This was our second stay in this lovely home. We love Cumberland Gap. The house was clean and had everything you would need. Be sure to check out the coffee house while you are here. My only complaint - I miss the front screen door
Everything in the house was bigger/better than posted and the town was adorable. Cute coffee shops and restaurants ad the location to hiking was better than expected. I would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed staying in the historic district of Cumberland Gap and walking to local hiking spots. The house is clean and well maintained, with plenty of kitchen supplies.
The house is charming, a 1920s Craftsman style, with antique pieces mingled in with more comfortable modern furniture.
We loved this property because we appreciate old towns. We liked the slow pace but with great options for nearby great food. House is as described however IGA is in Harrogate about 5 min away by car and the Dollar store is 6 to 7 min away. The hosts respond within min to text or questions which was wonderful. We will visit this property again.
Thought the rental was very good. was comfortable and enjoyed our stay. Was stay again. Would have liked better quality sheets and the bed. Other than that was great

Our son is a student at LMU, and we have stayed in the Inn nearby and some of the hotels in Middlesboro. We will definitely stay here again. My husband and I brought my parents and we loved hanging out on the front porch and walking to the town for coffee. Beds weren't super comfortable, but nice enough! Owner was very responsive.
