River Rest | Kayaking, Hiking & Close to Smokies

Place was clean. House was very responsive.

It was fine for a night. It doesn’t have a bathroom sink need to use kitchen sink to brush teeth etc.

Not sure how this property got all 10 on reviews. We are not picky people but do expect some basic items. For instance, the propane tank did not light for the outdoor fire pit (disappointing), nor was the view of the river great. Big bushes blocked the view. The front door had a SMALL blind that left 2-3 inches of it not covered! There was no hot plate for cooking even though there was utensils and pots. There is absolutely NO STORAGE for luggage or other items, no shelves or hooks except 2 small hooks to hang up your clothes on. Hard to do that with clothes on hangers and wet towels. When we pulled out the TWIN sofa bed, not full as listed, it was covered with lots of pet hair. The window ledge in the living room area was stained from water. The mirror had a crack in it. As for the positives that kept us from giving a lower score, it was basically clean. It is convenient to local areas and the price was fair. Not sure you are getting a good value who cleans for 75 though for reasons stated above. Definitely not a place for 3 as stated as only 2 STOOLS to sit on besides a half couch. This could be a lot better accomodation by fixing the items listed.

Relaxing Positive: Clean and very organized Quiet place Negative: Had to drive 20-30 min daily for activities

Wonderful spot for a couple and their pet! (singular) we had a minor mixup and booked before confirmation that two dogs would be permitted but were able to come to an agreement with the host and our stay was lovely.
