Cozy Cabin

The cabin was a wonderful place to stay. There was nothing better than waking up in the morning and sitting by the fireplace! The property was everything it said it was going to be! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay! Sally was also very prompt and helpful in responding and very accommodating for a late check in and early check out.

Best place in Limestone!

We were pleasantly surprised with the roominess of the cabin. We slept great, had wonderful coffee each morning and found everything to be above our standards which is saying a lot! Thank you to the owners for all the little details and for offering up this place… we hope to return soon.

Surprising

I was shocked by how close we were to a train. Totally unexpected. Living in a house on the highway and across from a RR track, that’s not what I was hoping to listen to on my get away in the mountains. The cabin itself, was beautiful.

Fantastic little cabin

Sally was a wonderful host. The cabin was so cozy and adorable. Having our coffee on the porch in the morning was the perfect way to start the day. I had never been to the area before so Sally made some nice suggestions. We stopped by Davey Crockett park which was a very interesting and very pretty stroll. Would definitely recommend staying here to anyone visiting the Limestone or Jonesborough area.

Dream getaway

Sally is the warmest, most welcoming hostess you could ever want! This 150-year old cabin is a real treat! The beds are fabulous and the wood burning fireplace with a great stash of nearby wood is a joy on a cool autumn visit. I recommend it wholeheartedly!

Wonderful Stay!

We loved our stay here! It was close to many local attractions, and the hosts were kind and helpful. The place was pet friendly, and smelt like the rustic log cabin that it was without any lingering pet smells. Our dog felt at home here and so did we! We loved the rich history the place had and can't wait until we can return again.

Perfect holiday getaway. Sally was available but we had all the privacy we wanted. Lovely cabin with a great xl tub! Stairs were a little tricky and I wouldn't recommend for small children or people with mobility issues. We loved it!!

Lovely!

We had a great stay at Sally’s place. We loved learning the history of the property. We visited Davy Crocketts birthplace, stopped at Troyers Marker, spent time in historic Jonesborough and attended a wedding at the Millstone. The cabin was conveniently located to everything and was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Would recommend!

Even Better Than Expected

When you choose to stay in a historic house, you typically go in with an understanding that you’re trading some comfort for draftiness and quirks. This did not end up being the case with this stay! We were warm and cozy in the log cabin and appreciated the pops of bright artwork mingled with the historic nature of the property. Everything felt and looked aesthetically pleasing and well appointed, without being so precious that we didn’t feel comfortable or couldn’t relax. We highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for an authentic Smokies experience away from crowds of tourists. We appreciated the proximity from Troyer’s, Davy Crockett’s birthplace, Horse Creek recreation area, and historic Jonesborough.
