I stayed in this cabin, and I really loved it. It was very clean, beautiful, and comfortable. The view of the river was absolutely amazing and very relaxing.There was also a great place to park the boat, which made everything very convenient. I truly enjoyed my stay here, and I would definitely love to come back again in the future.

I would rebook again! This was my first rental to provide more than just starter items for our stay (trash bags, detergents, toiletries, paper towels, etc.). The kitchen was above and beyond complete with dishes, pots/pans, crockpot, hot air-fryer, etc. Bath towels and linens were plentiful and great quality. The fenced in patio was perfect for our fur babies. The fireplace by the water was in a great area with relaxing furniture being available to enjoy. An excellent home to be shared by multi-families.

This was the perfect place to unwind. It was bright and airy but also cozy. The kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials. The sheets on the master bed were fantastic, so soft. The master shower...WOW!!!!We spent most of our time on the outside deck. Our girls (Freya & Siggie -GSD) loved running around in the fenced in area. They also LOVED the water. The house was very clean and a broom and vacuum were available for picking up pet hair- thank goodness.Would totally recommend and we can wait to go back.

The house is just as it looks in the photos. ABSOLUTELY beautiful! The view of the water and sky at both sunrise and sunset are gorgeous. Watching the deer all day around the yard was great.

Perfect Trip

Your place was great for our yearly 'guys' trip that we take. This long weekend is one we always look forward to and your place did not disappoint! We enjoyed the views, the house, the amenities, and everything your place provided. We definitely made memories and appreciate your hospitality. I will definitely recommend this place to others.

Amazing Lake Front Property

This cabin was amazing! The views and wildlife were beautiful. There was a family of deer out back throughout our stay. Sun rise over the lake in the morning, breathtaking. The beds were firm and comfortable. Communication with the host was easy and quick to respond. We will for sure be back!

Wonderful location! Young adult kids were able to kayak around the bend of the lake. It was sad that we were not able to enjoy the fire pit area, but definitely next time for sure! Woke up to deers grazing in the backyard and the dew from the lake was beautiful!

Watts Bar

We greatly enjoyed our time in this Rockwood home. The host has put together a beautiful setting with an incredibly well equipped house. Every detail was thought out and we had everything we could possibly need. One of the best rentals we have ever stayed at. Thank you for hosting us and we hope to be back!

We came up from Jacksonville Beach for my sister’s wedding and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. The cabin is tucked right at the mouth of Eagle’s Nest Cove, offering peaceful mornings and stunning lake views. The open layout and massive deck made it easy to relax, and we spent unforgettable evenings with family around the lakeside fire pit.The hosts were incredibly friendly and accessible, with timely responses and thoughtful check-ins to make sure our trip was going smoothly. The fenced yard was perfect for our dogs, and everything inside was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully arranged. It felt like home the moment we arrived. A beautiful spot to celebrate, unwind, and make lasting memories. We’d absolutely stay again!

We enjoyed our stay so much. The owners have done such an excellent job with the cabin. It was perfect for our family of 4 (and also our extended family who would come by to visit!!). We have family that live in the area that we only get to see once a year so this cabin was accommodating to those daily visits from them which we are grateful for. The cabin was super clean and the owners have provided pretty much everything you would need. The location is also perfect and before I forget…I do want to mention the walk down to the water is at an incline so it was somewhat of a trek for us non-athletic people. Make sure you have what you need before heading down to the dock!! We loved that it sits on a cove though….very peaceful and hardly any boat traffic….which made us comfortable letting our kids kayak on their own. We made lots of beautiful memories. Thank you!!

We had such a wonderful stay! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that so much thought and care had gone into making this a comfortable and welcoming place.The bedding was incredibly cozy, and the house was stocked with everything we could have needed from extra blankets and pillows to snacks, trash bags, and detergent. It was so refreshing not to have to worry about packing every little thing. I am a clean freak and this place was spotless inside as well. The lake access was fantastic, especially the swimming platform, which made spending time on the water so enjoyable. We also loved the fenced-in yard, which was perfect for our dog and gave us extra peace of mind.Every little detail made our stay feel special, and it truly felt like a home away from home. We can’t recommend this place enough and would absolutely stay here again!
