Pros:*Pet friendly!*Location was great, close to boat launch; quiet, secluded cove.*House was roomy, nicely decorated; ceilings fans appreciated!*Plenty of towels, extra toiletries.*Upstairs kitchen well stocked, including a slow cooker and Keurig.*Downstairs queen beds w/foam mattresses very comfortable!*AC worked well and stayed cold at night.*Downstairs de-humidifiers worked well, kept things dry.*Loved the deck and outdoor tables on upper level.*Gas grill was awesome, used it every day.*Loved the large, covered dock and swim ladder!Cons:*No closet downstairs to hang things or put things away.*Downstairs oven/stove was not hooked up, so not usable (also, no dishes or silverware downstairs.)*No reading lamps, so if you like to read in bed at night, bring a book light!*Outlets down at the dock did not work.*If you bring your own boat (like we did) be sure to drive down the hill to the lower driveway to turn around! No room to turn around w/boat on the upper driveway!Overall the four of us did enjoy our stay at this house on Lake Chatuge, and we especially appreciated that we could bring our dogs! We love the lake and it's getting harder to find pet-friendly places to stay there. It wasn't a 5-star place, but definitely a solid 4-4.5 stars, and we would certainly consider staying there again. Thank you!:)
