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.




Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
This smoke-free vacation home offers books.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Beautiful Views
The view of Pickwick Lake is absolute perfection, especially sunrise. The rental was exactly as described. Clean. We had an issue checking in with the code box. I contacted the owner and she sent someone over immediately. We were in within 20 minutes. Very pleased with our stay! We will stay here again in the future.

Great views
Rented this for a couple nights on our anniversary trip down the Natchez Trace. What a super cute little cottage. Perfect for the two of us but there would have been room for the kids too. We wanted something quiet - and it was. Gorgeous sunrises and sunsets. A little sketch getting down that gravel drive on the motorcycle is my only thing negative that I can say. Would def recommend. Comfy bed, clean and the AC was crankin when we arrived after a long hot day on the bike.

Waterloo cabin
This was our first experience with VRBO, and we were very pleased. The cabin was perfect for us two, and our small family gathering. The stairs to the water were a bit more than we expected, but there is a small deck halfway up perfect for a quick rest. The website gave us the wrong address initially, which set us back a bit, but with some prompt communication with the host, it was remedied and we were on our way. Definitely worth it!!

Heaven on Earth
We had the most wonderful and very special stay at the cabin. The hosts were extremely helpful before we arrived, they answered questions swiftly and gave great recommendations. The view takes your breath away and I got up every morning to watch the sunrise and listen to the wildlife, it was very special and made leaving today very difficult. The cabin is lovely and well kitted out, it had everything we needed. I really could not recommend this place and the hosts enough, amazing, thank you.

Perfect lake cottage
We loved the cottage, it was perfect! We loved watching the sunset and the moonlight at night was beautiful on the water. The stairs leading down to the water was so nice the 2 different levels to enjoy! We plan on coming back in the summertime. Thank you to our hosts, they both were so kind!

A big disappointment
The online pictures were deceptive. Bed looked to be a king but was only a double. There were gnats on the walls, floor, and bed in the upper bedroom. Our son had to sleep on the sleeper sofa. The kitchen had no measuring spoons or cups. There was no dishwasher or washer and dryer. Also the steps down to the water were very steep, uneven, and overgrown with weeds. There were no blinds on the windows next to the pullout sofa so the morning glare woke my son. We won't be staying here again and it was very disappointing to know we had to pay the high rental fee for what we received.

Great Weekend
This is a great property! We enjoyed so many things about it....the view, the location, the peace & quiet, the coziness--it was all amazing! My husband took the boat and we spent mornings and evenings fishing. It was so quick and easy to get to the boat ramp. We also enjoyed just sitting on the patio and relaxing while watching the river. Had some good steaks and hot dogs from the grill and picked up a quick meal from the nearby cafe. One afternoon, we took a drive into Tennesse to see the Shilo Battleground and found Hagy's Catfish Hotel nearby for some great food! Viviane was super nice and easy to work with. We could not ask for a better stay and hope we can come back!
