Set in a quiet cove with views of Cherokee National Forest and the surrounding mountains, this furnished lake retreat is ready for summer fun, peaceful getaways, or continued short-term rental potential.
Enjoy easy lake living with a private dock, calm cove frontage, firepit by the water, and expansive outdoor space including approximately 550 sq ft of upper decking and 480 sq ft of covered lower decking. The home is positioned lower on the bank for easier access to the dock and lake.
