Inside the Cabin was okay for the most part but it was everything else that wasn’t great. 1st off the grass was almost knee high, the hot tub was nasty and we didn’t even use, the grill wasn’t clean, the drive back to the cabin was a little sketchy especially since we brought our boat, and the really big deal for us was something they couldn’t control but in the listing it said the water level would be up by May 15th and it wasn’t. The water was so low the dock was about 10 feet from the water’s edge sitting on the hillside and that was another issue, you had to be half mountain goat just climb down to the water to fish and back climb back up which was terrible trying to carry the fishing gear and chair! Also no close boat ramp to put the boat in. We had to drive 45 minutes to find a public boat ramp. Just an overall bad experience. So bad we left 2 days early.

My husband and I just finished our anniversary trip here. The location has breathtaking views. Nice sized home, sitting outside is adequate. House could have been cleaned better, it is only being surface cleaned, nothing moved and cleaned under and was a fruit fly problem in the kitchen. Down side to the trip, was we went with the intention on fishing and relaxing, this wasn't the case. Water level was extremely low by 13 feet, the dock had been pullled in, we literally had to sit IN the lake to fish and then that was tricky being its all downhill. A couple of recommendations for owners, if the water is that low, notify the people renting so alternative plans can be made to do other things, instead of specifically going to do the one activity that the location was chosen for and not being able to do so. Being on the lake i would have expected some type of lake equipment being availabl like a, paddle boat, kayak etc. ( We came with everything to be able to fish off the dock) Especially with water levels being so low, fishng was nonexistent because you cant reach the fish without a boat. Hot tub was clean and great, only thing was the breaker tripped and wouldn't hold but maintenamce was very quick to get out and fix the problem in a matfer of a few hours. Overall, the location was great, other than the water situation. We would definitely like to revisit when water levels are where they need to be in order to fully enjoy why we rented this in the first place.

Thank you for your review and for choosing Fireside Chalets for your anniversary getaway. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the breathtaking views, the home, and that our maintenance team was able to quickly resolve the hot tub issue during your stay. We appreciate your feedback regarding the lake conditions. Lake levels are managed externally and can vary significantly throughout the year depending on rainfall and other environmental factors. For this reason, we do encourage guests to check current lake levels prior to arrival, especially when planning activities such as fishing. We understand how disappointing it can be when conditions do not align with expectations for a planned activity. Thank you for your comments regarding the property as well. We appreciate the feedback and are pleased to hear you would consider returning when water levels are higher. We would be happy to welcome you back for another stay in the future.

I booked this rental for a group of ladies for our annual Christmas trip. We had all visited the area many times, so we had planned to simply relax at the cabin for the entire weekend, and this was a lovely location for that. However, it should be noted that the cabin is not at all isolated; there are neighbors close by. The hot tub alone was the reason enough for the 5 star rating. Even though the weather was very cold, we were able to enjoy the hot tub for both sunrises and sunsets because we were protected from the wind. Perfection.There are plenty of beds, blankets, etc. If I had to find a complaint, it would be that the kitchen is not overly well-stocked. We ordered groceries after arriving, and cooked at the cabin the entire time, so it would be been nice to have more options with cookware, dishes, etc. Some guests might also find the furnishings to be a bit dated as well, but that was not a concern to us, and the cabin was decorated nicely for Christmas, which we enjoyed. Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and we would book again!

Surface clean, but not thoroughly clean. Upstairs shower leaked into downstairs bathroom had to call maintenance man out to repair that as well as the loveseat recliner which is in really bad shape. Blinds missing in the upstairs bathroom. Only half of the hot tub would actually bubble. The lake was drained to the point where all of the docs were on land about 30 feet above water level. Apparently draining the lakes is something that happens annually. It would’ve been nice to know this before booking our stay. When calling for maintenance they promptly answered and were very responsive. All communications were clear and timely. We would not stay in this cabin again.

We’re sorry if this was missed before booking, as the seasonal levels can change the appearance of the shoreline. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us improve for future guests.

The location, exterior of the home, and some of the interior were great. Having a pet with me and having to retrieve toys from under furniture, you actually see how a property is cleaned. There was a lot of dust, dirt and food under the furniture. With hardwood floors, it would be easy to move the furniture to give it a quick swipe. Also, the shower in the upstairs bathroom should be replaced. The porcelain tray has an approx 3 inch chip out of it and there is a big black spot and the shower door/panels is completely molded...kind of gross. Other than those two items, the house was great. I wish they hadn't drained the lake yet. I did look into this and understood that this didn't start until Sept but it was already low when we arrived. Might want to highlight this fact other than just note it buried in the print.

The cabin has good bones but many small maintenance tasks that would have made the cabin exceptional were left undone. Also, when booking, I inquired about lake water levels for the end of September, specifically the 26th through 29th and was told there was typically water at this location all year. However, the water level was low and the floating dock sat on dry land. To put our boat in, we had to travel to a public ramp in Dandridge, TN. From speaking to locals, the lake is drained on a schedule every year? If that is true, our host should have known too. MAINTENANCE/COMFORT: The shower water temp was kept too low, didn't get the feeling the cabin was cleaned much before our arrival - no smell of a clean environment, shower drain in downstairs bathroom loose, toilet paper holder fell off when putting on a new roll, kitchen sink water low flow, deck worn and in need of cleaning and staining, outdoor furniture in need of cleaning and staining, loose support bar in outdoor table, loose leg on one chair in dining room, surfaces of outdoor furniture dusty and dirty, floating deck in need of clean and stain, some screens torn out, unable to open downstairs windows for fresh air flow, entire cabin in need of a deep clean, didn't use jacuzzi or hot tub, right before arrival, received notification that we were to take 2 hours out of our time to test all in the cabin and report any issues - whoever is hosting this cabin should do this inspection, guests should not be expected to.
