Douglas Lake is very peaceful. We enjoyed the scenery and sunsets. Ruby’s Lake House’s deck was where we spent most of our time - relaxing, eating, and watching the activity on the lake.

Lovely Mini-Vacation

Cabin was beautiful and clean, beds were comfortable, all amenities were acceptable. Only drawback was the roads we had to drive to get to the cabin. Lots and lots of twists and turns, to be expected in Sevierville, but did not expect this when going to the lake.

Hidden Gem

Our family loved staying at this lake house! It was clean or cozy just like home! A great place to stay only 30 minutes from Dollywood but tucked away from the hustle of the tourists. The kids enjoyed fishing everyday. We will for sure be back :).

Very cozy, well equipped cabin. Everything you need for a enjoyable vacation. A few minor things….had to sweep the cobwebs from the stairway and deck, poison ivy in yard… All questions were answered very quickly by management company.

Our stay at Ruby’s Lake House

We were at Ruby’s Lake House this was our second time there and it won’t be our last , me my wife and some family were together, it is such a pretty place. If there was a down side it would be the floating boat dock , the two sides were missing hopefully it was just a repair and not permanent. The booking agency was so kind and courteous . Plan to definitely book again in the near future . Don

Great Stay

Loved our time here. The boat dock and launch were perfect and close which made getting out on the water quick and easy. The only issue we had was with fruit flies. A call into the property manager helped take care of that along with some vinegar bowls placed throughout. Do be careful as there is a lot of poison ivy around the property. Will stay again.
