About this property

Cindy's Island - Riverfront - Fishing, Tubing

If its river frontage you want – you’ve found it! You can literally drop a line and fish while standing on the deck. The views up and down the river are tremendous and onsite you’ll find tubes for a lazy afternoon float down the river.
This cozy two-bedroom cottage is perfect for 2-4 guests. There’s a nice woodstove for chilly mornings and evenings, Internet (wireless) and Satellite TV.
Well located between Highlands and Franklin so a quick jaunt up or down the mountain is easy and direct.

Private home all for you with two bedrooms and two baths plus that marvelous river frontage.

There is a firepit for you enjoyment. We provide enough firewood for one fire and ask that you purchase more, if needed.

Perfect family getaway!

We had a wonderful stay — very clean, excellent location near town and central to get to other towns. We loved hanging out in the river and making s’mores in the fire pit. Highly recommend!

Relaxing and beautiful. A little hard to find, especially at night because the entrance is right outside a curve in the road but overall, we would go again!

Beautiful place

House is tucked in the woods right off the road and really quite. You can fish of the back deck and relax. The house was clean and very cozy. My family enjoyed our stay. The kids wished we could stay longer. Definitely recommend this location.
