About this property
Cindy's Island - Riverfront - Fishing, Tubing
If its river frontage you want – you’ve found it! You can literally drop a line and fish while standing on the deck. The views up and down the river are tremendous and onsite you’ll find tubes for a lazy afternoon float down the river.
This cozy two-bedroom cottage is perfect for 2-4 guests. There’s a nice woodstove for chilly mornings and evenings, Internet (wireless) and Satellite TV.
Well located between Highlands and Franklin so a quick jaunt up or down the mountain is easy and direct.
Private home all for you with two bedrooms and two baths plus that marvelous river frontage.
There is a firepit for you enjoyment. We provide enough firewood for one fire and ask that you purchase more, if needed.
