About this property

Our Soothing Sunsets Lake House is available for your retreats or vacations!

Year-round, the Soothing Sunset Lake House is a wonderful place to relax and spend time with family and friends. Now that springtime is here, my Soothing Sunsets Lakehouse could be the perfect spot for your friends and family to gather together to enjoy a time of relaxation, game playing, fishing on the dock, or just having a good time together. In the fall, when hunting season happens, or winter when the snow falls, the Lakehouse is a great place to be to hang out or just to enjoy the serenity of the lake. Now that spring is here and summer is around the corner, there are many changes happening at our lake house! We have just installed a Generac generator. We have also put a gas range with a double oven in the kitchen. On cool mornings or evenings, we've installed a gas insert into the fireplace which makes the home more cozy! This month, we are having our old dock taken down, and putting in a larger 2 slip dock with a deck. We hope to have this completed by May 1.

Our beautiful lakefront home has a sunroom, recreation room, living room, fully equipped kitchen, large counter high dining table, 3 large bedrooms, and 2 1/2 baths. We have beds for 10 guests. There’s a wonderfully comfortable sleeping chair in the living room for someone who stays awake longer than the rest, or who just likes to wake up with the sunshine.

Step out from the sun room to a large deck overlooking another smaller deck with hot tub. The air is so clean and there is only the sounds of birds singing to make your visit so enjoyable. You might even see a wild deer or two.

Our recreation room has a pool table, dart board, and media center with a 65" television with Satellite TV, two 3-seat sofas, a swivel rocker with rocking footstool, a large bar equipped with stemware and beer glasses with two bar stools; and a pub table with three stools. There’s a mini fridge and a chest freezer in the recreation room to hold your food and drinks whenever you need them.

If you need to do work, there is a desk that is available in the house. Internet and Wifi is available as well.

Our home has a private dock to fish from. We are in the process of replacing our dock with a longer and bigger dock for more fun on the water! Our new dock will have two slips and a deck to enjoy fishing or swimming in the lake. In the fall and winter, the water is lower; but sitting on the dock can still be enjoyable.

Weather can be a challenge in the fall, so sitting in the sunroom with a hot cup of coffee/tea/cocoa while reading one of the many books available to our guests is a great way to relax and still enjoy the serenity of the lake. We have games for the family to play, DVD's of movies to watch, a pool table and dart board to keep you entertained. With three separate living areas, you should never feel crowded in the house.

If you want to get away and see some of the local sites, I have put together a large notebook of useful information to include where to go golfing; shopping; wine tasting; dining; antiquing; hiking; and gambling. I've done all the research for you. These places and things to do include the surrounding area and Nashville.

If staying indoors and just chilling, my kitchen is perfect for your needs. My kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, cookware, coffee maker, ice-tea maker and water kettle. I supply the coffee pods and teas for my guests.

There is no limit to your vacation entertainment. If you have questions about what to do, where to go, what to bring - I am just a phone call away! My guests are treated with a brief explanation of important details, and then you are left to enjoy your memorable vacation!

Do not miss out on an amazing opportunity to rest, relax, and recharge. Our friends and family have all said this place is amazing. I hope you find it amazing as well. I will gladly answer any questions you may have about my property and the fun to have there!

Big Sandy
Well we loved the property. Margaret is wonderful to work with. She’s very upbeat and what hospitality! The home itself had a relaxed vibe. Loved the view from the sun room facing the lake. The little town of Big Sandy has a nice grocery store-Cash Saver. Great prices and owners. Mom and Pops Pizza was delicious. Need ice cream? Homemade baked goods? Go to Adens! Loved that place. And the wildlife refuge you’ve got to stop in and see! Hummingbirds, Bald Eagles we saw sipping coffee on back porch. Wonderful!

Amazing Home
If you are looking for a spacious, clean, well stocked home with a gorgeous view… book this home! My family takes an annual trip for our dad to go fishing. This trip was the best one yet… The house is very clean, the outdoor area is spacious and the hot tub was great after a long day on the lake. The pool table and dart board were a great bonus. We brought our small fishing boat and were able to launch it right down the road (walking distance). The trek down the stairs to the dock from the home is a little long and the “trip” back up can be a little rough on the legs but it’s definitely worth it. Margaret is an amazing host. We hope to return next year!

Second stay!
Wonderful house on the lake, close to town but feels so secluded! The house has everything we need for a long weekend and plenty of space for everyone to spread out, also a nice open concept living and dining area for spending time together! We are repeat customers and will definitely be back again! Beautiful property!

About the host

Hosted by Margaret Chaffin

Host profile image
I was raised in a military family; my father served in WW2, Korea, and Viet Nam. He retired after 30 years of Honorable Service as a COL in the US ARMY. I am half Norwegian and spent many years in Norway at my Grandmothers home on Ulvøya in Oslo. Growing up on an island has made me always appreciate the beauty of water and the calm good feelings that it brings. I graduated from North Georgia College with a degree in Special Education K-12, and I have worked every aspect of my field since graduating in 1982.
In 1984, I married my husband- an officer in the US NAVY and we’ll celebrate 40 years of marriage this year. His career has taken us many places that have been wonderful to raise our three daughters; and now our oldest daughter is following the family tradition of military service and is a Major in the US ARMY Reserves. Six years ago, we bought this beautiful property and renovated it for fun and joy! Now it is our hope that you get as much pleasure from our beautiful lake house as we do!

Why they chose this property

This home is such a happy place. It is away from noise and pollution. There aren't many neighbors close by, so that keeps it quiet. This home is close to the small town of Big Sandy; it's only about 15 minutes to drive to Camden; 20 minutes to drive to Paris; and 30 minutes to drive to Murray, KY. Even Nashville is relatively close by!

Paris Landing is 23 miles from the house by car, but by boat it is about 6 miles - which would take 18 minutes at 20MPH. We have a dock where you can tie your boat.

For the ladies and gentlemen who enjoy shopping for antiques and collectibles, Murray, KY has several Antique Malls.

For the Gentlemen and Ladies who enjoy Golfing, Paris Landing and Murray, KY both have Public Golf Courses.

There are several places to hike nearby - so that is a fantastic option as well.

We have the most beautiful view. We have games, movies, a hot tub, a pool table, fishing gear- every thing to make your stay relaxing and fun!

What makes this property unique

This home is newly painted. All furniture is new. It has a fully equipped kitchen, laundry and room for 8 to 12 people. It will be fantastic for a large family or a group of friends; but will also be perfect for a small gathering. You can choose many things to do - watch TV at night, play games, play pool, play darts, or just sit and talk about how much you are enjoying yourselves!

The sunroom is situated on the back of the house so you can sit out and look at the water; or go out on the deck and enjoy a cool drink or a hot coffee and sit and relax and enjoy the songs of the birds.

There are a 4 power outlets outside on the deck, so if you are sitting outside and need to charge your phone - or you want to use our George Foreman Grill, you are able to plug them in and start charging or cooking!

We’ve just contracted a new large 2 slip dock which is almost completed! It is a sight to behold! If you have a fishing boat, or a pontoon boat- this would be the place for you!

The home is in a safe area away from noise and traffic, but close to small shops and grocery stores plus fuel stations. Murray, KY; Camden, TN; Paris, TN; Jackson,TN; and Nashville, TN are all relatively close by.
