About this property

Pet friendly cottage on 17 acre Lake front property with dock and kayak access

Enjoy the remote solitude of this tiny home guest cottage nested along the top of a ridge, on 17+ wooded acres on the edge of the picturesque Sequatchie Valley. Wander down to the lakeside picnic area with dock on serene Twin Lakes to fish, kayak, or swim. Hike the woodlands on the property to the cascading seasonal stream to gather wild blueberries and blackberries.
Drive 8 minutes to downtown Pikeville to shop the Saturday Farmers Market for organic treats and local crafts. Partake in a local restaurant or visit the grocery to re-stock supplies. Find your antique treasurers or enjoy a hand scooped ice cream. You’ll find a little of almost everything downtown except crowds and traffic. Apple orchards and canoeing on the Sequatchie River are nearby.
Magnificent Fall Creek Falls State Park is an adventurous 35-minute drive away. Movie Theater, stage performances and additional amenities are also available in Crossville, 35 minutes away. Experience all Chattanooga has to offer within an easy, picturesque, traffic free, 60-minute drive.

This place is not “lake front”. You can’t see the lake anywhere from the cabin. It’s a half mile walk down the steep driveway (that you won’t get notified about until you book). The ac was broken when we arrived (it was August) and when I texted about it I got a phone call giving me the third degree about why I didn’t open the windows and letting me know it’s a small town so the ac guy probably wouldn’t make it to fix the ac. It was a hot and miserable two nights and we left early and got a hotel on the last night. Also, when I asked about the kayak I was told you can’t use the kayak for “legal reasons”. The description is blatantly misleading. I would not stay here again.

I am so sorry you had a bad experience. The AC worked the weekend before for the previous guests and the cleaning crew did not report an outage. I'm so sorry you misinterpreted the listing title and description. The property title does say "Lake Front Property" not lakefront cottage. Also, the description says the cottage is nestled along the top of the ridge. 17 acres is a sizable property. Regardless, you definitely deserve the comfort of AC so a refund was immediately processed. My sincerest appologies.

Very nice property, we were looking for seclusion to just relax and this was a great spot. The only issue is it is not lakefront,you need to drive down a steep hill. Also lots of property although no trails to hike. Everything else was terrific 👍

Wonderful Spring break

My husband, son, dog and I had a great time. The hosts go above and beyond to exceed your expectations. The cabin is very clean and has all the amenities you need. The hosts graciously provided their kayaks. They were used daily and our dog enjoyed the ride as well. We had a great time fishing in the lake. There is also a lot of property to hike. If you are looking to unwind and enjoy the beauty of Tennessee don’t continue your search and book here.

This property was exactly as advertised. Very clean and accommodating. Very secluded but near enough to town that it wasn't inconvenient.The lake near the property looked a little mucky and there didn't seem to be an easy place to park near the lake for fishing access but we found other things to do nearby so it wasn't an issue. Bruce was very communicative via the app and even provided super detailed directions to the cottage which was very helpful.We were very thankful that it was pet friendly so we could bring our 2 dogs, and we definitely enjoyed our stay in this quaint little cottage in the woods. We were even able to sit in the screened in porch while it rained. It was very relaxing and quiet.
