About this property

Modern Cabin on the Beautiful Ocoee River

Welcome to the Jungalow! A 1152 s.f. 4 bedroom, 1 bath cabin right on the beautiful Ocoee River. Come enjoy all the Cherokee National Forest has to offer whether that is hiking, fishing, tubing, kayaking, or swimming. The house is located in quiet Benton, TN, which is near both Cleveland and Chattanooga, TN. The Hiwassee river, also only a short 10-minute drive away, is great for fishing or tubing.

The Jungalow sits on stilts overlooking the Ocoee River with a large deck where you can enjoy your morning coffee and the sunrise, watching the water go by. Later in the day, river stairs will take you right into the water where you can cool off or enjoy some fishing (bass, bluegill, sunfish) or walk over to the neighborhood boat ramp to scope out the tubing access. Gather around the firepit with cooking grill at night with your favorite beverage and watch the sunset behind the house! Sit and relax at the brand new outdoor covered bar and barbeque shed! The Jungalow has a large 1-acre yard and provides plenty of space for lawn games. We provide four sit-on-top kayaks (two single person kayaks, one double seater, one kid-sized) and a variety of tubes for guests to enjoy, as well as cornhole boards. There are two traditional bedrooms and two open-air (no doors for privacy) bedroom loft spaces. The Master has a king-sized bed, the second bedroom has two twin beds and the lofts each have a full-sized bed. The bathroom has a combination tub/shower as well as a washer and dryer for guest use. All beds have Dreamcloud hybrid mattresses. The couch is large enough for someone to sleep on if desired, though it is not a sleeper sofa.

Linens are provided.
Basic soaps/detergents are provided.
Coffee and a coffee grinder are provided!


The house has Starlink wifi internet and a smart TV that can be used for streaming.

This house was amazing! The pictures don't do it justice how clean, spacious, and family friendly this house is. With the river right in the back yard and plenty of tubes and kayaks to use, this house is very family friendly. Also, the location is perfect for exploring the Ocoee and Hiwassee rivers. 10/10 would recommend this house to anyone!

Labor Day Weekend

We spent a long weekend in the area to hike and raft. We could not have asked for a better location. The house was extremely clean and well appointed. We spent one day hiking and another rafting. In the evenings we were able to relax listening to the water behind us. It was absolute perfect. If we come back to the area we will definitely book here again.

ocoee river gem

We had a wonderful stay at the jungalow. I couldn't believe all the amenities the host provided. The river was fun to hang out in with the tubes provided, I just wish we would have started earlier as the river rose pretty quickly and the current got strong. We also enjoyed the fire pit. I highly recommend this rental.

Summer River Getaway

My husband and I spend a lot of time outdoors. We’ve been wanting to explore the Ocoee and Parksville Lake for several years. We found this little gem on Vrbo, and decided to book based on the amenities. We knew we wanted to float the lower Ocoee and this location had the kayaks and tubes we needed. This saved us from having to pack a lot of extra junk just to get out of town for a few nights. The house was cozy and clean, and the location was perfect. We spent both days on the river and lake, with a short hike in between. Relaxing on the back porch in the evenings, listening to the river flow, was the perfect end to each adventure. Exactly what we needed! We will likely come back again, next time with our children.

Bad Experience with Property Manager

First, the property is well stocked and the cabin is very cute. My biggest issue with things and I typically never write reviews is my communication with the host. My son got sick and I cleaned it all up as well as washed the comforter twice. The host messaged me that she needed to charge me $150 for a stained comforter. First, this was a TWIN bed. Second, the duvet cover was not stained at all. Third, the inside comforter was what she claimed was stained but was a simple white inside comforter so in no world should that cost 150 and also could easily be bleached washed and sanitized in the wash and then covered again with the duvet cover. I told her I was happy to replace the comforter even given that fact. I found the most expensive comforter on amazon and that was less than 75 so I offered that amount. She refused to send me a receipt (she only sent me a pricey "cost" snapshot of a comforter for 139, but not a receipt). She then charged my card $150 when I was trying to come to some type of agreement. I am a person who believes in doing right by people so this who experience felt very off putting as well as shady business. There is ZERO reason why a twin comforter underneath a duvet should cost 150$ and I find that to be just poor business and character.

We had an amazing stay at the Jungalow! So many amenities and the location is perfect. Having a well stocked vacation home when you have kids is so important. Maggie does a great job of thinking of all the small things. Everything is as described. There is something for everyone to do. Our kiddos was super sad to leave. Our only regret was not staying longer.

Family staycation

I booked this rental for Memorial Day weekend for my family. It was an absolute wonderful stay, we had so much fun. Everything needed to have a stress free weekend was included (kayaks, life vests, tubes, firewood, yard games, etc). The property was extremely clean. I would absolutely recommend staying here and would be back.

We stayed here as we have family on the same street. Quiet street but so close to all kinds of hiking and outdoor activities. House was great with lots to do outside, just not this time of year. Make sure you set nest and hold temp correctly as we woke up to frigid mornings.

Right on the beautiful Ocoee river! Endless fishing, tubing, kayaking and swimming fun! Keep an eye out for all the birds and wildlife, especially the occasional bald eagle flying down the river!
