Family gathering

After two years apart due to covid we all gathered. Three generations celebrated 2 - tenth anniversaries and a fiftieth anniversary that occurred during 2021 and a seventh birthday while we were there. The layout of the house worked well and the view was spectacular any time of day. There was ample parking and many a scooter loop was made around the driveway. We hope to be back!

Super WOW!! I can't stop raving about this house, I'm definitely staying here again. We woke up and went to sleep to a beautiful scenery all around. So many sites to see but this home is sooo cozy and has so much space that we didn't want to leave. We stacked up on groceries for 8 days, the Walmart is about 12 minutes away. This home had extra of everything, linen, towels etc....the kitchen had all kinds of different cooking essentials, we love this home!!

Great for large groups

We had a wonderful time and rented both the main house and the cottage and it's a great place to accommodate many "sleepers" Nice to have the basketball net for the teens and the ping pong, etc. Used the floats for the water too! Plenty of supplies in the house so you don't need anything like paper products, etc. Owner is easy to reach and responsive to things you need! Love seeing all the deer feeding on the lawn and the trees too!

Family reunion

My family and I gathered here from states in every direction. We had a wonderful time. It was the perfect space for our five families. There is plenty of room to spread out and have some time to yourself or to all join at the table for some card games and dominos. The scenery is beautiful. The boat and beach access were just down the road and very convenient. Ashley was very responsive to any needs we had although there weren’t many at all. The home provided all of our needs for linen, bathing, cooking, and fun. The garage has several games to play for outdoor fun as well. Thanks again for having us at your lodge!

love this house!!!

This was my third time staying in this house, and for good reason. Ashley, the owner, is a wonderful host, and she's thought of all the things to make her guests feel at home. The kitchen is a wonderful place to cook, with high end cookware, all the gadgets, and a view to die for. If I had a view like that to eat my breakfast, I'd never leave the house. The beds are comfortable, and there is plenty of space to spread out. Visiting during the winter was totally fine, because we didn't mind being inside here. I will absolultely be stayin here again, and again, and again, any time I visit the area. Thank you, Ashley!

Pretty much perfect

Our family enjoyed the stay very much. The property had the bed space for 12 of the 14 of us with the other two using air beds to supplement. The kids had a great time in the garage with the ping pong, fooseball, and corn hole games. Truth is, even we adults joined in at times as well. Having that space included in the air conditioning is a huge plus. The only flaws in the property center around the bedroom on the main floor. This room has no drapes or blinds on the windows to block out the early morning sun. My wife and I used this room and that made it difficult to sleep beyond about 5:00 am. The second flaw in that space is that when we went to bed at night, we closed the door and that took away two of the five bathrooms for the rest of the family. A sliding door or even some drapes to close off the sleeping area from the hallway leading to the bathrooms would go a long way towards solving that problem. Otherwise this was a great place for our family gathering. There is plenty of space for all and we never felt cramped.

Gals of '74

This was our 3rd trip here and is perfect for larger groups. We typically have about 8 ladies but this year many could not attend due to issues NOT related to Covid-19 (Thankfully!). Social distancing made easy as each of us had our own bedroom and bathroom. The weather was unseasonably warm & we spent a great amount of time outside, beautiful lake view, fire pit aglow at night and gorgeous fall colors with magnificent sunsets. We enjoyed some friends who came to visit. We love the big kitchen and numerous dining areas for our Friendsgiving Dinner each Fall. We made a trip to Short Mountain Bible Camp where some of the girls attended when they were kids. The view from there was beautiful!

Our 2nd stay this year!!

We love this place and Ashley is great! The kitchen was perfect for our annual "Friendsgiving Dinner". We even invited the Rutherfords, friends from neighboring Riverwatch. We went to a fabulous barn sale near Sparta, watched movies, played ping pong (we need more practice), shopped numerous wonderful boutiques in Sparta & Smithville and we got our pics with a parrot at Harmony Ln. Farm & Creamery. Our weakness is the Foglight Foodhouse, a must for dinner every trip!! This home is ideal for us gals. Clean, extremely spacious, movies, books, ambience, tons of linens & throws, plenty of comfy beds, 4+ baths and a chef's dream kitchen. The fall colors outside & lake views were our favorite especially with evening cocktails. We stoked the bonfire most all weekend. We even had morning coffee while relaxing in the hot tub! Like going to a mini-Lake Tahoe! 5 STARS!!!!!

Excellent Location / Good Property

The property had plenty of large rooms to gather for Meals / games. Everyone enjoyed having all the large rooms to enjoy our time together. Plenty of bathrooms..... with large groups.... so important to have plenty of bathroom accommodations.... this place checked that box for sure in bedrooms / bathroom accommodation. The Kitchen has everything we needed.... again also open and convenient for everyone to move around and not be very crowded when cooking/prepping food. Loved the deck with the Lake view......Loved this place and would book again ! Couple of small things to check into regarding g the house prior to next family/ Group coming..... 1) Microwave wouldn’t always work..... outlets in Kitchen are not well connected to wall and could frighten people if plugging in appliances.... would check those out.. 2) Gas Grill has very low gas propane in the tanks.... we grilled 2 of the 3 nights..... we went and did an exchange at the marina for a full tank of propane gas. Also cleaned burners on the grill.....lot of burnt build up on the grill burners.....

