About this property
Lakefront home, covered dock with swings, peaceful, quiet, wide cove.
Escape to the heart of Tims Ford Lake with this beautifully remodeled lakefront home, featuring a full-glass sunroom and a private dock nestled in a peaceful, wide cove. This serene setting offers ideal conditions for swimming, boating, and fishing. The home's location in a quiet cove provides a sense of seclusion-much like a cul-de-sac in a neighborhood-offering privacy and safety away from through-traffic. What truly sets this property apart is its exceptional tranquility, thanks to the absence of passing boat traffic, the peaceful "cabin in the woods" ambiance, and it's convenient proximity to local attractions.

About the host
Hosted by Phil Williams
My wife Paula and I are both retired engineers, and we’ve shared a lifelong love for Tims Ford Lake—vacationing here for 50 years. Boating, jet skiing, and spending time on the water with friends and family have always been a big part of our lives. We also enjoy home renovation projects, combining creativity with hands-on work.
Why they chose this property
My family has been vacationing at this lake house since my father built it in 1975, and it’s been our favorite summer tradition ever since. Set in a quiet, spacious cove with almost no boat traffic, the house offers one of the best swimming and fishing spots on Tims Ford Lake. The water is warm, clear, and perfect for swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding, fishing, and just relaxing by the dock—which has a shaded roof and two porch swings we love.
Fill your days with swimming, boating, waterskiing, fishing, bonfires, and simple, joyful meals together. It’s peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature—birds, fish, and quiet waters.
Beyond the lake, there’s golf at Tims Ford State Park, hiking trails nearby, a charming old-fashioned drive-in theater, and fun local spots like the Jack Daniels distillery. For dining, we enjoy the floating restaurants—Drafts & Watercrafts at Twin Creeks Marina and Blue Gill Grill at Holiday Landing. You can boat or drive to them. There are also some great restaurants on Winchester’s town square.
We provide a couple of kayaks, a paddle board, a canoe, and life jackets, and you can rent pontoons at nearby marinas if you want more lake time. For us, this house isn’t just a getaway—it’s a place full of memories and everything we love about summer.

What makes this property unique
The covered dock offers shaded comfort during the summer and features two large porch swings—perfect for relaxing while enjoying the sights and sounds of the lake and surrounding nature. The dock includes two kayaks for guests to use as well as tie-down hooks for securing watercraft.
The sunroom overlooks the lake and surrounding forest, offering great views in any season. Just outside, a lakeside firepit provides a cozy gathering spot for evenings under the stars.
