Great getaway
Warm and very comfortable with plenty of space for multiple people and still have privacy. The screened in porch is perfect to sit and watch the water and the wildlife. Great small touches around the house to help you feel at home. Bryan was great to communicate with and clear on all instructions. The location is removed enough from Nashville center, but plenty of nice local spots within a short drive. Tons of fun games provided if you never want to go out!

Great place for family vacations
This place is nestled in a quiet neighborhood which is great to get away from the noise of downtown Nashville. Host was great. Wish there was AC in the garage to enjoy the pool table more. Dock was nice to fish off of but the water was also really shallow but enough places close enough to get water access. Hot tub was very clean. Big yard to play in. Found a few screws in the driveway but could possibly be due to construction at the adjacent property. Overall, would highly recommend staying here.

Awesome Vacation Home!!!
If you have a big group and you are looking to get away but still have the convenience of every day life within 10 minutes, you found the right place.
Spacious. Lovely deck. Hot tub. Right on the water. Wildlife. Nashville within 30 minutes. Golf courses within 10. Boat rental 5 minutes as well as a boat launch. Your own personal dock. The host actually came out and blew up a raft for us during the trip.
Wonderful place for a family or a bachelor/bachelorette party or a golf trip.
Do yourself a favor and pick this place and enjoy!!!

Family vacation
We stayed at the lakehouse for 7 nights. There was 6 adults and 2 pre teens. There was plenty of room for us all . The house was very clean and fully equiped. It was in a great location. It only took us minutes to get anywhere we needed and just a short drive to Nashville. The owner was just a call or text away and always was available for questions about the area. We are already planning our next visit to the Lakehouse!!

Just a bunch of old college friends reuniting over meals, boats, paddles and wine. The house was comfortable and clean. There were a couple of minor snafus, like the hot tub not working and we were without running water for a few hours when we arrived. Bryan did his best to fix the hot tub and brought us cases of water to help with the inconvenience. All in all I would book again!

My three friends and I loved our stay! The house was clean and well-cared for. The hot tub and firepit were so nice and easy to use. We loved the screened in porch overlooking the lake, too. It was also an easy drive into Nashville and to the other areas we planned to visit. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful surroundings and great family time!
The house was so nice—beautiful views on the water. Lots of activities (canoe, pool table, fire pit, hot tub, cornhole, etc) but also plenty of yard space to sit and relax and visit and make your own fun. The sunroom was our favorite place to play cards and visit and drink coffee.
The host had tried to think of everything we could have wanted! Would love to be able to go back soon.
For us, with a one year old grandson, it was especially nice to have access to baby equipment and even some books and toys.

Perfect for a small family reunion.
We chose this house to stay in while visiting our family in TN. It was perfectly situated not more than three miles from their house. We loved how cozy the house was. Perfect for spending time together. We have no complaints. As a suggestion, it would be helpful to have a new/larger water heater to accommodate larger families. We hope to return to this same house for another family visit in 2024!

Perfect Family Gathering
Three generations met at this property near Nashville (we went to Opry Mills Mall, Nashville Zoo & Edley’s Barbecue and the longest trip was about 40 minutes). The house was big, really well supplied and was exactly what we needed to reconnect with a son who lives in Knoxville and our college-age son during spring break. We had no issues at all, used the waffle maker, played games, made a couple of fires and loved bird-watching all day! Nice beds, plenty of linens, easy parking. It was cold and we’re not boaters, but the boat ramp and fishing platforms were only 5 minutes down the road. A really great value and lovely trip.

The view at the lake is gorgeous ... the property is away from the busy streets and is quiet and tranquil.
It was great having everything we needed to come "home" for a quiet evening... morning coffee... dinner... etc.
We enjoyed evening laughter at the pool table and created many memories.

Property was as advertised and featured the amenities of home. The larger common area, and screeded in porch, enabled us to dine and socialize comfortably for hours at a time.
While this was a work trip, being in a nature type setting with a nice gas grill, we also had great outdoor social times in the early morning and evening hours.
Loved the stay and definitely would stay again.
