About this property

Roddy Wilderness Quiet Quaint Home in the woods.

This property may seem old-fashioned initially, but it has been given a modern facelift. Its location in tranquil Rhea County offers easy access to town, scenic hiking trails, the stunning Laural Falls, the rugged Pocket Wilderness, the refreshing waters of Watts Bar Lake, and the majestic Tennessee River. Whether you're a family looking to settle in or an angler in town for a tournament, this house provides a perfect retreat. Its seclusion ensures privacy and serenity.
As the sun rises in the morning, step out onto the back deck and inhale the fresh air. Take a seat and let the beauty of nature surround you as you sip on a warm cup of coffee. Observe the birds as they flutter from branch to branch, chirping their songs and bringing life to the serene setting. Listen carefully to the rustling of the leaves as the gentle breeze brushes past, creating a symphony of nature's music. Allow yourself to be fully immersed in the peacefulness of the moment, and let it rejuvenate your soul for the day ahead.
When the warmer months arrive, the chickens eagerly share their breakfast ideas with you. The friendly hens are a delight to watch and bring joy to our home.

Family Wedding Trip

We had a wonderful experience at the house. Great location for meeting up with family. The new deck was relaxing and beautiful. Our favorite part were the goats and chicken, they were a fun addition.

Hope to stay again!

We had a wonderful stay and couldn't of asked for a better location! Unfortunately we didn't get to explore much of the grounds cause it rained the whole weekend but the goats were awesome! Amenities were good and the host was easy to communicate with... definitely hope to stay here again the next time we head to Dayton.

Great communication with owner

It is challenging to get 2 or 3 bass boats and trucks into driveways, but we still made it work. Owner was very easy and helpful.

Clean and spacious

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and had plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Our kids loved visiting the goats and chickens. We even had fresh eggs for breakfast. Kitchen was well stocked, we cooked a couple of our meals, it was nice they had everything we needed. An added plus was, all rooms had a tv.

Comfortable & great Tennessee vibe

Traveling through to Florida with our 2 dogs with a day visit to dayton Tennessee to visit more family. Very comfortable...even our sickly little dog relaxed and was stress free. We loved seeing the goats & feeding them animal crackers and felt right at home. It is a neighborhood on a deadend road, so very quiet. We loved it and booked again next week for our drive back to michigan

Great home!

This was a wonderful home to stay at! We loved the goats and chickens, we even collected some eggs from the chickens! The house was clean, the host was friendly and great at communicating with us. We would love to stay here every time we come to Dayton! We especially loved giving the goats animal crackers, theyre very friendly! Its also nice that the house is pet friendly, they even supplied a kennel for us to keep our dog in while we were away from the house!

Great Gem

Found myself needing a short term rental for 3 weeks due to new housing delay. From the time of reserving until leaving, Lisa was very responsive and helpful. Her home is a sweet gem. It was clean and well equipped. Plenty of space for me and my family. And loved the goats and chickens. Highly recommended to anyone looking in the Dayton area.
