This floating catamaran offers the ultimate escape, nestled in a secluded rural setting, yet merely 30 minutes from Chattanooga. The vessel accommodates four guests, featuring a well-appointed kitchen and living room, a master bedroom with a queen-size bed adorned with crisp white hotel linens, and a queen loft bedroom. The property also boasts a spacious kitchen and living area, a nice shower bathroom . Guest access Experience ridiculously awesome fishing and swimming at this floating catamaran that's basically a hotel on water. This swanky one-bedroom floating cabin features a queen-size bed with linens so crisp they'll make you feel like royalty, and a loft bedroom with a queen-size bed. The cabin has one bathroom with a shower and separate toilet, but let's be real, you're going to want to use the cool privy bathroom with an outdoor shower because it's way more fun. And when you're not swimming or fishing, you can hang out and fish on the party deck with a boat slip, or roast marshmallows at the fire pit, or just lounge around on the swimming platform. And the best part? It's only 30 minutes to Chattanooga and 15 minutes to Kimball/Jasper, Tennessee, so you can easily pop into town for some good food or shopping. Fast internet and high-speed cable TV are included. Other things to note Make sure and get your snacks and food before you head out to the floating cabin. It is a very hidden gym in the middle of the woods and once you get there, you don’t wanna turn around and go back for snacks. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the accommodation: WiFi ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom ### Entertainment - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Patio ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Things to do - Gym ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78330000/78328900/78328838/b3ef62bc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 41 Foot Boat on Tennessee River, 15 minutes from Chattanooga Guild - Pool - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=78328838&PinnedHotelID=78328838&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/84000000/83030000/83023000/83022922/7b063358.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bennett Lake Tiny Cabin Whitwell - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 63 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=83022922&PinnedHotelID=83022922&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113300000/113297300/113297291/d5adce7b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxury River Cabin: Hot Tub, Decks, Amazing Views Whitwill - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 9.6 Exceptional 4 reviews £422 includes taxes & fees 29 Oct - 30 Oct [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-29&endDate=2025-10-30&selected=113297291&PinnedHotelID=113297291&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/40000000/40000000/39998300/39998246/15360109.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Riverfront home sitting in the heart of the Tennessee River Gorge 4 bdrm/4 bath Chattanooga - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 9.4 Exceptional 201 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=39998246&PinnedHotelID=39998246&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/25000000/24890000/24889900/24889867/e875f7a1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tennessee's Grand Canyon! 10 Min From Downtown Chattanooga!
