The highlight of the home is the large waterfront dock with electric and water! We have no doubt that our River Refuge will be the perfect getaway for you and your guests! There are two Kayaks available for free fun. NOTE: There is a steep slope guests will have to walk down to access the water. It may be challenging for small children or the elderly. \*\*\*NOTE: There is no WiFi so be prepared to check out once you check in! We do have DirectTV.\*\*\* \*\*\*\*Water levels begin to decrease during October and begin to rise during April. There might not be sufficient water levels to boat from October-May. Guests should still be able to fish from the dock! \*\*\*\* Guest Access: The house has a lockbox with key at the front door which will provide you access to the house. The code will be provided upon check-in. You will have full and private access to the home. The Neighborhood: Lovely spot on the Chickamauga Lake portion of the Tennessee River with great fishing. House is located in a quiet spot at the end of a no outlet street. Getting Around: A vehicle is definitely needed as we are located in a rural area. Other Things to Note: Please note that there is currently no internet at the home. We love being able to disconnect and make the most of our time on the river; however, when needed, a cellphone will work for basic services. Disposal is turned on by the countertop button. The light switch next to the sink must be flipped on for it to work. The path down to the water is paved but very steep; therefore, it is not an option for everyone. We kindly ask guests to treat all towels and linens with care. If any items are stained or damaged beyond repair, a replacement fee will be charged to cover the cost of new linens. This helps us maintain a high standard of cleanliness and comfort for all future guests. Thank you for your understanding! We require a signed rental agreement, and for guests to be 21 years of age to book. If you notify us of your intent to cancel prior to the lapse of the free cancellation period, we will return 97% of your payment. The other 3% will already have been collected by the credit card processing company, and we have no way to return that portion of the payment. Interaction with Guests: We like to give our guests maximum privacy, so we offer contact-free check-in via a lockbox. Just know that we are only a phone call away if ever the need arises during your stay! ## Property amenities ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Office ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - On a lake - On a river - On the waterfront ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,100 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/65000000/64660000/64657200/64657131/99f62ad3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private indoor pool Spacious Upgraded Lake Cabin.
