Great location

This cute place sits right on the lake. Beautiful views, quiet. Nice touches: Love the basket of cozy blankets; Game cabinet was a great surprise; Microwave is adorable!; Decor is excellent; Furniture in living room is comfy! Could use some end tables or ottoman for tv watching. When you go on vacation, you want all the comforts of home. This place fell short is just a few areas. The beds are extremely uncomfortable, unless you like really firm, or really springy. We ended up buying a mattress topper for our stay. The hot water pressure is very low, so showering was a challenge getting shampoo out. There were some minor housekeeping issues, but didn’t affect our overall stay. Evidentially in spring, the lake level is lowered, so enjoying the water wasn’t an option. Would I come back? With better beds, yes!

Beautiful location

Really awesome things: location! Views were incredible. Loved being able to kayak off the dock and we did frequently. Kitchen was well stocked. Beds were very comfortable. Liked having a full size washing machine and dryer. Someone else mentioned water pressure problems but we thought it was fine. The place is very tastefully decorated. Shops were only 15 minutes away. Has Netflix and fun board games. We left some playing cards for future guests. Things to improve: There were drain flies in the bathrooms and therefore all around the house. They were everywhere! Cleanliness: The floors, linens, sinks, and toilets were clean, but the fans, baseboards and windows were very dusty. Tons of bugs in the windowsills and screens. I get that it’s the south, but a vacuum to the closets, sliding door tracks, and windowsills would go a long way. The piles of dead bugs in the bathroom on the side of the sink and toilet were unsightly but we swept them up with a broom. Also, there’s no driveway and after a rainstorm there were a lot of puddles and mosquitoes. We had a great time though and the property manager was very polite and responsive. When the toilet wasn’t working, she sent someone right up and he fixed it that day. Also, the AC unit wasn’t working right when we arrived and she offered to have someone fix that (we just left it set to 72). Cherokee Lake is an amazing place and this house was good value to house a big group (5 adults and 2 kids).

Nice place

This was a nice place to stay. If you have a large group, it is well worth the money! The view is great, the indoor space is great, and the neighborhood is quiet. It does have low water pressure, but it was sufficient. I tried messaging them during the week and on the day of check-in, but no one responded. I would recommend this property to a large group that enjoys lake access.
