"Hillside Haven" offers hotel-style amenities that balance natural light with serenity, including online concierge and white glove service.
The cabin is just a whisper away from the sun-soaked Tennessee River — with beautiful mountain views peeking through the lush canopy of ancient oaks and maple.
This quiet sanctuary is fairly isolated on a rugged road with miles of dreamy forest winding along the river. We affectionately call it the "Rocky Road" — and although we're still looking for the chocolate, the bumps along the way are simply part of the magic :)
Immerse your stay with outdoor games, luxurious hot tub spa, natural woods & forests, hiking trails nearby, wood-burning firepit, and everything you'll need to kick back and relax.
We've hosted over 6,227 stays at our homes (both Superhost & Guest Favorites), so you're in good hands :)

"What's the monthly rate? Can I lease month to month?"
If there's a full month available with no existing bookings, you're welcome to select the dates and the app will show you the pricing breakdown for your date range. We've had many guests book 30+ nights and we do offer a large 20% discount for monthly bookings.

We can’t control payment plans on our end, but Airbnb often makes one available, you may see the option when booking.
