Hosts were responsive and inviting. Luckily I read the reviews and brought a wagon to carry belongings from parking to the houseboat. It’s a haul. Kept my 12 year old twin granddaughters busy with hiking, biking, shopping, turtle hunting, dinner cruise, relaxing and of course a day at Dollywood (1 hour drive). Great walkable location. River is too dirty to swim in though. Had a great time.

What a cool location! The house boat was great, the vibe on the dock was mellow and fun. We only stayed one night but I would def book again if we’re in the area. We walked to dinner and had a lovely morning sunrise on the dock. Our kids loved the experience. Beds were comfortable and I loved the books in the space.

Communication was the best, The boat was comfy, well outfitted, and the location was relaxing and scenic.
6 / 10Average·Apr 2026
Had we known it was a 10-15 minute walk, one way to the boat, we would have looked elsewhere. It was very inconvenient to take a dog to a patch of grass. Other than that we were happy with how quiet it was.
