Lakefront Retreat w/Dock, Hot Tub & Firepit


Welcome to your perfect Tim’s Ford Lake getaway! Enjoy stunning lake views from nearly every room and a cozy, nautical-inspired gathering space. The large dining table seats 10, ideal for family meals. With spacious sleeping areas, including a bonus room for kids, there's room for everyone. Relax in the hot tub, enjoy the boat dock, fire pit, gas grill, game room with 70" Smart TV, pool table, ping pong, foosball, yard games, and a fully equipped kitchen.

Designed with families and groups in mind, this spacious lakefront retreat offers plenty of room to gather together while still providing space to spread out and relax. With three separate living areas—including a main-floor living room, a large basement family room, and a bonus room with its own sitting area—multiple families can comfortably enjoy their stay.

The fun continues with a pool table, foosball table, hot tub, and a large outdoor fire pit perfect for evening s'mores and conversations under the stars. Enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at sunset from the peaceful screened-in porch overlooking beautiful views of the lake.

Guests also have complimentary use of two adult kayaks and one child's kayak, making it easy to explore the lake and enjoy the water during your stay.

The fully equipped kitchen and gas grill make meal preparation easy, whether you're cooking indoors or hosting a lakeside cookout. Whether you're here for boating, fishing, family time, or simply relaxing by the water, this home provides the perfect setting for making lasting memories at Tim's Ford Lake.

Lake Information: We enjoy year-round water at our dock. However, from approximately November through March, lake levels are lowered by the TVA, which can make the gangway to the dock steeper than during the summer months. The dock remains accessible, but guests should be aware of the increased incline during this time of year.
Our spacious driveway and front lawn provide ample parking for 10+ vehicles, with plenty of room for boat trailers. While the owner's boat is stored on the lift and the covered slip is not available, guests may tie up their boat alongside the dock, which is equipped with protective bumpers.

A neighborhood boat ramp is conveniently located nearby, along with a convenience store offering marine fuel and boating essentials.

Please Note

• This is a strictly non-smoking property.
• The covered boat slip is not available for guest use, as it is occupied by the owner's boat.


Bring With You:
* Life jackets- we encourage all swimmers and boaters to use life jackets for their own safety.
* Fishing Gear- for the dock or on excursions. Fishing licenses can be purchased online or at the local marina or Walmart.
* Extra beach towels for use on the lake. we have a limited amount of beach towels available for your use, but you may want to bring extra if you have several people.
*Sleeping bags or air mattresses- while we are fine with guests using sleeping bags and air mattresses to best accommodate your group with sleeping arrangements, these are not provided. please feel free to bring and use your own.

PERFECT LOCATION AND GREAT FOR THE FAMILY

The house was beautiful and perfect for our family and friends. The ping pong table, pool table, tv, fire pit, and hot tub kept everyone busy. The house was very close to many restaurants and to Bonnaroo Farm which is why we chose it. The property managers were very easy to get in touch with when needed. You won't be disappointed with this property.

Great Family Home

Here’s a polished and enthusiastic review you can post on Vrbo:---We had a fantastic weekend at this beautiful lake house! The home was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, and the lake itself was absolutely gorgeous. We loved having access to the dock and kayaks, perfect for swimming, fishing, and relaxing on the water. The host was incredibly responsive and kind, even when I forgot to start the dishwasher before we left. Everything about our stay exceeded expectations. I highly recommend this rental and would love to return!

PERFECT family trip!!!

My daughter-in-law reached out around Christmastime about taking another fun family trip to celebrate my son's 40th birthday. The process of searching for the right spot was overwhelming for her, so I gladly took the reins. I love finding the perfect spot and have done so many times with our extended family. In all, there were 13 of us, from ages 7 to 65. This amazing place exceeded our expectations, and everyone raved about it! Perfectly set up with enough space for everyone to be comfortable and nobody was on top of each other. The house is so large that we could easily have groups in various areas and never hear the others. My husband was in charge of setting up our 'Olympic Game' competition, which took place on Saturday afternoon. SO much fun, utilizing the game room and the kayaks and dock. I cannot say enough about the house and the host. April was amazing, and quickly responsive to any questions I had. She even had three little trophies waiting for us after I had mentioned we planned these games. What a sweet and thoughtful thing to do! We all agreed that a short distance like this is so much more manageable with everyone's busy schedules. We used to do beach trips often, but this was much easier. The house was stocked with everything we needed. We ordered pizzas from Piezan using Uber Eats on the first night, and that was scrumptious! A 'throwback' to 1985 meal the next night, and grilled burgers the final night. I'm sure we'll be back and can't wait!!
