About this property
Lakefront Seclusion! - UPDATED! Dock, Hot tub, fire pit, pet friendly with fee,
3 bedroom, 3 bath
High Speed Internet - 1000 MBPS
Welcome to Mullins Cove. Relax on the large back deck or private dock and enjoy the scenic views of your own personal river and mountain getaway. Bring your boat or other water craft or rent one at the nearby marina. If you plan on bringing a boat, please contact us. A boat that has a deep draft may not be accessible to Mullins Cove.
There are 3 bedrooms, each with their own bath. The master has a king bed and is located on the upper level in addition to a living area with a sleeper sofa. The lower level has the kitchen, dining, main living room, game area along with the other two bedrooms, one with a king and one with a queen. Both downstairs bedrooms have on-suite bathrooms. There are two twin air mattresses for additional sleeping. We have satellite TV and Wi-Fi. Some cell service is patchy due to location and surrounding mountains. The kitchen is fully stocked with appliances, utensils, spices and condiments. We’ve provided plenty to keep you busy: corn hole, dart board, board games, cards, and books. If getting off the grid and relaxing in a beautiful setting is what you are looking for, then Canyon Cove is the place for you. The nearest shopping is 15-20 min away, so come prepared with groceries and supplies.
Canyon Cove is just 20ft from the water’s edge on a gently sloping lot. A wet weather spring flows through the professionally landscaped property into the lake. The house comes with boat dock, gas grill, fire pit (firewood provided), hot tub, and a gas fireplace in the den. Mullins Cove is an excellent location for fishing. The swimming situation is limited. The water level at the end of our dock varies from 3-5 feet and is controlled by the TVA. Unfortunately, everyone located on any Tennessee River waterway downstream of Chattanooga and into Alabama are affected by a non native invasive plant called Eurasian Milfoil. By mid-late July it takes over the shorelines and shallow areas of the Tn river. We spend significant amounts of time and money each year to keep our dock area clear, but by summers end it is sometimes a losing battle.
Mullins Cove is a 200+ acre lake/cove is fed by 11 mountain springs and the fishing is world class. A bait shop is at the interstate exit, so bring your fishing poles. Mullins Cove is in the heart the Tennessee River Gorge, a scenic causeway surrounded by 1,800 ft. mountains and cliffs, highest on the 650 miles of The Tennessee River. The scenic terrain of the Tennessee River Gorge creates a unique diversity of land forms. The bird watching is incredible here, especially water fowl. Other attractions close by are: Prentice Cooper State Park, rock climbing at the T Wall, hang gliding, paddle the Sequatchie River, South Cumberland State Park, Foster Falls, Racoon Mountain Caverns, Ketners Mill.
Load up the family and visit downtown Chattanooga which offers such attractions as the Chattanooga Aquarium, Creative Discovery Museum, Chattanooga Lookouts, Historic Bluff View Art District, an array of restaurants, and many other attractions. Just a little further is where you will find Ruby Falls, Rock City, and the Incline Railway. All of which are just 40 minutes away!
Parking is limited to 3 cars.
