We rented one of several beautiful new waterfront homes in this Smoky Mountain Villa compound overlooking a surprisingly quiet and beautiful Douglas Lake. The house was spectacular - grander and roomier than the descriptions and photos implied. The view from the multi-storied, multi-windowed front wall (and from the semi-surround open porch) was just outstanding. The kitchen was very large and extremely well equipped. The adjoining dining space with a huge table handled all of us, but the tables on the porch were also popular. We took our 6 grandchildren (ages 9 to 14) and three of their parents, and had plenty of room - didn't even use one of the bedrooms! We gave the kids the lower floor with three bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and with the large game and TV/movie room; they were in heaven, as were their parents and grandparents on the upper two floors! The infinity pool and hot tub were beautiful and popular with our group, but swimming off the dock and using the provided kayaks and paddle boards were the most popular with our grandkids. Several also tried their hand at fishing, but had little luck (not a disappointment to their parents!). The provided cable and WiFi services handled all of our needs. We had a long list of activities we had planned to do in the area (Dollywood, white water rafting, hiking , boating and tubing, etc.) all of which worked out easily and conveniently, but we ended up cancelling several so we could spend more time around the house, pool and dock. Josh, the site manager was excellent and always available, but we never really needed anything. We'll definitely consider renting here again in the future.
