Perfect Home for the Family
Great secluded and quite location. Koy pond-Kids loved it, and they discovered some wild blueberry bushes. Fire Pit - Fires every night with smores. Rocking chairs to sit and just watch the views of the smoky mountains, games room for the kids, kept them occupied for hours. Comfy beds, great set up for families. Fantastic 4th of July show from the Deck as well. Overall great location (easy access to town), but still super private

Amazing property!
We rented this property to celebrate my son's birthday with a group of 20, aged 18-74. Everyone raved about the house! We found everything to be clean and in good working order. There are 2 refrigerators which is a must in a home that accommodates this large of a group. The kitchen ice maker is quite slow, but we did notice the last day there is a countertop unit stored in the pantry. The kitchen is well equipped, and also has double ovens. There is a regular and pod style coffee machine with a nice selection of pods provided. The teens and early 20 somethings loved the game room and spent most of their time down there. The hearth room (which boasts the best gas fireplace we've ever seen) was enjoyed by the adults. There are multiple Dyson units throughout the home to provide additional heating and cooling if needed. We very much appreciated the extra heat in the master bathroom! There were plenty of bath towels, which we rarely find to be the case. This was fantastic as no one wants to do laundry on a weekend getaway! Something to note is the queen bedroom is rather small and on the basement level. We had the teens in the adjacent bunk room with adults in the queen, so they had to endure the late night noise from the youngsters. Unfortunately the weather prevented us from using the outdoor areas except for the last day. My son and his friends loved the chipping green! If you play golf, be sure to bring clubs. It is an amazing home & our favorite rental thus far! Excellent
