About this property

Lago Vista Center Hill Lake

Welcome to Lago Vista, a stunning 3-bedroom, 2 1/2-bath log cabin nestled amidst the serene beauty of a wooded lot beside the lake. While lake views may be somewhat restricted during the summer months, they transform into a breathtaking spectacle in the winter. Imagine your days spent listening to the soothing sounds of boats and water gently caressing the shores below the cabin.

Rustic Elegance: Lago Vista is a testament to rustic elegance, featuring all hardwood and tile flooring, ceiling fans, a captivating stone fireplace, granite countertops, and vaulted ceilings. Every inch of this cabin exudes charm and comfort.

Comfortable Accommodations: This beautiful cabin comfortably sleeps 6 and is tastefully decorated to create a welcoming ambiance. The master bedroom is a sanctuary with a king bed and a Jacuzzi bathtub, perfect for unwinding after a day of adventures.

Entertainment and Amenities: Lago Vista offers an open floor plan, a collection of board games, WiFi, a flat-screen HDTV with cable and DVD player, a CD player, and a wood-burning fireplace to keep you entertained and cozy. The private deck is surrounded by serene wooded surroundings and features a small table and a gas grill for outdoor cooking.

Well-Equipped Kitchen: The kitchen is fully stocked and ready to help you whip up delicious meals.

Community Playground and Golf: Just 6 miles from the cabin, you'll find a community playground and a golf course for added enjoyment.

Outdoor Pleasures: Relax on the great 3/4 wrap-around porch, where you can savor the tranquility of the woods, or gather around the outdoor fire pit for unforgettable evenings.

Nice Getaway

Having an SUV, it was actually fun to go up the infamous final hill to get to the cabin. I really enjoyed the fireplace, and the cabin was as advertised. Nice view of the lake at sunrise, and it was a great place to get away.

Dirty Hilltop

This property was at the top of a mountain that took 30 minutes to get to from the main road. The road went from a two-lane road to a one lane road that my husband described as a goat trail. When you met another vehicle head on, there was nowhere for either vehicle to go. The last section to get to the property was a dirt incline that was so steep we wouldn't have gotten up it had we not been driving a four wheel drive truck. The house was not clean. You could see that the table had not been wiped down as it had rings on it from a bowl. There was something on the floor that looked like a cocoa puff, the ice bucket in the freezer was filthy, and the tub obviously was not cleaned as there was hair all around the inside of it. We were so disappointed we left on Monday morning after only getting there Friday evening. I do not recommend this property to anyone.

March getaway

Everything was great well stocked with everything we needed. Only complaint was what I am assuming was remnants of glass from the fireplace door that was on the floor and one chair. The stay was wonderful and relaxing.

A Great Cabin on the Lake

This comfortable cabin kept us cool after our adventures during the heat wave. Well stocked and nice furniture. We enjoyed our time. That road right before arriving the cabin needs attention. It should be just turned to gravel and the concrete pulled out. Big ledges and holes to traverse. As the listing said DO NOT rent this if you have a low clearance vehicle. Luckily we had 4x4 trucks.

Great Weekend Getaway

My wife and I live a little closer to Nashville, so this was a perfect weekend get away for us and a quick drive. Cabin is nicely furnished and very homey. The master bed was way too hard for my taste and the water was a little too low in the hot tub to run the jets without splashing, but were still quite satisfied with our stay. The cabin was nice and quiet and relatively private, the lake is visibile from the cabin. After you're off the main highway, that last couple miles of road does turn to a one lane paved and then kinda transitions to a private gravel drive going up to the cabin. We were fine in the Fusion but familiar and comfortable navigating that. Not unusal at all to see a gravel drive up a hill or mountain in rural TN. Great cabin!

A little disappointed

They main reason I rented this place was for the hot tub. I was ice cold when we checked in Friday, we increased the heat and the next morning it was still ice cold. Maintenace came but we still cook not use it until morning we checked out. The shower in the master bath was not working right so we had to use the upstairs bath it had no towels just a hand towel and wash cloth. The road leading to the house is very bad.

Misleading Views and location but still a nice Cabin

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very Nice Cabin. Very Rough Road leading to it. Don't expect to walk to the water easily based on the pictures they provide of the lake. Could not see the lake from our cabin (Possibly in deep winter when no leaves are on the trees) Queen bed is worn out and you sink towards the middle of the mattress making it difficult for 2 people to sleep in it. Well stocked and the Hot Tub is suitable for up to 4 people comfortably.

Nice Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Had a great time getting away for a few days. The house had everything we needed. The drive to it is very secluded, but that was great for us and why we came. Only issue we ran across was that the water access area shown in photos was dirty (broken bottles, old tire) so perhaps if that is advertised as part of the experience, I would suggest maintaining to some degree? It also might be time to replace some of the kid toys, most are broken, but that didn't hurt our experience. The hot tub with big wrap around porch was a kid and adult favorite alike.
