This bright, clean, and comfortable 3-bedroom home is ideal for families, groups, and extended stays near Melton Lake, Windrock Park, ORNL, and the UT Arboretum. Guests appreciate our spacious living areas, fully stocked kitchen, and thoughtful touches designed to ensure a truly relaxing experience.
