"10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY VOW RENEWAL WITHE 28 GUESTS - VERY CLEAN BEAUTIFULLY MAINTAINED HOME" "We loved everything about this rental. The location was beyond perfect. You are close to the major attractions but still have privacy and can break away from all the noise. The house was huge and all the rooms were well furnished and even with having multiple families stay at the home we never felt like we were on top of each other. The house was clean and had everything we needed plus high chairs for our younger kids in the group. The movie room was amazing. All the guests raved about their rooms and beds. There are two large refrigerators so you do not have to worry about not having enough storage for your large group. The owners really thought of everything to make their guests comfortable and their rental time enjoyable. We got locked out and the owners and property manager were so quick to respond. Even prior to your arrival the owners send you an information about the home, attractions near the home and how to use things within the home. Extremely thoughtful. We will definitely be renting this property again in the future."

Robin H, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 2023

"GREAT VACATION HOME!" "If you are planning a trip to Douglas Lake, it doesn't get any better than the Tennessee Lake House. The communication with the owner was wonderful and he personally called to answer all my questions prior to our visit. We were a large group of friends & family visiting the area after a wedding in Pigeon Forge and this house fit us perfectly. The house was very comfortable and extremely clean. All of the bedrooms are very spacious and the beds were very comfy. We especially enjoyed relaxing out on the porches and Lakeside Deck. The view from the deck was amazing. The kids loved the community pool and playground. It was a great week...thank you for a five-star vacation!"

Jonathan T, Oklahoma, USA Aug 2023

"COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR BETTER ACCOMMODATION!" "Couldn’t have asked for better accommodations for a large family vacation. Beautiful views and great access to lake Douglas. There were 20 kids enjoyed the multiple bunk rooms and all the adults had their private rooms. While there are many great attractions near by we never left the house, just enjoyed our time together on the lake. Arthur was a joy to deal with!"

Jon T, Texas, USA Jul 2023

"A GREAT TIME!" "My family and I had a great time together at your Lake House. First time we were all able to stay under 1 roof. My oldest brother is battling cancer and the timing of the trip couldn’t have been better. We definitely needed that time together! Thanks again and I did also leave a review on Trip Advisor."

Reba H, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 2023

"A GREAT STAY!" "We had a great stay there was ample room for all of us. It was off the beaten path yet close enough for shopping. My brothers, cousins, and aunts would highly recommend staying here. The dock was terrific for my husband and his boat. Thank you for letting us use your home."

Leo FR, New Hampshire, USA Jun 2023

"JUST MARVELOUS!" "The Lake House was just marvelous, there was enough room for everyone. The view was excellent, I enjoyed the porch the best it overlooks part of the lake and was very peaceful and quiet. We had a marvelous week it was sunny all week and, in the 80's. The game room was used a lot by everyone as well as the theater room."

Jennifer K, Virginia, USA Jun 2023

"PERFECT FAMILY CELEBRATION!" "The house was perfect for out huge family of 14 and separated so that our kids could have rooms near us but private. The kids could fish off the dock and the roads to Pigeon Forge kept us off the main drag and out of traffic. Our 5 days went fast. Not only were we able to get in a few hours early but we were met and shown how to use everything. It was Father’s Day and it allowed us to cook a nice meal for the dads."

Doug R, Florida, USA Apr 2023

"WILL DEFINITELY VISIT AGAIN!" "Great property."

Mark C, North Carolina, USA Jan 2023

"AWESOME & PERFECT - ALREADY BOOKED THIS PROPERTY FOR 2024!" "We used this property for our 2023 Men’s Retreat and this property was exactly what we needed. There was plenty of space for us all. The property is clean and well maintained. We had awesome customer service in dealing with the owners David and Arthur. We have already booked this property for our 2024 Retreat and look forward to going back. Love this home and the location was perfect."

Rob L, Florida, USA Dec 2022

"Amazing Christmas!" "It is always a pleasure to stay at your place. It was an amazing Christmas for us. Thank you."

