Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Visit beautiful Dayton, Tennessee!

This basement rental is located in a neighborhood 3 miles from access to Lake Chic and the TN river (Dayton boat dock). Whether you are coming here to fish, visit the court house (and the Scopes Trial Play in July), competing at Ft. Bluff or visiting Bryan College, this house is conveniently located to each place. The driveway is large enough to handle 3 or 4 trucks pulling boats, and the back deck is huge (includes a gas grill). The kitchen is not a full kitchen, but a sink, refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, toaster and coffee maker are included as well as dishes and utensils.

I live upstairs, I am quiet, and park in front of the house so guests have the full driveway and back deck.

Six will sleep comfortably. No smoking indoors and no pets allowed. With more than six (not related) there are additional fees.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

We only got to stay one night (just passing through) but our experience was wonderful. The bedrooms were very roomy, and the beds were comfortable. My youngest liked there were some toys to play with, and the bookshelf was well stocked (sadly, we didn't have time to read any books). There were also plenty of DVDs throughout the property.The back deck was large, and it was a wonderful place to sit and look at the stars. This property wasn't fancy, but it was clean, and had everything a person, group or family would need to spend a few days exploring Dalton TN (for a town I had never heard of, it's very cute with lots to explore).Pat was a wonderful host, and answered questions quickly, and gave us lots of options for food (we ended up at 1st Ave Pizza). My only complaint is that the couch wasn't the most comfortable thing in the world, but that's a minor thing really.

Family getaway-

positives: Pat was wonderful to communicate with, prompt to reply to messages and very kind. The bedding was clean. The fridge is a good size. The location is beautiful and the amenities were accurate per the listing. Challenges: before arriving we had requested a dehumidifier in the unit. Pat was quick to assure us she would put one in, and she did. The problem arose when we got there and the dehumidifier was not turned on. The place was *very* musty and gave more than one of us a headache upon arrival. We understand that with humid climate there will be some dampness, this was more than “some”. The lights didn’t all work, so it was dark and hard to utilize the kitchenette. We did reach out to Pat and she said she knew about the lights but hadn’t had time for someone to come in a fix those and other repair needs she was aware of. The space was not very clean (spider webs, spiders, dirty floors, 2 cockroaches..). We were *not* expecting spotless by any means (our own home isn’t spotless) and we also understand a cleaning fee is added to the cost of a stay for a reason. We would kindly encourage a more thorough, detailed cleaning job. This space worked for the 2 nights we were in the area, though we would not book here again for our family. I want to reiterate that Pat was VERY pleasant to work with, the space itself would benefit from some deeper cleaning, better lighting and a consistent dehumidifier running.

We enjoy staying here. We would strongly suggest installing a dehumidifier or something like that to help with the moisture.

Great location close to boat launch

Little steep getting boat in and out of driveway but doable. Nothing fancy inside it's a basement type area so a bit on the dark side but it suited our needs and price so no complaints here .
