Ladies Weekend
We had 7 ladies in our group. This is our second time staying at the house. We love it!!! The house is clean, comfortable, had all the utensils we needed to cook meals and most of all, a beautiful lake view and a great back porch. We are planning on returning again next year.

Beautiful, large home with great water view
Beautiful view of the Shoals Creek inlet to the TN river. Yes, it's called a creek, but it's 1/4-mile wide at this location, and the house has a clear view across with upstairs & downstairs decks...great for morning coffee. The home was very well equipped with everything we could ask for.

Family together at Thanksgiving
We used Shoals Creek Retreat as a central location so our family could be together for Thanksgiving. The place was just what we needed. It is very comfortable, with a relaxing view and atmosphere. We look forward to going back in warmer weather so we can enjoy the water activities.

Friends gathered at the lake
The house was exceptional. It was perfect for 6 friends to gather to fish and watch football. The house was complete with everything we needed and located and tagged for all to find . The most complete house we have ever rented . The fishing dock was also complete with everything one would need to fish . My group caught a 20 lbs catfish , bass and bream from the dock . Tony has done a great job to make this house a wonderful place to stay . I would recommend it to anyone. .

Ladies Weekend
We had a total of 6 women for the weekend. The property was perfect for our gathering! Everything was clean and plenty of good quality towels. There was lots of seating inside and out and we loved the back porch swing bed. We used the kayaks and stand up paddleboard and enjoyed sun and shade on the dock. The sunset from the second floor deck was beautiful. Great property!
