The views were amazing off the back porch, especially in the Fall. The house had plenty of bedrooms to accommodate a large group, but it was quite dirty (dead and live bugs in many rooms, thick layers of dust), some rooms don't have working fans, and there is no cell phone service at all. It certainly felt more like camping than staying in a lake house, as we were encouraged to throw away used toilet paper (as opposed to flushing) and there were timers on the showers.
Additionally, there were several issues with the host. I called/emailed several times to ask a question prior to the visit but received no response. When we got there, we realized the hot tub was broken, which the host was apparently aware of but hadn't told us. When we asked the host how we could fix it, she told us to Google it. This did not resolve the issue and we could not use that amenity. To her credit, she was nice to our dogs.
Overall, we had a good time, but I would bet there are nicer places to stay in the area.

Hi Lauren, we want our guests to rest easy when they stay with us, and we apologize you experienced some issues during your trip.
We are in a remote location but we do have phone service. We're sorry about the ladybugs. We answered all your calls except for one while we were at dinner and we called you back as soon as we could.
We apologize we understood the hot tub was dirty not broken and it was working for our last guests, we did offer to come look at it.
We are confident that future guests will have excellent stays! We continue to strive for the 5-star experiences we are known for.
the house easily accomodated our diverse crew from the toddlers all the way up to the grandparents. Check in was smooth and the house was just as described - fun to sit out on the porch and watch the barges roll by.

Property was in the perfect setting, right on the river! Had everything for our group to come and go for the weekend while attending a regatta. Floors and carpets were a bit dirty like it was not vacuumed in sometime. Everything else was wonderful!

We had an incredible stay at this charming house that felt straight out of a '90s movie! It was the perfect fit for our three families, with plenty of space for the kids to enjoy the outdoors. From sun up to sun down, they fished and played outside, making the most of the beautiful setting. The living room was ideal for cozy family nights, and the large modern kitchen was a dream for preparing meals together. The owner was precious and made everything super clear and easy. We highly recommend this spot and will definitely rebook if we’re ever back in Chattanooga!