Ahlam K, Louisiana, USA Nov 2022

"WILL DEFINITELY BOOK AGAIN!" The house is beautiful. The layout of the house was strange where there’s rooms within a room, we loved it, it was pretty cool. It had plenty of beds to go around. We were a huge family and there was space and a bed for everyone! The only thing I would note is the lake was drained halfway down, I guess it’s something the city does this time of year. Aside from that, everything went well. The owners were wonderful and personally called beforehand with instructions on checking in. Customer service from the owners exceeded my expectations. I’ve never had a rental owner speak to me personally and it was a nice personal touch to this experience. I would definitely book this house again in the future!"

Alethia S, Texas, USA Nov 2022

GREAT EXPERIENCE!" "Beautiful property! Serene setting. 22 of my family members met up here the week before Thanksgiving for a Family Gathering . There was something in the house for everyone to enjoy. The kitchen was well equipped for us to prepare meals . Some enjoyed going fishing, playing pool, enjoying the theater room and the hot tub. They even provided high chairs for the babies. My family loved it and so did I. The property managers were very helpful and responded immediately to solve a minor issue. The thermostat was set on fan instead of heat when we arrived. Problem solved in less than five seconds. Lol I highly recommend this property and look forward to visiting again sometime in the future. My family and I give it 5 thumbs up👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 on a 5 scale radius."

Alexis L, Florida, USA Oct 2022

"JUST PERFECT - 3RD WEDDING ANNIVERSARY!" "I booked this lake house to spend a couple of days and celebrate our 3rd anniversary with my wife and daughter. The booking process with David was pretty easy and he took really good care of us! Inside and outside of the house was great, great view and the house overall was just PERFECT! We are a small family but the house can definitely fit more than 20 people. The cleaning was great and the property privacy was awesome. Definitely recommend you to book this lake house, you will have so much fun! We will definitely book again!"

Keya A, Washington, USA Oct 2022

"ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!" "I wanted to wait until I had the time to write a thorough review. From the moment that I booked this property until today (2 days after checkout) the hosts have been nothing short of amazing. The property was awesome! There were a few very minor things that I pointed out and Steve, the property manager, jumped right on it. It was 15 women in the house and we actually had beds that were unoccupied. There was more than enough space within the home that we did not feel cramped in any way. Our favorite gathering spots were the kitchen, the hot tub and down by the lake. We hiked through the neighborhood and felt so refreshed and welcomed. I will DEFINITELY book again in the future. I even had a few women that attended with me, that now want to book the property on their own. This, by far, has been one of the greatest experiences I've had with a vacation rental. I've been renting two to three times per year for the past 5 years doing these Retreats and this has been my greatest experience. Arthur is a gem and Steve, my army veteran brother, was so accommodating and willing to make sure we were most comfortable. We all slept like babies every night. The beds are HUGE and extremely comfortable!! 1,000 stars from me and all of the ladies. Thank you David, Arthur and Steve!"

Abby W, West Virginia, USA Oct 2022

"A BEAUTIFUL WEDDING!" "Arthur was a dream to work with and his house was absolutely beautiful! We had a beautiful wedding here."

Christy H, Illinois, USA Sep 2022

"INCREDIBLE PROPERTY FOR ABSOLUTELY BEST WEDDING WEEKEND!" "Where do I even start with this incredible property? Gosh, it was a dream staying here! My *now* husband and I booked this beautiful home to get married here and spend the weekend with friends and family. It was everything we could have even imagined and more! To start, Arthur was amazing to work with. He was always kind, responsive, and just the best when it came to accommodating all our needs and wants. His home is even more beautiful in person! The rooms are huge, the house is so cozy, and so much space to entertain and comfortably sleep everyone. We had 30 people sleeping here and even more spending time here! The views are breathtaking and the location is perfect! When it came to arrival, Steve met us at the home and showed us around. We were blown away! Steve is hands down the best property manager. He even dropped what he was doing to bring us a few things we needed on our wedding day. We feel like we left with a new friend in Steve and Arthur both! On Thursday, we spent the night grilling, playing pool, and enjoying a bonfire down by the dock. Friday, we all went hiking and spent the day in Gatlinburg which is only 30 minutes away. We had a taco bar catered to the house and had a “taco bout love” theme! Saturday, the men found an awesome golf course and us ladies got ready, had breakfast catered and set up the wedding ceremony in the front drive way. It was breathtakingly gorgeous with the trees and all of the nature around. Words don’t do justice! There’s so many photo ops. We even got pics in the lake since the water was down! The worst part of the weekend was having to leave! We will 100000% be back! Thank you Arthur and Steve for letting us stay at your home. It was the absolute best wedding weekend we could have ever imagined!"

