About this property

Winter Getaway at The Magnolia Suite - Hot tub, fire pit, kayaks, & lake access!

Come enjoy the winter weather at this lakefront guest suite located in the historic Magnolia House. Surrounded by beautiful acreage, woods, and BREATHTAKING unrestricted lake views! Play corn hole, life size chess/checkers, take a dip in the pool, play in the sand area or on the playground, make some delicious food on the grill, cozy up by the fire pit and roast some s'mores, swim or kayak in the cleanest water on Weiss Lake, watch AMAZING sunsets from the dock! SO much to do on property!

Other guests may stay on property but this unit is private and has the best views. Have boats or watercraft of your own? Bring them! We have a boat ramp right onsite and plenty of room for your trailers, as well as docking. Play volleyball, corn hole, Beersbie, ladder golf, giant Jenga or just play in the cleanest, coolest water on the lake. The water comes right out of the mountains and dumps right at our feet. Great fishing as well in season. We are actually in one of the best areas to fish, right near Little River and Spring Creek! Eat s'mores by the campfire at the beach and watch AMAZING sunsets! String Light courtyard, privacy, and plenty of room to stretch out! SO much to do!

Not only is there so much to do on the property, there is also so much to do off property! Rent a boat or jet skis, hike, see the falls, do caving, rappelling or ziplines, all in close proximity. Close to Pirate's Bay (water park), DeSoto Falls, Cherokee Rock Village, Little River Canyon, Orbitz Glassblowing, snow skiing, horseback riding, endless trails, rappelling, caving and ziplining. We are in the ABC triangle meaning we are an hour & a half from the Atlanta, Birmingham, & Chattanooga Airports. Of course we are a HUGE fishing lake so bring your boat or do a fishing excursion.

The views are incredible and the house has 1870 charm mixed with 21st century décor and conveniences. Breathtaking views of the lake and lawns and you can even see how the sunset pours colors into the house at "golden hour". We also have LOTS of stars, it just gets better & better!

1. Luxurious sleeping quarters with hotel linens and towels.

2. Smart/roku tv that has cable with TONS of stations. and access to Netflix, Hulu, etc.

3. Corn hole, life size chess/checkers, board games, life size Jenga, sand area, grill, dock, and a bunch of other things.

4. Brand new Game Room with arcade games (Ms. Pacman, Galaga, Mini Paw - Patrol), Ping-Pong, Pool table, Ski ball, arcade Basketball, and 2 TV's.

5. Beautiful side patio, lawn, and balcony to sit and watch the sunset! You can also watch the sunset directly from the "sleeping porch" in your unit.. breathtaking!

6. Resort pool (seasonal), hot tub, playground, sand volleyball court, and in ground trampoline! HUGE hit with the kiddos.

7. Brand new Outdoor Kitchen with a large propane grill, sink, refrigerator, and plenty of counter space! **Propane Provided.

8. Great location.

9. Beautiful views all around.

10. Meticulous Inside and Out.

11. Grocery delivery/catering option provided by outside vendors (not the property). Please request more information about this.

12. Outdoor wood burning fire pit. **Wood provided.

13. Kayaks, a canoe, dock, beach with seating, a fire pit stocked with firewood so you can experience those memories that will last a lifetime.

14. Propane fire pit

15. The backyard is jaw dropping. Covered pavilion with brand new stone floor, multiple conversation areas and dining alfresco. Turn on the string lights for visual effect or light the propane fire pit and see the stars. 

16. Outdoor foosball.

17. Hot Tub

18. Lifejackets, coolers, ADA shower chair, pack n' plays, and high chair is provided.

19. Resort Ice machine on sit (at the pool area)

Guests of the private Magnolia Suite will enjoy an oversized en-suite bedroom; an eat-in kitchen; air conditioned, glassed-in Lakeview porches and an additional full bath. This suite has its own exterior entrance and also can use the shared amenities such as laundry room, ice machine, gazebo, Outdoor foosball and ping pong table, the grounds, the string light patio, beach, pool, volleyball, cornhole, kayaks, canoe, and the amazing dock. The beach and dock have seating and places to eat by the water.

The property is in a rural area. Restaurants are 15 minutes away and there are grocery shopping in the area also about 10-15 minutes away. We are lakefront and we also have a dock to swim or fish. Bring your boat if you want to; we have a boat ramp and we also have a pontoon boat for rent. There is plenty of room to store trailers and the dock has electricity to charge your trolling motors. How nice would it be to stay on the northernmost part of the lake with the BEST fishing and cleanest water and you do not have to pull your boat out every day?

Traveling in a group? On same property we have a 4 bedroom that sleeps 13, a 3 bedroom inside the main house that sleeps 9, and a 2 studio apartment that sleeps 6.

**The lake level does go down a few feet in late fall through early spring and may affect boat launch, dock usage, watersports or lake views.
**All outdoor amenities are shared.
**We do allow pets; however, there are requirements that must be met. Please discuss with us before booking.
**The twin metal bunk beds have a weight limit of 220lbs upper and lower.
**There is a resort pool next door available to Magnolia guests. It is Seasonal Memorial Day-Early Fall but lenient off-season. This is a community pool and subject to possible intermittent pockets of unavailability due to potential privately booked events. Please do not book this property solely because of this pool. Not anticipating too much unavailability but want to disclose properly. Mostly Saturdays (if at all) anticipated and an occasional Sunday.

