Bristol Wilderness ~ Lake House With Private DockOn beautiful South Holston Lake

We were in town for the Nascar races at Bristol. This is a great location to get away for some peacefulness but still be close to the track. This house is a well-kept, clean house, with a great view. Plenty of seating inside and out. The only issue we had was that this house was listed as a 5 bedroom (2 Queen, 4 Double, 1Twin) sleeping 12. When we showed up there were only 4 bedrooms (2 Queen, 2 Double, 1 Twin), one bedroom of which you must walk through in order to get to another bedroom. We went from having 7 beds to 5. This made it interesting finding sleeping arrangements for the 9 of us when not everyone married or small in size. We did make do sleeping on couches but not at all what we were expecting, nor what was listed when we reserved the hours. The landlord did update after we reached out but still does list too many beds, as of when we left the house there were 2 queens, 2 doubles, 1 twin, and a futon. Very disappointed with the landlord who would not work with us on this, we didn't even get a sorry, we did mess that up.

Clean, easy to find, location great.

Great service and cleanliness! Perfect for our Field Manager meeting. Thank you for being a great host.

Wonderful experience! Terrific location.

The host was wonderful to deal with and got back to us very quickly when a questioned needed answered. The dock and cove were great and you had the whole cove to yourself.

It was a beautiful location. It had room enough for everyone.

Great stay again this year. The house is exactly what we need. We are on the lake all and the house is convenient to the many areas we hang out at on the water. Delta Blues at Laurel Marina is wonderful. We did grill a lot again this year and had big breakfast each morning. New cookware and extra serving bowls is greatly needed. Hopefully we can make the trip again next year. Carol Osborne, Iowa

This home was absolutely perfect for our family. The location is perfect. We enjoyed swimming and the dock in our own little private cove. The proximity to laurel marina is also perfect. The home is very beautiful and clean with impeccable views. Our dogs were also very happy to be able to join us at the lake! 10 out of 10! Can’t wait to return!

We had a fantastic stay and I do plan to go back. 15 minutes from the race track, lots of a options near the property to buy essentials and fishing gear. Dock was a great area to fish and hang out. Host had great communication as well!

We had a great stay.

Barnard, was very communicative. The place was great fit for me and my family for Christmas. slept everyone comfortably.The only negative I have is there was dust and the bathtub was dirty. Like how a house gets dirty when no been around for awhile. Other than that I would definitely suggest for a lake side vacation.

Property was as described. Beautiful area not far from Bristol. We attended NASCAR night races and it was very convenient from race track. Visited downtown Bristol each day to explore food and activities. Close to Bristol caverns which kids enjoyed. Would love to come back to area and explore more.

The lake house was perfect for our family needs. There was plenty of room for all who stayed. For those who complained about spiders, just remember you are in the woods and that’s what nature is going to give you. Can’t wait until next year. Thank you Bernard for welcoming our family into your home.

Great stay. Probably my favorite rental. Bernard was awesome and available, the location was perfect and the house was everything we needed. Easy access to the water, marina down the street. There are steps lol There are spiders, webs, and insects outside. You are in the woods! but the house was clean and homey.

The lake house has a beautiful view. Plenty of room for the family, lots of steps kept us exercising! It could use a deep cleaning though, especially the bathrooms, and there was mice mess on one of the beds. The kitchen was clean and had sufficient pans etc, but not 1 sharp knife. Lots of deck area for sitting outside.
