This was one of our best stays ever. Perfect little cabin in an ideal setting if you want peace and quiet. Close to hiking. I could have stayed forever. Will definitely go back.
My husband and I keep coming back to this wonderful property for its beautiful setting and cozy accommodations and can't wait to schedule another trip!
We stayed here for a weekend for our anniversary and this place is amazing! Perfect to get away from everyday life and just enjoy nature and good company. This place is very secluded, right by the water, nice fire pit, covered . It had everything we needed and we felt right at home. We will definitely be coming back to the banko bungalow
Gorgeous and very private setting on a little lake in rural Tennessee. The cabin itself was clean, except for the loads of dead ladybug bodies all over the floor, kitchen counters, and table.
Bed was comfortable, kitchen was very well-equipped, and host responded quickly when contacted about issue with water heater. All in all, we enjoyed our stay.
This property was amazing!! If you need a break from life and just want peace and quiet this is the location for you! Cabin was very clean and had all the things needed for the stay and was very happy it was pet friendly!! Couldn’t have asked for a better place.
I have ABSOLUTELY fallen head over heels in love with this place. Well worth the 12 hour drive and braving Nashville to come here. I am an introvert, so I stay here by myself with my dog and it is THE PERFECT spot to recharge. Quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. I cannot wait to come back ASAP!!!!
We wanted a quite, secluded getaway and this was exactly what we wanted. The cabin is nice and clean, kitchen has everything you need to cook and prepare food. The lake is beautiful and clean, sitting at the fire pit was so relaxing, we will definitely be going back in the future.
This was the most peaceful, beautiful, and quiet setting I have ever been to! The lake was really nice. The water was so clear. The cabin was very comfortable and had everything we needed. This was one of my top vacations all because of the wonderful stay at banjo bungalow. The owner was very quick to answer my text. We will definitely stay there again.
We absolutely loved it here! Very private, peaceful, and had everything we needed. It’s a little piece of heaven! We also asked if we could stay later on Sunday, owner replied right away and we were able to enjoy the sun for a few hours longer!
My mom, my dog and I stayed here and had a blast. There was plenty of nature, hiking, antiquing, good food and small town charm for all of us to have a great time. I would highly recommend a visit and we will be back.
We had an amazing 4 days in this beautiful cabin on the lake! We attended the Bonnaroo Music Festival and it was so beautiful to come back here to have completely solitude after being around 70,000+ people! We really enjoyed it!
Had a great weekend getaway with my wife, dog, & newborn daughter for my wife & I’s anniversary. Just wanted to get outta town for a weekend for a little R&R and this place was perfect for such. Will definitely rent again in the future..
My kids and I had an amazing memory filled time here. We really enjoyed the lake and the available boat to use was so much fun for us to use. We also enjoyed all the options of things to do such as badminton, volleyball, lots of open spaces to throw a frisbee etc. The hammock provided a cozy spot to relax and the kids loved playing the ring toss game. At night the fire pit provided a wonderful s'mores experience. We saw a small herd of deer across the lake, found some toads, frogs and saw a baby ringsnake! Some people like to go where there are large groups of people for a getaway whereas we like to be able to be left to ourselves and this was the perfect spot we are looking forward to visiting again.
We went out for a couple of days of peace and quiet and that's exactly what we got. This place is amazing with a really nice lake stocked with some good fish. Cabin is spacious enough for 2-3 people very easily. If you are looking for a place to get away from all of the city life this is the place. We will be back for sure.
Banjo bungalow was a wonderful little slice of heaven on earth. The home had many new renovations including paint and landscaping that we were not expecting. You can definitely tell that care is put into this home to assure visitors having a great space. We knew we wanted a weekend to get aways from the busy hustle and bustle of life while still having lots to do. Banjo offered that perfectly with fishing, volleyball, fire pit, grilling, and more all while feeling like you were on your own island. I would highly recommend choosing the Banjo Bungalow for your next trip and we will definitely be returning.
This was by far the most peaceful and restful place we have ever stayed! Our dogs could run free without us constantly worrying about them. We would buy this place if we could!
The setting was so relaxing, cabin on a small lake with plenty of room to roam. Loved the fire pit and porch swing. The cabin was pretty rustic but clean. Great for people traveling with a pet. Our dog had the best time running around and swimming in the lake.

About the host
Hosted by Julie Gross
Our large and growing family needed more room so we purchased this second property on this shared private lake to accommodate our overflow of family and friends.
Why they chose this property
Nature, peaceful, water access and views and plenty of wide open space.
What makes this property unique
Banjo may not be the fanciest cabin around but she is cozy and we have something that other rentals don't have which is seclusion, peace and quiet that you won't find in other areas.
