Whether you’re planning a peaceful getaway or a family gathering, our scenic lakeside setting makes the perfect backdrop for honoring the holiday and enjoying the great outdoors.

Celebrate the Season, Honor the Day

Our peaceful location on Watts Bar Lake provides the ideal space for quiet reflection—whether it’s watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee or gathering around the campfire under the stars.


Activities for Everyone

A Memorial Day retreat wouldn’t be complete without fun in the sun—and Watts Bar Lake delivers.
