This is such a charming and cozy cabin surrounded by woods but moments from civilization. Every nook is decorated to reflect a homey atmosphere. It looks just as advertised. The property owner checked in with us and was very responsive to my questions. The access to the cabin involves a large staircase that can be a bit challenging with luggage (and for older travelers) but so worth every step. I his was my second stay and I have recommended to others who have also stayed here and loved it!

Nature Nestled in Knoxville

This is our second time visiting because we love this cozy cottage so much. The location is perfect for this city girl—restaurant at the end of the road, local coffee shop within a mile or so, all while being tucked away in the woods!

Perfect location for UTK visit

The house was only a few miles from camps but it was like being in a completely different place. It was quiet and serene. And a great place to wind down after a long day. If you like the cabin/ woodsy feel this place is for you!

Nice place!

We weren't around much but the house had everything we needed and more! It was closer to civilization but you would think you were further out in the woods than you actually are, which was perfect! We especially enjoyed sitting out on the porch to spend our evenings! Much better than Hotel room!

Great Place for Social Distancing

We came to Knoxville to tour the University of Tennessee with our rising HS Senior. We were hesitant on staying in a hotel given the pandemic and found this VRBO home. This cabin was very cozy and comforting and located very close to campus. I will certainly look to see if this home is available for our next trip to Knoxville.

Swiss Cabin is ahhhhmazing

Where to start? This place is great. The owner is great. Clean, beautiful old school cabin from way back! You're in reality not very far off Chapman Hwy in the heart of Knoxville, but the location of the cabin would fool you into thinking you're actually way up in the Smoky Mountains. This is a great little hideaway for just about anything you'd wanna visit Knoxville for!! We'll definitely be returning, both of us loved it!! Close to most everything, as well!!
