Other Things to Note:

Before You Arrive

We want your arrival to be as easy and seamless as possible. After booking, you’ll receive a short Rental Agreement from our local management team to review and sign electronically before your stay. This quick step helps us make sure everything is in place for your arrival while protecting you, the home, and the homeowners who make your stay possible.



Douglas Lake is a TVA-managed reservoir, so water levels change throughout the year. Summer typically offers the best conditions for swimming, with the lake near full pool. Water levels are generally lowered during the fall and winter months and begin rising again in the spring with rainfall and runoff. For the most current lake information, visit TVA Lake Levels – Douglas Reservoir.



Best Times for Swimming:

☀️ May: Cooler water with fewer crowds

☀️ June – August: Prime swimming season with warm water and ideal conditions

☀️ September: Warm water and lighter crowds

☀️ October: Cooler temperatures with pleasant days for outdoor activities



Swimming Safety Tips:

• Swim in designated swimming areas when possible

• Be aware of boats and jet skis on the water

• Use life jackets for children

• Avoid swimming near boat ramps and marinas

• Never dive into unfamiliar water

• Check weather conditions before heading out



For the most accurate and up-to-date lake level information, we recommend checking the TVA website directly. Recent lower-than-average rainfall and drought conditions in the area have resulted in reduced runoff and may impact current lake conditions.
