The view from this beautiful home was so beautiful every afternoon and morning. It rained a few days during our stay but the amount of fun this house had made up for those rainy days. There’s plenty near by shops and scenic views. There was a few nights deer came into the yard and we even got to watch chipmunk play around the pond in the yard. This stay for us was everything we wanted!
The view from this property was absolutely amazing! Large porch to enjoy the view as well as a fire pit to sit around and enjoy the evening. Kitchen has everything you need to prepare a meal, grill, prepare drinks, etc. Lots of room for 5 adults to be comfortable and have their own areas.House was located right on Tennessee border and Georgia so could hike in 3 states without driving far. Would highly recommend!
This was a great overall stay - the house was spacious, secluded, in a safe area, easy to find and get to, etc. The house itself was modern, yet rustic at the same time. There was only 3 of us, but this place could have slept 10 comfortably. The view from the main floor's deck was amazing. I think that we took 100 pics from there! The kitchen has everything you need as well. We will look to book again and stay longer next time. Thank you!

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
My stay was unfortunately disappointing due to an unresolved issue and lack of responsiveness. After noticing a foul smell coming from the water the night we arrived, we called the number in hand several times with no answer. It took several phone calls with no answer before I finally received a text response when I left a voice message. The person who texted stated they would reach out to the owner and association. The issue was never addressed. There was a mention of this same issue in the guestbook, seems we were not the only ones who encountered this but problem has not been addressed. There are no online reviews mentioning this at all.We also found dirty towels mixed with what was supposed to be fresh and clean from the linen closet as well as several piles of dirty comforters and blankets in different closets around the house. This raised concerns about overall cleanliness and attention to detail. The water odor persisted throughout my stay, and no follow-up or resolution was provided.Overall, the lack of communication, delayed response, and cleanliness issues made for a frustrating experience never encountered when we come up North. I hope improvements are made so future guests don’t encounter the same problems.
