Mariner's View is located next to Stone's View; owning both properties enables us to offer accommodations to larger families. The location is convenient yet private. Located 125 yards from main street downtown, 1/2 mile to the area's grocery store, and a 1/4 mile from the marina and public boat ramp. There are 7 bedrooms which all has direct access to a bathroom (including 3 ensuites). Bedrooms #1 - 4 is located on the main floor, and bedrooms #5 - 7 are on the bottom floor. We have large parking capacity (up to 50 vehicles). There are three large gathering areas, two kitchens, a 1,200 sq ft patio area (520 sq ft of the patio is covered), and a 550 sq ft deck off the living room area. There is access to the lake from the backyard; one can walk down to fish, swim, or just hangout and relax. We are on the main channel were docks are not permitted There are several Marinas with in 2 miles that rent watercraft: I try to greet guests as they arrive to briefly review a few things about the house and area that may be beneficial during their stay. Dandridge exemplifies small town USA (also called the "Mayberry" of Tennessee); it is Tennessee's second oldest city that has a proud, unique historic past and is protective of its heritage. Dandridge is safe and family friendly; My wife and I love to take walks; we're entertained by the cities nuances and in awe of the lakes natural beauty. The house is located in the Historic District where on can walk one block to the Ropers mansion to view/buy antiques, visit the oldest operating courthouse in the USA, have lunch or dinner at a garden-to-table restaurant, or have a ice cream float and burger at the century+ old Drug store. The best Mariner's View has to offer is the inner peace and joy you'll experience seating on the deck or patio watching the birds catch their lunch, the occasional deer and turkey grazing, or maybe a glimpse of bald eagles that nest in the area. We hope you visit us and experience the unique qualities of the Great Smokey Mountains, Douglas Lake, and historic Dandridge at Mariner's View.
