Fantastic place for me and my family. The basement ceilings are low and might be a bit tricky for those over 6’ tall. Fortunately no of us are anywhere close to that height so it was perfect lol. The stay was fabulous. The hosts were tremendous. Definitely worth the stay!!

Great home base for fishing
My family stayed at the house for a birthday fishing trip. TVA was generating a 1500cfs sluice so wade fishing was a no-go but fortunately we own a drift boat and fished four days. The house is on the river between Hunter bridge and 19 bridge in a good section of river - would be a great spot to wade if flows allow. The house itself is in a perfect location on the middle of the river and close to town. Provides close access to many stretches of the river and a quick 25 minutes to the SoHo. Would definitely stay again!

Nice family stay
Good for a large family. Quick access to lots of activities. River was beautiful and loved sitting on all the porches. Beds were pretty comfy and the kitchen was well stocked. Our only complaint is that the temperature was really hard to control. The basement was freezing and the main level was hot.

A Frigid Tennessee Christmas
From start to finish Gina was a great help to work with. They are remodeling the kitchen and let us know that the floor had just been replaced and the cabinets were being updated. The house was very clean and festively decorated for Christmas (inside and out)! Our family had a great time and would love to come back when we can enjoy the outdoor amenities. Thanks for everything!

The Perfect River House
We booked the house for a family reunion. We fit the family quite nicely. We especially enjoyed witting on the deck by the river, chatting, and enjoying the outdoors. It was safe for the kids. We loved that there were games provided that we could play. We set up the badminton set, played ping pong, fished and made a fire. The whole family was entertained and quite happy. We loved how there was plenty of kitchen supplies to cook whatever we desired with ease. Only bad things were that the basement was extremely cold. But we found a container with blankets and had everyone bundle up. Also, the poison oak needs destroyed on the steps down to the river - it was avoidable, though.

Wonderful Family Vacation
Everything was perfect except the fishing part. Was not clear before payment that the river was not for regular fishing. The only fishing you could do is fly fishing in the middle of river or on a boat. The river never stopped flowing fast. After payment we received a email of a phone number to check the times the dam closed and it never did. We tried fishing anyway and lost so many lures, weights, and bait. Other then that, the home came with everything we needed. We would definitely rent again. Thank you

Home Away From Home!
From the moment the front door opened, I felt ‘at home’! Spacious, comfortable, and plenty of things offered, within, to occupy all ages! Games, books, toys, smart TV (too be used with personal subscriptions), Dish TV, magazines, large dining room table, for family gatherings, ping pong and pool table. Outside is serene and beautiful! Would love to return if and when we are in the area. The only issue we had that were unable to resolve was the basement’s temperature (freezing, compared to warmer upstairs). Very small price for the many cherished memories that have been made!!

We were pleased
Overall nice home. Good location. Excellent communication with owner and local representative. But a bit tight for more than 6-7 people. We were nine one night and the other two nights 8. Without looking back at the website, believe home is advertised as holding 10. That would be inconvenient as it would require putting down large inflatable mattresses in common areas. But overall it was a nice stay. Thanks to the owner and local rep. Good job.
