Perfect lake front cottage! Now with stairs to the water!

Nestled on a private mountain top overlooking Pickwick lake. This cottage was recently completely remodeled and offers the most relaxing stay. This property has beautiful lake views and its secluded spot on the lake, right across from bear creek, will be the perfect lake getaway for a couple or a small family. We have just added stairs down to the water! We also added a dock and a gazebo with amazing views.
There are two public boat ramps conveniently located 5 minutes ( less than a mile ) from property.

This cabin was an amazing escape! Beautiful sunsets in the morning and refreshing views sitting by the water. The space was perfect for a short get away. I’d recommend bringing all the food you want to cook as stores are not close and you’ll want to soak up all the time by the water and by a cozy fire! The hosts responded quickly to all questions and the cabin had everything we needed. Will definitely be returning to stay again in the future!

Our stay was fanatastic! We enjoyed the serene small town and enjoyed visiting Florence near by. Waterloo is a small quiet town, so be prepared to entertain yourself with movies and games as well as evening talks as you gaze out across the moonlit Tennessee River. Enjoy coffee to a beautiful sunrise! Lots of nature trails near by. Be prepared with groceries because stores are nearly 30 minutes one way. The host makes checking in easy and responds if you message. The cottage is clean and exceeded my expectations.

Wonderful Experience

The accommodations were wonderful. The property was clean and extremely nice with very thoughtful amenities. The view is spectacular, especially at sunset and the whole place is such a peaceful setting. Cell service is great, but WiFi is also available. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy the deck by the water. Would highly recommend.

Gorgeous water views. Perfect weekend getaway.

My husband and I had the most amazing weekend here! The view from the house was so beautiful. We also brought our boat. The launch was a 3 minute drive away from the house. Launching the boat and keeping it at the house was easy and convenient. It is the perfect weekend getaway.

Relaxing Holiday Break

We enjoyed our stay the property was very clean, and the views were amazing. This was just what we needed following the busy holiday season. The property owner was very responsive when I messaged her and that was greatly appreciated.We look forward to staying there again during the summer to utilize the river access.

Nice fishing weekend

The hosts answered immediately, previous review stated not the place for you if you don't care for spiders, that's 100% true. For house cleaning fee, hoped for a little better housekeeping but overall, worth the trip and money.
