Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Watts Bar Lake

My husband and I had an amazing anniversary weekend at ShallowHallow. This location has it all. Lots of space, all the amenities, and plenty of activities. We never had to leave the house. The deck overlooked the water providing peaceful breaks between spending time out on the dock. Having access to the canoe, kayaks, and paddle boards was the highlight. There was plenty of no wake zones to get out on the water and soak up some sun. We left wishing we could live there full time.

This place was so cute and cozy! Would definitely recommend a stay at one of AnneAlyse’s listings! Would love to come back!

I was in town for a wedding and this Airbnb was in the perfect location. The place was super clean and had all the essentials and really great water pressure. It was close to the expressway too which was convenient. I would love to stay again if back in the area!

Loved staying here. She was very responsive and helpful when I needed it

Exceptional host! Although I made sure to pack everything I needed, it was nice to see that she had the necessities there as well. Extremely clean home in a very peaceful neighborhood! Will be planning a stay there next year when I’m in the area again!

What can I say! We were in town for a graduation and this house was everything and more! We had a wonderful time. The house was so clean, with lots of space and things for the kids to enjoy. We even played some of the board games as well as card games. The hosts had some delicious baked cookies for you upon arrival. I give this 5 stars and will come back and stay any time. We felt right at home.

Super quiet slightly rural location still close to everything I needed (groceries, restaurants, etc). The sunroom was great. The owner is WAY into Star Wars, with memorabilia everywhere, along with lots of other themed items. Clear instructions, no problems at all. Fast wifi. Comfortable and livable. I'd book this place again.

Small cute place to stay

Great host! Great value! Everything was easy and smooth right from the starts. No issues whatsoever but if we did have one we were confident they would get back to us extremely quickly.

I stayed here during a work trip and appreciated how close I was to everything! Thank you!

Beverly was a great host! Very friendly and made us feel at home. Place was perfect for my husband and I and our dogs.

This is our 2nd stay here and we absolutely love our experience. We have already booked for next year when we will be in the area for a conference.

Laurie and Daniel They are the best of best and their kind and helpful and make everything wonderful for us. We already have booked another two trip in the future with them next year. We will continue to come there and stay at their place in search of that trophy bass.

This is my second time staying at John’s place. It was just as I remembered it. Very peaceful and private. He was super quick to respond and had everything we needed. Looking forward to staying again in the future!

Vickie's private studio was an absolute gem! The pictures truly don't do this place justice; it's even more charming and comfortable in person. We were immediately struck by how peaceful and quiet the apartment was, making it the perfect retreat after a long day of traveling to Knoxville. Vickie herself was an outstanding host and an amazing person – warm, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. Her place is the gold standard for what every Airbnb experience should be: immaculately clean, well-appointed, and hosted by someone who genuinely cares about her guests' comfort. We cannot recommend this studio enough and will definitely be staying with Vickie again on our next trip to Knoxville!

I was happy to find this as a last minute booking and it was perfect! So happy I wasn't near the UT traffic when I visited and the rural area reminds me a lot of the area where I'm from! Great place!

This was such a nice place to stay! Scott was proactive in his communication and everything was well-laid out for us. The unit was beautiful with lots of thoughtful touches. There is a lot of room to spread out and spend some down time when you aren’t out exploring.

Great experience. 👍 From the very beginning, David was very proactive and answered all questions immediately. He was even able to accommodate my request for an early check-in as I had a function to attend that night and needed to get ready. Overall, it was a very pleasurable weekend . I would recommend David’s unit to anyone.😁

Despite the location above a busy intersection and restaurant, was reasonably quiet at night. Through, the periodic train passing through will wake you up each night.

Excellent place to stay, beautiful well designed/decorated duplex in very walkable quiet neighborhood, close to hiking/running trails. John and Amanda were super quick to respond to questions and take care of a small issue we had on the last night. Overall: loved it, would stay again!

We loved our stay in this beautiful condo! We were in town for our daughter’s college orientation and the location was perfect for visiting the UT campus regularly. The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen and family room were beautifully decorated. We were very comfortable and will definitely stay again!

Thanks again for the stay! She is always nice and helpful with anything that comes up.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! It was exactly like the pictures, and the bed was super comfy. Plus, the place smelled amazing! The parking was such a fantastic perk, especially since finding parking in this area can be a challenge, especially now with the new baseball stadium nearby. We loved that it was just a short walk to Gay Street and right across the street from Balter Beerworks, where the food, drinks, and service were all top-notch. I’m already looking forward to our next trip to Knoxville so I can book this awesome place again!

We stopped here on a long road trip, just staying overnight. It is the perfect place to crash for that type of stay. Mary was very easy to contact and responsive.
