Totally wonderful.
Beautiful property. Spacious bedrooms. Fully stocked kitchen. Plenty of outdoor seating areas - covered and uncovered. We enjoyed having meals outdoors on the deck, a fire in the firepit and relaxing in the living room. A great place for our group of 3 couples.

This lake house was very clean and had so much to offer. We will definitely be staying again. The kitchen had the essentials for cooking our meals. There is towels for the lake which was nice so you don't have to pack extras. Highly recommend this place!!

The first 5 days were great. The advance rains from Hurricane Helene started Monday and progressed through the week. We had to change plans daily and we were all but cabin-bound by mid-week. I purchased a trip insurance policy through the company you recommended and filed a claim. It has been 8 days and I have not had any response, other than claim submitted. There is no contact info or person to call. Very disappointing.

Hi William, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the first part of your stay, but we’re sorry that the remainder of your trip was impacted by Hurricane Helene. The homeowner wanted to provide some additional context:
- We remained in regular contact with you throughout the storm, ensuring that you were safe and informed about conditions at the property, including power and water outages.
- Unfortunately, severe weather can be unpredictable, and we understand how challenging it can be to have plans disrupted. We appreciate your patience during this time and regret any inconvenience caused by these unforeseen circumstances.
- As for your trip insurance claim, we recommend following up directly with the insurance provider. The homeowner encourages you to reach out to the company for a status update, and they are available to assist with any information needed to support your claim. Additionally, we have since followed up with Evolve and authorized a refund for the two nights not stayed as a gesture of goodwill.
We appreciate your understanding in the face of such an unusual weather event. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope you’ll consider staying with us again under more favorable conditions. Safe travels!
My family and I stayed for 3 nights while attending my nieces wedding. The house was clean and the kitchen well stocked with anything we needed during our stay. We really enjoyed the lake views and the kids had a great time with the kayaks on the lake.
Getting around was a little stressful as we didn’t have good cell service and basically no navigation. Other than that it’s a great house in a beautiful location and I would definitely stay there again next time we visit East TN.
