Great river location

It was a nice quiet spot on the river. The fishing was good just outside our door. The place was clean and nice. Close to town for groceries, other fishing spots and restaurants. It is nestled into a more industrial/commercial area, but once you are in the cabin, you don't really notice it. Great for a quiet get away or a fun fishing adventure.

Cabin is not remote, but easy to get to and close to everything. Kitchen is modern, internet is fast, TV works great, has heating and cooling. Way better than staying in a hotel.

Cabin on wattage river

Nice cozy cabin right on the river. Has just enough pots, pans, and coffee Kurig to make you comfortable. The only downside is the surrounding neighborhood and being next to a trailer park and a dog daycare kennel. We felt safe during our stay but could have been a nicer neighborhood.

Poor Communication

Owner canceled reservation on the morning of check-in via VRBO message which I easily could have missed. We weren't upset about the last minute cancellation...things certainly do happen outside the control of owners. We WERE upset that the owner did not give us the courtesy of a phone call. Had I not happened to see the message we would have gone to the property as planned and it would have ruined our vacation. When I messaged the owner saying he should have called with the last minute cancellation he replied that he was sorry I felt that way and that it did not warrant a phone call.

Horrible location

The location of the place was horrible. In the pictures it looked beautiful but it was actually horrible. I was hoping you can swim in the river by the way it looked in the pictures. The current was to strong. There was geese poop all over the place when you would out go walk. There was a dog keenel and another business we you drive in. That was not in the pictures they posted. Also we had people smoking weed all time of the day. The place was clean but the location was NOT.

River Cottage 3

Very well built and new looking. Surrounding area is camp ground, industrial business or dog kennel. Difficult to find initially, cannot be seen from the road behind a large industrial business and fenced lot. A sign or marker on the road would help. The cottage was not stocked, you will need to bring all toiletries, paper towels, condiments. The bath items included( towels) were very minimal, and would last two adults overnight and maybe one more day. Bring all your soaps, shampoos and other bath items you may need. The ductless air conditioning system may be difficult for persons not familiar with their operations. There were no manual or pamphlet to help explain the remote control for the air conditioner. The Wi-Fi is weak and will cause buffering on the ROKU TV and it’s streaming services. Multiple resets will be required. Also remember to bring extra trash bags or extra storage bags if needed, none were provided. Bring any basic food items required, items such as sugar, salt and pepper etc… Extra rolls of toilet paper and paper towels, if staying for more than two days. The lighting at night is poor in the parking areas or road/ driveway to the cottage. This is more a fishing camp than a weekend retreat or romantic getaway location. Privacy on your porch is very limited, it can be viewed from the other cabins located next door on both sides. The passing traffic on the river and camping grounds across the river directly opposite the front porch are in view.

Rental process and communication a breeze. The river is beautiful, but the neighborhood is not secluded and you can hear traffic noiise in the cabin. Overall a nice enough experience though. Still way better than a hotel!

Very nice new cabin that is right on the river. Very clean and had lots of amenities. Better than staying at a hotel for sure. Pretty easy to find once typing the address into Google maps and plenty of information given through e-mails about the stay.

First Time in Tennesse

This is a nice new cabin directly on the river, we were able to spend time with out sons and they're wives and our grandchildren, Having a drink on the patio while watching the kids play by the river was just what we were wanting when we planned this trip. And the Host was very accommodating. And out little pup had a great time, lots of roaming room.! Thank you, can't wait for out next trip.
