GREAT PLACE TO STAY - SECOND TIME STAYING HERE.
Enjoyed our stay again. The views are perfect especially for watching the fireworks. Very peaceful part of the lake. The sunsets never get old. The renovations look great.
Property location couldn’t have been better. Unit clean but could benefit from updating and touching up paint to look crisper. Porches both needed to be cleaned better and had been painted and decor just left on the ground in upper porch. Missing some essentials in kitchen like a dponge or cle
We enjoyed our stay. We were able to oversee the lake and go fishing. There were some concerns of the balcony areas top and bottom were full of spider webs and needs to be sprayed and cleaned. Also after being in the cabin observed food (French fries) under living room couch and areas need dusting. Also, I think management needs to check behind the employees hired to clean their cabins, as there were no kitchen cloths to was dishes with and dish detergent and dishwasher soap was low and laundry soap was low as well.Otherwise, the stay was great and will be staying again in the future as long as the mention concerns are addressed.

Pros and CONS
Our rating Over all is a 3. ill explain.. pro's: it was a great family weekend, the lake views were beautiful, we enjoyed fishing, kayaking , grilling out. it was quiet, relaxing & exactly what we needed!
However, CONS :It was DRASTICALLY smaller than expected and very dusty! Mattresses are hard as bricks, bed frame too big for mattress size & broken in one room caused bruised shins and cussing when the piece fell & cracked my toe twice! It has a nice but VERY COLD jack and jill bathroom downstairs & the upstairs Plumbing is horribly loud

Quick golf and relaxation visit
Condo is in a great location, very convenient to grocery store and centralized to the three golf courses that I chose to play. It was disappointing that each condo only has one parking space, but luckily there was overflow area open. Downstairs bathroom needs to be remodeled or, the tub needs to be cleaned and/or re-caulked. A lot of mildew/mold. Shower drain did not work properly or fast enough, but if you turn the shower off it drains immediately. Most VRBO‘s I’ve stayed in and have had some sort of soap or shampoo available, there was nothing to use for anyone to shower. Disappointing. I read in the listing that there was a gas grill, but I never saw one. The views and location are amazing. Unfortunately, there was a power outage at 8:45 am before checkout so we were unable to run the dishwasher or adjust the thermostat.

Views of Lake Chatuge were gorgeous. Otherwise poor to bad.overall review. Spiders by the hundreds on the stairs and doorway . Lots of spider webs. Neither of the porches had been swept in a long time, also spider webs, debris, leaves, etc. Wasps and wasp nests in porches. Not pleasant. Lighting fixtures in bedroom not working. Old furniture, disjointed unmatching furniture. two rockers in disrepair, old, musty towels. Step ladder with fan on it in bedroom. No place to put groceries in kitchen area as pantry door was locked. Screen door the in lower porch wouldn’t close. Musty in one of bedrooms. Socks found in living room, property really had not been cleaned prior to our arrival. Also lack of communication with leasing office on day of arrival as calls went unanswered. Really disappointing stay.
We had the best family getaway here at this property on Lake Chatuge! The place was everything by we needed and right on the lake. :) We loved it and will definately be back!!!
Wish we could've stayed a month! This adorable townhouse is all about the beautiful lake and mountain views. It's quiet, well-stocked, and conveniently located to everything, but you won't want to leave the house. My best advice: Bring a good book and your most comfortable pjs, order DoorDash or Uber Eats or just grill steaks on the grill by the lake, and relax. I know we sure did!
Lake and Mountain View’s were just beautiful. Great porches and dock! The townhouse has everything you need, but is a little run down. Bathroom tub and shower area is really pitiful. Water also does not stay warm past five mins when showering.

Location and view with lake access was a plus
The condo did not accommodate 6 as advertised. The pull out sofa springs were broken and not attached and missing making it impossible to sleep on as a bed. We had to drive to the next county to purchase an inflatable mattress.

The property was not easy for 2 old people. There were stairs every where. Going to our bedrooms and going into the house. If we had only known we would not have stayed there. The place next door to us had a deck with a flat Walkway. Oh well. We would have been happier. The house itself was very nice though.

Just being honest
Should really rethink property management ...horrible smell, mattresses hard as rocks, spider webs in living room, downstairs toilet handle extremely hard to push... but views are great. I've been using vrbo for 6 years never gave a bad review hopefully these issues will be resolved. CJ

I wish we had known...
This is a perfect place for the young at heart. Unfortunately, we are not. The photos show ramps going up to the back of the condos for easy access. Our VRBO was the only condo with steep stairs, very steep stairs. The lockbox did not work and the key was by the doormat. Once inside we found that the bedrooms were downstairs, very steep and narrow interior stairs. We called Tiffany right away needing help with the TV remote. Left a message and never heard from her. The 2 king beds were terrible and need replacing. One creaked and squeaked when any one turned over. The other one sank in the middle. We figured the TV remote problem by replacing all the batteries. The view was gorgeous...So if you are young this place is for you. If you are old fogeys with health issues go elsewhere.
