If you’re looking for a great place to get away and relax, this is the place! My husband and I had amazing stay! The house was clean and decorated to make us feel right at home. The host was responsive and the check-in process was seamless. There were no issues with the high speed internet and the house was easy to get to. The house was exactly as advertised and I could tell that the host put a lot of thought into making this stay amazing for their guests! I also appreciated that the check-out to-do list was super short and practical. This house is definitely on my short list of places I look forward to coming back to!

Thank you for the kind review and for being my guest. I look forward to the time that you can return to The Carriage House. :)
My husband and I really enjoyed the cottage!!! The hose went above and beyond to mail some belongings that we left behind. She’s very sweet and thoughtful.

Arrival email with door code information was sent five days prior to guest's arrival. Either the VRBO system did not deliver message or guest did not read it. It was shown as "delivered" on host's email system.
About the host
Hosted by Becky
I have been a host since 2019 and was involved with my parent's VRBO for a few years before then. I enjoy traveling, I have been to every state in the U.S., except for two and to ten countries, and I also really like houses. I like to fix them up and decorate them for my guests. :) I hope you enjoy your stay in my house, because I designed it with you in mind.
Why they chose this property
This is my second VRBO home. I have had one in Greenville, TN since 2019 and thanks to a very generous friend, who left me her home, I was able to invest in a second property. This is one of the most beautiful pieces of property that I have seen in East Tennessee and I always admired it when driving through the area. When it came up for sale, I purchased it sight unseen, while I was traveling, with the help of my real estate agent/friend. I did not realize until I tried to start developing it, that it is essentially a giant slab of limestone with a bit of dirt here and there. After about two years of failed attempts to get approval and getting contractors to complete work for me, I was finally able to put a tiny house here. After this summer, I think I have decided that the vegetation is taking two steps forward while I battle it back one step, but I have made progress and hope to make more as time goes on. I know how I want the property to look, but I just have to get there. :) I hope you enjoy this little oasis, as much as I do.
What makes this property unique
This tiny house is in a private setting, by itself. It is surrounded by nature with birds and frogs singing, deer sometimes passing through and bees and butterflies enjoying all the flowers. The tiny house, although small is a work of craftsmanship on the inside, and furnished with comfort in mind.
