South Holston Retreat

A family lakehouse for the past 25 years, recently open to the public! Approximately 5 acres situated on the secluded South Holston Lake in East Tennessee. This property includes approximately 300 ft of lake frontage. One of three of the best, local man made TVA lakes. South Holston is by far the prettiest and cleanest lake in East Tennessee. South Holston Mountain is one of the highest vantage points within the East Tennessee Mountains. The American Bald Eagle and Osprey birds are here almost all year. Activities include hiking, biking, swimming, kayaking, and canoeing. Also, one of the most premier trout fishing is below the dam in South Holston Tailwaters. People from all over come to see the size of these Rainbow and Brown Trout. This lakehouse is located at Friendship Resort and Marina. Lake access is year round! The lake drains down in the winter and has a full pond in the summer. Access the lake from the stairs that lead into paradise, or ask for UTV Access!

Beautiful views but has issues
Host was very responsive to emails. Host also provided kayaks and canoes along with life vests option which was really nice. He was also kind enough to give us the option to use the atv to get down the super steep grade to the lake we didn’t use it but it was a nice option House was very large with nice bedrooms, twin decks. The issues: 1. You need to have a lock box or something to get access to the building. Not “the garage door opener is beside the door on a piece of wood”. Luckily. I got there before my wife and kids. 2. 4 bathrooms but if your a man taller than 5’7 you cannot use the toilet. Who puts toilets under a dormer ? 3. Water pressure was horrible! Literally if you turned the water on anywhere and you were taking a shower it would completely stop- literally! It took almost 3 minutes just to fill a gallon jug of water. Bathroom with tub upstairs would not give any water ever. 4. Upstairs bedroom you couldn’t close door and if you pushed hard they would be stuck in the room. My youngest daughter got stuck in the room multiple times and called me to come let her out. 5. Really needs to be cleaned professionally. Lots of grease on counters. Floors looked like somebody just ran a swiffer across it and called it a day. We found items left in multiile beds(hair clips, brushes). I’ve stayed in hunters cabins and been found but this was a little much. 6. Neighborhood is run dow- condemned buildi This house has amazing potential and gorgeous views

Great location, clean everything works fine. Just like being at home.Quite a hike down to the lake,.
Great property, you should be in good health before walking to the beautiful lake. Steep walk back up the hill

Family stay
We absolutely loved our stay at the Lakehouse, the open concept to the family room allowed us to spend time together inside and on the porch. The entire family had a blast fishing and swimming. Eric was responsive and so welcoming. Plenty of towels for everyone, plenty of fridge space between the kitchen and garage,washer and dryer available to wash as you go.Thank you so much for the great visit.
