The 6 hour private tour was very relaxing and not spoiled by a spot of rain when we started out. We stayed nice and dry inside the boat's cabin and ventured back out as soon as skies cleared.

Anthony and his wife went above and beyond any words I can describe. The pictures don't do it justice either. I had my mother, teenage son and daughter with me and we felt like we were at my Uncle's cabin on the lake. The hospitality was above and beyond, they had everything we hadn't thought of, and we weren't nickled and dimed for anything. You HAVE to add the boat cruise/entertainment to your stay. I've been all over and this Lake is massive, absolutely gorgeous and CLEAN. Forget Cumberland, Center Hill, Chicamauga, Percy Priest and others. Anthony showed us all the islands, several great swimming spots, numerous picturesque scenes, and more. The facility has memory foam mattresses, everything you need and they just continued to share their hospitality showing us how things were built, their amazing gardens and mountains. We know we will return and are already looking to plan our next trip, maybe this time take him up on one of the island stays where you get to boat, but they set you up completely on a private island to be able to take in a sunset, enjoy the entire lake and nature experience, but in true glamping fashion.

A very nice woman helped and booked our cruise. It was really nice. We did the dinner cruise. At 5:15 they started to let us on the boat. Byron took our drink order and let us know about the souvenir cup, if we wanted to buy a drink and keep the cup. Before the next group came in he answered a few questions I had and was very friendly. 6pm the cruise started. Tables were told they could go to the buffet. Food was good. I didn't like their honey mustard dressing, I asked Byron if there was any other dressing. He brought me ranch in a little cup. He was on top of refilling our drinks and asking if we needed anything. I asked him so many different questions and he answered everything and shared some things to try while in Tennessee. We had our dinner and enjoyed the view. After the meal we went on the deck and enjoyed everything. At the end I thank Byron and the rest of the crew. I would do this again for sure.

It's mid-October so the pricing wasn't peak pricing and at $40/person. My GPS glitched and turned us around a couple times so we made it just in time. We were given the safety briefing after checking in. Then we got our gear and got on the bus to get to the river. Our small group of 5 got to raft with James. He was phenomenal! James is so much like my husband's family where he can joke with a straight face and you don't know if it's a joke or not. James did an amazing job of guiding us and leading us down the Ocoee. Several in our group had never been whitewater rafting before. Everyone had a great time! It was truly amazing. Thank you so much for memories we won't ever forget!
