Enjoy fireside sunset & walk to movies, shops, restaurants!

Charming, *PET FRIENDLY* 1950s Lakehouse with dock. You can enjoy the lake out the back door or walk to historic downtown and: enjoy a movie at the Oldham Theatre; visit the Old Jail museum; shop and eat at boutiques and restaurants on the square.
Walk to the grocery market up the street for a bottle of wine and food supplies.
Twin Creeks Marina is a very short boat, car or bike ride away. You can rent a boat for the day, enjoy dinner and drinks at sunset and sometimes live music.
If you enjoy hiking, there are great trails at nearby Tim’s Ford State Park and Sewanee.
*Pet Friendly* we welcome well-mannered pets. There is a crate available in the house and a nice dog pin in the backyard, if needed.

Beautiful views of lake. Great dock for our boat. Kids really enjoyed the pad and board. Location is near Twin Creeks Marina for easy access to public boat launch. You're able to walk to downtown Winchetser, ice cream shoppe, restaurants, movie theaters. The owner Christie was very responsive. The stairs to the pier are a bit exhausting climbing back up with all your gear. But so worth it to be able to enjoy Tim's Ford.

Wonderful & Relaxing weekend.

We absolutely loved our stay in Winchester. The house had everything we needed and more! The large deck and expansive outdoor seating areas were perfect for enjoying the beautiful views and fall weather. The bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable and there was plenty of living space to move around and relax. We would love to come back.

Comfortable lakehouse away from it all!

We loved staying in Winchester - a charming town with all of the necessities. Mostly, we sat on the back porch and enjoyed the views of water, trees, wildlife and boats passing by. A very pleasant stay; thank you.

Great spot on Tims Ford Lake

Lovely place right on lake, as described. Very comfortable beds, wonderful furnishings, dining room and deck look over lake. The town was quaint and Twin Creek Marina had great rentals for pontoon and paddleboards. Tims Ford Jetski great service. A wonderful stay.

Winter lake visit with family

Our weekend visit was wonderful, but too short. The "lake house" was a perfect option. There was more than enough room and exceeded our expectations. We would be happy to stay again if we repeat our plans.

Roomy house with well appointed kitchen. Location was ideal. Winchester offered anything else we could need nearby. Rest, relaxation on the floating dock. Canoeing and stand-up paddle board a plus. Most enjoyable visit.

Spring Break

We had a great stay at this lovely property overlooking the lake. We enjoyed the quaint historic Winchester, Tim’s Ford Lake State Park, and Jack Daniel distillery all close by. The property was clean, well situated for exploring, and great for families! The highlight of each day was coffee on the beautiful porch listening to the birds and enioying the view of the lake.

Great and lovely getaway over New Year

Everything went extremely smooth great communication from the owner, seamless check-in, and the property and view was even better than the pictures. It was a great stay over New Year’s (we wanted quiet and peaceful) we also had several well behaved four-legged furry friends with us and the property was very pet-friendly they and we really felt at home. I would book this again.

Great Lake House!

Christy quickly responded to my questions before we booked and the pictures of the house are accurate. Cozy and clean, everything you could possibly need to cook and a grocery store right down the street. Our girls loved all the games that were available and spent quite a bit of time in the hammock. We had a great time.!
