Labor Day Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Driftwood Cottage. The house was laid out very thoughtfully. Loved the screened in porch with the view of the cove. The neighborhood was very quiet & peaceful. The extra room with the floats was a plus. I would highly recommend this property!

Great location. Well stocked home. We rented a boat one day, so the dock was great. Would love to come back sometime when the temperatures are 10-15 degrees cooler :).

Loved our stay!

We enjoyed everything about our stay. Having two master suites with en-suite bathrooms was a huge plus. Kitchen was well equipped. The public boat dock was just around the corner so it was easy to access the water and tie up to the dock on property. Game night on the covered/screened porch was so enjoyable. We will definitely be back!

Loved the place. Very nice neighborhood on the water.

Property was just as represented and was clean and well furnished. Enjoying kayaking as well. Communication with the host was excellent and check in and check out was flawless. Although not a newer property- it was well maintained. A little remote, but easy to find and the drive was enjoyable and the location was central to our exploration of the area. I would stay here again and recommend to others.

Wonderful Lakefront Home

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the lakefront home on Fort Loudon Lake. While it was somewhat remote, out on an peninsula close to Friendsville, we were still able to get to restaurants, Historic Fort Loudon, and Maryville/Townsend/Lenoir City for antiquing. The home was as advertised and was very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!
