Property and neighborhood was great and as advertised. Communication was first rate and the golf cart and the paved path to the lake and marina added a great flare. You are within 20 minutes to everything you would want to do as a tourist. Great- wifi, flat screen tvs.

Lake cottage
My brother and I stayed at this adorable lake cottage. Everything in ad was as described. The Holiday Landing Marina was not what we expected, restaurant was closed for the season. We ended up renting a pontoon boat with our TN friends at Tims Ford Marina (slightly bigger and open) and was a short drive from cottage. We did not see any walking trails from the back yard (as it appeared on map). Other than that we had such a great time and very comfortable staying at this lake cottage.

Lake life living
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was exactly as advertised and served as a wonderful place for us to hangout and spend quality time together after a day on the lake. Well appointed, great location and easy access to the marina via the complimentary golf cart and driving path. Check-in and check-out was a breeze and communication was excellent. We highly recommend this property and are all ready looking forward to our next visit.

Relaxing Stay
Great house, decorated so cute! Everything was there for an enjoyable and relaxing weekend stay. Highly recommend for a retreat near Tims Ford Lake. Golf cart was convenient to get down the hill to the marina. We look forward to returning when restaurant opens for the season!

Excellent Place for Family Trip
We stayed for Thanksgiving week at the Porter property and were quite pleased with the space and the quality of the interior. I looked at several properties from this area and was quite glad I chose the one because it is a new development and they are still building down the street. There was construction going on that would have been quite loud in other locations but we were not bothered at this particular property. It was cold and we were not able to use the water area but there were plenty of things in the golf shed that would have been fun to use in warmer weather. The golf cart does make the steep trip to the Marina easy. The interior was decorated very nicely and my kids loved the outdoor screened area with a fireplace and TV. Even though it was 40 and below, they were very warm by the fire. There were plenty of linens, nice fast washer and dryer and a dollar store about 6 miles away that stocks quite a bit. Two grocery stores--Krogers and Publix are about 20 minutes away. We loved the local Celtic Coffeehouse and the Water Chocolate. Other favorites were Freddies for wings and Piggies for barbeque. Tom's Ford State park was nice for hiking and free. We also went to the Old Stone State Park for a ranger hike (they offer all kinds of programs there). We also visited The Caverns (about 1 hour away) for a tour. This is a very nice location in the are and easy to drive to see a variety of things.
