Waterfront resort combines six homes to sleep 90+! The homes are a combination of the 1870's and 1930 Historic homes and three newer homes all up to the standards and expectation of modern times. 21 Bedrooms and 19 bathrooms with other nooks and lofts to sleep. All buildings are in walking distance of each other with pool and clubhouse/flex space centralized. PLEASE see below for the bedroom configuration to make sure it works for you.
This is a beautiful six-home, lakefront resort with in-ground pool and 1500 feet of shoreline, surrounded by woods at the ridges of Appalachia. It is full of beautiful acreage, surrounded by woods, and BREATHTAKING views! It is accompanied by a pool and hot tub area, dock, beach, sand volleyball, horseshoe, a boat ramp, kayaks, wood burning fire pit, all included! We even have a playground for the little ones with an in-ground trampoline!
Have boats or watercraft of your own? Bring them! We have a boat ramp right onsite and plenty of room for your trailers, as well as docking. Play volleyball, corn hole, Beersbie, ladder golf, giant Jenga, life-sized chess, or just play in the cleanest, coolest water on the lake. The water comes right out of the mountains and dumps right at our feet. Great fishing as well in season. We are actually in one of the best areas to fish, right near Little River and Spring Creek! Eat s'mores by the campfire at the beach and watch AMAZING sunsets! String Light courtyard, privacy, and plenty of room to stretch out! SO much to do!
Close to Pirate's Bay (seasonal water park), DeSoto Falls, Cherokee Rock Village, Little River Canyon, Orbix Glassblowing, snow skiing, horseback riding, endless trails, rappelling, caving and ziplining. We are in the ABC triangle meaning we are an hour & a half +/- from the Atlanta, Birmingham, & Chattanooga Airports.
The views are incredible and the Main house has 1870's charm mixed with 21st century décor and conveniences. The Rose Cottage is adorable and the crazy 1930 home is so whacky and fun, with its uneven doors and slanted roofs. The new homes are gorgeous and loaded with heavy trim and upscale appointments. Breathtaking views of the lake, mountains and lawns from all units and you can even see how the sunset pours colors into the houses at "golden hour". We also have LOTS of stars, it just gets better & better!

CLEANING FEE DISCLAIMER: We are disenchanted that we have a pass-through cleaning fee so high these days but with everything going on in the country with higher costs and labor shortages, this is our new reality. We understand that when this fee is split by the large groups that is nominal per-person but we want you to know our hearts are that we wish it wasn’t so high regardless of that. It is a very large house to turn over in such a short amount of time and weekend help is extremely hard to find help. We only have 1780 people that live here so we have to be the highest paid to retain the best and they are AWESOME! Conversely, we are pleased to remind you that we have so much included with this property. Unlimited firewood, propane for grill and gas fire pit, all the coffee supplies you need except coffee. All sweeteners, powdered creamer, filters and we have a selection of tea. We have spices and oils galore. You don’t need to bring trash bags or paper goods either. We stock enough for your entire stay, not just a starter amount. Bathroom & facial tissues, paper towels, trash bags, napkins, salt and pepper shakers, dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, aluminum foil, assorted sizes of zip lock bags, plastic Saran-type wrap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, bar soap, Q-tips, cotton balls, filled hand soap dispensers throughout, kitchen sponges and Dawn dishwashing liquid. We have first aid kits. We have hospitality boxes with all sorts of things guests may forget. There's a huge list of everything stocked for you if you would like us to send to you. Our guests have told us in reviews that all they need to bring is food & clothes. One last thing on cleaning: If you are going to check out on a weekday, please inquire if there will be a break in this fee. There's no way for us to separate it out so we would be happy to address on a case by case if you initiate. We are so thankful you are considering booking this AMAZING property.
Humbly,
Dave, Ann & our AMAZING Team