Kaitlin A, New York, USA Sep 2022

"JUST BOOKED OUR THIRD TRIP FOR NEXT YEAR!" "This house is great for large groups. We had 24 adults and yet it still felt private. The location is perfect, and we absolutely love the lake. We were able to dock our boat overnight and the boat ramp is just down the street from the home. The owners and property managers are great to work with and very responsive and helpful. We have stayed here twice already the past two years, and just booked our third trip for next year. It’s quickly become our groups favorite summer tradition!"

Gail G, Indiana, USA Jul 2022

"SPECTACULAR - CLEANEST EVER RENTAL!" "The lake and the house's location is spectacular! Quiet, peaceful, and super clean. It was so easy to pull skiers and tubers, and teach the young ones to ski in such quiet water. The marina is a long way from the house - so getting gas for the boat was a bit trickier. The house was the cleanest we have ever stayed in for a rental. We all so appreciated that! The kitchen was extremely clean, well equipped, and open enough for our large group to manage meals in. Due to the size of our family, we prepared all of our meals there. There is plenty of room for all the kids to spread out, or to gather for game nights. The theatre room is amazing. We had a wonderful time, Thanks so very much for your efforts in providing this house for rent!"

Kim, N, Georgia, USA Jul 2022

"BEAUTIFUL PROPERTY - WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!" "We had a family reunion. Adults and children of all ages from 2 months to 80. Plenty of room and then some. Gorgeous property and beautiful lake. Communication was excellent from the booking through checkout. Would definitely recommend and will likely be returning. 18 adults were there and everyone raved about it."

Lilian M, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 2022

"ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL & GREAT FOR LARGE FAMILIES!" "The property is a gem! It’s scenic, quiet, offers a lot of privacy and has beautiful views of the lake. The house is absolutely beautiful, clean and exquisitely decorated. And the rooms are so spacious! This home is great for large families. We went with our children and grandchildren (a total of 20 of us) and there was something to keep everyone happy – hot tub, theater room, pool table, quiet balcony for reading, a dock on the lake. We all spent some time swimming, floating or paddle boarding on the lake. The grandchildren spent a lot of time in the lake! Our hosts were on top of their game - courteous and responsive to any questions or needs that we had. I highly recommend this house for a family vacation!"

Joshua K, Florida, USA Jun 2022

"GETS BETTER EVERY TIME!" "We come back every year and it gets better every time! David has made many upgrades to the house, and I couldn't imagine spending family vacation anywhere else. We look forward to our stay every year and we are already itching to come back! The renovations have taken this stay to the next level, and we recommend this house to all of our family and friends. A 100% must book. Thank you again, David. You'll be seeing us next year."

Mark B, Illinois, USA May 2022

"OUR SECOND VISIT - SLICE OF HEAVEN WITH AMAZING UPGRADES!" "Finally made it home after a long day of travel. It was, once again, truly a pleasure being able to enjoy your slice of Heaven at the lake. The accommodations was fantastic, and the upgrades you made to the bathrooms and attic space were amazing! Again, thank you for opening up your space to my friends and family. We look forward to future stays."

Miriam M, Georgia, USA May 2022

"OUR SECOND VISIT - NOW CONSIDERING A THIRD!" "The whole house was a vibe. Everything went as planned and communication was excellent with host. Considering coming back again!"

Calandra J, Texas, USA Feb 2022

"WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!" "This is a beautiful spacious home for a fun filled get-a-way. The host was gracious and available if needed. I would definitely recommend this home. There aren’t enough stars to rate this property. Would I rent this property again; MOST DEFINITELY!"

Kaitlin A, New York, USA Feb 2022

"ABSOLUTELY LOVED OUR VISIT LAST YEAR - BOOKING A RETURN VISIT!" "Hello. My name is Kaitlin, we stayed in your lake house last Labor Day weekend, and we absolutely lived our trip. We were interested in booking again this summer. I see you do have one weekend with availability in August."

