About this cabin rental

Gray Pine Cabin offers an idyllic setting to unplug in nature and start your lake adventure. Originally built by a Nashville songwriter, this three-story cabin has undergone a two-year renovation and now includes high-end finishes, a chef's kitchen with Smeg appliances and coffee bar, modern bathrooms with rainfall showerheads and Bluetooth speakers, and a vibey rec room perfect for board games, listening to vinyl on our turntable and enjoying your favorite (guest-provided) libation from the adjoining bar closet. You'll also experience designer-curated vintage/antique/contemporary decor throughout that marries the whimsy of the lakeside forest with upscale taste. Unparalleled, year-round views of gorgeous Eagle Creek Cove on Center Hill Lake await from an amazing rooftop deck with gas firepit and teak furniture or from the main floor deck with a Weber gas grill and dining area. The lower-level screened porch offers seasonal lake views and is always surrounded by a wooded canopy. And if you do have to pull yourself away from the view to work, the cabin has high-speed Internet as well as a dedicated desk. Roku TV with streaming capabilities in living and rec room.

We always go on a summer kayaking trip and this cabin was wonderful for this year's trip. It was clean and modern but had a lot of really unique decorations. There were lots of thoughtful touches that made it special. It was incredibly peaceful and had a nice view. We greatly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a great time at Center Hill.

We just returned from a week spent at Gray Pines Cabin and could not have hoped for a more perfect spot to stay while visiting my son and his family in Smithville! We loved morning coffee on the deck with gorgeous lake views and relaxing evenings with a glass of wine. The fabulous kitchen is stocked with everything one could think of needed to cook a fabulous meal, down to charcuterie board knives and utensils to baking supplies for a peach crisp!! The bedrooms were comfy and cozy and the beds, dreamy! The peace and tranquillity of the cabin and its location, all the sweet little touches throughout, made the cabin the most memorable and wonderful “home away from home” and we cannot wait to return!

I stayed here with two friends to celebrate a 60th birthday. The cabin is gorgeous and beautifully appointed. Each floor has its own balcony and outdoor seating area. I stayed in the bottom floor room and had a bar area, lounge, deck, office area, full laundry, and full bath with Bluetooth speaker in the shower. The kitchen is high end with ample dishes and utensils. We enjoyed sitting together for meals in the dining room and on the deck, and hanging out in the living room. The nearby towns of Smithville and Cookville offered plenty of fun things to do and restaurants. The hosts offered great advice that made my trip planning easy. The cabin also has beautiful art and interesting books - we all order some books that we saw there online so they would be waiting for us when we got home. We also enjoyed the view and the sound of birdsong.

Very impressed with the quality and level of accommodations. Off the beaten path and private but close to many hikes and amenities. we truly looked forward to coming back to the quaint and well appointed cabin after a long day of hiking. We strongly recommend.

This cabin is immaculate, and there was no detail overlooked. From the luxurious bedding, to the technology in the bathrooms, to the amenities in the kitchen to the view from every angle, you will not be disappointed. The rooftop deck holds jaw dropping views, and we had a fantastic weekend trip with friends. The hosts were so helpful and could also run a full service travel agency based on the local recs they sent us—we were not short of things to do and places to see. We simply cannot say enough good things about Gray Pine Cabin, and we will definitely be back!
