9 to 5 | Lakefront Retreat in the Smokies

9 to 5 Retreat is a beautifully designed lake-area home created for guests who want space, comfort, and a more refined Smoky Mountains stay. Located in a gated neighborhood near the lake, this three-bedroom home combines thoughtful design, seasonal lake views, and access to the water — without the crowds or chaos of tourist-heavy areas.

During the summer months, the home offers lake views from multiple rooms and outdoor spaces, including the bedrooms and deck areas. A private pathway leads to lake access, making it easy to enjoy the shoreline. While there is no boat dock, the access allows guests to walk down and experience the water up close. The property also features both a gas fire pit on the patio and a separate wood-burning fire pit area overlooking the lake, creating multiple spaces to unwind outdoors.

Inside, the home blends comfort and function. The main level features a spacious open-concept living area, a beautiful kitchen designed for gathering, and large windows that bring in natural light and lake views. The master suite includes a king bed, walk-in shower, and jacuzzi tub, offering a true retreat feel. Additional bedrooms include queen beds and flexible sleeping options with pull-out sofas, making the home ideal for families or small groups. Downstairs, guests will find an entertainment area along with arcade games and a dedicated gym space — rare amenities that make this home stand out.

With two large decks, an open driveway with easy parking, and a peaceful gated setting near the lake, 9 to 5 Retreat is designed for guests who want to slow down, enjoy the scenery, and experience the Smokies with comfort and privacy.
