Great getaway spot

The property is great for a getaway. It is in a great spot. Feels like you are staying in the forest. Plus it has a lot of hiking/walking trails nearby. Cabin is clean and very well stocked. Also very cozy! Outdoor area is versatile and well thought out.

Our stay was perfect

Hillside Haven was perfect for us. It's our second time staying there. The home is extremely clean, tastefully decorated, and very thoughtful in every detail. Examples include plenty of places to plug in, robes in the closet, and plenty of coffee filters, spices and olive oil in the kitchen. Retreat folks are also very responsive.

Amazing weekend getaway and perfect for a dog!

This was a perfect weekend getaway with our dog Loaf. The fenced in deck + yard (with a dog door) made it easy for him to explore without the worry of him wandering off. The house inside had plenty of towels, kitchen items and even dog items that was helpful! Very clean and well decorated! We'll be coming back!

Adorable, comfortable tiny house

The pictures are accurate of what you can expect: we found everything we needed to settle in for some days. The kitchen was well appointed and even had some olive. There’s a grill too. I loved the chairs out front and swing. The outdoor areas really make this a perfect place to relax!

Quiet little getaway

Just had a wonderful get away with our kids and dog to Hillside Haven. It is a beautiful tiny home that feels spacious. The yard is great fenced and landscaped beautifully. The interior is also beautifully decorated. We were able to hike to 2 waterfalls and enjoyed eating in town at Hanks Corner and Tracside. Also the oldest bakery in TN is there Dixie Maid Bakery.

Perfect cabin for a short getaway!

My spouse and friends stayed here when going to a concert at The Caverns. We were able to arrange transportation from this location. The cabin has all the things you need in a clean, functional space. We enjoyed our stay and we all talked about going back.

Restful getaway

This was the absolute perfect place to stay for my partner and I on our first weekend getaway. The amenities and accommodations of Hillside Haven were above and beyond. It has everything you need to allow yourself to rest and enjoy. Even if it rains, you will still love everything this place has to offer. A quiet community, privacy, beautiful outdoor spaces, sparkling hot tub, close to hiking, and all the accommodations you would need for a stress free getaway.
