Extremely clean! (my most important feature I look for). In most areas the lighting was excellent (i.e. bright enough), the A/C and heating system worked great; Wi-Fi was excellent. The area is quiet with lots of trees, but a very short ride to a full service supermarket and some other stores. Although I would have preferred to have more water pressure in the shower, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again on a future visit to Knoxville.

The house was in excellent condition, very clean, very convenient to Knoxville, just far enough out of the city to hear the birds in the early morning as they wake up for their day. I highly recommend staying here, Ms. Kathy is an excellent host.

Beautiful spot and beautiful home! Super well appointed cozy and relaxing. Responsive and helpful host on site, but separate house. Close to UTK. Stayed here before move in at the university. Left car packed with roof rack and basket on tow hitch overnight. Private secluded parking. Wished we stayed longer! The host even gave us tomatoes from her garden, which were delicious! Highly recommend!

Great place!

This house was so warm and welcoming. It had everything we needed. Those beds were so comfortable and much needed after long days of training for our young dancers. The owner was super communicative and responded to all requests quickly. I have one complaint- the ad said it was under 10 minutes to the venue but it was a solid 15 -- I know it's nit picky but 5 minutes in the morning is much needed when wrangling a couple of teens in the early morning. I loved the quiet, serene mornings on the deck with a cup of coffee. The rain shower was a bonus and the fully equipped kitchen made prepping meals so easy.

Just what we needed

We had 4 adults stay for 2 nights to visit UTK for a football game. This was a great place to stay. The house was adoreable, clean, and very convenient to the university. The biggest stand out was the home owner, Kathy. She is incredibly friendly and helpful. She gave us great recommendations and helped us out with a few requests. I highly recommend staying here.

We very much enjoyed our stay here. The only thing we didn’t care for were the lack of towels. They seemed to be more like throw blankets than towels and no absorption. I would definitely tag here again and bring my own towels.
