PANORAMIC VIEW BEST VIEW ON CENTER HILL LAKE

** GATED 500 FEET OF LAKE VIEW ON 5 ACRES **
Three bedroom, log home built from hand hewn logs. Breathtaking view of 65 mile long Center Hill Lake and surrounding hills in the Heart of beautiful Middle Tennessee on 5+ acres very private gated property at the end of a small community road. Located near Hurricane Marina

A Lifetime movie was filmed here in 2003 and is now being shown. The name of the movie is 'No Regrets' so watch your TV listings for show times or order from Netflix. We have also had a recent Vice President and his family spend some of their vacation time here.

The home is a two-story, private dwelling with 12-foot high picture windows across the lake side of the house. The great-room has a large living, dining, and kitchen area with 24-foot vaulted ceilings, and a massive fieldstone fireplace. Great room has a new large sofa with built in cell phone chargers for relaxing while you watch 55 inch, QLED smart TV from the sofa.
One downstairs Twin bedroom with half bath. Upstairs has two bedrooms and a full bath.

One bedroom has a King bed and the other has a Queen bed. Aero Beds are available for two more guests--the kids love them! A large deck with rocking chairs, many marinas nearby for boating, water-skiing, and fishing. Water ski instruction is available at some docks. Pets are NOT allowed; no smoking. No children under 12, and no parties or weddings without owner approval.

Restaurants are at most marinas and in Smithville and Cookeville. Try the new restaurant at Hurricane Marina. Many types of boats are available for rent at most marinas. Hikers and nature lovers enjoy the numerous state parks nearby including 'Fall Creek Falls State Park', with the highest falls east of the Rockies, and 'South Cumberland State Park'. Hike to the many 'water falls' in this park and see the 'Great Stone Door.' Burgess Falls is also nearby and can be reached by boat on Center Hill Lake. Horseback riding is available in Cookeville. Don’t miss “Bluegrass Underground” in the Cumberland Caverns, plays in Crossville on
the Cumberland Plateau. Also Smithville Jamboree 4th of July week. In late October, when the leaves are beautiful, go “Off the Beaten Path”, a
great way to Christmas shop, beautiful works of art available, or you can enjoy a great fire in the fireplace or both!

For country music fans, Nashville is less than an hour's drive. Appalachian Center for Crafts is only three miles. For those who like to antique there are many shops in the area. Cookeville is only 20 minutes away and has many large chain stores and restaurants.

I have been with VRBO for over 18 years and have one complaint. Also look at all my Reviews and they will tell you how I do business in the correct way.

WHAT A VIEW!
This was our first time booking with VRBO. The booking was flawless, communicating with the Host was super easy and they were very quick to reply whenever I had a question. The location of the cabin was crazy beautiful! I could have just sat on the outside porch in the rocking chair forever...! Weather was gorgeous on the dates were there...The kitchen was absolutely HUGE and well stocked with everything we needed...the beds were very comfortable. The fireplace was beautiful, warm and welcoming...being from Florida, it was such a treat to sit by the fire and enjoy the peace and quiet...many times I would sit out on the back porch and you would hear nothing but crickets...no loud noises, no sirens, nothing! I was in heaven. I have never seen so many stars in the sky either! Gorgeous....we also got a chance to use the gas grill, it worked beautifully....the Host graciously offered early check in as well, a definite bonus...getting to the cabin took us through a beautiful neighborhood, the neighbors were nice and quiet and the cabin was behind a gate...If I had a question, I was able to reach out to Maudine and the couple of calls I made to her with questions were answered promptly...thank you Maudine! The cabin was very rustic, old fashioned and true country decor...the staircase was absolutely gorgeous...but the thing that sold me was the VIEW....We all enjoyed our stay!

Gorgeous view
Enjoyed our long weekend stay at Center Hill Lake in this home with a gorgeous view. Arrived after dark and glad we didn't wander around the property - it is at the tip of a peninsula with steep hill on three sides. It made for gorgeous views of the lake and bridge. Had a weird late spring snowstorm while we there and didn't get to enjoy the beautiful deck as much as we wanted to, due to the cold temps, but the huge windows overlooking the lake afforded us nice views from inside. We had a great time playing games as a family and a few brief hikes at nearby state parks and the Center for Appalachian Craft.

Great location at Center Hill Lake
We very much enjoyed our weekend getaway at Center Hill Lake. The property is very well maintained and clean. The view is spectacular and just the kind of place we needed to unwind. Fully stocked kitchen and warm bedding added to our comfort. There was spacious parking. We brought our 17 ft boat and had no problems. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!

We loved staying here! Beautiful views, and it was so easy to get into town and stop by Walmart for food and supplies! We visited 3 state parks- all within 35 minutes. Also a local farm and downtown- great location! You can see everywhere we visited on Instagram at @ socal_to_nashvilletn if you want to see all the fun things to do so close to this cute cabin! We will definitely be back.

Could not be more perfect!
We enjoyed a weekend here to celebrate my mother in law’s 80th birthday. After her spending most of the last year alone due to Covid, it was precious to be here all together to celebrate her life. The house is a blend of historical, antiques and modern comforts. The spectacular view all around the property has to be the best one on the lake, just breathtaking. Enjoyed a beautiful spring day in the rockers on the porch and around the fireplace at night. The view out the back windows first thing in the morning or at sunset is surreal. It is such an incredible place that I wish there was something there that shared the history of when it was built, by who and other incredible facts because it has to be one of the first places built on the lake in early 1900’s. It was just the most perfect place and I hope we will be back regularly. Loved getting to talk to Maudine too!