Kelly T, Georgia, USA Dec 2021

"PERFECT HOME!" "Our stay was amazing! This was the perfect home for my family, we had a great time! It was everything we needed for a home away from home for the holidays!"

Chad W, Florida, USA Dec 2021

"EVERYTHING WAS AS GOOD AS ADVERTISED!" "My family really enjoyed themselves and the host was great. Our stay was swell. The house was exactly as the listing."

Ashlee F, Ohio, USA Nov 2021

"AMAZING ACCOMODATION!" "My family and I, consisting of about 20 of us, stayed at this property for Thanksgiving. Our age ranges were from 2-70+ and to say it was great for all ages is an understatement! We spent most of our time in the home because it was just that cozy and fun! Kids/teens loved the movie room and adults loved conversing in the kitchen or by one of the many fireplaces. We also made use of the hot tub and firepit near the dock, there were just an array of activities we could plan right at the house which was perfect for our plans. Sleeping was mainly comfortable we were just disappointed to find out that the loft space with a set of bunkbeds was not prepared yet for use. We ended up having to put two of our guys on air mattresses, but I believe they are in the process of completing this addition which is another cool space for younger folks to enjoy. Since it was Thanksgiving we did quite a bit of cooking and the kitchen came equipped with most of the supplies we needed, as well as two refrigerators which was ideal, with plenty of space to also move around with several people coming in and out! We loved that even with such a huge house the kitchen was always a gathering place. The area that the house is situated in is very off the beaten path but we loved the privacy and serenity of it all. For next time, we will take into account that the lake is not at normal levels during the fall/winter season so we didn't get to do any lake activities (but it was also pretty cold during our stay anyway). We can't brag enough about how much fun we had and we attribute a lot of this to having a comfortable, clean and inviting home to make memories. The entire family that owns and operates this house will make sure you have what you need, their communication is impeccable from start to finish! Please don't hesitate just book it and see for yourself!!"

Danny J, Illinois, USA Oct 2021

"ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE PLACE!!!" "O my God Arthur & David, my wife, family, and friends ABSOLUTELY LOVED our stay!!  The sheer Ambience, the colors of the leaves on the trees, the lake, the peace and quiet, the LOUD noises of Nature.  That's just a small description of the outdoors- trying to describe it does no justice, you have to see this place in person to understand the Beauty of this estate.  The inside is just as Beautiful - PLENTY of space for large gatherings, entertaining guests will be VERY EASY to do because of the enormous rooms throughout this estate, from top to bottom there are so many wonderful things you can say about this estate.  You will not be disappointed in any way - trust me.  We will DEFINITELY come back!!!"

Anna M, North Carolina, USA Oct 2021

"PERFECT - A MAGNIFICENT HOME!" "We celebrated 2, 50th birthdays within our friend group at this beautiful home. We had 10 couples and we couldn't have picked a more perfect place. The home was beautiful and had everything we needed. Beautiful scenery, firepit overlooking the lake and much, much more. I look forward to staying at this magnificent home again in the future!"

Crystal H, Missouri, USA Oct 2021

"PEACEFUL AND SERENE!" "This property is beautiful. The Lake is Amazing with a stunning view. We even got a change to enjoy the hot tub. David, Arthur and Steve were all AWESOME! I would definitely recommend this house and book again in the future."

Mark B, Illinois, USA Sep 2021

"OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE!" "We had an absolutely outstanding time at this property. The owners David and Arthur had great communication throughout the process. Steve, the local property manager, was extremely communicative and very quick to respond. The home was completely as advertised and then some. Perfect for our party of 26, in town from all over country for a reunion. The privacy and seclusion of this property are amazing, and we had a blast renting boats from the local marina on Saturday. We brought the boats right up to the property. We really got a lot of use out of the pool table room, got tub, kitchen, theater room, and all of the bean bags throughout the property. 10/10 would recommend to anyone."

Joilyn S, Florida, USA Jun 2021

"HIGHLY RECOMMEND" “My family and I stayed at David's house for a family trip. Besides the beautiful and scenic location, the house and all it's amenities were amazing -- surround sound in multiple rooms, blue tooth hook-up in the game room, and a fantastic sound system in the theater room. The check-in process was effortless and David was UBER responsive to any need that we had, before and during the trip. Would highly recommend staying in this house as we will be next time we travel to Gatlinburg!”

