House On Blue Waters is a very special lake front property with amazing views

Views, privacy, deep water & more with this 2 bedroom 2 bath, lakefront home. Open floor plan with vaulted ceilings in the Living Room, Dining & Kitchen combo.

Don't miss the gentle steps which go to a basement area which has washer/dryer and storage of the 4 Adult and 3 Child Stand Up Paddle Boards. Canoe and water craft storage on this level & even more decking going out to lake. Lots of seating areas. Nice updated ramp and dock.

We love coming back to the House on Blue Waters every year. The lake is beautiful. We love hiking, kayaking, swimming, boating, biking (in Cades Cove on Wednesdays), paddleboarding. The house has comfortable beds and a kitchen with all the pots, pans etc that we need.

Peaceful Time

Once again Lake Santeelah was a peaceful and fun vacation site. The house was small but worked perfectly for having our children and their families come one at a time, leaving us a couple of nights alone. There are so many amazing lake “toys” available that we only brought our favorite tubes. There were plenty of linens and the futon couch was comfortable. Cute house in a quiet cove. Enjoy! We did:)

Very relaxing

Nice place, very convenient for lake activities. Just a suggestion on those bringing a boat…Go straight to the Marina and drop the boat and trailer prior to going to the house. That road is tricky pulling a trailer.

Perfect lake getaway

The lakehouse offered everything we needed for a lovely family trip. Beautiful view of the mountains and lake. Loved the dock and lake equipment! First time trying out a kayak and paddleboard. We paddled with the kayaks to a jumping rock in the next cove over. My son enjoyed fishing off the dock. We also enjoyed a fire in the chiminea. Grocery store was just 10 minutes away. Rented a pontoon.

Great Place!

The cabin was very clean, beds were comfy, and they had all the water toys you would want. We took the canoe out and fished of the deck. I’ll highly recommend this cabin!
