Absolutely Stunning!
Rocky Top Falls is a special place! The hosts are such awesome people and we enjoyed every second of our stay. We even got to take some photos of my niece in her stunning homecoming gown. AND the sunsets and sunrises are absolutely beautiful and must be seen in person! Don't hesitate to grab up a overnight stay here, fun family weekend gathering, or the absolute best - a one of a kind venue for your own perfect wedding or event!

Exceeded Expectations
For someone who tends to be disappointed with the cleanliness of most hotels and rentals, this was a pleasant surprise. The whole house was clean and comfortable. What a blessing when you’re trying to enjoy time away from home! Jennifer was so easy to work with. Great communication. Responded quickly. She answered all my questions, made suggestions for food and recreation, and made both check-in and check-out such a breeze. The bike shed was really helpful. The record player was fun. And the house had all the conveniences of home with a coffee pot, dishwasher, disposal, washer and dryer, WiFi, smart TV, fresh linens, everything we needed! The only reason I gave four stars on “location and neighborhood” is bc I got a little nervous the first day we pulled in. The neighborhood kind of left something to be desired. And when we got to the house, the yard was overgrown. So I was worried what the inside would be like. But once we got in there, it was totally true to its description and reviews! And we had a great time. We just let the front yard contribute to the treehouse feel of the backyard which was beautiful and peaceful and lovely. I wouldn’t have even mentioned it if it hadn’t asked me to rate the neighborhood. We would definitely stay here again!

Pure Delight
Really Nice!! We loved our stay. It was all we could ask for. The kitchen was fully stocked anything you wanted including an Insta Pot (which I used). Really nice pots and pans and a induction cook top. Which I had never used before. Loved have one ordered for my kitchen smile ☺. Also ordered the same pots and pans they had. They worked great! If your a cook you will love it! The fishing was great! right off the shoals by the cabin. We caught and released sooo many!!Mostly rainbows and a couple of browns.There is a local ground hog that comes up on the bank every morning. We saw eagles and enjoyed the peacefulness. It is very quite there. Fires in the evening inside and out were fantastic. We brought our own wood but the owners did supply one time wood for the outdoor fireplace. This is our 4th visit to the cabin.It now has new owners and they have made so many nice improvements! The porch is fantastic with glass panels all the way around the railing that allows you to veiw the whole river when sitting on the porch. Very nice! Internet works great! Cellular not so much so we used wifi calling which worked great! There is a land line as well. It is a gated community but not crowded at all actually semi private!! We felt safe at all times.I highly recommend. The location the house, everything is fantastic! We loved and will be back! Chris was always quick to answer any questions you might have.We had fresh flowers and a basket of snacks awaiting us on our entry! Orange Juice and Small Milk in the fridge and the condiments you need. And a share pantry that had everything from flour, sugar, coffee etc Exceptional hosts! Thank you for such a great place to stay on the Beautiful White River, Margo and Chris

Beautifully Appointed, Gorgeous View, Extremely Clean, and extras!
The property was beautiful. While we stayed here during the cooler months and did not use the pier, get in the water or use the boat lift, we enjoyed a lovely weekend. The owners are very helpful in explaining the details and available to help with whatever you need. The property was beautifully renovated and wonderfully appointed, and the pictures are exactly what you get. Most important to me was how clean this property was. Plenty of space with both upstairs and down living areas plus 2 large outdoor balconies that allowed us to enjoy both cool evenings and grill as well as beautiful sunrises over the water and taken in the warm sun mid-day. The owners have also provided more than what you traditionally get in a short-term rental. The kitchen contained not only plenty of plates and glassware but also enough cooking supplies as well as extras like spices (in case you forgot that one), tinfoil and plastic baggies. Although we brought our own, it was nice to know those kinds of items were there if we needed or ran out. The 2 coffee bars were great – plenty of items to get you started. And, boxes of Kleenexes were scattered throughout, and it was a quality brand with lotion! The bathrooms had traditional mini bottles of shampoo and conditioner and soap as well as makeup wash clothes and plenty of toilet paper and towels. While the driveway is steep, the owners coach you through the parking process. They made things very easy with their detailed communication on what to expect as well as responsiveness. We’ll definitely stay here again when visiting the area.

This was the PERFECT place! The space was incredible, the style was inspirational, the colors were relaxing! The old wood feel of the doors and floors, along with the door knobs, it felt like walking into my grandparents house...except for this place has been decorated in such a beautiful way! Everything had relaxed colors. Everything was stylish and adorable. We even had UGG brand washcloths! Every room had a way to cool or heat, and had a writing or computer space. Including a mirror, so all the women don’t have to hog the bathrooms to get ready. They even had hooks for towels in each room so that the bathroom wasn’t full of towels! The host were so thoughtful with their contact, and with their hospitality! We visited on Mother’s Day weekend, and Kali and Lance had decorated Mother’s Day cookies there for us! I wish we had more time because we didn’t have time to use the lawn games! The house was full of surprises like these cute hidey holes! Well they are storage places, but it just added to the uniqueness of the house. And the loft bed area!! I couldn’t stop taking pictures of it! The outside of the house was just as stunning as the inside! The rock, the flowers, the swing, and the sitting area out back! We had a wonderful time with our coffee and mimosas on that swing! Parking...we were able to park 4 vehicles comfortably..and believe it or not, we could’ve fit one more! The beds felt like you were sleeping on a cloud...soft squishy pillows, fluffy clean comforters, and a memory foam bed...yes...it felt like sleeping in heaven! We also used the expresso machine since we had 2 kids that are baristas at a local coffee place!! I really could go on and on..but I will recommend this place to everyone that even comes close to mentioning Hot Springs!! Thanks Kali and Lance, we left much laughter, huge smiles, and many happy memories for your walls!

Unexpected Hideaway - Amenities abounding!
This hideaway is such a beautiful escape from the day to day, but yet you are so close to downtown and the commercial shopping district. Still not far from Dollar General, Gas Stations, restaurants and ease on/off of major highways. But you do not feel like you are near any of that. It is in a super quiet, zero-traffic place overlooking a beautiful lake with a river that runs through it! The owners are wonderful to work with and are Military/Veterans themselves. The atmosphere was so enjoyable for our group size. The place was well appointed and decorated. All of our needs were met and booking was easy, as well as the payment process. I will stay here again in the future!

Great property
This was a great property with lots of great perks. Located next to an air field, don't worry about the noise. This is a great place if you want to hang on the amazing patio, sit by the pond, or inside in the spacious living room and kitchen. They have about every appliance or pot or pan you could want, and there is plenty of room for you and your family or friends. The location is great being right in the middle of many attractions for hiking or biking. Would love to come back here again!