Angela M, Georgia, USA May 2021

"DELIGHTFUL & ASTONISHING - THIS IS A STEAL - CHECK IT OUT!" "This property is very delightful and astonishing. We enjoyed waking up and sitting on the deck to the sounds of nature at it's finest. The peace and tranquility was to die for. This property is very beautiful and viewing the renovations that they have will make it that much more enjoyable. I would definitely come again and would recommend those who want an enjoyable peaceful stay to view the availability of this property 1st. Also, there are many amenities available to your family such as; boating, swimming and easy access to Dollywood. This is a steal, check it out!"

Dana M, Indiana, USA Mar 2021

"FANTASTIC BIRTHDAY WEEKEND!" "Had a great time with my friends for a girls birthday trip. Our stay was gorgeous serene. It was fantastic and memorable. I will definitely stay here again with no hesitation. Please rent out this home if you get a chance you won’t be dissatisfied."

D. Wright, North Carolina, USA Dec 2020

"DEFINITELY RECOMMEND! The Smoky Mountains Lake House that we stayed in for our family New Year’s Vacation was very nice. The house was very spacious and provided different areas for everyone to enjoy(game room, theater room, plenty guests rooms, balcony, lake). we had a great time! My family and I enjoyed the view the lake house provided and the house manager was very welcoming, provided a great tour and made sure we were aware of any info we may need. David the owner was very helpful no matter when we called him, he answered. We would definitely recommend this house to families."

"ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!" "The house was absolutely gorgeous and the location was fantastic. a relaxing and scenic location. Not to mention how many thangs there are to do in the area and the other surrounding towns during the holiday month. December was the perfect time to go and my family and I absolutely loved it. David and Courtney (the hosts) were always quick to respond and give great suggestions for things to do. There are tons of Christmas activities for all ages and it was even wonderful staying in the house for a relaxing day. I will 100% be back and look forward to it already. Thank you."

C Williams, Ohio, USA Nov 2020

"AWESOME!!!" "This place is awesome. Extremely clean and very spacious. David was very courteous and responded quickly to any questions I had."

Sarah M, Florida, USA Oct 2020

"AMAZING & WELL EQUIPPED!" "What an amazing large family house, situated on a lake with beautiful country surroundings. Fun for the whole family and large enough to accommodate multiple families. Extremely well equipped for cooking meals. The movie theater was fantastic and we watched movies every night, have to say the movie theater was very user friendly. The games room was also a hit with my teenagers. One of our favorite things to do was to sit in the large jacuzzi in the evening and watch the beautiful sunset. Would highly recommend this beautiful house to anyone. It's the perfect getaway, in an idyllic spot!!"

K Carter, Georgia, USA Oct 2020

"GREAT HOST!" David was a great host!! Responded whenever I called and even checked with me before we traveled! Our family really enjoyed ourselves!!!"

Thanks so much to Arthur, David and Diane!!!!!!!

Mike L, Tennessee, USA Aug 2020

"BEST WEEKEND GETAWAY EVER!" "Wonderful home and location.  Couldn't have asked for a better weekend getaway.!

Merrell S, Florida, USA Jul 2020

"DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE!" "The house was plenty big for our grown children and their families. We fell in love with the lake. It was the perfect temperature and didn’t have a mucky or grassy bottom. There are plenty of family activities to do within 45 minutes of the house. We rented a pontoon boat for the day which was a lot of fun for all. The kids loved the movie room and the men enjoyed the pool table. The hosts were responsive with all my questions. Lake life is the best, we didn’t want to leave!"

Maya B, Michigan, USA Jul 2020

"WILL NOT HESITATE TO BOOK AGAIN!" "Was more than accommodating. Replied very fast. Super friendly. My family and I will not hesitate to book again!"

"AWESOME!" "My wife's surprise party! Awesome weekend and everything was perfect.  Perfect house, location, weather and weekend!"

