Rental of the property was a smooth process. Amenities were good with plenty of sheets towels utensils grill all very nice. The property owner was accommodating, although we never had a reason to make contact during the stay he was available.
This was the perfect spot for our group of friends to stay and soak in the sun!We could see a bit of the lake from the house and the hills are gorgeous.House was clean and well kept! The neighbors have hummingbirds feeders out that attract a big group of hummers and was so fun to watch. The boat ramp is an easy short walk down the hill, there were plenty of spots to hangout and enjoy the lake, and swim.
Had plenty of beds and loved the screened in porch. Loved the two bathrooms. Nice master bedroom. Kitchen and oven a little small but was workable. Not far from lake with access. Roads are a little rough and small for pulling boats.
It was a cute little rental. My son caught some delicious fish right down by the boat launch. I especially LOVED THE SCREENED IN PORCH! only a 10 to 15 min drive to burgess falls state park. Definitely check them out the burgess falls are gorgeous and worth the little treck up and down to get there. Hank was very accommodating as well.
This is quaint, rustic 3 bedroom/2bathroom retreat in an eclectic neighborhood of second homes for water enthusiasts. The owner/host was accessible and graciously agreed to a late check out when we ran into a time bind. Although the neighborhood is fairly isolated, it is 4 miles or so from an active interstate exit with a Love's and other c-store options for whatever you may have forgotten or if you just dig Love's single serving coffe machines.
The place is an older structure but was decorated very nicely. The beds were incredibly comfortable. Water pressure and amount of hot water available was excellent. Supplies that I I expected to be available were not...no salt, coffee filters or soap in showers. We had a third of a roll of paper towels for a 10 day stay. We had to purchase toilet paper and paper towels as there was an inadequate or nonexistent back up. We had to wash the bathroom rugs because of how dirty they looked. The blow dryer in that bathroom is broken and held together with electrical tape. The worst part is the mildew smell. There were multiple scented plug ins throughout the home but only one had any liquid left in it. The smell is terrible. The road it is located on is challenging particularly at night. If you are looking for lake front activities this is probably a great spot, that was not of interest to us this trip. I had business in both Cookeville and Buffalo Valley, and I expected Baxter to be centrally located. This part of Baxter definitely was not.
Great little place to stay! Frank is really nice..
This place was a great location to Cookville Boat Dock. We took our 5 grandkids ages 3-10 , on their 1st fishing trip, on a Saturday.
House was very nice and clean. Lake is nearby for fishing. Beautiful screened in porch with a fan to be able to enjoy the outdoors with a comfortable breeze.
My uncle came to visit me and we needed a place to stay and do everything we enjoy. We had an amazing time. It was close to everything we needed. Kayaking, fishing, swimming, grilling, and a little needed R&R.
We had a great time at the lake house. Frank was super accommodating with my needs and the house was very clean. Great location and loved being so close to the lake. Would definitely book again.
This house has a nice eclectic style situated in a family-friendly locale. Great location for fishermen and kayakers. Lake swimming unsuitable near boat launch due to heavy rains and rising water during visit. Burgess Falls is beautiful but Window Cliffs was closed due to flooding. Cookeville boat dock is close by and you can rent pontoons and kayaks. It's a very scenic area. Our host was friendly and easily reachable. Only problem was TV remote in back bedroom wasn't working.
This is the second time my family and I have rented this property and we enjoyed it just as much this time around! Even with the heat wave, the porch stayed cool enough in the mornings and evenings to enjoy the beautiful view of the lake! The house was very clean and the owner left plenty of helpful instructions and notes. The neighborhood is very friendly and peaceful and it's an easy drive to Cookeville.
This was our 3rd summer renting Frank's vacation home and we just love it more and more each year. Frank is so easy to rent with, the house is so clean, and the house & location are just perfect for a lakeview vacation rental.
We love & look forward to going back every summer!
My husband & I have stayed here a few times, but this was the first trip there with family. It was a little tight inside for 6 adults, but it worked out just fine.
The house is always very clean and host is very responsive. Absolutely recommend & I hope that we can continue to visit this cozy little cottage in the future. My only suggestion might be a mattress upgrade, but itâs still much better than other places Iâve stayed in the area.
