Our time at Driftwood Lodge was awesome. The property is located in a great location on the lake and it has a wonderful dock for tying a boat off to the house was well equipped, clean, and comfortable. Excellent property.
We had an AMAZING stay! The home is so comfortable and relaxing. We took the boat, and had some wonderful days out on the water, then enjoy sittin out listening to the crickets in the sceened in porch. The kitchen is beautiful and has everything you need, and of high quality. It's a very nice home in a very beautiful location. My experience with the owner was smooth and flawless. We are already planning our next visit
We had a great time ! The house is clean and very well-appointed. The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals. Beds are comfy and the views are incredible! We will definitely rent again!
A group of us (friends) came for a long weekend of music at The Shed. This place was PERFECT! The weather was nice, the lake was wonderful to wake up to. We didn't get a change to take anything out on the lake, but we did enjoy the dock for a bit. The beds were so comfortable, everyone came out the first morning and said the same thing, "I need to find out what that mattress is and I'm getting one!". Location was not bad, others complained about the curvy road, which it and it's very narrow at some points but we made the trip in and out over 10 times and it's really not that far or that bad. This was probably the most well stocked house I've ever stayed at, we brought extra trash bags, paper towels, utensils, paper plates, coffee filters, etc and didn't need any of it! Overall, every person in our group loved this house the most out of all the ones we've all stayed at together. We hope to be able to rent again for the next time!
Les points faibles : Communication et exactitude de lâannonce
Not Exceptional
This is a good property, but not Exceptional as listed. The drive off the the main road to the property is a 2 lane very curvy road that is very dark if traveling at night. There is a steep driveway leading down to the garage and parking. To get to the living area there are more steep stairs. The house is beautiful inside and the screened porch and lake view are wonderful. The house was not as clean as mentioned in other reviews. We had food left on the front steps leading into the house that was not thrown away. The carpets in the bedrooms had not been vacuumed. There are an extreme amount of cobwebs inside the garage, outside on the porches, and in the area where dock equipment is kept with a variety of type of spiders including a few black widows. The kayaks, life vests, chairs for the dock were covered in webs. We stayed in the Fall and had to listen to acorns hitting the tin metal roof during the night. We had no idea about this and the first night was very upsetting not knowing what the loud bangs hitting the house were. This lead to very disturbed sleep at night. We had a major problem with the BBQ on the deck. It caught fire on the inside when we were just heating it up for the first time. Turning the burners off, as well as the propane tank did not stop the fire. We had black smoke and fire coming out of the BBQ. Thankfully we were able to locate a fire extinguisher. Communication with the host was very minimal and did not address all questions.
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!
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!
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 :).
Location is very peaceful and we enjoyed relaxing on the screened in porch with a beautiful view of the lake on a quiet cove! House was perfect size for our group of 6. About 30-40 minute drive to downtown Knoxville and University of TN
Beautiful home, beautiful view, the cleanest rental home we have ever stayed at! Being able to use the garage was extremely helpful too! We would love to return to this home again!
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.
We stayed at this property for a long weekend as part of a family wedding.
Itâs a lovely property with a nice screened in porch overlooking the water. Itâs a bit secluded (~ 30 minutes from some shops and restaurants) but easy to navigate to these places.
The kitchen is well appointed but we suggest you bring some basic staples like salt, and sugar.
Overall we recommend the place.
Absolutely wonderful week! House is well furnished,stocked and linens are great quality. There was nothing missing amenity wise. Best kitchen provisions Iâve encountered in rentals with nice pots,pans and all utensils needed! Extremely clean and well kept! Truly enjoyed the kayaks and the view of the lake was gorgeous.
Very peaceful neighborhood and made for a really relaxing week. Very welcoming house and host communicates extremely well. Would most definitely rent again!!
Thank you Laura for a wonderful getaway!!
This is our second time staying at this location. We absolutely love it. It has everything a family could need when looking for a getaway from busyness of life.
