Secluded Lake Tenkiller Cabin | 2 Acres | Sleeps16

The Space

Anchor Away is where lake weekends feel easy again.

Tucked away on 2 private wooded acres near Lake Tenkiller, this fully remodeled 5-bedroom bungalow was designed for big family gatherings, boat days, and late-night laughter around the table.

Inside you’ll find:
• Open-concept kitchen with newer appliances
• Comfortable sleeping for up to 16 guests
• Open common areas for games and meals
• Peaceful, tree-filled views from every window

Less than 1 mile to Carlisle Cove public boat ramp — launch in minutes and be on the water fast.

⸻

Outdoor Space

This is a true lake cabin — surrounded by nature, trees, and fresh Oklahoma air.

Large driveway (50’ wide, 150’ long) accommodates boats and trailers. It’s tight the first time backing in, but we’ve had everything from pontoons to wake boats fit comfortably.

Because we’re on wooded acreage, you may see normal Oklahoma wildlife and insects outdoors during warmer months — we maintain regular pest control service and keep the home professionally cleaned and sealed.


⸻

Location

• 1 mile to Carlisle Cove
• Near Cookson Bend & Six Shooter
• 45 min to Illinois River float trips
• Just over an hour from Tulsa

Lake Tenkiller is known for being less crowded than other Oklahoma lakes — but still offers restaurants, marinas, and fun summer energy.

Clean and Comfortable

Great beds, very clean place. Property feels private. Only downside is the dozens of little flies that come inside when you open the front door if you have ANY Lights on inside at all. Even in late November, this was a very real problem, with no apparent solution except to just stay inside. If the fire pit is not your thing, just stay inside, I guess.

This was our 2nd time to stay at Anchor Away. The boat ramp is super close and there is plenty of room to spread out. Also, having 2 refrigerators is super helpful with a crowd!

Our family getaway

We have stayed at this property now for two years. Its nice just not safe for elders the walkway is very treterious. The frige will not shut all the way due to the rubber gasket in the door not on the door. We lost some food due to it getting warm. We booked a new property for next year.

Great place to stay

The house was perfect for our group of 6 guys. We were there fishing a kayak fishing tournament. There was plenty of parking and the house had everything we needed. The ping-pong table was a huge bonus. The hosts were very accommodating and quick to respond to any inquiries.

Family Pictures

We needed a place to meet up and spend the day with our grown children and grandchildren who were coming in from others states and towns. This house worked great for us! The older kids loved the game room and the large front yard, the 3 babies and 3 toddlers had plenty of bedrooms for power naps. A very nice kitchen and the 2 refrigerators were appreciated!

We had three families of four for the weekend and we were all comfortable with our own space. We enjoyed having two refrigerators! There was ample parking for our vehicles and boat trailer. Cookson Bend Marina is only about a 10 minute drive away. Would stay here again!!

Good property for our guys fishing/golf trip. Only drawback was the 2nd shower (not in the master bedroom). It was small and with the water coming from overhead it made it a little difficult to use.
