It was an amazing property with great owners that was very friendly. It was close to the lake and quick and easy to put our boat in. It was also close to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. We had a great time and hope to stay again. Thanks again to Max and Wendy! God Bless you!

It was the perfect place to stay for a weekend getaway to visit with cousins from all over the US. Max & Wendy were kind and welcoming. They went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect. I plan to stay again and will recommend to everyone I know!

This is a secluded garage loft with a great view of Douglas Lake. Located just outside of Dandridge and minutes from I-40. The loft is extremely clean and well appointed. The hosts are very friendly and easy to communicate with. We would highly recommend this beautiful loft.

We found Wendy & Max's Lofty Escape to be the ideal spot for our visit in the Dandridge area and would highly recommend it. As hosts, Wendy & Max were delightful, friendly and responsive. They prepared us well in advance of our arrival for check-in steps and shared detailed driving instructions. Much appreciated! We arrived extremely late on our first night after a long day of travel and were grateful to find a very clean & well appointed loft studio. It was quite apparent Wendy & Max had given a great deal of thought in appointing the loft with creature comforts of home. It is located just across the road from Douglas Lake and offers a lovely view. We found the loft's location to be ideal - a quick drive into the historical town of Dandridge and also Sevierville. Its easy access to main throughfares made for convenient drives to Knoxville, Morristown and Newport as well. With as much fun as we had getting to know the area, it felt especially nice to return to the cozy loft and settle in for relaxing evenings. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Wendy & Max's Lofty Escape and very much look forward to our next visit!

We would highly recommend this to anyone staying in the Dandridge area. Not only is the loft extremely clean but the little details and finishing touches that have been put into the property are great, really makes you feel like home. Downtown Dandridge is a cute place to walk through and they had a concert going on Thursday night, it was great to see many residents out listening to the music. We enjoyed sitting at the patio outside and happened to run into Wendy on a whim. She was amazing to talk to, explained what mountains we were looking at and gave us some great recommendations.

The loft was tastefully done and clean. Unfortunately when we walked into the loft there was an odor that we could not identify. We contacted Wendy and she thought it might be the air purifier and she shut it off. The odor messed up our sinuses and we both got headaches. We went out the next day hoping the odor would clear out but it hadn't. We dont get to vacation often. We ended up having to leave early so our vacation was a great disappointment. Wendy texted that they did not smell the odor when they went in to clean and that the next guests reported no odor either. Maybe it was just a fluke but none the less we did not get to enjoy our stay.

This was a little piece of heaven! Conveniently located - close to boat ramps and minutes away from Sevierville. Everything was better than shown and the best thing I noticed was it just smelled clean as soon as you walked in. Very nicely decorated and even little extras to make you feel at home. Owners were very, very nice and were helpful when needed. My husband and I will definitely be returning! Thanks for a great long weekend!
