    I want to thank the owners of the home and the host Jenny. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed the lake very much. Did some fishing and a lot of relaxing. The yard and grounds are so pretty and well-maintained. The house is very outdated inside, which may be a problem for some people, but it really made me feel nostalgic. For a simpler time when we didn’t have cell phones or the Internet. It’s funny but the out of date decor made it feel like a real vacation, like we’d gone back in time and could just enjoy ourselves at the lake and not worry about our responsibilities. The bed I slept in, was very comfortable in the master. And the house is well equipped with everything we needed. Except a carrot peeler! Hahahah. We won’t hold it against you! Thank you again for hosting us! I would definitely return.

    We all had a lovely week with local friends. The biggest draw was the dock which we went to daily to swim and play. My dogs had so much fun as well. We saw wildlife daily. Foxes & deer. It was an amazing time. I really appreciate the hosts being so responsive and flexible with us!

    To Whom It May Concern: This letter is concerning my family’s recent stay In Harriman, TN. The stay was at “Making Memories on Watts Bar Lake” 196 Bowers Road, Harriman, TN. Upon our late arrival shortly after dark we could not enter due to dead batteries in the door lock. After some time, our call was answered, and directions were given to the lock box which contained a key. Having to use the bathroom right away, a leaking toilet was discovered, and the floor was wet! A call was placed, and the toilet was repaired the next day. Repaired the toilet but did not put batteries in the door lock? The house was rented understanding that NO PETS yet there was dog hair in the living room and bedroom! Pictures show this. The dishwasher was full of dishes, the drawers in the kitchen were nasty and full of junk. The floors were dirty, and my socks looked terrible in just a short time! The sink in the front bathroom drips continuously. Downstairs has a terrible aroma, sewer or something. The Internet / Wi-Fi service was terrible, little to no service. Having to work while on the road is a necessity and it was advertised to be accessible. Moreover, and having two young boys ages 7 and 9 the graffiti on the front porch concrete was TERRIBLE!! The graffiti on the porch was porn!!
