⭐️The Maya II on Lake Malone⭐️

Lake Malone is the perfect getaway. Our home is right on the water (no stairs once you're off the deck). It has an amazing view. It has a fire pit (great for smores) outside. Cozy and quiet, you'll feel right at home here. Great for parents night out or family time at the lake, Lake Malone is beautiful and secluded but within a short driving distance (1.5 hours) to Nashville, TN, so easily doable for one night or a weekend or a longer relaxing stay.
