About the host
Hosted by Jongee and John Cheek

We love meeting new people! I own a boutique in downtown Sparta, walking distance from the Nook on Maple St. My husband John was born-and-raised in Sparta and is now a retired insurance executive. We are are a fun, loving couple who loves traveling and spending time with our granddaughters. John loves collecting cool vintage signs and treasures and Jongee loves contemporary and modern design (with a bit of funky) - you can see both of our personalities come through in our rental decor. We are passionate about our charming small-town, and are happy to assist you with anything you may need during your stay!
