Escape to our cozy 2-bedroom vacation home in Decatur, where you can immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Tennessee. Nestled between the Tennessee River/ Chickamauga Lake, and the Hiwassee River, this property offers unparalleled access to the great outdoors.

Want to bring the family dog? A well mannered, house trained pet is welcomed so long as they aren’t permitted on the furniture and never left alone unsecured in the house.

Unwind in the living room by the crackling fireplace, or enjoy a movie night on the smart TV with satellite/cable channels. Stay connected with the free WiFi, and take care of your laundry with the in-unit washer and dryer.

When you're not exploring the nearby rivers and lakes, savor home-cooked meals in the fully stocked kitchen, complete with a gas stove/oven, refrigerator, grill, and all the necessary appliances and utensils. Step outside to the balcony or fire pit, and relax while taking in the stunning lake views.

This vacation home is equipped with all the essentials, including a bathroom with towels and basic soaps, an iron and board, and central heat/air conditioning. Families will appreciate the games and kid-friendly amenities. With an EV car charger (available on request for an additional fee) and ample parking, you'll have everything you need for a memorable stay.

Always perfect
This is our 3rd year in a row and we’re never disappointed. The place is so cozy and well kept and lacks for nothing to enjoy your stay. We feel at home everyone we’re here. We were here for a volleyball tournament but our daughter is a senior so we will not be back for that anymore but have grown so fond of this place that we will probably be back to just relax and enjoy.

Quiet restful and just perfect
We first stayed here last summer and were delighted to return for a quiet week of kayaking, swimming, and enjoying all the wildlife. This is the perfect place to unplug for a few days and enjoy time with family. Rick and Debbie are excellent hosts anticipating every need. House is a delight well equipped, cozy and comfortable.

Great Stay
The property was just as advertised. Communication with the owners/managers was excellent - they responded to any questions immediately. Place was clean, and even filled with extra touches to make the stay great. We had fun on the water, found a neat hike close by, the outdoor space was great, and had an overall fantastic experience.

Awesome week at the bungalow
This is our second stay at the bungalow in the last year. The home is extremely clean and well stocked with amenities. The hosts, Rick and Debbie, are top notch! Our favorite parts of our stay were fishing, kayaking, dinner on the back deck at sunset, and we were able to go to the Moo festival in Athens. Highly recommend, can’t wait for another visit.

PEACEFUL BUNGALOW
We love the well-decorated nautical theme in this charming bungalow. The kitchen was well stocked and we had ample room to relax. This time of the year (December 23-27th) was very quiet with lots of wild life around.

About the host

Hosted by Debbie & Rick

Host profile image
After retiring from a lifelong construction business, we felt like we still wanted to dig into some great remodeling projects. So, we looked for someplace we could really put some sweat equity into and let our creativity fly! We enjoy time at the lake boating, swimming, kayaking, hanging out with friends and family and our German Shepherd dogs, and a great glass of wine while watching the sunsets!

Why they chose this property

This is a beautiful piece of land with wonderful lake access. We love the trees and yard out front, but the area near the water's edge is amazing year round. It feels remote, but not too far out.

What makes this property unique

It's close to Dayton, Athens, Cleveland 20 - 30 minutes, plus within an hour we can be in Chattanooga or Knoxville. Tons of hiking, shopping, restaurants, historical sites, etc. We love the relaxed feel of life by the water!