Heidi M, Illinois, USA Jul 2020

"GORGEOUS & SPACIOUS!" "The Lake House is gorgeous! It is quite spacious and set up perfectly for a large family or several families to stay together. The kitchen is large and reasonably well stocked for a rental. Bedding was comfortable - sheets and towels are not threadbare like other rentals, but lovely and fluffy! Plenty of seating for everyone, including portable chairs for the dock. The game room was a hit with the kids and the hot tub an extra bonus for the adults. But the lake... the lake is the main attraction! So many "lakehouses" (including in this development) are not actually on the lake... this one is! Just a short flight of steps down to the firepit and deck area and then right into the lake. Douglas Lake is gorgeous and relatively quiet, so our family could swim and float around the dock with no issues from boats. There is a dock in the community (a 5 minute drive) and a pool, which unfortunately was closed due to COVID19 restrictions. A few suggestions: bring your own beach towels and unbreakable cups for the lake (the cups in the house are large tumblers), don't forget your hairdryer (there was not one in the house), and bring all of your food & drink with you when you arrive as the closest grocery is quite a ways on windy roads. The best part of this rental is the owner, Arthur. He is a lovely British gentleman and made sure we had everything we needed. His son, David, made sure the house was ready and our lock codes were set. Two wonderful hosts! It was a wonderful vacation and we would love to return!"

Tawnya W, Indiana, USA Jul 2020

"BEAUTIFUL WITH PLENTY OF ROOM!" "Check-in was easy and David was just a text or call away for communication! House is beautiful! Plenty of room for our family! We rented a boat for the day and enjoyed the sun and fishing! The teens enjoyed the theater room! I personally did not turn a TV on the entire time we were there and just enjoyed hanging outside with the family. Home is located in private area and it was nice and quiet! Loved our stay and would recommend if you have a large family."

Allison H, Texas, USA Jul 2020

"ENORMOUS HOUSE!" "We had an amazing and memory filled vacation at David’s house. The house was enormous and fit our very large family well. Everything was very clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked. We spent most days floating right off the dock. The house is tucked back into a cove and there was minimal boat traffic (even on 4th of July weekend). We had kids from ages 13 to 1 and they all had a blast."

Sharon O, Florida, USA Jun 2020

"GORGOUSE WITH PLENTY OF ROOM!" "This house is gorgeous. There is plenty of room for everyone to have space for quiet rest and also gathering together. Everyone loved being on the lake and watching movies together in the evenings."

M. Messana, Georgia, USA Jun 2020

"JUST PERFECT!" "We had the best time! This house was just perfect. Gorgeous in every way. Every room was immaculate and super clean too. Tons of bedrooms for the 4 families and the kids space was just perfect! We had 8 adults and 8 children and had tons of room. The lake access was amazing. We spent most of our time at the water. We brought floats and paddle boards and enjoyed the private dock and private lake space. The water was perfect for swimming. We had kids ranging from 4 years old to 11 years old and had no issues. The fire pit at night was perfect for roasting marshmallows. We also loved the theatre room for movies and hanging out in the evenings. David the host was so wonderful and responsive to any questions. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. It was like a private lake front oasis. We only wished we would have booked more days! We highly recommend and cannot wait to come back."

Danielle J, Louisiana, USA Jun 2020

"PERFECT FOR OUR WEDDING!" "We chose this house to have our wedding at. The deck overlooking Lake Douglas could not have been a more perfect backdrop. The house was super spacious and we were able to have all of our guests stay with us on the property. With 25 people inside it never felt crowded. The owner is very easy to work with and super responsive. The house and property were beautiful and being on your own little peninsula was very private. I would highly recommend staying here. You will not be disappointed."

Glynn D, Alabama, USA May 2020

"PERFECT SPOT!" "Such a beautiful home in a perfect spot!  We loved every minute of our stay!"

N Naser, Alabama, USA Dec 2019

"AWESOME & VERY PRIVATE!" "Great place for a large gathering. Large enough for multiple families. Patio/balcony is awesome for relaxing. Hot tub was great, pool table was a blast. Bedrooms were large, same for the kitchen. Very private, we enjoyed it."

M Hamer, Tennessee, USA Nov 2019

"MORE THAN LUXURIOUS!" "This place is amazing. Great space, definitely lives up to the pictures but this home truly surpasses its pictures. The place is more than luxurious. We was a party of 18 on a couples Retreat and we truly were able to relax and enjoy. We would definitely stay at this home again."

