This is one fantastic property! It was sparkling clean, easy to find, very very comfortable, and the right combination of quiet and charming. I've stayed at several properties around reelfoot but this one is my favorite by far! The hosts are super friendly and very accessible, and went out of their way to make our stay great! Highly recommend this property for your visit to the area!

The property was just as advertised. It was clean and had plenty of room for whole families. I really liked that they had ice for coolers. We had a wonderful time there. It was close enough to everything but far enough away that it didn't seem to busy. It was the perfect place for a get away.
