Tims Ford Lake Retreat - The Got-Away

Welcome to The Got-Away, a place where you can relax & renew. The Got-Away is a play on the phrase "the fish that Got Away". Since Tims Ford offers wonderful fishing opportunities, we thought the name would be perfect. We want our home to be a place where you can escape life's hassles with family & friends. Our Dad loved to fish, and many of the items in The Got-Away were his. As an Army/Coast Guard Veteran, the water was a second home to him. We hope it will be for you and your guests as well.
The space
The Got-Away is perfect for couples, families or a group of friends looking to get away for a long weekend or week! Wake up and enjoy your morning coffee cozied up by the fireplace on our enclosed patio. Spend your evenings relaxing with your friends and family. The Got-Away is perfect for your getaway.
