Enjoyed everything about this place. Very nice, close to our "adventures" and the host was great to work with. We would highly recommend and hopefully we will be back soon. Thank You again
This country retreat is a great place to stay. The place is set up wonderfully and with great thoughtfulness. The host has provided all the large items but also the small items to make a great vacation.
This property ended up being a wonderful solution to a short-term stay for a relocation to the area. Clean, cozy, it offered every amenity you'd expect for a comfortable stay of two weeks. I loved the privacy and the quiet of the area. The owners were fantastic with communication and their flexibility to my schedule was greatly appreciated! Highly recommend if you're looking for a nice place to stay in the area.
I really enjoyed my stay for 4 weeks. The location was great and the surrounding nature is absolutely beautiful. There were days where there were deer and turkeys in the yard. This VRBO is well stocked in case you forget any items for your stay. Thanks for a great stay!
Its a lovely, quiet property with lots of trees in the country. Kitties loved watching the squirrels and sitting on the porch for morning coffee was wonderful. The place has all you'll need & the bed is great!
Very nice rural retreat. A little farther out of town than we would have liked, but nothing was misrepresented. Nice place, great hosts, and very dog-friendly. Thanks to Joyce and Hank!
Quiet retreat! The host was great at communicating and answering any questions we had. The property was quiet and perfect size for me and my husband and our 60 lb dog. The property had all the amenities you would need and provided plenty of entertainment opportunities. Great stay and would definitely recommend if you’re needing something in that area.
This is a perfect getaway. It is so peaceful and restful. I loved it, but it is not close to town, which for me was not a problem. I loved sitting on the front porch....listening to the birds and watching the squirrels. It was wonderful. Thank you Joyce!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Beautiful countryside get-away. The guest house is private and just behind the main house. Loved sitting on the deck and looking out at the woods in the evenings. Comfy bed. Peaceful and relaxing.Easy drive to lots of local restaurants and things to see and do. The owners were terrific and so accommodating from the time we made the reservation and throughout the entire stay. Great find!
This place was great. It was out in the country but still close enough to anything you needed. The only thing that was a little disappointing was the hot water.. it got warm.. but definitely not hot. But everything else was great.
Great experience staying at this rental property. Our family traveled with our dog. Joyce was very accommodating with offering use of her dog crate. Property was peaceful, relaxing and located in the country. Home was clean, cozy, with many amenities and was perfect for our 5-night stay. We were in the Knoxville area for a softball tournament and this home was 30 minutes from the field. We enjoyed the supplied campfire/wood. Definitely recommend staying here for a change of pace from the hotel city experience.
Love, love, loved it!!! Quiet. Well kept. Comfortable. It was perfect for our short visit. The late evening and early morning walks in the forest on the property was so refreshing. The furnishings were comfortable. Everything was clean and fresh. So much better than in a hotel! There was a lite bit of a drive to get to stores/tourist activities, but, the scenery made it worth it. Joyce was so responsive to our needs and it was great to work with her. We will definately stay there again!!! Thanks so much Joyce!!
