The Starks had their kitchen hood hand carved while using historical and repurposed materials while building their Lake Front Estates residence near Spring City, Tenn.

Check out this article featured in the Chattanooga Times Free Press about the home on Lot 56 in Lakefront Estates!

Two of the Lakefront Estates residents pulled this huge catfish our of the lake the other day.  They think it weighed about 30 lbs!

Island Birds

I took this picture of birds on an island straight out from Lot 36.  They are ALWAYS there – so crazy.  Someone told me they might be “comorants”. 

Comorants were used by fisherman to catch larger fish, then spit them back out because of a band that was placed around their throat – yuck!!!

Watts Bar lake still full in winter!

Posted in Watts Bar Lake | No Comments »

Here is a picture I took of the shoreline yesterday - mid January. You can see that the water level is barely down from full summer pool.  Watts Bar only drops down between 2 and 6 feet in the winter, while some other TVA lakes drop over 30 feet. We think this year-round water is one of the very best reasons to be at Lakefront Estates.
