Please note the main driveway up the hill is shared with our neighbor. Be careful not to block.
If firewood for the fire pit is present at the time of your stay, feel free to use it. Firewood can be purchased at nearby retail stores, such as Walmart & Food City.
If you use the outdoor games, please place them back in the shed overnight so they don`t get exposed to rain or animals.
This area is home to lots of wildlife. Our lot is partially wooded and we are adjacent to a 22 acre wooded lot. You may see deer, raccoons, wild turkeys, large owls and other birds of prey. Keep an eye on smaller dogs when outside as owls can lift 2-3 times their body weight, so dogs up to 10 pounds are vulnerable. No smoking inside the home. Primary booking guest must be 25 years of age or older.

Thank you Angie! And again, we would welcome you and your family back anytime. You were a joy to host.
We had an amazing stay! They are pet friendly and welcomed our dogs which was a key contributor to choosing this property. All rooms were clean and very nice. There was some confusion about the pet fee on my end but the hosts handled it kindly and professionally. We had a package delivered overnight the day we arrived that the cleaner had picked it up prior to our arrival. I should have communicated this to the host but didn’t think to do so. They were nice enough to bring it by to us within an hour of our arrival. Book with confidence! This was a great place to stay.

Thank you Jason--we're glad you had a great stay! Jason and his group were the kind of guests all hosts hope for--communicative, respectful of the property and gracious with minor issues. We would welcome Jason back anytime.
Pet friendly and very clean. Climate controls were easy to use and convenient to Pellissippi Parkway.
