Graduation celebration
The house was perfect, had enough space and beds. The house could use a couple of kitchen towels. We will definitely use this rental again. It was very enjoyable

Wanted a nice family getaway. We got it with this house. Absolutely beautiful!
The owner was very quick to respond an messaging and answered any and all questions I had. It was an easy check in. The house has games inside the closet for the whole family. Just an awesome place to stay. Would definitely recommend.

We've stayed at this property twice, and will again!
great property, plenty of parking for the boat trailer, quiet cove to float, kayak, paddle board, etc. 10-15 minute idle out to the main channel depending on your "no wake" speed. That might seem like a lot but my boat enjoyed the gentle warm up and cool down. There is a gentle slope to the dock so it's an easy walk. The dock is very nice with overhangs so even the boats on the outside are under cover. It's a plastic or resin deck, so no splinters. There were bumpers already hanging on the metal poles to keep your boat from getting dinged up. One thing I would change is adding about 10 ft to the gangway to the dock. The lake was dropping while we were there (about a foot every-other-day), and by the last day there were some rocks and mud to drag the cooler over to get to the dock. We were there there 3 years ago with the lake full, and did not notice, so it likely doesn't make a difference most of the time. (dock was adjusted while we were there, so plenty of water stayed under the boat, even with the 3 ft drop during our stay.) The House is very well kept, even the grill was clean. The owner pays a lot of attention to detail, to the extent of spare remote control batteries in the TV stand drawer. Nice fire pit with wood stacked & ready. Take some fire starters to make it easy. There is a nice grocery store in Maynardville only a10 minute drive, so you don't need to pack everything with you from home or "hit the store" on the way in. On the water, it is extremely close to beach island (a few minutes once out of the cove) and a half hour (25mph) or so to Jimmy's (Norris Landing Marina) if you're not cooking.
