Luxe House @Smoky MTN Lakeside

TrenekkaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
I rented this for my Mom’s 70th bday girls trip & we all LOVED it! The ladies played in the gameroom, were in the hot tub, & had no complaints with their bedrooms which says a lot being that they were part of the ‘seasoned’ age range & are very particular. Alicia was very responsive when the wine fridge went out & brought us a chilled bottle of champagne for our birthday breakfast mimosas. Plus this place was literally two turns away from the exit & was so easy to find. You are right on the lake with beautiful peaceful views but just about 30 mins away from the action at Pigeon Forge. I would definitely stay here again with no hesitation! Thank you Alicia for making my Momma’s birthday such a memorable one 🫶🏾

Incredible Views 2 bedroom in Gatlinburg Falls

DennisRating, 5 stars5 days ago
We came down for the weekend and the first thing everyone said as they entered the cabin was “wow”. It was very spacious and well laid out. The favorite spot for our family was the downstairs “playroom“ which was well equipped with a pool table, air hockey and arcade like game tables. We spent hours there playing- great family time. There were two large decks with comfortable chairs and the lower deck has a large hot tub. The cabin is beautiful, the location is great and the host, Chester, was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely recommend this place to all my family and friends.

Beauty Close to Pigeon Forge attractions!

RandallRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Absolutely beautiful view! Sunrise is amazing and definitely is worth getting up for to enjoy with a coffee. Hot tub was nice and clean, the ladybugs were definitely in full force but you can tell they spray for them because they were dead everywhere, there is a broom avail if they bother you which is what we did. The drive up to it is paved and managable but STEEP. Wonderful place to stay, great overall layout, well thought out with all the things youd expect with an experienced host.

Luxury/prime location/Cottage/near Dollywood

DaynaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The cabin was perfect for our stay, it was walking distance to the convenience store and trolley stop, which brought us right to the back gates of Dollywood for $3 each. It was clean and we felt safe, my kids loved soaking in the hot tub first thing in the morning and after a cold day out and about. It was actually a very CLEAN hot tub that we felt comfortable using, which seems to be rare with Airbnbs! Could smell the chlorine and water was clear :) Shower has a tub if you need for kids. And the air hockey was a huge hit. My kids also loved the Christmas tree. Thanks again for sharing your space with us and we hope to be back soon.

If you’re looking for a perfect place for a mountain retreat, then this place is it! Kirk was a wonderful host who provides numerous amenities as well as clear information. My siblings and I talked about how nice the place is and how there’s many different spots for people to have alone time. You never feel on top of each other even when it rains! Highly recommend!

Private Lakefront Retreat on Douglas Lake

RobertRating, 5 stars4 months ago
The place was lovely. We had a great time. The kids really enjoyed all the available games (and hot tub) on site. We had a group of 7 which was comfortable however wouldnt recommend more as the home is on the more quaint side. The view was unmatched and being at the end of the street gave such a sense of privacy. While the home is "off the beaten path" the additional time needed to get there from the attractions were well worth it. The home had everything needed for our stay which was such a relief when it came to packing. I would recommend the home to anyone looking to stay in the area but would like some privacy and easy access to the lake. Thank you for the amazing hospitality.

Lake Front Lodge & Chalet - Sleeps 24

LissaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Could probably use a different cleaning crew. However, the place was lovely! Location great, property, beautiful & peaceful. The beds were great, clean, & plentiful. The owners couldn’t have been more accommodating, & friendly. Even the lake itself was larger & more beautiful than I expected. I would definitely stay there again.

“Unforgettable Sunrise” on Douglas Lake/ Smoky Mt

EdgarRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
10/10 rental, My family and I stayed for the week of Thanksgiving and we all loved the space, the quietness, and cleanliness. It is very close to Gatlinburg, Sieverville , and Pigeon Forge. We are definitely considering coming back for the summer time to get full use of the dock and lake behind the home. Michelle was a great host and very responsive and respectful of our rental time there. The friendly neighborhood dogs guarded the front door throughout our entire stay! We felt right at home. If you’re looking for an air B and B rental in the area, look no further!

Gone Fishing in the Smokies

CrystalRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Our family of seven spent our Thanksgiving at Lynda's. We loved the back porch views! My kids (old and young) enjoyed the variety of board games. I brought spices to cook our Thanksgiving meal and didn't even need to. She had plenty of spices and utensils. Not a big deal to some, but to me, it's the little things like that that made me feel right at home and a huge reason to choose an Airbnb over a hotel that doesn't offer any of those things. The home was very clean and accommodating. Plenty of extra pillows and blankets, storage for unpacking and stowing away luggage for the "right at home" experience. We brought our dogs and she already had leashes hanging by the doors. The wood burning fire place offered a cozy feel. The men loved the outdoor fire pit. The only disappointment was the lake was dried up which wasn't expected according to the photos. The men brought their poles and gear and were looking forward casting out. Overall great experience and definitely recommend!

Your guide to Douglas Lake

Welcome to Douglas Lake

Like many of the state’s major bodies of water, Douglas Lake is a man-made reservoir that was the result of the Tennessee Valley Authority creating the Douglas Dam from the French Broad River in the 1940s to provide hydroelectric power and help with flood control in the Tennessee River Valley. Renowned for its fishing — it’s one of the top spots in the nation for largemouth bass and crappie, thus drawing major fishing competitions to the area — Douglas Lake is 45 minutes’ drive due east of Knoxville, a magnet to its sparkling waters in warmer months for weekend warriors from the city as well as out-of-state vacationers. Covering more than 28,400 square acres of surface area, the lake straddles Hamblen, Cocke, Jefferson, and Sevier counties, and is also conveniently positioned for Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park — an easy day trip if you’re looking to get away and out of the water. Dandridge is the largest town along the lake, while Baneberry is one of Douglas Lake’s big vacation rental hubs. Newport, just south of the lake, also has numerous cabin rentals.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Douglas Lake

With Tennessee’s relatively mild climate, May through October are prime months for enjoying Douglas Lake. While summers bring in throngs of people, the lake is large enough to accommodate crowds without feeling like you’re vacationing with strangers. Fall is gorgeous and, due to the elevation in East Tennessee, tends to arrive earlier in this part of the state than the rest, with the leaves hitting peak color in early-to-mid-October. Some attractions are only open seasonally in the summer months, while others, such as the Forbidden Caves, have a slightly longer season from April through November. Winter can be cold and gray, but on the plus side, the annual Smoky Mountain Winterfest Celebration illuminates Sevier County’s Parkway with more than five million lights from mid-November through mid-February.


Top things to do in Douglas Lake

Forbidden Caverns

One of Tennessee’s defining features is its cavernous topography, which can be explored subterraneously via any of the state’s many caves that are open to the public. Centuries ago, the Eastern Woodland Indians used the Forbidden Caverns as a water source and for shelter in the winter; later, moonshiners concealed the fruits of their labors here. Today, you can take a guided tour to see the grottos, stalactites, stalagmites, and other cave features for yourself.

Foothills Parkway

A project in the works for the better part of a century, the Foothills Parkway will eventually serve as a 72-mile-long scenic road on the perimeters of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Currently, you can pick it up in nearby Wears Valley and drive the completed section to Walland for picture-perfect glimpses of the Smokies in all their glory.

Tennessee Museum of Aviation

This 50,000-square-foot museum specializes in World War II warbirds with a healthy collection of military vehicles, trainers, fighter jets, helicopters, and amphibious aircraft. Take a self-guided tour through aviation history via the facility’s educational exhibits and knowledgeable docents.
