    The house was amazing and there was so much room for me and my family. There were eighteen of us and we all fit comfortably. Everything was stocked really well. I have never rented a place where so much was provided. The kitchen was completely stocked! We had a blast and can’t wait to go back!

    The house was more than equipped with everything. Was great having 2 large refrigerators. Dock area was super along with the gazebo area. Would highly recommend for a large group or family.

    This was the perfect accommodation for our family. It was so spacious and the home had so many things to accommodate us, baby high chair, pack and play was added bonus we didn’t know about.

    This lake house is absolutely beautiful and had plenty enough room for our group of 14 adults ! We enjoyed the peaceful scenery from the porch rocking chairs , catching nice big catfish right off the boat dock and gathering in the large open living/dining room space for the many meals we cooked ! The kitchen was well stocked with everything you may need to make a meal except large pots ! Thankfully we brought our own so that was not a problem ! The only recommendation would be to trim the lower branches on the trees for a better view of the water ! We had a great time and would love to stay there again

    We Had a wonderful time such a beautiful location plenty of room for everyone. Everything was so green the kids thought it was a jungle. My only suggestion is exterior lawn maintenance grass was overgrown sidewalks and patio areas needed some upkeep. Definitely not a deal breaker we hope to come again. Thank you for having us

    This property is amazing!! A very private cabin sitting on a large river front lot, which features panoramic views of the Tennessee River. The property features an extremely nice, two-bay covered boat dock, just steps from the cabin. Although we were there to celebrate Christmas with our family, we would love to come back this summer with the boat!!We had a party of 16, adults and teenagers. There was more than enough room, with 6 bedrooms and two seperate lofts for the kids.Communication with the host was met with a response within minutes, which I really appreciate. I would recommend this property, and hope that we return.

    If you’re looking for a large home with plenty of space, this is it. We met over the weekend for our family Christmas, several families and there was plenty space for everyone. Beautiful lakefront view but also reminds you of being in the mountains. House has everything you need. We will definitely be back.

    Brought a group to enjoy the weekend. Lots of flexibility with all the rooms. The kitchen was well equipped (better than most). The dock was an easy walk and enjoyable spot for views and relaxing.

    This is the 2nd year we've utilized this property for our church leadership/planning retreat. We enjoy the location, tranquility and outdoor spaces this property offers. The dock is great for fishing or just relaxing, and the house itself is wonderful for large groups. We plan to make this an annual stop for our leaders and to even extend it a day longer next year. Excellent communication response from the property manager - always quick to answer questions. Highly recommend.

    Our group enjoyed our stay in this roomy lake front home. Nina was very prompt and helpful with any questions. The stairs to the lofts are very steep but we did have 3-4 that managed them. It would also be great if there was more lighting in the beautiful great room.

    We absolutely loved this property: the lake, the location, the house size, the 2 refrigerators, the amount of land that allowed us to set up a bouncy house for the kids and the amount if parking. Relaxing views, especially for sunrise yoga/pilates. The only thing would be the outside spider webs, yes its a wooded lot so nothing much to complain about in those circumstances. Overall, owner was very responsive and it was a great stay.

    What a beautiful place to stay! The home was exactly the size we needed. The owners thought of everything. There was a portable crib and high chair for the baby. The bedrooms were perfect. We used the rockers on the porch a lot. There were two refrigerators to hold all of the food. We enjoyed the size of the beautiful kitchen table to play games all day and night. The kids enjoyed the outdoor patio and gazebo. And several fish were caught off the dock!! The only thing that we had to do on our own was find a way to get rid of all the spider webs outside. Also, it was mayfly season. Really those things were beyond the owners’ control.
