We had a great stay on Angie's houseboat. It was very clean, well stocked and comfortable. The location was perfect for sailgating before the Tennessee game and just a short walk from Neyland Stadium. We'll definitely stay here again.

Angie was an amazing host and very responsive! We had never stayed on a house boat before so she took us through everything with needed to know. The house boat was very clean, cozy, and functional. Having the golf cart was a fun bonus! Spent a lot of time on campus and at Calhoun's. I definitely want to stay here again.

I have rented over 50 VRBOs and ARBNBs and Angie was the greatest host ever. She met us there, walked us through everything. She stocked the fridge with water, had snacks for us, and made us cup cakes. In addition, She provided us a golf cart to use. I recommend this property amd using any property Angie owns. Best host E V E R!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality and for sharing your cozy, charming, and clean houseboat with us. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much love and care you’ve put into creating such a special place, and we felt right at home.We had the most relaxing and comfortable stay. Waking up on the water, enjoying the peaceful surroundings, and simply slowing down for a few days was exactly what we needed. Your thoughtful touches, attentiveness, and kindness made our experience even more special.Thank you for making our time on your houseboat so unforgettable. We leave with wonderful memories and grateful hearts, and we hope to return again someday.

Our stay was amazing. We came for the Savannah Bananas game and it was perfect to be able to be to walk to the stadium. The host allowed us to check in early, which was wonderful. We really enjoyed the houseboat experience something our kids will definitely remember. Even though we had some rainy weather it didn’t ruin our stay. The accommodations were exceptional. It was clean and it had everything that we needed. We enjoyed the Kayaks as well. Wonderful host.

Angie was super informative as she walked us thru the houseboat and showed us all the amenities! Kitchen was plenty stocked, patio decks and inside was beautifully furnished. Loved the golf cart, very handy! We absolutely enjoyed our stay on the houseboat, fishing and hanging out on the top deck. Will 100% contact Angie the next time we come to Knoxville. No issues whatsoever!! Thank you Angie for such wonderful accommodations, so much better than a hotel room!

House boat vacation

This house boat is a 10 out of 10 and I'd recommend it to anyone that want's to stay on a boat verses a cabin. This was our first experience staying on a house boat and it was an awesome stay. Our host Angie was so welcoming and helpful in letting us know what was available to do in the area.
