Labor Day Family Trip

We had such a fun time at this house, the property is just as described. One bonus is that there is a mini-kitchen downstairs with a full refrigerator that has an ice maker. That worked out great for our group because we all do a lot of cooking while we're there. The beds were comfortable, patio area with the fire pit is amazing down by the lake. We just wished we could've stayed longer! Hope to get back here next Labor Day!

Band Trip

The house was well equipped. Everything we needed in the kitchen was provided. The kayaks and canoe we quite the bonus! We got a lot of use out of the fire pit area and ping pong. Great place to stay.

Family getaway

Our family(7 adults) loved the property! We had a great stay and everything was as advertised or better. Communication with the owner was superb! During our stay a severe storm came through the area and power was out for almost 24 hours. The owners were very responsive and brought us a generator, water, and a giant cooler with ice! They really did everything that could be done and it was very nice to know they were there for us! The house itself is beautiful and had everything we needed, including a well stocked kitchen. Beds and bathrooms were all clean and comfortable. The lake access and outdoor space was amazing! We loved the dock and swim platform, the kayaks, and the fire pit area!. The boat ramp was a real plus for quick, easy access for our jet ski. The ping pong table, dvd's, and ring toss game were great to pass the time when the storms hit. The only issue we had was cell service and internet access. Although wi-fi is provided the service was spotty and inconsistent. We were there to enjoy the lake though and this wasn't a huge issue for us. We have rented several properties on Douglas lake over past several years and this was a clear favorite! We look forward to returning to Rusty Hook and if they add a hot tub it might be hard to get me to leave. P.S. If you find yourself floating in the lake just off the dock keep an eye out for "Kieth" the painted turtle! Highlight of the stay was feeding him out of our hands when he swam up to us!

About the host

Hosted by Kandy Holt

We live in Knoxville TN and have been spending summers on the lake most of our lives. We have 3 boys and never have a shortage of their friends who love to swim, ski, and fish. We love being able to share our home with other families and small groups who like us, need a break from reality and need to breathe in God's wonderful creation.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this lake front property due to the beautiful views, year round water, peaceful neighborhood and easy access to Historic Dandridge and several other tourist attractions.
