Carolina Charm Lakefront Home with Dock
great location and very peaceful. very well stocked kitchen. would not hesitate to book again.

Lake Front Home with Private Dock in Gated BearPaw
This house has everything you need for a getaway. We stayed on the decks more than in the house. The furniture outside has been upgraded since the photos on the listing. Kitchen was spotless and had everything I need to cook for my family. I will be back. There are 125 steps to get to the water. I knew it would be a trek, so it didn’t bother me. But, just a heads up if you aren’t able to climb that many steps. All of the houses are like that.

Lazy Lake Lakefront 1bdrm 1 loft
4 guys weekend of fishing and boating. TV worked great for NCAA tournament watching. Lots of wildlife deer and turkey.

Private Lakefront Retreat on Douglas Lake
Excellent place to stay!! Definitely a great value -- Michael and Susan were fantastic and so kind.

Lake Living at its Best! Enjoy the great outdoors!
Shannon was incredibly helpful, communicative, and flexible. Her place was epic, as advertised. 10/10 recommend!

Nantahala Lake Family Home w/ Private Dock & Views
This vacation involved checking out the area for an upcoming wedding. For the house, we wanted lots of space in the house and easy parking, bathrooms for each family group, family space to hang out, easy walking, and of course access to the lake. All of these happened plus great porch space with the firepit and also the outdoor firepit. The stairs to the lake provided a work out and planning for the day. That is the only consideration for others to be aware of, is if they have a family member that has issues with stairs. The area is beautiful and exactly what we hoped for and this home with the easy contact for any issues or questions made it a great week!

“Unforgettable Sunrise” on Douglas Lake/ Smoky Mt
Michelle is always very welcoming and we absolutely love her home! Can’t wait to come back again!! Thank you for EVERYTHING 😊

The Lodge on Lake Santeetlah - Tail of the Dragon
Another year and another stay. Dina was great with communication, to arouse we arrived safely and also made sure we departed safely. Dina was very responsive when ever we had questions. As a car enthusiast, Dina location is great for multiple cars, although it is a steep incline to get in and out. it was no problem for us. We will continue to stay here every year we visit.

Lakehome-Dock&Spa by UT/Windrock/Golf, BOAT Avail.
Tracy and Chuck’s wonderful Lake Home was exactly as described and so clean!! We stayed there for my daughter’s graduation from UT and it fit 10 of us comfortably. The beds were so comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked and the property is beautiful! Tracy and Chuck answered all questions quickly. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you for being such amazing hosts!

Sleeps 8 | Firepit | Hot Tub | Private Lake Access
If you’re looking for a peaceful house free of the city chaos this is the place! The yard and lake were incredible for our dogs, all hiking trails were anywhere from 20-45 minutes away, but if you wanted to take in nature and soak up the sun you don’t even need leave the backyard! Definitely recommend a 4wd or AWD car in inclement weather , the neighborhood roads can be steep, but our Subaru handled it with no problems. Thanks again for allowing us and the dogs to stay here!

Family friendly Lakehouse - 30 min. from UTK
Beautiful location, great for a family gathering at the lake. Minor downside was lack of blankets. Kids area downstairs would be freezing unless you turned AC off, in which case the upstairs would be too hot to sleep. Washer and dryer were great to have, but washer didn't work too well. Everything else was great, deck, pool and dock. Would recommend.

Douglas Lake Campground Lakefront House, Dandridge
The house is as advertised. Everything was up to date and well stocked. Darlene responded quickly with any questions we had.

Secluded Lake Glenville Compound Prime Lake View
We had a great stay over Labor Day weekend. The home is very secluded with amazing views of the lake. Lisa communicated with us the entire time, providing a lot of information about the house and things to do in the surrounding area. Definitely recommend and hope to be back

Lake Sequoyah Cottage
Stunning setting overlooking a beautiful lake; just minutes from town. Very private setting. Loved the history of the cabin- so authentic to the area.

Blue Grapevine, king bed, games, fast internet
Mario's place is a true mountain hideaway. Rustic and comfy with enough bathrooms for a large family. Big living room to gather in, and spacey enough to get some time to yourself if needed. The place is well-stocked and clean. The vibe is clutter free and relaxed, homey and spacious. Woodsy with lots of birdsong and no neighbors within sight of the house except way down the mountain far away. There wasn't really anything we needed that we didn't find...extra blankets and pillows, toilet paper, paper towels, shampoo, etc. There was even a chalk marker to mark our initials on our water bottles. Really can't say enough great things about this stay, and don't have anything negative to say. Mario is an excellent host and really flexible, with very few rules other than to respect his property. Highly recommend all the way around!

Waterside Home, Hot tub, Fireplace, WiFi, Dog-OK
The host did a ton of up front work answering a lot of questions you may have. The place was well stocked. Beautiful location on the water. No cell service right near the place but instructions on how to navigate that are provided and easily followed. Rainy weekend in the sticks so it's expected, power went out but host reached out to me with updates which I appreciated very much. I would recommend this cabin!

Melton Away Lake House - Oak Ridge/Knoxville
Wonderful weekend at this lake house! It's just minutes to grocery stores and restaurants. We had two families and it worked out perfectly. The living room was a nice place to hangout, and the deck overlooking the lake was beautiful at sunset. The kitchen was nicely equipped. We were in town for a nationals bike race at Windrock Bike Park, and it was perfect. The distance was an easy 20 minutes or so. Shelley was VERY responsive and helpful with any questions. I'm sure we'll stay here again.

Mountain Lake House at Rocky Point
The view was spectacular.. Great cabin 10 out of 10.

Treehouse at water's edge
Maria was very nice the listing was beautiful

Melton Lakeside Abode. 4BR/3BA with boat dock
The house has recently been upgraded inside and is nice and fresh inside! The beds were very comfortable and the house spacious. I wish there was a better picture of the side/back of the house when you pull into the driveway as I was a bit unsure I was at the right house when we arrived. You don’t actually see the house until you walk to the left towards the tree line. The lake is a little bit of a walk and as the ad says there are a lot of steps. But the view once you get to the lake is very pretty and the patio down there looked fun. Had a great visit. Thanks for allowing us to stay!

Lakeside Paradise Escape/Jet Ski & Kayak Adventure
An amazing property in a beautiful and very convenient location! Spacious, clean, and modern house with comfortable, clean furniture and beds, an awesome secluded fire pit, a hot tub, and a movie room? It had it all! Highly recommended and worth the price. And the owners are responsive and kind!

Huge house near Nat’l park, king bed, Easy access
This is a lovely spacious home with everything you could possibly need. It is nestled in the woods and is quiet and peaceful. We had room for our family to spread out with lots of space to relax. We would love to come again!

Lake front with private dock & gorgeous views!
Beautiful, secluded location. Perfect ti get away from it all. Make sure you bring anything you need with you, the closest town is 25 min away. Great hiking nearby.

Hugh's cove with lake front
This location was everything the reviews indicated. The inside was clean and well kept and perfect for our family. The kayaks were the best part of the stay and the lake is beautiful. The outside does need some tlc to match the inside upgrades.
