Plenty of space for husband and I along with our son and my brother and sister in law and their son. Not too far from places to eat or family reunion which was an added bonus. We were pretty much there to sleep and unwind and would recommend and stay there again.

Beautifu, cozy home, nestled in the hillside - off the beaten path, but close enough to the city to be able to experience all Knoxville had to offer. House has all the amenities to enjoy an extended stay without having to go without the comforts of home. We will absolutely consider this home for future visits to the Knoxville area!

Clean, cozy, and for the most part, extremely quiet. Also, just barely off the beaten path to give you the country feel, but still close to amenities. Just what the Dr. ordered. The screened in deck/patio was extremely enjoyable, especially for watching the deer, cows, and turkey. If you're a hiker or mountain biker, Haw Ridge Park is a nice visit.

Great to have a place that welcomes pets. We enjoyed the screened in room. Was disappointed that each bathroom only had one roll of toilet paper and there were no garbage bags. Also missed not having a cookie sheet.

Very well decorated. Love the individual spaces, for example, nice to have a screened in porch, living room, dining room and sitting area in the basement. People can go different directions if they want some personal space. Love having two full baths. Nice outdoor space for my dog. Enjoyed hearing the cows and wild turkeys. Very quiet!!
