House is huge. It is well stocked. The furniture & decorations are nice. It was a great location on the lake. The setting is very peaceful.
As a bonus, it's within a short drive to Sevierville.
The whole family greatly enjoyed our stay.

Location was beautiful. The house was huge so we had plenty of room. It was truly a lovely stay. We loved that there was so much to do! The lake was wasn’t crowded at all, so we had plenty of space to tube and ski. There were just a few small things that were a little disappointing. The hot tub wasn’t up to temperature when we tried to use it the last night, the outside furniture cushions were really worn and stained and the kitchen wasn’t as stocked as we would have liked, but other than that a great stay!

We had a wonderful time. The host was great. The property was perfect and had everything we needed. The only problem we had is the boat ramp shouldn’t be used. It has a large jagged drop off. We ruined a tire and rim pulling the boat out of the water. You should use the public dock until they fix this. There should be a warning sign.

The property was large enough to house our large extended family. The property inside was decorated nice and with lots of things for the teens and kids to do. HOWEVER, the inside needed to be cleaned a little better. Dusty cob webs in some of the lamps, headboards of beds. Under beds were lots of dust trash and dirty towels. Under one of the beds was a dirty diaper. The outside had so many spiders, webs, spider eggs covering outdoor furniture doorways on side of house all eves. Large hornet nest attached to top eve of house. Wasps neat EVERYWHERE. One of the bedrooms that has a door leading to a deck had a wasp nest between the door and screen. The person who opened that door go strung several times on face and arms. A swing on the back porch/deck had a wasp nest underneath. Our elderly mother received multiple stings on her legs. The floating docks also cover with wasp nest so be sure to bring wasp spray for protection. Amenities clearly stated a kayak included on property but it was locked in garage. When questioned the owner he said “ you were able to bring your own . Sorry for the misunderatanding” Driveways are narrow so with larger vehicles turning around is challenging. Paperwork left for checkin stated welcome gift of drinks in fridge downstairs but there was none. The railing on the upper porch/deck was so loose we could not enjoy to views for fear of someone falling. Outside landscape also was overgrown.

Plenty of room and beautiful views.

This house is beautiful. There were 17 of us and we were mostly able to sleep in a bed. Mostly...the two boys age 9 and 11 had to sleep on the air mattresses. Unfortunately the mattresses did not hold air and their dad had to purchase two sleeping bags for their stay. There are enough bathrooms to accommodate our large family.
Besides the air mattress we did not have enough silverware and most all of the china was cracked or chipped. We also encountered many dead and live bugs. I'm assuming it was due to the house not being used any time near our use.
All in all we enjoyed our stay. We loved having a pool table and ping pong table. There are numerous tv's and dvd players. Having two kitchens helped with the large amount of groceries we purchased.
Thanks for having us.

My husband and I took my son and daughter and their children there for a weeks vacation. There were 10 of us and there was plenty of room for all of us. We had such a great time. We went sightseeing during the day and spent quality family time together in the evening. There were a few small concerns but Kevin addressed them immediately. He was definitely a great host and was easily accessible. You could stay in this area for a month and still not see everything there is to see and do!

As a family we always enjoy coming to Eastern Tennessee to vacation and spend time together. This year was no exception.
The property we rented was perfect for our crew. There was ample space for everyone and with the two levels, the younger group took over the lower level with the pool table, additional kitchen space and large TV.
This allowed the older visitors to spend most of their time on the entry level, minimizing stair climbing for them, yet they also had access to a large TV and a full kitchen.
The multiple decks allow great views of the lake, the mountain ridges and some beautiful sunrises.
We traveled in late October and I was amazed at the extremely low water level of the lake. I had never seen it this low, so we actually were walking “on water” as we explored the lake area.
Overall, We found the house to be well equipped and clean. There was ample toilet paper, detergents for both the sink and the washing machine, and kitchen basics. This isn’t always the case when you rent a home for the week.
I found Kevin easy to work with, and his communication was very helpful and informative.
Thank you! We will definitely consider a return visit next year, as the location is far enough away from the Pigeon Forge chaos for respite, yet close enough that an activity isn’t an all day event.

Excellent place! Roomy and comfortable for a big group, and the lake access was amazing!

We had a great family vacation on Douglas Lake in Sevierville. We had 9 adults and 5 kids, and the house was perfect for us. Everyone had lots of room and we were very comfortable. Interior amenities were just right; Internet service was good, lots of refrigerator & counter space, great washer & dryer, etc. It was hot out, but the AC kept us very comfortable. Besides spending most of the time outdoors, the kids watched movies on the big screen, played with the Wii, played pool, and played with some of the provided board games/cards, etc.
The house was secluded, private and was in a very quiet location. However, still close enough to Pigeon Forge, etc. Grocery store only 10 minutes away, etc.
The family spent a lot of time in the water at the dock. Kids fished off the dock and shore. We also rented a pontoon boat and the dock was a perfect fit for the boat.
The house sits up on a hill, and the driveways are a bit tight, but manageable. There are just over 100 steps down to the water, and it was a bit tough for some going back up. We did drive a vehicle down & up for one with medical issues, so it was still very manageable.
Host was very accessible when we had questions!
Overall, a great stay, and if we ever come back to Sevierville we would try to stay here again.

