Log Cabin/Cottage on Watts Bar Lake

Come escape to Blue Heron Cabin located on Watts Bar lake with private boat slip included (Seasonal water levels May - October)! This custom log cabin offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms and accommodates up to 8 guests. The screened in porch overlooks the quiet cove, just steps away from Watts Bar Lake. The home is centrally located, about an hour away from Knoxville and Chattanooga, and on the doorstep of the Great Smoky Mountains. Trade the noise of the city for the peace and quiet of nature along with a sky full of stars at night.

Blue Heron Cabin offers both solace in nature and a gateway to 72 miles of fun on Watts Bar Lake. Entering the house, you’ll notice the charm of the rustic log cabin. Inside the kitchen and living room, accented by wood walls throughout the upper level. Head through the glass doors in the living room and you’ll be immersed in nature within the screened in porch, complete with patio furniture and an outdoor table. The master bedroom is located upstairs with a queen bed and private bathroom.

Downstairs provides plenty of space for more relaxing with a sofa/sleeper, recliner, and twin day bed with trundle. The downstairs bedroom also boasts queen size bed. There is also a full bathroom with a tub and shower.

Outside, you’ll find a fire pit, porch swing, and plenty of peace and quiet. A path leads from the back porch to the boat slip (water at pier from April 15 thru November 1st). The dock provides plenty of space for swimming and fishing. Two kayaks are provided for your enjoyment. Boats can be rented from nearby Marinas, or you can bring your own boat and park it at the private dock!.

Relaxing atmosphere
It was a pre 50th Anniversary stay. So relaxing and calming. The dock and fire pit were fabulous. Everything we needed was there. My only wish is that it was closer to Gatlinburg. It was a haul to get out there but once back you appreciated the seclusion. Wonderful cabin on the calmest lake I have ever seen! Loved it but it was too short!

Checking Out Watts Barr Lake
The house and owners provided everything required for an enjoyable stay. Having the boat dock was nice for going out on daily boat rides and exploring the lake. We enjoyed the screened in patio and the fire pit. Very peaceful and relaxing place to get away.

You won't be disappointed
My girlfriend and I wanted to get away for a long weekend with our two dogs. This cabin was the perfect choice. It was both quiet and relaxing. If you have a boat, this would make for a great getaway. We also caught some nice bass off the dock. We'd definitely stay here again.

Exceeded My Expectations
What a beautiful, well kept property. This was the perfect home to get away. It’s in a cove so the water is calm and ideal for kayaking. The screened in patio was ideal to enjoy the outdoors while keeping bugs out. Boat rental is 10 min away and also has a better than expected restaurant. August is hot and humid so if that’s an issue, another month might be better. Grocery store is a good 30 minutes out, so stock up before you get there. Overall an outstanding property. I highly recommend.
