Wonderful Family Vacation!
My family of 16 (4 generations!) stayed over a 4 day weekend and this house was perfect. We had 10 adults, 2 teens, and 4 littles, ages 2-4! We loved the open floor plan, and still had plenty of quiet space, including the 2 different outdoor decks, the firepit area, and in the private bedrooms. Upon our arrival, we had a couple of issues (our wifi wasn't working and the oven wasn't working), but we contacted Tom, who responded right away. My hubby had accidentally unplugged the wifi/router in the bedroom, and Tom replaced the entire stove/oven unit with a brand new one first thing in the morning. We all felt that he went out of his way to make sure that our stay was wonderful. We had gorgeous weather and a wonderful family vacation at this location! Thanks so much Tom!

Waters Edge - Family reunion
Waters Edge was a great property for our 5 family reunion. Each family had a room and comfortably accommodated over 20 people with the addition of an occasional sleeping bag. The lower level deck was great and the hot tub did not disappoint. The location is easy to navigate too and the roads are very doable. There is limited parking (3 cars max). The steps to the lake are deceiving: 83 from the bottom floor of the house, 97 from the top. The dock is protected and good for swimming/floating, especially for small children. Access to the kayaks was nice, but 2 have holes in them and almost sank causing a real issue getting them out of the water. The proximity to neighboring docks/families slightly detracted from the family gathering. The dock is also not very big to allow a large group to just "hang out." The slip is also limiting related to height. Boats with a wake tower will not fit into it without taking down the tower (if possible). Getting to the main channel is easily a 10 minute (each way) non-wake producing ride which also takes time away from skiing/tubing. The listing notes a commercial ice maker and access to the lower closet with a separate code. Neither of those were accurate. Tom Strum's group manages many properties. When we asked about these two items, there was confusion as to which house we were in. That said, they were very receptive and quick to remove the rental boat that was occupying the slip when we arrived.

Fabulous place to stay with family
Well-appointed vacation home was perfect for our family visit. We enjoyed boating, fishing, toasting marshmallows at the fire pit, and soaking in the hot tub. I loved cooking dinners for our large family to enjoy together in the spacious dining area. The property manager was immediately available to help us overcome a few unforeseen incidents. Highly recommend!

Expected More
House was very clean, direct lake access with covered dock, Management/ owner was very responsive to all text, Harbor/boat ramp was very convenient just up the road. First impressions mean allot, driveway access very narrow and almost hidden, parking almost non-existent. When we approached the home all five trash cans where over-flowing and trash on top of them, contacted owner and he sent someone out to pick it up, who said he usually picks up on Saturday - this was Thursday. Inside living room rug was torn and frayed which kid tripped over, while stocking refrigerator door shelving cracked/broken, ice maker didn't work, choose this lake house over cheaper ones because it listed a hot tub - upon trying to use was not heating, needs repair and unusable. Manager offered another properties hot tub 4 doors down (not very convenient in 40 degree night temperatures with rain). Owner / Manager was advised and acknowledge all the listed defects via text messages. In farness, the parking issue is listed on property description and if this where all the issues we had our review would be much different. For the cost we had expected more, very disappointed for the amount of money property needs some TLC.

Lots of technical trouble
It was a beautiful place but we had electrical issues. The electricity went out for about 24hrs. It’s a long steep stair walk to the dock. The trash cans were full when we arrived. But the manager was very helpful and kind. Just had some issues with the place that was no one’s fault

Very pleased with manager who addressed our minor issues rapidly and professionally. The thing I most liked about the property was the location. We were impressed with how well the kitchen itself was stocked with cooking pots and pans, dishes, silverware and all the stuff to run a full kitchen. The rooms were nice and comfortable. .The master bed was very comfortable. There were a lot of steps down to the very nice dock. Parking was very tight for four vehicles (3 suv and a small car). No land line telephone on properly for emergencies and our cell phones had no service (T-Mobile).

Great Family Vacation Home
Overall, we had a great stay. The home was very clean and well kept. There was plenty of space throughout the home. The decks were very nice for entertaining. The stairs were the only difficult part for the little ones, however, we knew when booking that there were a lot of stairs. Also, being in partial mountains it is expected! The lake was beautiful! The kayaks were nice to use. We rented a boat for one day from the marina right down the road. It was a great experience. Definitely recommend for families looking to visit Tennessee.

Our Stay at Flat Hollow
Our family was glad to have the opportunity to be together during the week between Christmas and New Year. The house provided ample space to be together, both inside and out. The hot tub was a hit, and we had a great time around the fire pit roasting marshmallows one night! One challenge for those of us over 40 was the number of stairs and access to the boat dock, but being winter, we didn’t make the trek often. We were in contact with the host a few times and he was always very responsive. A real plus!

My only reservation would be returning with young kids or anyone with disabilities. Getting to the dock and the very bottom of the stairs was a little challenging.

Beautiful Home
We love the home and the property manager was so nice and accommodating. The biggest issue with the home was the parking. It was very inconvenient to drive others to park about 10-15 minutes away. Other then that it was great with plenty of room to host 16 women. The 4 levels in the house was great for dividing them up by personality.
