The H.U.G
Everything was perfect and just as described in the listing. The space was clean and had everything we needed. It was the perfect size for three adults and one child. I would definitely stay here again.

The Coalmont Cove - Waterfront Retreat w/ HOT TUB
Perfect getaway with my husband for his birthday! It’s always a bit of a gamble, we’ve had airbnbs that were NOT the way they appeared in the pictures but that wasn’t the case this time. It was exactly as described. The video instructions were helpful and thorough. It was cute, clean, and well stocked with little touches like toiletries, everything you need in the kitchen, outdoor options etc. We appreciated the binder of local sights and suggested restaurants, so helpful! The only things that could have made it better for us would have been robes and shades on the two windows near the door for more privacy. The hosts were excellent and even let us go check out their cabin on the other side of the property since no one was staying there. It is beautiful and had so many nice touches. We would love to bring our children to the cabin sometime.

Solace at Fall Creek Falls
Cabin was perfectly located. Short drive to Fall Creek Falls. My son got married at the falls and this space was clean, well equipped and beautiful. Perfect relaxing weekend!!

Fall Creek Falls Getaway
Wonderful stay in a beautiful area. Fall Creek Falls was just a short drive away and the home itself was very cozy and peaceful.

Unique 3-Bed Cabin with fireplace and waterfall
The property was absolutely stunning—truly even more beautiful in person. The waterfall was just a short walk away and exceeded all expectations; it was even more breathtaking than the photos. The house itself was also much more spacious than it appeared in the pictures, which was a wonderful surprise. I would highly recommend this place to anyone and would definitely love to stay here again!

Lake Home Dog Friendly Sleeps 4 Waterfalls Golf
Truly a magical place! Relaxing and peaceful right on the water. My husband and two dogs had the best getaway with the best view of the lake around (right from the living room and bedroom!). Highly recommend. Private and only 20 min from anything you would ever need.

Collins River Cottage
We had a wonderful stay! We hiked to surrounding waterfalls and grilled every night. The cozy cottage had all we needed for our peaceful getaway.

Jump-rock River cabin
I almost don’t want to leave this review because I want to keep this hidden gem all to myself—but it absolutely deserves the recognition! This stay was a dream come true. It felt completely off the grid yet still had all the comforts we needed. Secluded, peaceful, and beautifully serene. From the scenic drive in to the spotless home, the thoughtful layout, the inviting covered porches, and the soothing sounds of the nearby river—every detail was perfect. There were even extra activities and spaces to enjoy that made the stay even more special. We’ve been exploring local Airbnb stays for months, and Rosette and Martin’s home is hands down the best we’ve found. We’ll definitely be back—next time, we plan to spend even more time walking and relaxing by the river!
Your guide to Fall Creek Falls Lake
Welcome to Fall Creek Falls Lake
Tennessee is often overlooked for its outdoor splendor, but with 56 state parks and hundreds of waterfalls, the Volunteer State has more than enough to keep nature lovers busy. At 256 feet tall, Fall Creek Falls is not just one of Tennessee’s most visited waterfalls, but one of the tallest in the eastern United States. Within the 29,800-acre park, there’s no shortage of activities to keep you busy, from laid-back endeavors like fishing and birding to more adrenaline-pumping feats such as mountain biking the 24 miles of trails or tackling the Canopy Challenge Course. Though Fall Creek Falls may be the centerpiece of the eponymous state park, it’s not the only gusher around: Piney Falls, Cane Creek Falls, and Cane Creek Cascades are also worth beholding. The park is also surrounded by other outdoor recreational areas like Savage Gulf and Fiery Gizzard. The Nature Center at Fall Creek Falls offers numerous activities and educational programs throughout the year, and the state park also frequently hosts live music, art programming, and other events.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Fall Creek Falls Lake
Early April into May is prime time for waterfall hopping in Tennessee, though if you plan to take a dip in Fall Creek Falls, summer is when the swimming conditions are at their best and the water is nice and warm. Tennessee enjoys mild, balmy autumn weather, with pleasant temperatures through November and the opportunity to see the changing of the leaves. Though Tennessee does not receive much snow, winter does bring an occasional frost, lending an entirely different picture to the falls area as it’s blanketed in white and frozen over with icicles, making it a great time to cozy up in one of the area’s cabins. Just know that trails can be icy during the rare winter storm, so proceed with caution.
Top things to do in Fall Creek Falls Lake
McMinnville
The closest major town to Fall Creek Falls is McMinnville, 42 miles west. With bold displays of public art and a well-preserved Main Street, it’s worth the day trip to poke around McMinnville and take a float down the Barren Fork River that parallels downtown.
Cumberland Caverns
Cumberland Caverns occupies nearly 30 miles of subterranean passages, caves, and falls. Opt for one of the many tours, including an overnight excursion that allows you to wiggle, squeeze, and shimmy your way through the caves’ often narrow channels.
The Isha Institute of Inner-Sciences
From a distance, this large geodesic structure looks like a spaceship parked in the middle of the Tennessee wilderness. But this mysterious dome is actually part of the Isha Institute and draws healers, yogis, and wellness seekers to its many offerings that include free workshops, meditations, and guided nature walks.
