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.

Our stay at this house was wonderful! It was very clean, stocked with essentials in the kitchen and bathrooms. It was very close to the wedding we were attending and great access to the lake! The owner was so kind, and responded quickly when I had questions before booking.

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.

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.

Good for family lake experience. The kitchen had all the things you might need to actually cook. It looks like a great place to vacation with kids.

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.

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.

We had a relaxing time, and wish the weather would have cooperated. The house has wonderful views out of the back of the property. The house had everything we needed, and a few sweet surprises.

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.

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.!

We are Californians here visiting our daughter and her husband who live outside of Nashville. A lake house seemed the perfect choice and a great way to wind down summer! House was perfect! Well equipped in every way - both inside and outside. Great kitchen for cooking, areas to eat both inside and out, comfy beds, lots of games. Great dock with lots of lake toys. Christy (owner) was very responsive to each question. Will stay again for sure!!

Great spot. Our family stayed over a long weekend and wished we could’ve stayed even longer. Comfortable home stocked with supplies. Loved using the fire pit in the evenings. The dock was great. We used the lily pads and enjoyed the warm water right there.
There’s a beach near the marina that’s only about a 10 minute drive away. We didn’t go there, but did rent a boat for the day. Very nice!
A great trip that made us all want a lakefront home. But it’s great to have a nice comfy rental instead!!!

The house is very nice and the view is great. The amenities were great for older kids but not for a 3 year old. The house wasn't very safe for a young child. There is an elementary school directly across the street and the neigh boring properties were very close so there wasn't much privacy. We weren't able to use the yard or the water out back due to safety issues for our child. The pictures weren't very accurate in showing the very steep stairs that lead to the lake. They were slick at the time and the downward slant of some of the stairs caused some anxiety while carrying a child. That part of the lake was actually just a creek which wasnt really indicated in the description either. This place is great for older families who don't a mind lack of privacy. The owner was very responsive to our concerns and worked with us in order to cut our stay short because this wasn't the right property for our trip. The house is very nice, the beds were comfortable and the large shower was great. Many games for older kids were available but not much for young children.
