Lake Living 3 - 10 Feet from the lake :)

CrystalRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

If I could give this stay 20 stars I would! What a phenomenal experience. Michael & Hilda’s home is absolutely stunning. Their family and friends we met while being there were so welcoming and friendly. The love they all have for making sure their guest are happy, goes unnoticed. They made us feel like their place was ours. I can’t wait to come back or to another one of their beautiful properties! Thank you just isn’t enough.

River Front Condo Outdoor Dreams!!

ToryRating, 5 stars3 months ago

My fiancé and I came to visit the area because we were attending a dance competition for his daughters. The area is very beautiful. Mr. Gary was very kind and responsive. The weekend we attended had severe weather that came out of nowhere. We were sight seeing and he alerted us on what was going to happen and how to prepare for safety. Thank you Mr. Gary for the incredible service and hospitality.

Beautiful, quiet entire Lake House

CindyRating, 5 stars8 months ago

It was everything a lake house should be. We relaxed, saw lots of wildlife and it was convenient to Chattanooga. Beds were very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. I appreciate that it was stocked with paper products, dishwasher pods, laundry detergent and so forth so that we didn’t have to purchase every little thing and could just enjoy ourselves.

Lake House - with dock

MaribethRating, 5 stars6 months ago

This was my first Airbnb experience. I'm not sure how to judge/compare the pricing. I believe it was priced more reasonable than a hotel with many more amenities. Thanksgiving weekend with family. Wasn't looking for outside activities. There were day trips and lots of walks. Home was warm and comfortable. Kitchen provided most everything I needed. Appliances in good working order. Theresa was gracious, a good communicator, flexible and accommodating.

The house was perfect for my daughter’s spring wedding in the Tennessee mountains. There was enough bedrooms but would like more closets or some place to hang clothes. It was nice to have a lovely deck with a great view.
