Disliked: Cleanliness
We were very disappointed with the cleanliness of this property. Photos are a bit deceiving. And although the owner did a good job of communicating when we checked in, we were just beat from our trip and did not notify him until few days later of our concerns. That is our bad. Owners Bad was his response. Very difficult to talk to, and just kept saying this was his business. I did not formally ask for money back, was trying to tell him of our concerns. His book clearly states that if you cannot leave a 5 star review to please reach out....which I tried to do. but his responses were offensive. On day 3 I had bites all over me. Probably from previous guest/dog but not sure. Towels were very old and frayed, and the "sunroom" was filthy. I should have known the moment we entered, as it was an overwhelming smell of dog urine and he had several large fans moving. Cannot believe others have left high reviews.

Beautiful House & Great Host

The house is really well done and has everything you need. It is in a great location with a large driveway! We had some problems checking into the house (not the host's fault at all), and the host went above and beyond to make sure we got in immediately (which was much appreciated after a 10 hr drive!). Would definitely recommend staying here to others!

Sweet Retreat in Knoxville

We had a wonderful stay at this North Knoxville cottage home. The home is located in a quiet older neighborhood along the Dogwood Trail which was perfect for walking our dogs. The home was very clean and comfortable and the kitchen was well-equipped. Host was very responsive and personable. It was one of the nicest homes we have stayed in over the past couple of years and we would definitely stay in again if and when we visit Knoxville.

This property is located on part of Knoxville's famous Dogwood Trail and in a neighborhood that boasts beautiful flower gardens, blooming landscapes, lovely historic homes and, while we stayed in April, native flowering dogwood trees. It is a lovely, well maintained rental and will not disappoint.
