Why they chose this property
The boat is located in Volunteer Marina, a family friendly place just a short, easy walk to UT sports and downtown Knoxville.
What makes this property unique
You are literally ON the water. Staying on a houseboat is more than a place to sleep---it's an experience! You will enjoy peaceful water views, fresh air, and the relaxing "lake life" vibe the moment you step aboard. From morning coffee on the back deck or covered full length top deck-maybe watching the sunrise, to evening dinner and relaxing-watching the sunset. There is also plenty of interior space to relax, watch tv, or play board games. This is a one-of-a-kind stay that you won't get in a hotel or house.
