Wonderful anniversary weekend!

We had a great time! The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The property is fantastic, and quite large. This property is very private, and we enjoyed the seclusion. The host was very responsive! We can't wait for our next stay at Muse!

Fall getaway

Very lovely home. It was surprisingly better than the pictures. Easy to get in the gate and the house with the instructions supplied via email the morning of. Very quiet and serene setting. Everything you need is here, if you want to cook. We chose to go to the restaurants. Papa Ron's Italian restaurant was incredible. The bed was so comfy. The home was really clean. The trails surrounding the community were a fun addition to staying here. An electric fireplace in the living room was a super nice touch. Being able to bring our dog made it our decision to choose this home. We highly recommend staying here, as you won't be disappointed.

St Patricks Day Stay

Floor had not been vacuumed An animal had dumped garbage can and pulled trash out over back area-I cleaned it up. The exit gate does not work reliably. Fortunately, someone arrived to enter shortly after we arrived to exit when we left this morning, as we were not able to get the gate to open.

Beautiful and Peaceful

We stayed for a few days to watch college baseball at Sewanee. This cottage is perfect location and set-up for 3 or 4 people. It is well equipped, clean, and extremely comfortable. Loved our time there!

Tiny House Luxury

Very nicely decorated and well equipped in beautiful private setting. Great for those traveling with a pet. Outdoor fenced yard was great! It was almost perfect but the bed needs replacing as it was lumpy and uneven making it hard to get comfortable. Other than that we would give this tiny home experience 5 stars.

Conveniently located for concerts at The Caverns

The home was clean and well maintained, and the wooded setting was nice. We appreciated it's relative isolation from other homes, which offered a bit of privacy. Don't miss the hike to the waterfall. Although we were there during a drought, it was still a nice walk.

Wow Oh Wow

The hubs and I chose this place for a mini vacation to celebrate 23 years of marriage and let me just say… I am so glad we did. This tiny home was exceptional! It was so clean (couch cracks needed to be vacuumed) and decorated so cute!! The setting was perfect! I have recommended this tiny home to several people, so hopefully they’ll take the recommendation. The area outside was just right! We hiked a trail that was absolutely gorgeous. County was under a no ban burn, so we couldn’t utilize the fire pit, but it was so peaceful just sitting outside. We both would highly recommend anyone staying here. It is perfect for a couple for sure!! The check in and check out was the easiest we have ever done. And I loved the idea of being in a gated area. Sooo relaxing and peaceful!! Thanks for a great stay and experience!! We hope to be back soon!!

ALLLLLLLMOST perfect :-)

About as close to perfect as I’ve experienced…very well stocked, exceptionally clean, private and quiet setting. Truly a refuge. The only constructive criticism I have is that the mattress in the bedroom needs replacing, as it is very soft and concave. It has a topper, so is comfortable enough for the average person, but anyone with back issues should be prepared to sleep in the loft where the mattresses have more support.

Great for a quick getaway

We enjoyed our stay here. It was interesting staying in a tiny house. This floor plan is laid out well and there was a well appointed kitchen. Be advised there is little room in the main bedroom for luggage but there is a washer dryer so Packing lighter is something we will do next time!
