From the moment you drive onto the property, it is exactly as advertised (or actually more amazing). It is spectacular outside and inside, including the incredible finishing touches. Nothing was forgotten where amenities were concerned. And the Owners are most gracious and hospitable. Will be staying many more times!

When I think of Tennessee, I think of rolling hills, welcoming people, a slower pace of life, homemade breakfast, football on the weekends... all the things that make life great. Staying at this property was the epitome of what I imagine when I think of Tennessee. We came for a visit to explore the area. We arrived in the evening on a perfect fall day. Driving up to the house, we saw the rolling hills of the property and the cows out back as the sun was setting. We were amazed at how quiet and still the property was. We opened the front door to find a perfectly curated farmhouse that blended high quality fixtures and finishouts with rustic materials that have character and history. The kitchen begged me to cook, so we made breakfast each morning and dinner each night. The beds encourage you to linger longer, so we slept in, had coffee on the porch in the morning and rambled around the property. The bathroom welcomes you to treat yourself well and to take your time. The house is a destination of its own, and the owner, Tim, is a very generous host who really wants to see visitors enjoy the house the way his family has enjoyed the area for many years.

About the host

Hosted by Tim Dutton

Host profile image

He built his first home in 1986 and after graduating from MTSU, went on to build a lifelong career in home construction and real estate. Tim believes every day is a gift from God - and what you do with it is your gift to him in return. A devoted family man, Tim has one daughter, a son-in-law, and two grandchildren who inspire him every day.

Tim also believes that authenticity, along with honest communication is the foundation of meaningful relationships, and he brings that same approach to hosting. Today, Tim finds peace in maintaining his farm and soaking in the quiet beauty associated with the views and the land he calls home.
