The view was amazing! Based on previous reviews, we hoped we might see some deer on the lawn; we were not disappointed, for deer graced the lawn every day at dawn and dusk. The place was extremely clean and comfortable. Please be aware that the advertisement about there being a Mr. Coffee in the kitchen isn't true. We packed ground coffee and filters only to find out it was a Keurig. Also, one of the mattresses downstairs was sunken in badly and couldn't be used at all. There were a dozen of us, but the kitchen table only held six. We had to eat separately, using the deck and kitchen during meals. It might be nice to have a bigger table for larger families and maybe put a brighter light above it. Despite the minor glitches, I would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation.

Great stay once again, back to back labor days at this beautiful lake view home! Thank you John

Four families came from three different states to celebrate Thanksgiving. This was a great house! Beautiful view of Norris Lake. Plenty of room. Quiet and peaceful this time of year. We had a great time!

Great neighborhood and great communication. The family had a great time.

We had a wonderful stay. They house was beautiful with a great view of the lake. The host John provided all of the details we needed and quickly responded to any questions we had. The kitchen was stocked with many of the amenities that we needed . The rooms were spacious and comfortably housed my family of 10. I would say be sure to follow the signs for the resort closely the GPS wasn't always correct in that area. Overall we loved our stay and will return again.

This house has potential to be great, however the cleanliness and communication with the host made for this poor review. I had to contact the host in order to get check in instructions a day before we were to check in. The host did get back in a good time frame with the instructions but a day before? The house layout and rooms were nice. We had a group of 12 which included teenagers and everyone was comfortable in the house. However, we quickly were able to see the cleaning of the house was not very good. One of the mattresses on the bunk beds had a large stain on it, the house was filled with dust and cobwebs, the filter for the house had dust on it, the carpeting still had food under the kitchen table and the kitchen chairs had stains and the table was sticky. They had no cleaning items on premise to clean any items. If you have allergies, be careful They had very little directions as to the area or what the home consisted of. Usually in previous VRBO stays, the homeowner would have a "welcome packet" with information on local information and anything else to make your stay comfortable. We stayed in December which is the "off season" and a lot of places were either closed or had different hours due to this. It would have been nice to know this ahead of time. The fireplace in the home also did not work. I contacted the host numerous times during the stay and messaging thru the VRBO website did not get a response. I had to text the host directly and even then the response was delayed for hours or a day. I understand it was between Christmas and New Years, but a host should still be in contact with there customer. I contacted the host in regards to a refund for the cleaning fee as the stay for the home was a large amount of money. The host responded the same day advising they were "waiting on the report from the cleaning crew". That was the last I would hear from the host after numerous messages. I contacted VRBO in which they reached out to the host who advised I would be getting a refund on the cleaning fee. Well, its over two weeks and still no communication from the host and no refund. The home has potential as it is large and spacious. It had a lot of board games, pool table, foosball, and bags. Again, the rooms were great and plenty of refrigerator space. It was very unfortunate that the host could not communicate to solve a majority of these problems. and just completely ignored there customer as well as VRBO themselves.
