Weekend waterfalls!

Perfect place to stay, relax and visit South Cumberland State Park. We were able to hike and enjoy the waterfalls! Our tiny home was a perfect spot right on the lake! Definitely recommend The Retreat to others!!

Beautiful setting and such a cute tiny house!

My husband and I stayed for a long weekend. Sitting out on the screen porch and out by the fire pit were our favorite parts. The place has a beautiful view of the lake and was close to our waterfall adventures and concert in The Caverns. The place is small, but plenty big for two (with extra room upstairs for 2 kids.)

Great for a couple

The house is just as advertised but having more than 2 folks there gets a little cramped. It is a tiny house so not unexpected and the location is very nice - on the water and with a nice fire pit in the back yard

8/10 Good

Great Location📍

This lakeside tiny home is perfect for a family of 4-5 or just for a couple. Ample seating indoors and out; we had dinner and breakfast alfresco on the screened in porch, and we were able to eat indoors at the just-right-sized dining table for 4. There was plenty of room to spread out outdoors as well with a beautiful fire pit and grilling area in addition to the deck and screened in porch. We loved having access to the public dock just steps away and took advantage of the kayak rentals as well as the hiking trail just across the road. Will definitely be back to this peaceful community to spend time in nature and relax with family and friends!

peaceful and good view

Our family enjoyed the quiet, peaceful and the good view. The location was a little hard to find as the gps could not ping the exact location.

Beautiful view of the lake

The property was clean and had all the needed supplies. The weather didn't cooperate but we still enjoyed the stay. Since it rained, we were limited to the screened in porch. Possibly move the big swinging chair on the deck so the view is not impeded. Other than that, lovely visit

My son's favorite getaway!

This property has become a favorite spot for my son and I to go to unwind. We live in Viola, so it is close for us. We love to hike, kayak, fish, and mountain bike the area around. The house is perfect for the two of us and is always clean and appointed well. We enjoy fishing, kayaking, and swimming off the dock in the back yard. Thank you for making this available for us. We will be back!
