✔️Amenity Disclaimer
Our cabins are packed with entertainment, arcades, gaming systems, theaters, and more which are designed to make your stay unforgettable. We work hard to ensure everything is in great working order prior to your arrival.
However, with the high volume of amenities, occasional issues can happen, sometimes due to prior guest use or unexpected malfunctions. Please understand that refunds are not available for non-working amenities, but our team will always do everything possible to resolve any issues quickly. In some situations, repairs may require parts to be ordered, which can extend repair times.
✔️ Important Lake Information:
Our property sits on a beautiful TVA-managed lake, where water levels naturally rise and fall throughout the year. During drought conditions in the region, lake levels will be lower than normal. If that happens the dock may not be fully floating, and boat access directly from the dock may be limited until levels return to approximately 983–984 on the TVA gauge. We appreciate your understanding that lake conditions are naturally occurring and outside of our control.