Magnolia Overlook is Sweet!

We enjoyed a tremendously great time at Magnolia Overlook. Our four grandkids ages 3 to 8 loved the playground, trampoline, chess board, hot tub and video games. Beautifully restored 1870 historic home with updated everything made for a very comfortable stay. Totally clean. The view is excellent. Our hosts were incredibly helpful and responsive, even advising about fishing and boating in the lake. We want to return to Magnolia Overlook and perhaps have a family reunion sometime.

A True Getaway

The guest suite was quite lovely and very clean. The suite came with LOTS of everything we needed (not like the other rental sites, lol). We selected this property for the views and the listed amenities. Once we landed at the suite, we did not leave. We woke to an awesome sunrise as we relaxed and enjoyed our visit. The managers were great and accommodating. We loved this place!!!

Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed our stay very much! The view of the water was beautiful! We also enjoyed the solitude of the area. I would like to know more about the history of the 1870’s house on the property. It is a gem! Dave and Ann, thank you for sharing your space with us!

Perfect spot to disconnect

We enjoyed our stay. Onsite, we biked the county road, kayaked in the lake, and roasted hot dogs in the fire pit. We also visited Desoto and Little River Canyon all and ate at the Wildflower (40 minutes away) all in a 3 day weekend. We look forward to returning when we can jump in the water too but November is a wonderful time for enjoying the beautiful colors of fall. Coffee is supplied but pack or pick up some food to have in the room because it is a bit of a trek to eat out and you definitely don't want to spend all of your time in the car when there's so many fun things to do!

Peace and beauty

It was a wonderful spot to just get away from all the chaos of 2020! We had a beautiful view, spacious lodging that was exactly as pictured and promised. Owners responded in minutes to any texts or questions we had. I could have stayed forever! All my friends were a little jealous of all the pictures I shared of the lake and the property!

Wonderful and Peaceful Escape

My husband and I took our annual “retreat” for ourselves here. It was amazing! The home is absolutely gorgeous. It has historic charm but is also tastefully updated to create a luxury atmosphere. The sunroom was our favorite place to sit and relax. The huge windows overlook the lake, and it makes for a great place to unwind. The owners also recommended some great restaurants and things to do. I definitely suggest staying here if you need some time to unplug and enjoy secluded relaxation. Thanks to the owners for a wonderful stay!

This place was perfect for our family! The property was stylish and well appointed!

A great place for our family of 4. A very stylish space the pictures don’t do it justice! The closed in porch is huge, and has two futons which were perfect for our kids to sleep on. Both bathrooms were extremely clean, and the showers were powerful and hot! I highly recommend booking this apartment, if looking to stay in the area!

About the host

Hosted by Dave and Ann, Owners

Host profile image
We have been married for 26 years and have two AMAZING kids. We both have hospitality backgrounds and own and operate The Magnolia House On Weiss Lake and YourBigLakeHouse.com, and we have other properties on this site and others. We are also in the Real Estate business. Our passion is to ensure that everyone of our guests has a FIVE STAR stay at our properties and we always try and go above and beyond. Thanks for considering staying with us!

Why they chose this property

Looking to get away? Looking to vacation at the lake? We are minutes from DeSoto Falls, Little River Canyon, Yellow Creek, Pirates Bay water park (summer only) and Orbix Hot Glass. Hiking, rock climbing, white water rafting and rappelling all in close proximity. Also we are ON THE LAKE! :-) We have a shared private beach area and dock and we rent a pontoon boat right onsite in warmer months. Book ahead as this boat is available to the public, first come basis. Complimentary kayaks and canoe and floats. Two fire pits (one propane and one wood-burning), volleyball, string light courtyard. Very remote yet only 10-20 minutes to grocery/Walmart and restaurants and 30-35 minutes to everything you need. Make memories of a lifetime. Just to make sure you know what you are booking: you have one suite inside a large old house. This listing is NOT the entire house. :-) No surprises, right? Yes, it has happened.

We have many more smaller units on the property, one that sleeps 59+ and one that sleeps 71+ is youre looking for more space! Ask us about them :) We can host retreats, family reunions, parties or corporate functions.

What makes this property unique

This historic home was built in 1870 by the Webbs. It was originally built down the hill where the lake is now. (When the water level drops you can still see the giant tree stumps from the two trees that were in the front yard). When the lake was built in late 50's, the owners of the house had it moved uphill so the house could be saved from impending flooding. Since they were then going to get a view of the lake, they turned the home so that the porches faced the new lake. The Poland family that purchased the property in the 1980's added glass to the front porches for four season enjoyment. The original front of the home, my favorite, faces the woods and has two OLD gigantic Magnolia tress; hence the name The Magnolia House. We bought it in 2017 and opened her up for events and for leisure travel.
