Great Stay
We stayed here for my daughter’s wedding weekend! It was a perfect location close to the venue (Howe Farms). I wish the weather could have been better to enjoy the beautiful outdoors of your home.

Wedding weekend stay
I chose this Airbnb for my sister, the bride, and her bridesmaids to stay. The venue was at Howe’s farms, about a 25 minute drive. It was perfect and being on the water was so nice! Definitely would recommend staying here to anyone looking for a weekend getaway by the water.

Beautiful lodging for family who came to daughter's wedding
Gorgeous view of the Tennessee river from the spacious porches and decks. It was a clean and well-supplied home that met our needs very well. The spaces were comfortable and tastefully decorated. We appreciated that it was uncluttered and had modern appliances. It was a bit of a drive over some narrow roads to go for groceries but the view and peacefulness made it worth it.

Fishing vacation
It was exactly as listed on VRBO. 8 adults stayed comfortably, lots of memories made. We had 4 boats and had plenty of room to park and plug in, short distance to ramp. Beautiful sunsets! Screen doors/ porch screens in need of repair, so we were unable to open doors or use screened in porch as designed due to mosquitoes and spiders.

Great Stay
This property is very nice. The owner greets with a special package of items from the local area. The beds are overly soft for my tastes, but it was manageable. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful view of the water.

This place is beautiful
My entire family loved this place. We spent several days on the water. The kayaks and paddle boards were in good condition. The AC worked great. The Home really had every accommodation. This is one of our most favorite places we have ever stayed. This was such a great vacation.

The perfect place!
Wow! There are not enough Greta things to say about this place. Clean, the place is huge! Like other reviewers have said, the pictures do not the place justice. We had such a great time. The doc is really nice and there are plenty of hang out areas. Really nice that there are board games in the house We would recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay in the area. It is perfect!
