About this property

Floating House on Tennessee River

FLOAT INN @ TENNESSEE RIVER in Parsons, Tn.

This is a FLOATING HOUSE that sits on the water.

We have parking for 2 vehicles next to each other(no vehicles with trailers allowed).
If you are bringing a boat or jet ski, please use the ramp at the Perryville Marina.
You can leave your vehicle there, or there is an open area just past the marina where you can leave your trailer during your stay.

You have a private ramp taking you downstairs to the waters of the Tennessee River.
The downstairs is completely separate from our upstairs living area, and
features self check in/out.

This is a studio layout that will sleep 4 people with 2 queen size beds.
We also have a full bathroom with a sink, toilet, and shower. *towels and bed linens provided*

We offer a full size refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, coffeemaker, and a 4 TV trays.
We now offer YouTubeTV and we have WiFi Internet. Cell phone reception limited. We suggest prior to your trip if you can, enable your WIFI calling option on your cell phone. Contact your cell provider for any questions on WIFI calling options.

We also offer A/C and Heating options to keep you comfortable during your stay. This is easily adjusted with the wall mounted remote.

Your boat can be docked at the front of the house where you can relax and even fish for Bluegill, Crappie, Bass, and Catfish around all four corners of our home.

Take your boat, jet ski, or kayak out and enjoy the spectacular views of all the floating homes in the marina area before you go out into the Tennessee River and take advantage of all it has to offer.

After a great day of fishing, take advantage of the fish cleaning sink on the back side of the house.

We are new to renting and have just finished with a lot of the remodeling of the downstairs area, with some still remaining, but want to give everyone the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of what we call, “our little piece of heaven”.

We hope that you enjoy your time here, come back to see us, as well as tell all your friends about us.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Great time

Property manager was helpful more than he needed to be. Even tipped me off on good fishing spots in the area. My two boys had a great time fishing from the deck around the house. Anything you need is within a close drive. Tried to go ahead and book a return trip but couldn’t find a opening. There’s a reason it’s booked out. Great place

It is a studio apartment-type inside. Outside is a deck right on the water. Great place to relax and enjoy the water, scenery, marina and friendly folks. Parsons and Perryville area are full of friendly and pleasant people and businesses.

Floating House

Overall it's a great place. Very comfortable, everything we needed, great covered porch, decent fishing right off the porch. Host was responsive. Description is not accurate because it says it's a one bedroom with a kitchen but it's a studio with a refrigerator and some shelves for the coffee, coffee pot, plates, etc. that were provided. There is a microwave and toaster oven but I expected at least a kitchenette. But, none of that detracted from the stay and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again!

Charming, Quiet and Peaceful

This was an older home that has been remodeled and updated. It does have an upstairs that is not part of the rental. The rental space is downstairs only and made into a studio apt that has been subdivided from the rest of the unit. It is a very quaint location looking directly at the marina and you are on the water. It is great for reading, peace and quiet. There is a TV with a firestick, so movies are readily available. The check in process was quick and easy. My only suggestions / precautions to the property is there is very little lighting. Some areas did make me nervous to walk thru. I did wish there was a sink in the kitchenette, we had to use the small bathroom sink for any rinsing and washing. The living area was different. It has 2 pull out couches and one full size bed. One of the couches are not shown in the pics and it is butted against the bed. If that couch was removed, a larger bed could be used. Also keep in mind, that the house is older, it is built with wood that sits on water, so it does have that older house smell. For the price and the accommodation, it really is a great unit and we would return.

Relaxing

We had an amazing time here. Relaxing, fishing, and enjoying the peace and quiet. Before she could even change out of her PJs, my daughter caught a 13lber right off the dock. We enjoyed this property a lot. We will be coming back!

Great base for exploring the area.

We wanted to get out of the city and explore the region, and this made for a great base. The unit is cozy, the bathroom is clean and modern (with great shower pressure), and the full fridge and microwave meant we could bring all the supplies we needed to have all our meals on the lovely patio. The water is so lovely and peaceful! Would definitely return to enjoy all the great state and national parks in the region.
