Memorial Day Weekend

We really enjoyed our stay here on Lake Chatuge. This house is conveniently located 5 minutes from downtown. It was easy to run to the grocery store, restaurants, and the marina to pick up the boat we rented. Very clean inside and the renovations were done well. We will definitely be back for another lake weekend.
