Quaint Property Perfect Location

We had a great stay at this property. It was truly in the heart of downtown so we were able to get to all of the locations we were visiting within a 4 to 6 minute drive. The house was very clean and just enough space for two people, while there are two bedrooms I feel like it may be a little snug for 4 people. Only concerns were, the property driveway was not very well marked, so Uber has had a hard time finding it, or would pass the driveway. And the other note is whoever lives upstairs, does have a dog which was quite loud in the mornings, but other than that, no complaints, would definitely stay again!

5-star stay

We had an excellent stay at the Downtown Retreat! The property was exactly as described in the listing. Extremely clean with lots of personal touches. The home was equipped with everything we needed plus more. The neighborhood was safe and quiet and we enjoyed walking our dog around the area. Super close to downtown and very accessible to everything. We will definitely be back!

Great experience!!

Our family came to Knoxville and stayed in the downtown retreat. It was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed for our vacation. The owner was easy to get in touch with and handled everything we needed. We would highly recommend staying here and seeing downtown Knoxville.