Time Out to Refresh and Relax

Five senior women came to relax and enjoy the fall weather and view of the lake. There's not much of a view because of the overgrown trees.The outside looks uncared for. Not particularly welcoming. The house is very dark inside. Lighting needs attention. Hard to find wall switches and many don't work. Bad hall connection near upstairs bedroom. Kitchen is well stocked, and spacious. However, ceiling fan is coated with caked on dust. Certainly hasn't been cleaned in a long time. The house has a moldy or musty smell as though it hasn't been used or occupied in quite some time. One guest was congested by the smell. The back deck railing is in poor repair with rotting wood making it dangerous.There was no notification as to where we could find cushions for the outdoor chairs. We followed the check out rules but there was certainly plenty of old items in the pantry. And there was no trash can outside so we carried it home to be disposed of. When I was there 6 years ago it was a new listing and lovely. The owner needs to do some work to make it inviting to the guests. We had a good time because we were there for a quiet getaway but it would have been nicer if it were fresher and more inviting.

This home has ALL We Wanted plus extras !

All our wishes were granted here! Unlike the Smokies, we get 4 extra hours to relax! Day 1: Nice lunch at Smithville's Sundance, quaint shops on the square & dessert at Webb's Pharmacy till check in. Wow, lots of parking & level entry. Well adorned kitchen! Massive fridge, & an extra ice maker. Large inside dining sat us all & more room on the large deck. OMG, the view! Craft makers’ dream. Relaxed in rockers for cocktails. Loved the seclusion. Gorgeous flowering landscape. Laughed long & loud by the new fire pit. Beds were super comfy, a ton of closets, storage, linens, towels & 2 bedrooms access the hot tub! Day 2: Crafts, Burgess Falls, reading novels, & simply relaxing. We grew to 9 guests today, still plenty of sleeping room. Getting ready for dinner at the Foglight Foodhouse was a snap with 4 1/2 baths! (Go early for best seating, great food!) Day 3: We saw glass blowing, metal & wood working demos and bought pottery at the Appalachian Center for Crafts. Snow flurries arrived. So we all nested comfortably for movies in the big den with a nice fire & the ambience of this lovely Lake Tahoe inspired home. This gem bears quality craftsmanship throughout, views toward the lake in every room. The owners kept its glory plus all the upgrades! Another small den w/ TV is comfy for 5. A nice laundry room is near the enormous heated garage with ping pong, darts, bean bag toss & room for a car or a boat! Tons of cushions stored here for the inviting deck furniture. I saw only 1 chipmunk scamper to the lake & 1 mighty moose head impressively posed over the stairs. We can't thank Ashley enough for the best mini-vacation ever! She professionally ensures everything is "spot on" for our enjoyment. Superbly stocked, amenities abound, abundant quality kitchen-wares, extremely clean, & secure. All appliances, hot tub, TVs, internet worked great. She immediately responded to 2 items for maintenance later which didn't affect our wonderful stay. Much respect & appreciation to Ashley & her Tulip Tree Bay Lodge! Enjoyed all our conversations. We're boasting our fabulous experience, just save us a spot for our return! Lastly, we enjoyed Blue Water Grill for Sunday lunch. - We unanimously LOVE this place, - The Gals of '74

Spring break Family Style

Ok I will tell you the good and the bad. Starting with the good- The good- the size of the cabin and the view was perfect and amazing! Plenty of room for all of us and all our stuff. The view was amazing with a great size porch. Loved the location. Loved the basketball hoop and loved going for walks around exploring around the cabin. Bad- The pictures are definitely not current I took pictures but not sure if I will be able to post. When driving up the cabin looks stunning until your closer and the window coverings in both garage windows are ripped. Very simple fix but really changes your first impression of the cabin. We noticed a few things right away I messaged the owner and she was very fast to respond. I just didn’t want to be held responsible. She said the things would not be a issue. The toilet seat down stairs was halfway on (my dad fixed it not a big deal but when it’s added with rest slightly more annoying with the price we paid) The plug in the kids room was coming out of the wall and one in the kitchen also was. Definitely a safety issue. The toilet paper roll in the same bathroom was broke. Towel holder in the 1/2 bath is broke and looks awful on the wall. Simply removing it would make the bathroom look better. The fire place would not work I messaged the owner the first night and did not hear back for a few days when I did she asked if I would like her to send someone to look at it I said yes because we had rainy cool weather and really was looking forward to the fireplace but I never heard back after that. If it was not possible just letting us know would have been appreciated. The switches definitely should have a paper some where it took us for ever to figure out you had flip a switch out in the main living space to make the bed room lights work. Decore- If your looking for cabin mountain cozy decor that is not here. Nothing was wrong with the decor just not what we have seen with cabins we have rented in the past. We love the cozy mountain camping decor. Even a picture of their view in the living room would be stunning. We loved the hot tub but the cover was so water logged and looked awful and was difficult to move. Over all we had a great trip the stuff wrong did not affect us having a great time we were just bummed a lot of the stuff would be a weekend of simple repairs or updates and the cabin would be worth every penny.

18th Annual Friendsgiving Trip

This is the ideal place for our annual fall trip. This is our 4th visit, so that says how much we love this place. Plenty of room & amenities especially for cooking a big Thanksgiving meal. The weather, the fall foliage & the view from that deck were spectacular!! We love the additional ice maker & double ovens. We visited the Twisted Oaks for our 1st dinner (great service & food) and really enjoyed Smithville's 3rd Annual Pumpkin Festival on the town square. We met friends in Sparta for shopping and we highly recommend The Coffee Collective for a great caffeine break!! We can't say enough good things about the owner, Ashley. She's a fabulous host and makes our trips the BEST here!!
