Nice spot

Great view of the lake. The house was nice. The only minor complaint was unable to use the hot tub. It had an odor. I am certain Blue Ridge would have fixed the smell, however we just chose not to use it during our stay. Would stay again.

Relaxing getaway

We were looking for a relaxing weekend with family and the Lazy Bass was perfect for us. Great communication with the hosts, well stocked house and kitchen, great wifi, and quiet neighborhood. The big yellow house really stands out on the street and makes it easy to find and the fenced backyard is perfect if you bring a pet.

Beautiful Spot on the Lake

The house was very comfortable and the hot tub was clean! The location on the lake is beautiful, but a bit out of the way. The fenced in area was perfect for our little dog! Be advised there are skylights in both the king size bedrooms.

Amazing Getaway!

The perfect place for a family getaway! Far enough away, but close enough to amenities! Loved swimming right off the dock, having a nightly bonfire, and plenty of space to spread out within the house. The state park swimming beach was only a 25 minute drive away and was the perfect place to relax with the family! Had an amazing time and will definitely recommend to others!

We took a sibling trip to the house with our kids and it was the perfect place for us. Kid friendly. The road was private so we were able to enjoy a few walks. The house was clean and cozy. And of course, we enjoyed the lake!

cycling/hiking trip to Hiwassee

Our stay at the Lazy bass was so quiet and peaceful and in a beautiful neighborhood. We felt very safe and had easy access to our trails. We cooked most of our meals and had plenty of supplies there to have a relaxing time; we even grilled outside while viewing the lake. The 2 king beds were very comfortable. Overall it was pleasant stay.
