Our stay here was fantastic. The place was well-maintained and had all the amenities we needed, including a baby crib. The neighborhood was really quiet and peaceful.

Our property never stated there was a pool...maybe you were looking at another property and got us confused. 🤔This is a home in a quiet subdivision. We work hard to maintain 5-stars and to ensure our guests have a great experience.
About the host
Hosted by Cleves
Well hello there. 🙂 My name is Kristen and my husband Ralph and I live in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains in the extreme northeastern tip of the great state of Tennessee. We both grew up in the Tampa Bay Area but made this area part of our lives back in 2006. In addition to operating short-term rentals, we do coaching and training for mortgage loan officers to help them make more money working fewer hours. We love hiking, boating, winding two-lane drives in the convertible, and playing with our grandchildren. We work very hard to make our properties places where we would want to stay so that when you arrive, you'll have a warm and welcoming visit and be lacking for nothing. Welcome home! It is our privilege to host you. 🙂💖
Why they chose this property
Hundreds of thousands of people come to Atlanta for all kinds of reasons. When you travel, would you rather squeeze into a hotel room, pay through the nose to be immediately on the lake, or stay in a beautiful, spacious yet cozy home with lots of bedrooms and a fantastic living area, that's close to everything....especially if you're traveling with your family. This place is legit perfect for you.