Randall T, Kentucky, USA Oct 2019

"LAKESIDE WEDDING WAS SPECTACULAR!" "The house is absolutely BEAUTIFUL.  My daughter got married on the Deck down by the Lake.  She loved everything about it.  We had a great time and THE WEDDING WAS SPECTACULAR."

Bipin A, North Carolina, USA Aug 2019

"RECOMMEND 101%!" "SO MUCH PRIVACY, lake view with lake front, club house swimming pool, jacuzzi, well equipped kitchen, plenty of space for dining for big group, it's just fun fun fun!!!! since everything was there whatever we need.  A+++++ HOUSE.  WILL RECOMMEND 101% TO EVERYONE." 

Marc M, New Jersey, USA Jul 2019

"EXCEPTIONAL PROPERTY!" "My group of 15 had an EXCEPTIONAL TIME HERE.  The house is gorgeous and clean.  We especially enjoyed the swim deck, theater room, and ample bedroom space.  The views are beautiful and there is an excellent spot to swim right off the lake.  The hot tub and balcony are very comfortable spots for hanging as well.

Hessel B, Arizona, USA Jul 2019

"WONDERFUL FAMILY REUNION!" "Great spot for a family reunion. We had a WONDERFUL TRIP, the house was clean and as described."

John M, Alabama, USA Jul 2019

"A FUN WEEK!" "FAMILY REUNION, 22 ADULTS AND KIDS.  Everything we needed including day trips to Gatlinburg and Sevierville.  A full week of fun fishing swimming and hanging out."

Randall W, Ohio, USA Jun 2019

"LOOK FORWARD TO RETURNING SOON!" "Terrific home for a reunion of friends. The house was comfortable, spacious, clean and well appointed.  The deck over the water and the fire-pit were very nice.  And we enjoyed the lake, finding it to be very un-populated and without much tree debris.  The property manager was super responsive.  Plenty of laundry soap on-hand, and if you're staying for more than a few days, bring your own soap and shampoo.  Hairdryer too!  WE RECOMMEND THE PLACE and LOOK FORWARD TO VISITING AGAIN SOMETIME SOON."

Leonides L, Illinois, USA May 2019

"WILL DEFINITELY RETURN!" "My co-workers and I stayed at David’s beautiful home for Memorial Day weekend and the house was MORE THAN WHAT WE HAD EVER IMAGINED.  The house was really clean and everything was well taken care of.  The theater room was comfortable with lots of seating, the pool table is well taken care of and the living room is big with a large ceiling.  The view from the back porch is priceless(woke up in the morning had some orange juice and just enjoyed the beautiful view of the mountains and the river)!  There was plenty of room for all 18 of us and everything we needed from cooking pans to toilet paper was also available.  David was an awesome host and was available to contact at anytime.  We had an issue with the alarm( one of the coworkers activated while we were getting ready to leave) but one quick call to David solve that issue.  WE HAD AN AMAZING TIME AND WILL DEFINITELY COME BACK.  I would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND David’s lake house for an amazing gateway."

Andy H, Ohio, USA May 2019

"SPECTACULAR - WE RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!" “David's lake house was SPECTACULAR.  All the amenities were provided and easy to find, the views were very scenic and beautiful, and the service/communication couldn't have been better.  The lake was very nice to go out on and spend time during the day and the decks and porches were a great relaxing place during the days and nights.  All of my friends and I had a great time and there is ample capacity for group events and relaxing summer trips.  David and his manager were always available for help/questions during the trip and even recommended fun activities in the area.  David will answer any questions you have about the place beforehand and provide any extra information about the area that you need to know.  WOULD RECOMMEND to anyone who is looking for a fun group vacation in the area!”

Javier C, Puerto Rico, USA Dec 2018

"GREAT GETAWAY - AMAZING HOUSE!" "This place is amazing, it was a great getaway for our big family. We truly enjoyed watching movies in the huge screen of the cinema, playing billiard in the basement and the bonfire by the lake. The house was very clean and everything was very well kept, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook our home made meals. We went to Dollywood, Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg for day trips, which were about 30 min drive from the lake house. Overall would recommend this house and would gladly come back in the future!"