This house has everything to offer a large group or family! It was super easy to find out of the hustle and bustle of downtown but only 15-20 minutes away from pigeon forge . The boat dock was large and nice . The stairs are quiet a task to walk but could drive down people that need help. Other than that absolutely beautiful.

Everthing was wonderful. We had a great time, house was beautiful.

We had 14 people in our group ranging from 2 years to 65 years. The house has 3 levels so there was a family on each floor. We enjoyed the middle deck. It was so peaceful and serene. We were within 30 to 40 minutes of all attractions that we went to. The house had everything you need to enjoy a family vacation.
4.8
This house is amazing! The layout was perfect for our large group and we never felt crowded. The house was well stocked with everything we needed and everyone said their room and bed was comfortable. The stairs to the water looked new so only issue was how many there were!
4.8
Plenty of room for the 14 people we had staying. This house has multiple levels so there’s lots of stairs inside. And lots of steps outside to the dock at the lake. A golf cart would have been nice. It’s a beautiful home.
4.8
We could not have asked for a better property for our stay. Beautiful home and very private property. Host was extremely accommodating as well.

Beautiful property in a nice private location on the lake.
The stairs down to the lake are a little dangerous with uneven steps.
4.8
Overall a great vacation. House was comfortable and BIG. Two full kitchens for our group, 2 dining areas inside and outside, large capacity washer n dryer! Internet needs a booster - we had 4 teenagers plus adults trying to use at once. Small repairs needed on wooden deck/stairs but nothing that was a safety concern. Would stay again!

Great spot for all ages!
We really enjoyed our stay! The house was very clean and spacious with plenty of areas for all to gather together (there were 12 of us but there was plenty of room for more). The kitchens were very well stocked with cookware and dishes which made eating in very convenient. Location is great with a feeling of seclusion but plenty of things to do just a short drive away. Swimming off the private dock was a big hit and a great way to cool off. The owner was very responsive to the couple of questions and concerns we had before and during our stay.
4.8
The house is beautiful, clean, and comfortably accommodates 16 people. Works well for multiple families since it has 4 Master bedrooms each with bathrooms, plus 4 more bedrooms. Top floor has two of the master bedrooms and a small bedroom with a double bed. Main level has a master bedroom with two small bedrooms one with double and one with two twin beds (trundle). Lower level has a master and a small bedroom with a double. There is a hall bath with shower on main floor and another on lower level. There are two full kitchens! The home is well decorated and has everything you need. Ping pong/pool table and Hot tub were also very nice. The downside to this property is the number of stairs to the dock and the fact that they are uneven and poorly constructed and maintained. One adult in our group had step collapse under him causing an injury and trip to the urgent care. I would not recommend using the stairs. The driveway to the dock is new concrete and is safe to walk down or drive a car down. The other downside was that we did not have full use of the dock. The pictures show an empty dock with parking for a boat but the owners’ boat and jet ski were parked there. We had rented a very large pontoon boat and had to tie it off at the front next to the owners boat which made it very difficult to dock it and maneuver around the other boat. The owner was easy to work with and was very responsive when we had questions and concerns. Overall, I would recommend this property.

Perfect Memorial day weekend
We had an amazing time at this property for our family vacation and my dads 69th birthday. There was plenty of room for 11 of us to spread out, but even more room for us all to come together.
We utilized the dock and ramp and rented a boat from a local marina to enjoy the lake.
There was plenty of wildlife, including a bear, deer, lots of birds and fish!
Great place and as advertised!

Fantastic rental!
We had a group of 13 people on our 8/19/21 vacation. The house was clean, spacious, and it had a great layout. Kevin was very prompt to respond to any questions that we had. The house was close enough to fun and exciting day trips but outside of the busy towns so we could relax. Such a fantastic rental property!

The house is fantastic ! We had a large family gathering and the layout of the home couldn't be any better. The house and decks are so spacious that gathering a lot of people is easy and when you wanted/needed your own time - there was plenty of room for that as well. The Property Manager was super responsive to any and all inquiries which made the stay that much better.

Overall, a very nice, spacious house. We ended up having some confusion over checkout time. It ended up being listed as 9AM which is definitely on the early side. But the house was well maintained and private right on the lake
