Beautiful property, great location!!

This house is beautiful, and has everything needed for a relaxing vacation! Fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, lots of space to store our stuff, a quiet cove without much if any boat traffic. After going to Norris Lake the previous 4 summers, Watts Bar Lake wins with far fewer boaters and a peaceful vibe. We’ll be back!

Great Lake Vacation

Had just a wonderful stay at this lake house on Watts Bar Lake. We had 9 adults and 3 toddlers, and everything went as well as we had hoped. We rented a pontoon boat on one day, and swam off the house's dock the next. Kitchen was perfect for handling our large group. It was not a big deal, but getting the TVs to work was not successful for us. We didn't go to watch TV, of course. But better instructions on operation of the remotes, and which TVs might have cable, etc. would have been appreciated.

Great lakeside location

Great house. We were a group of six adults and three teens. Plenty of space to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked and we loved the screened porch. The dining table was a bit small for our group so we took chairs onto the porch and ate from our laps most nights. Not a problem. It was nice to have the grill. The dock was perfect as we had a boat for the week. We were surprised there were no beach/lake towels in the home for us to use but thankfully our parents were driving instead of flying and brought some. Would definitely stay here again. Debby was easy to reach and responsive when we had a question.

Great family lake retreat

Our kids grew up vacationing with their grandparents at a lake in VA, and we aim to repeat some of that experience for them and their kids (our grandchildren). This house was well suited for sleeping several family groups, and the kids' room as a huge bonus space over the garage was perfect for the grands. The house is very well stocked. The dock served well for deep-water mooring and play. Note that the path to the dock is steeply sloped flagstone, but on two nice days even the great-grandparents managed it with some effort. Location on a slough is great for protected swimming and kayaking but there's no walk-in point to the water. The owner was quick to respond to questions. We will definitely consider another visit!

Perfect stay!

Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Super clean and had everything you could want or need. Loved spending time on the screened in porch (especially listening to the rain one night) and swimming and fishing off the dock. We stayed with 9 adults and there was plenty of room. Couldn’t recommend more!

Our family of 11 enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. The kitchen was well stocked. The primary bathroom was amazing. Access to garage and second refrigerator was very helpful! The dock was very nice and we all had fun in the water (since the water at the dock was year round, the path to the dock was quite steep but manageable and had a handrail). A second bathroom upstairs would have been nice for the 7 people staying up there, but we managed and it didn’t stop us from having a great time.

The perfect family vacation spot!

Our family of 6 adults and 1 pre-teen greatly enjoyed our stay at the lake house! We loved relaxing on the lake, which was very quiet and private, and we also loved that the game room downstairs was well-insulated so that those of us who were night owls could enjoy conversations at full volume, music, and foosball without disturbing the family members who had gone to bed early. The screened-in porch was wonderful as well!

Beautiful Home

We enjoyed the beautiful home, very spacious. All of the bedrooms were large and nicely done. The kitchen was nice and well equipped. The short walk to the dock was very steep but there is a railing. Our teens enjoyed their own space and drove down to the nearby park to play basketball. Lots of parking space.
