Highly recommend this property if you want to visit Jonesborough, TN. We attended the storytelling festival, which was amazing, but Jonesborough would be an interesting place to visit even when a special event is not going on. The bungalow is just a very short drive north of town in a nice rural setting. Property is well-furnished and well-decorated. Especially enjoyed the covered outdoor seating area that included a firepit and cooking griddle. The property also includes a carport and privacy fence. Overall, a really good place to stay.
