This lakeside retreat is such a treasure! Susan and her husband are very friendly, and the communication was excellent. This property is gorgeous, and the amenities are fantastic!! Plus, you are just a 15-minute car ride from Melton Hill Marina, so if you rent a boat, it's an easy 30-minute boat ride back to the house on the lake. Great place to recharge, enjoy nature, and quality time with family by the lake.

The Lake House Retreat is a perfect vacation spot for family and friends. The house has an amazing view of the quiet lake and provides outdoor locations on a deck, covered patio, fire pit and the dock. The house is impeccably clean and comfortably furnished. The owners have gone out of their way to make sure guests of all ages are welcome. They provide a crib and high chair (which came in very handy for us.) In addition there are games for all ages including air hockey, foosball, and Ms. Pacman. The owners, Susan and Terry, were amazing. The were very responsive to all my questions both before and during the trip. They went above and beyond to provide a variety of amenities to make our stay amazing. My family loved spending time on the dock and paddle boarding using the equipment provided by the owners. The amazing coffee bar was a also great hit, and it was stocked with a wide range of options to meet the variety of hot beverage tastes of my family. The Lake House Retreat was the perfect place for my family to rest, relax, and spend time together. We all had plenty of space to be in the kitchen together and had wonderful meals gathered around the huge dining table. I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful place to stay as we were celebrating my daughter's wedding. Susan and Terry have created a beautiful, welcoming, and comfortable house. It was a home away from home for us and made this special weekend even more wonderful.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Seaman

Host profile image
We are Terry and Susan Seaman, and we live in Knoxville. My husband is an avid water-skier and has been skiing on Melton Hill Lake for over 50 years. We have very special memories on this property and invite you to make some of your own!

We love hosting and have a long history of hospitality - from hosting huge family gatherings to running our home as a temporary Bed & Breakfast during NASCAR weekends when we lived near Bristol, TN.

Why they chose this property

Melton Hill is very quiet compared to other area lakes, and yet it's close enough to be totally accessible to Knoxville.

What makes this property unique

Beautifully decorated. Peaceful and quiet. Plenty of parking.
