Read what residents Allen, Janice and Allessa Hall have to say about their Mountain Dream Community:
“Finding Grande Vista Bay concluded a five-year search for our envisioned environment, development and building site. We looked exhaustively in CA, WA, OR, TX, KY, New Zealand and various European cities – all of which are wonderful places, but none had all the features we had been seeking. We were familiar with the tax advantages, southern culture, natural beauty and recreational opportunities in Tennessee, so we took a week tour of the state, starting from the western portion. We saw many beautiful properties from west to central, but none had all the features we were looking for so we continued eastward. As we progressed, the properties became more attractive and harder to pass up, but we were holding out for the best-of-the-best.”
“As we arrived into the development we could easily see why the developer chose this location and its obvious qualities (mountains, hills, forest, Tennessee River, Watts Bar Lake, first-rate construction of Club Grande, underground utilities, gated access to home sites, proximity to Interstate 40 with easy access to Knoxville, Nashville and Chattanooga), so we began to investigate more closely. Incidentally, this was in the midst of our newborn daughter’s ‘protestations’ for a nap. The GVB sales office welcomed us very warmly and offered to help care for our baby so that we could go out to see some of the home building sites. By the time we returned, we had agreed to buy the parcel of our fantasies and our daughter was sleeping in the arms of our realtor, rocking gently in a big chair on the shaded front porch – a sure sign she agreed that we had made the right choice for a place to raise her!”
“When we first saw lot 365 high on a hill of the west side of GVB, it was accessible only via 4WD on a narrow trail, but the sales-person assured us it would be developed just as beautifully as the showcase on the east side of GVB. The administrative, sales and legal teams also assured us that all of the infrastructure would be ready in time for us to start building within a few months. We were further assured that, even though we could not see much water due to the trees on our selected lake-view site, when we cleared some of them out of the way we would be very pleased. All of these assurances came true. In fact, even our greatest expectations were exceeded every step of the way from contract, to closing, to infrastructure development and all the way through to building and occupying our new home – all in just under 13 months.”
“The GVB development speaks for itself and is a dream-come-true for our family. What’s more is that the GVB developer and staff have our highest respect for their integrity, performance and willingness to treat us not only like clients, but also as friends. Each person we have encountered has responded thoroughly and promptly to our every question, request or need. We whole-heartedly, with no reservation, recommend GVB to anyone who has a similar dream.”
