The Kitchen is well equipped with cookware and most everything you would need to fix any meal.

On the exterior, there is a front balcony style porch. The back of the house features Upper and Lower deck/ porches. We just added a brand new hot tub In March 2022! It sits in the covered patio at 101 degrees. The house is right on the water so it is excellent for Kayaking, canoeing, SUP (Stand Up Paddle board), water sports, and fishing. We offer 6 kayaks, 2 SUPs, all the paddles and lifevests and 2 Mountain Bikes for our guests use. Some of the best fishing in Tennessee is right in this lake! You can also enjoy a campfire at the fire pit with Adirondack chairs.

We offer 6 kayaks, 2 SUPs and 2 Mountain Bikes for our guests use. We also have 13 - one size fits all lifevests and 2 helmets.

Pets are allowed on a case-by-case basis with a pet fee. There is a fenced in are about 50' X 70' with 2 gates for access to the pet. To access it, you will go outside the Sunroom door (opposite of the deck) and walk about 15 feet to the gate. Please keep your pet leashed until inside of the fenced in area.

We supply a starter set Coffee, Dish Soap, Laundry Soap and Hand Soap in addition to TP, Paper towels and a complete set of towels and linens for your whole stay.

You have access to the whole 1 acre of property, the lake, front house and the Sunroom. There is a back in-law quarters that is not accessible at this time, it is the owner’s area. We do not typically stay in the house while there are guests, however, if we have a contractor or a delivery coming in (like the hot tub added in March 2022), we do stay, but will give notice to the guest as soon as we find out.

There's a two minute video on youtube of the house. Title: The Lake house-Knoxville The bar, fireplace and wood paneled part of the house is the owners area, guests do not have access to these areas.

For the security of our home and the safety of our guests, there are 5 total cameras for surveillance. There is a Ring doorbell and 4 other cameras for security.
*Monitoring the Driveway.
*Monitoring the Garage/Laundry/Supply area.
*Monitoring the Lake/Boat from the patio.
*Monitoring the Fenced in dog area.
We are not intrusive and want you to enjoy your stay, we've positioned the cameras away from the interior of the home. Unfortunately, security these days are a necessity and we have to protect our home. Thank you for understanding.

Great getaway!
Perfect getaway with water up all year round. Good fishing even in December (caught perch and a striped bass). The most organized VRBO place we have stayed. A lot of little extras such as a stocked coffee bar (with a Keurig), fire starters for the fire pit, and marshmallow sticks. Beds were very comfortable. Highly recommend this place.

Move to Tennessee
My daughter and son- in-law moved from Dallas to Tennessee for his job. We helped them with the move and stayed longer to see Tennessee. The house was beautiful and wax supplied with everything you needed. I would definitely stay at this house again!

I will just say WOW! Amazing hosts and house!
What an immaculate house! Hosts thought of everything! So much attention paid to all the creature comforts! Beds and bedding is A+. Kayaks and paddle boards are in terrific condition and easy to take to water and launch. The lake was the hi light and we enjoyed lovely peaceful paddles in gorgeous surroundings. Conveniently close to downtown and Smokey Mountain National Park. Excellent ling weekend getaway. Coming back with rest if the family soon!

Lakehouse
It was a very relaxing and clean place that we could just enjoy with our family. Doing the kayaking and smores at night was just a bonus. My family enjoyed being able to fish right behind the house so you never got bored. There is always something to do and we will be back!!!!

Fantastic break from real life!
This is a fantastic place to stay! All of the lake toys were such a nice surprise and happily used! The hot tub was wonderful, the games (cornhole, checkers on the table, and the arcade game!) were fabulous! I haven't played Tetris since I was a teen and it was so fun to revisit. We did not turn the television on one time. So close to Windrock and really fun to visit Oak Ridge and learn all about the Manhattan Project there. We will definitely come again! Hopefully, with more people to share the fabulousness of it!
