Reel Simple LAKEFRONT Cabin Close to Hiking Trails, The Caverns and OHV Park!

Reel Simple LAKEFRONT Cabin sits at the back of our property, right on the bank of Big Creek Lake, while offering mountain charm at its best. Tucked into a couple acres for you to explore, you will enjoy the peaceful calm of the area. You are invited to bring your fishing poles (with license), kayaks, boat (with electric motor only) and paddleboards to use on the lake. Big Creek Lake spans 74 acres for your enjoyment.

The location of our cabin is perfect, it sits in the middle of Grundy County and is a short drive to the many trailheads of the South Cumberland State Parks, the Coalmont OHV Park, The Caverns, Sewanee and University of the South. Nashville is 1.5 hours away; Chattanooga is an hour and McMinnville and Manchester are both 35-minute drives. If you don't feel like exploring the area, you will enjoy the peaceful serenity of the cabin. At night, the area is perfect for stargazing.

Reel Simple LAKEFRONT Cabin is a 500 sq. ft. getaway. Small, yes, but let's face it, you're here to enjoy the outside! We offer what many of the other local choices don't - true privacy. If you choose not to see anyone during your stay, that is possible.

The cabin features a kitchen with a full-size propane stove, kitchen sink, microwave and full-size refrigerator. The kitchen is complete with everything you will need to cook meals during your stay. There is a small barrel-style table with four stools. The cozy living area has a futon, a chair and a Roku television so you can sign in to your streaming channel. A private bathroom with a shower, toilet and a small sink vanity, complete the downstairs. Upstairs is an open loft bedroom with a queen size bed. The front porch offers a swing and two Adirondak chairs for your relaxation. This is the perfect place to begin and end your day.

Our cabin has city water, central heating/air conditioning, high-speed internet and privacy. Unlike a lot of other properties in the area, you will NOT be near another rental. This cabin is the only rental we offer on our property for our guests to enjoy their stay in peace.

We have a fire pit near the pavilion and have provided wood. The wind that comes off the lake can be very strong. Under no circumstances can the fire pit be used during dry weather or high winds. Please do not leave fire unattended and make sure it is out completely before you retire for the evening.

A couple extras on the property include a large pavilion where you will find two grills. One is propane with a tank on site that we fill up for your use and the other is charcoal (you will have to provide your own charcoal). Grill utensils are provided in the cabin. A picnic table for you to enjoy your meals is also under the pavilion. There are two fans that can help with air flow, if needed.

We have a gravel turnaround near the cabin, so if you have a trailer to haul your offroad vehicle, you can easily maneuver around.

Pet Policy: Being dog lovers ourselves, we can't imagine taking a trip without our dogs. Feel free to bring yours to enjoy your visit to the cabin. We charge $20 per dog, per stay (sorry, limit of 2). PLEASE REACH OUT TO ME BEFORE BOOKING TO GET A QUOTE THAT INCLUDES THE PET FEE(S).

Special Note: The pasture and woods around the cabin will give you and your guests over two acres to explore. The land near the cabin is shared between your family and the main home. We will do our best not to interfere with your stay, but property maintenance still needs to be done. We try to mow between bookings, but the weather does not always cooperate with that plan :)

I have my settings listed as a one day notice to book the cabin. (Actually, it is usually available to same-day bookings) There has been a problem in the past with VRBO not allowing automatic booking within that window. If this happens to you, please reach out to me and I can make the necessary changes to allow you to book.

If you have any questions prior to booking, please reach out to me. I do my best to answer promptly. I look forward to hosting you on your next trip to beautiful Grundy County, Tennessee!

Peaceful getaway right where we needed to be

Host was very good at communicating. It's a little tricky to find the right driveway to go down, but I think that's more Google's fault. The small cabin is very clean and all the towels and sheets were clean. The beds are small but adequate for us. We made coffee in the morning and sipped it on the deck overlooking the pond. We just had one night to stay and it worked out really well.

Great location for hiking

This cabin is very close to Savage Gulf, full of spectacular hiking. The shower is great with wonderful water pressure, plenty of hot water and a shower head placed high enough for tall people. Nice that there is a gas stove too. We were plenty warm on very chilly nights.

What an amazing place!

My son and I were planning to go camping right before Thanksgiving but the weather was kind of iffy (cold and rainy). We wanted to be by a lake to go fishing and be close to places to hike. This place was perfect! It's like we had a whole campsite to ourselves. Lots of nature to see. It was close enough to Chattanooga to spend a day there and then come back to the cabin for campfires and more fishing. We can't wait to come back and bring my wife and daughter. They can sleep in the cabin while we camp in a tent outside. My wife is NOT a camper. Ha! The location is right between Nashville and Chattanooga. Perfect distance for a quick trip. Hope to explore more of Monteagle next time.

Anniversary trip

We enjoyed our stay at this quiet spot. We kayaked the lake without disturbances and only saw a handful of other people on the water. But be prepared to get muddy on your way down into the water. We enjoyed the provided firewood and fire pit area and having somewhere clean and cozy to sleep. The provided coffee and snacks were awesome. Would definitely come back! Thank you!

Get Away

Very nice little cabin, just as described, Reel Simple Cabin. Very nice location, beautiful property, well maintained, cabin and landscape. Great view of the lake from the front porch, loved the sunset over the lake the first day we were there. Got to explore the lake by canoe, lily pads, wild life. and friendly neighbors. Quiet little community of well kept houses and land surrounded and shared the lake. Enough wooded land to still feel rural. Hope to come back again sometime. Did not meet the owners but communication with them online was quick and very pleasant. Miles and Donna Phillips

Nice place to escape

It is a super nice place to get away to when you’re tired of the hustle and bustle and want peace and quiet. Beautiful view. Very responsive and communicative host. They literally thought of everything with this place. Bring yourselves and food. Hosts took care of any other need. I wish that we could have paddle boarded and fished, but lily pads made that impossible. It is a very serene place to be. Close to many places to hike. We would give it another try.
