This was a great place to stay. No complaints, the river is beautiful. We did not drive down the hill in our Elantra, but we probably could have. We would stay here again.

Our stay on the river

This was a wonderful location. The host family made us feel so welcome. The views were spectacular especially in the morning with fog hanging over the river and the sun rising over the trees.

Perfect Getaway

My husband, kids (12 & 15), and I had a wonderful stay. Property was quiet and private, yet 15-20 min from all the activities we had planned. Beds and pillows were super comfortable and the property had everything we needed.

Holston Hills Get Away

My wife and I stayed here while we were having some work done at our house. Beautiful little spot, great location and had everything we needed to make it home away from home for a bit. Highly recommend.

Perfection!

The barn apartment was perfect for our visit to Knoxville. The property is beautiful and quiet (right on the river), and an easy drive to downtown. The owners are delightful and the property manager easy to work with. We would happily stay here again!

Pet friendly and nice location right on the River. Driveway needs an SUV to get to barn and water pressure was low at best. Everything else was great!

Cozy Barn retreat with River fun and fireflies

We had a fantastic stay at this VRBO! It was perfect for our family of three and our dog. Our son had a great time playing by the river and catching fireflies at night. The barn was cozy and comfortable, providing everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We hope to return soon!

Beautiful property with responsive host. Only downside was a steep rutted driveway to guesthouse. Bring your 4 wheel drive.

Down by the River

It was great waking up every morning and enjoying a cup of coffee while watching the river. Our yellow lab loved taking dips in the river and chasing the ball in the wide open field around the barn.

Calm and peaceful

My 13 year old and I came for a mother/daughter weekend and a concert in Knoxville. We both absolutely LOVED this property. It’s so peaceful and beautiful. Far away enough to have serenity but close enough to everything. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful get away. Clean, quiet and relaxing. Convenient to everything but also away from it all. Communication was great and the stay was everything advertised. Driveway is a little rough so prepare for that if you have a low vehicle.
