About this property

Lake Home w/ Dock Fishing, Firepit, Spa. 20 min to Downtown UT Airport Windrock

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay on Melton Hill Lake. Ideal for Family getaways and gatherings, private relaxing time, base camp for exploring east Tennessee (Windsock Off Road Park is 15 minutes away, Smoky Mountain National Park is 45 minutes away), and work trips. Conveniently located within 5 minutes of Oakridge, 10 minutes to Farragut, and 20 minutes to Downtown Knoxville and the Airport.

This Basement Ranch has 3 Bedrooms and 2 Full Baths, the Master Bedroom and other 2 Bedrooms all have queen beds. There is also a living room, Dining Room-Office, Kitchen, and a Large Family room that has a queen sleeper and 2 sleeper (twin size) chairs. The Kitchen is well equipped with cookware and most everything you would need to fix any meal.

On the exterior, there is a front balcony style porch. The back of the house features Upper and Lower deck/ porches. We just added a brand new hot tub In March 2022! It sits in the covered patio at 101 degrees. The house is right on the water so it is excellent for Kayaking, canoeing, SUP (Stand Up Paddle board), water sports, and fishing. We offer 6 kayaks, 2 SUPs, all the paddles and lifevests and 2 Mountain Bikes for our guests use. Some of the best fishing in Tennessee is right in this lake! You can also enjoy a campfire at the fire pit with Adirondack chairs.

We offer 6 kayaks, 2 SUPs and 2 Mountain Bikes for our guests use. We also have 13 - one size fits all lifevests and 2 helmets.

Pets are allowed on a case-by-case basis with a pet fee. There is a fenced in are about 50' X 70' with 2 gates for access to the pet. To access it, you will go outside the Sunroom door (opposite of the deck) and walk about 15 feet to the gate. Please keep your pet leashed until inside of the fenced in area.

We supply a starter set Coffee, Dish Soap, Laundry Soap and Hand Soap in addition to TP, Paper towels and a complete set of towels and linens for your whole stay.

You have access to the whole 1 acre of property, the lake, front house and the Sunroom. There is a back in-law quarters that is not accessible at this time, it is the owner’s area. We do not typically stay in the house while there are guests, however, if we have a contractor or a delivery coming in (like the hot tub added in March 2022), we do stay, but will give notice to the guest as soon as we find out.

There's a two minute video on youtube of the house. Title: The Lake house-Knoxville The bar, fireplace and wood paneled part of the house is the owners area, guests do not have access to these areas.

For the security of our home and the safety of our guests, there are 5 total cameras for surveillance. There is a Ring doorbell and 4 other cameras for security.
*Monitoring the Driveway.
*Monitoring the Garage/Laundry/Supply area.
*Monitoring the Lake/Boat from the patio.
*Monitoring the Fenced in dog area.
We are not intrusive and want you to enjoy your stay, we've positioned the cameras away from the interior of the home. Unfortunately, security these days are a necessity and we have to protect our home. Thank you for understanding.

Above expectations! Great Stay!
This short review would not be able to tell of how nice and relaxing the house and stay was. The check in and during our stay Ms. Tracy has been helpful and available if needed. The quiet neighborhood, lake in the back and birds were enjoyable. The house was clean, organized and well stocked. The coffee was very convenient and the zip lock bags were helpful on checkout. The place was clean and immaculate. What a bonus the kayaks were, my son and I took 2 out on the beautiful lake. The 2 bikes the kids used on the long driveway. The beds and couches were comfortable, the video arcade game and board games were added bonuses as well as the living rooms just relaxing with family. It was a very nice stay and we would stay there again. We were in town to visit Temple Baptist church and Crown College for a move and this home was a nice base to go exploring. Little Ponderosa Zoo in Clinton is highly recommended to visit. Thankyou so much again to Tracy !

Great getaway!
Perfect getaway with water up all year round. Good fishing even in December (caught perch and a striped bass). The most organized VRBO place we have stayed. A lot of little extras such as a stocked coffee bar (with a Keurig), fire starters for the fire pit, and marshmallow sticks. Beds were very comfortable. Highly recommend this place.

Move to Tennessee
My daughter and son- in-law moved from Dallas to Tennessee for his job. We helped them with the move and stayed longer to see Tennessee. The house was beautiful and wax supplied with everything you needed. I would definitely stay at this house again!

About the host

Hosted by Tracy Schuyler

Host profile image
The Lake House is our retirement house! We were lucky enough to find this gem a few years before we retire. We are renting out the house for others to enjoy and have great family memories before we live in it full time.

Why they chose this property

The property is beautiful and the area quiet. The Lakehouse is close to everything, shopping/food/entertainment and hospitals. The area is also safe, it's on a quiet road that is safe to walk, listen to birds and see small wildlife.

What makes this property unique

The Lake house is so unique, there are 2 separate houses that have been seamlessly made into one! The first house put on the property, (Owners area, not accessible to guests) was originally built in Oak Ridge in 1948 and brought to this location at a later time. The second house was built in 1977 and also brought in from Lovell Rd about 6 miles away. Then in 2004 the previous owners had the Sunroom built to make one house. The Lakehouse is special, neither house was built on site and yet, the house is seamlessly beautiful!
