovated finishes with nice, appliances. The bed in the master was very comfortable and the shower water pressure was fantastic. My main criticism is less with the house so much as the lake/town. The shore of the lake was a bit rocky and more dirt than sand. I think with older kids it would have been fine, but our kids are both younger. We ended up doing more day trips than hanging on the lake as a result. There wasn’t much to do in the immediate surrounding area but we ended up doing day trips to Pigeon forge (~45 mins) and Knoxville (~30 mins). There was a decent strip of restaurants/ice cream shops in Madisonville as well (~20 mins). Michelle was a great host and was able to get us into the house early.

Family Christmas Vacation

Wonderful property with good amenities and a lovely view - even in the winter. Owner Michelle was incredibly responsive when we had a slight issue - great communication. Would highly recommend this place and will book again in the future.
