Great relaxing stay

My family stayed for three nights to fish Chikamauga lake and visit Chattanooga. The house is very clean, well equipped and the host was great with communication. For anyone bringing a boat, there is plenty of parking for multiple boats and Armstrong Ferry boat ramp is just down the road.

Perfect cabin for a relaxing getaway.

The lake house cabin was perfect for our little family. We spent most of the time on the lake and around the dock. Everything was wonderful and the cabin is very spacious.

Wonderful stay!!

Beautiful property!! Great hosts. The house is just as wonderful as the pictures show it to be and the dock/fishing/kayaks were such a hit with our family. We spent most of our time either on the water fishing or around the fire pit. Would definitely recommend!!

Great get away

This is our second time staying at the cabin. We have two large dogs and they absolutely love the property and the space to run. The cabin is always so cozy and comfy and we really enjoyed watching the leaves change since we don’t really get fall in Florida. The host was very quick at responding to any questions we may have had. Certainly recommend this spot.

Peaceful & Tranquil

We greatly enjoyed our stay. The listing was just as explained. My only complaint is that we didn't have more than two nights to stay at the beautiful cabin! If you're looking for "off the beaten path", this is the place for you to relax and unwind. Thank you, thank you, thank you :D

Sand Hill Crane Festival

Three brothers and two wives met at the Lake House for the Sand Hill Crane Festival in Birchwood. First, the festival was so interesting and fun and a must do if you like birds. Second, the cabin was fabulous! It was a cold weekend but the fireplace kept us cozy. The bedrooms were very comfortable; the kitchen was well-stocked with cookware and utensils; the view of the dock and lake were fabulous. We saw hundreds of sand hill cranes closer up than at the festival viewing site! It was too cold to enjoy the incredible patio and balcony, but, that would be awesome in the summer. Richard was easily available to answer questions. HIGHLY recommended for any season!

Beautiful peaceful place

This is a beautiful cabin! The location is off the main beaten path with lots of peace and quiet. There where 6 adults and the house was very comfortable. The side porch is amazing!! The dock on the lake was very convenient and the lake was full of all kinds of fish. We will be coming back very soon.