Beatrice B, Mississippee, USA Nov 2018

"100% WORTH THE MONEY!" "David’s place is absolutely amazing. I know everyone was sad to leave. Check-in was easy, and David left us alone our entire trip. David is a fantastic host. The home’s location is perfect, with it being far enough from Gatlinburg to avoid all the traffic/tourists, while still being close enough to where the drive in isn’t terrible. It is in a rental cabin area, but the property itself is private. The driveway is long enough to where you can’t even hear other people and there is plenty of parking. The view of the lake is amazing. The home has a ton of amenities with cups, plates, pots, pans, towels etc. all provided. The house was fantastic as every room was kept in great quality, and a ton of space for all of us. We loved using the great amenities such as the hot tub, pool table, deck and fire pit. There is a sound system in both the basement and the common room, both of which worked very well. The couch/beds were extremely comfortable. I would recommend this house for any large group. If I had the chance. I would definitely stay here again. 100% worth the money"

Chase W, Kentucky, USA Oct 2018

"IDEAL FOR REUNIONS & WEDDINGS!" "FABULOUS lakefront house, superbly furnished and fitted with great facilities including theater room, games room, hot tub, lakeside fire pit, and private boat dock.  IDEAL FOR FAMILY REUNION OR ANY SPECIAL PARTY INCLUDING WEDDINGS."

David W, Tennessee, USA Aug 2018

“BEAUTIFUL, SPACIOUS, & PEACEFUL!" "This house was everything we needed and more for our family reunion!  It's BEAUTIFUL AND SPACIOUS.  Everyone had a great time!  Close enough to town to go do things but so peaceful being right on the lake.  The owners are so helpful and accommodating.  I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS HOUSE to anyone who needs space for a larger group."

Tracy S, Florida, USA Jul 2018

"RESPONSIVE OWNERS ANSWERED OUR EVERY QUESTION!" "This home was TERRIFIC for our “sibling reunion”, which included six families off and on throughout the week.  The lake house was at the end of the cove, which was also near the pool.  So it was nice and quiet yet close enough to a marina and other fun things.  The water was clear and cool.  The kitchen was my favorite part inside the house.  That area boasted a huge island that made it convenient for many people to cook and talk simultaneously.  Two ovens made lots of bacon!  The theater room was huge and oh so comfortable, and we had lots of folks falling asleep in there.  It was like the people on the screen where life-size!  While the layout of one bedroom upstairs was a little quirky, it’s size and view made up for it.  The kids’ wing, with the many bunkbeds and little Rooms coming off the main room of bunkbeds, made the rest of the bedrooms elsewhere for the adults even better.  There is more to say, but I have said enough.  One of the biggest things about this house is the RESPONSIVENESS OF THE OWNERS.  They call back immediately, are extremely kind and caring, and welcomed all my many, many questions.  These folks really put their hearts into this house and care about your good time."

Amber W, Indiana, USA Jul 2018

"GREAT FAMILY RETREAT!" "The house is beautiful on a fantastic 5 acre lot right on the water. The 7 bedrooms were very comfortable and the kitchen and dining room are equally well-equipped and large. The owner was very friendly and responsive. We especially liked the dock on the property and direct access to the water. It was a great family retreat and we will visit again."

Laura B, New York, USA Jun 2018

"OUTSTANDING VIEWS!" "Beautiful well appointed home with outstanding views from decks. Douglas Lake was fun to experience from a rented boat. Hot tub seemed brand new. Community pool available. Very near to plenty of excellent outdoor activities, white water rafting, ropes courses, fabulous Gatlinburg."

Arthur And David

Private Owner From Lancashire, United Kingdom Member since Feb 2021

With properties in Florida, UK, Italy, and the Caribbean owned by our family who reside in the USA and the UK, we looked at several US states before deciding to buy in Tennessee. The location of the Lake House occupying a 5 acres waterfront lot on Douglas Lake was by far the best property we found providing privacy in luxury accommodation on a gated and secluded peninsular with the lake on 3 sides. The proximity to facilities and amenities at nearby Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg was a major factor in our decision to buy. Our family and our guests have enjoyed time spent at the Lake House and we are now taking many repeat bookings and referrals. US, Canadian, and European renters have access to our contact details in the USA and in the UK.
