Beautifully updated lakeside cottage.
Less than 10miles from downtown Dalton on a private lake Kathy. The inside of the property is amazing and the back deck/dock makes fishing easy and super convenient. I wish there was a paddle boat or canoe available for the guest, that would icing on the cake.

Just what we needed
The cabin is adorable and so well decorated. Very homey feel and comfy. The added bonus to fish from the deck, the kids loved. You have all basic necessities needed and the kids were super excited to find an added sweet treat on there pillows when they arrived. Very sweet touch added. Thank you for letting us stay. We enjoyed our family time.

This is a great, peaceful place to stay on the lake. It is a cute 2 bedroom cottage / cabin. It was very clean and loved all the décor that the owners have in it. Would defiantly recommend it as a place to get away to.

Great spot for the most part
Great spot to get away on the lake, the place was clean and tidy. My only complaints were there was only 2 full size bath towels that I could find, and there is a ring camera on the back door that was not mentioned on the listing. The back porch is what sold me on this spot, however, with the idea of lack of privacy (ring camera) we didn't spend much time out there.

Such a beautiful home. My husband loved fishing off the back deck. My daughter loved the open space to run around. The home is very cozy and clean. We seen a lot of ducks and geese. I wish we could have stayed longer. Also great communication with the owner. We were very pleased.

Cozy Cottage nice Lakeside setting
We so enjoyed our stay at the Lakeside Cottage, very relaxing, cozy and the cottage has an easy and pleasant floor plan and lighting is great. Out side dock is delightful overlooking Lake Kathy. My Wife and I usually visit a couple cabins every year, some are huge and fancy but never have we had any better stay. The owners communicate extremely well and make Lakeside a wonderful stay.

This was a perfect way to end our honeymoon! We were close enough to explore Ruby Falls and Lookout Mountain, yet secluded enough for a few more days of peace and quiet.

The place was exactly as advertised. I wanted a small place near a lake or nature to simply be still and take a breath. It delivered perfectly. I will definitely keep this as a go to when I come back to visit family going forward.

Could not have been better
We were looking for a place to stay, and be able to host some nearby relatives who don't have enough homes to host. Wow did this deliver. Yes its a quirky lake community with all kinds and ages of homes, but none of this detracted from the enjoyment that we got from the lake itself. Our guests caught many bluegill, a few smaller bass, and a huge 6# bass. We loved all the wildlife including a blue heron. It could not have been a more peaceful and spacious setting. I asked the host a tv setup question just to make sure our guests could catch a football game and got a quick helpful response. Beautifully decorated and nicely supplied. Definitely will make this the first place we look at for future visits.

Lake Kathy lake house
My wife and I were celebrating our 51st anniversary so we decided to visit the Chattanooga area. This lake house is peaceful and safe. The house is beautiful and very clean. We fed ducks and geese from the lake front deck and we’re able to relax as well as drive around the beautiful mountains. The location is a bit far from Chattanooga but ideal for relaxing, fishing, or hiking. This property is well maintained, super clean, with a very peaceful little lake. We enjoyed it and highly recommend the property. Randy and Debbie L.

Relaxing stay
We spent a relaxing 2weeks at the lake house. My husband caught a lot of fish and I read several books. We went walking around the neighborhood every night and met several of the residents who were all friendly. Met Joe who was working on some of his other projects around the lake which are looking very nice. Clean and well kept cabin. Dollars store close by has a good selection of quick groceries, large Kroger in nearby Dalton has everything. Would stay again in one of Joe’s cabins.

A peaceful place
The cottage is very nice and well kept. There were only 3 of us with visits from a couple of family members near by. I recommend this place as long as they don't have to deal with the property manager. She was very rude and ruined our Friday trying to find information that she demanted and should have asked for before it she did not have it. I thought I had everything clear, from the start I mentioned a service dog, but she had not read previous emails and asked if we had an animal in the property. From the begging before making the reservation I asked about service animals and sent Vrbo the information. I did not know to attached it to the reservation and she did not go over the information before she called to ask that we leave or come up with official papers for the dog, and she even accused us of having another dog (by the camera on the door) not the one in the papers. Please look at the messages. It could have been handled another way. it really upset me.
