About this property
Cozy Vintage Yacht -- Walk to Neyland +Free Parking
Climb aboard this cozy 32′ vintage cabin cruiser and enjoy beautiful river views, outdoor seating, and easy access to downtown Knoxville!
The main sleeping area is a unique V-shaped bed at the bow on the boat that comfortably sleeps two adults. A curtain separates this area from the rest of the cabin for privacy.
Additional sleeping spaces include a convertible futon and a convertible dinette, each slightly larger than a twin, suitable for one adult or child.
You’ll also have a kitchenette stocked with a mini-fridge, microwave, hot plate, toaster, and coffee maker. A stocked coffee bar, pots & pans, spices, and a variety of cooking utensils ensure you'll have all the essentials ready for you!
The bathroom is a compact but thoughtfully equipped wet-head-- where the shower and toilet share one efficient space. To make your stay even more comfortable, we provide biodegradable body wash, shampoo, and conditioner—perfect for freshening up while also being gentle on the water and environment.
Please Note: Parking is about a 10-minute walk from the dock. Pack light and enjoy the riverside stroll — it’s part of the charm!
Amenities You’ll Love:
- Front deck seating — the perfect spot for morning coffee or sunset views
- Fast Wi-Fi and smart TV, ready to sign into your favorite service to watch the game or movies
- Air conditioning & heating
- Compact galley for simple meals
- Steps from Knoxville’s riverwalk, Neyland Stadium, and Market Square
The Location:
Volunteer Landing Marina is in the heart of Knoxville. Walk to restaurants, bars, and Market Square, or head to Neyland Stadium to cheer on the Vols. On game days, you’ll be right in the middle of the Vol Navy energy!
This Stay Is Perfect For:
