Weekend at the Shed

A group of us (friends) came for a long weekend of music at The Shed. This place was PERFECT! The weather was nice, the lake was wonderful to wake up to. We didn't get a change to take anything out on the lake, but we did enjoy the dock for a bit. The beds were so comfortable, everyone came out the first morning and said the same thing, "I need to find out what that mattress is and I'm getting one!". Location was not bad, others complained about the curvy road, which it and it's very narrow at some points but we made the trip in and out over 10 times and it's really not that far or that bad. This was probably the most well stocked house I've ever stayed at, we brought extra trash bags, paper towels, utensils, paper plates, coffee filters, etc and didn't need any of it! Overall, every person in our group loved this house the most out of all the ones we've all stayed at together. We hope to be able to rent again for the next time!

Labor Day Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Driftwood Cottage. The house was laid out very thoughtfully. Loved the screened in porch with the view of the cove. The neighborhood was very quiet & peaceful. The extra room with the floats was a plus. I would highly recommend this property!

Loved the place. Very nice neighborhood on the water.

Property was just as represented and was clean and well furnished. Enjoying kayaking as well. Communication with the host was excellent and check in and check out was flawless. Although not a newer property- it was well maintained. A little remote, but easy to find and the drive was enjoyable and the location was central to our exploration of the area. I would stay here again and recommend to others.

Wonderful Lakefront Home

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the lakefront home on Fort Loudon Lake. While it was somewhat remote, out on an peninsula close to Friendsville, we were still able to get to restaurants, Historic Fort Loudon, and Maryville/Townsend/Lenoir City for antiquing. The home was as advertised and was very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic Family Vacation

Beautiful house and lake. The house was nice, very clean and comfortable for a family vacation. The downstairs bedroom was perfect for our grandkids, while the screened porch gave my husband and I time to enjoy our coffee each morning as the rest of the house slept. Lake Loundon is a beautiful, clear calm lake. Wonderful vacation, enjoyed by the entire family!

A nice place to relax.

We stayed at this property for a long weekend as part of a family wedding. It’s a lovely property with a nice screened in porch overlooking the water. It’s a bit secluded (~ 30 minutes from some shops and restaurants) but easy to navigate to these places. The kitchen is well appointed but we suggest you bring some basic staples like salt, and sugar. Overall we recommend the place.

Beautiful location and quiet neighborhood

We wanted a place where we could have our daughters and their husbands visit us for the holiday weekend and all stay together in one location. All three bedrooms have a bathroom which was perfect. Plenty of rafts for the water along with two kayaks. Fishing was fun from your private pier. Very quiet neighborhood. Beautiful home.
