DISAPPOINTING DIRTY

To Whom It May Concern: This letter is concerning my family’s recent stay In Harriman, TN. The stay was at “Making Memories on Watts Bar Lake” 196 Bowers Road, Harriman, TN. Upon our late arrival shortly after dark we could not enter due to dead batteries in the door lock. After some time, our call was answered, and directions were given to the lock box which contained a key. Having to use the bathroom right away, a leaking toilet was discovered, and the floor was wet! A call was placed, and the toilet was repaired the next day. Repaired the toilet but did not put batteries in the door lock? The house was rented understanding that NO PETS yet there was dog hair in the living room and bedroom! Pictures show this. The dishwasher was full of dishes, the drawers in the kitchen were nasty and full of junk. The floors were dirty, and my socks looked terrible in just a short time! The sink in the front bathroom drips continuously. Downstairs has a terrible aroma, sewer or something. The Internet / Wi-Fi service was terrible, little to no service. Having to work while on the road is a necessity and it was advertised to be accessible. Moreover, and having two young boys ages 7 and 9 the graffiti on the front porch concrete was TERRIBLE!! The graffiti on the porch was porn!!

Lake front Heaven

Lakefront with dock allowed us to keep our boat in the water overnight. We were given the address and directions ahead of time, the house was clean and in good condition. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and coffee maker. Highly recommend staying here.

Poor communication and poor climate control

The location was great. The house was well kept and clean. Upon arriving the house was stuffy and hot. The HVAC System was set to heat and locked even though the temperature outside was warm. After multiple attempts to contact the property manager I finally got through the next day. The owners control the HVAC system and didn’t turn it until later in the second day of our stay. When they did the HVAC was not working properly and the home was very uncomfortable. I notified the property manager immediately. The property manager finally got back to me a day and a half later after we checked out. I wouldn’t stay there again.

What a view!!!

Great place that was everything we needed. We had two bass boats with truck/trailer and were able to swing in and park without unhooking. House was great for us. WiFi worked great if you didn't need to be on a video call (we work on the road). Definitely would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Jennylynn

TLC matches great privately-owned lakefront cottages on Watts Bar Lake to great lake-lovin' vacationers. We admit to being picky about selecting only the best, well cared for cabins on the lake. Our home owners take pride in the ownership of these second homes and do their best to keep their guests coming back year after year!

Why they chose this property

This home is perfect for the family with multi generations traveling together. It is ADA accessable and has a downstairs basement area that is made for entertaining!
