Ladies getaway
Great property for large group. We were pleased with the size/amenities. The carpet under the dining table slides and can be a trip hazard. Also the listing included a fire pit but agreement states no burning. We weren’t able to partake in that. Other than that we really enjoyed the property and will visit again.

House was a perfect fit! Well setup for our family, after being on the lake, coming back to grill and even the board games the kids loved. Very conveniently located for items we needed/forgot and very spacious. All made for a wonderful experience we want to repeat next year

Great weekend getaway!
We had a great time at this property. We had 3 families - 6 adults and 5 kids ages 7 to 18. We arrived on Friday night and ordered a pizza and played games. Saturday we stayed around the house, played cornhole (brought our own boards), and went to the nearby restaurant Twisted Oaks for some great food and live music. We rented a boat at Hidden Harbor marina on Sunday. The house was perfect, exactly what we needed, and we're already talking about next year. The only thing I would change is the room with the 2 twin beds, a double or a queen would have fit our needs better, but we knew that going in. We had a great time!

My Family and I really enjoyed ourselves so that we stayed an extra night. The house was not too far from the sites we drove to see. We arrived one hour earlier. And the property manager was so kind to allow us to put our things in the house early. We were so overjoyed by everyones patience and kindness to us. We would love to come and visit again in the future.

The property was beautiful . The only thing I could see that needs work on is is deck the steps are a little steep for older people and the screen on the deck needs fixed and the screen going into the house needs repaired. But really enjoyed our short stay

No Heat
The house was great. The kids loved the yard and play equipment, The thermostat would not cause heat to come on. Used the fireplace to heat the house but could not regulate the temp so had to start or stop the fireplace every few hours to keep the temp under control. Hard to sleep when you are trying to keep the kids warm.

Short family gathering on our way home from vacation. Kitchen was truly amazingly stocked with just about all cooking utensils one could imagine, we cooked meals there our entire stay. Potholders was about the only item missing. House, patio, grounds were all excellent, communication was outstanding. Neighborhood was very nice and quiet. Did have a friendly cat come visit us outside. Highly recommend would stay there again in a heartbeat

We had a great trip for a family wedding with no problems or concerns. Love the big sectional that is super comfy and seats a lot. Great to relax, enjoy time with family and room for all. Two big tables with 8 chairs each and great functionality. Big room to play group games, enjoyed the screened in porch in the mornings. We rented a pontoon boat with a tube for a day on Center Hill Lake-lots of fun. Highly recommend you book your stay here today!

Nice Location
We enjoyed our stay in central Tennessee. The interior house was very nice and accommodating. The outside not so much. The owner has thought of many nice additions and supplies inside the house. The outside back screened porch as unusable due to the torn screens and door. Bugs were constantly coming inside and as a renter I got tired of trying to sweep up, spray and get rid of them. The driveway has a large drop off with no safety railing on the side so be careful that you don’t accidentally step off the side and fall. The deck needs to be refinished. I ripped my arm open on a nail that was sticking up so we proceeded to try to pound several nails into the wood. Same with the kid’s play structure. It needs to be refinished for safety reasons. I believe the owner is very caring and takes care of her property the best she can. I would attribute the outside area (such as the dead bushes and fall leaves in the front yard landscaping) to the grounds keeping company. Unfortunately it rained so we weren’t able to do much outside on the property which is not the owner’s fault - just the luck of the draw. I would rent this place again but for the money you pay, I would like to see the outside get a little more attention for safety reasons and aesthetics.
