Great spot!

The spot was just out of the way enough to where you have peace and quiet from the idiots with loud mufflers trying to compensate for small wieners but not too far from civilization. It's the best of both worlds.

Not going to lie, the surrounding area wasn’t legendary (Greater Knoxville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg) BUT if you know what you’re in for and still go - visit Michelle here.

Peaceful Acres

This was just what my husband and I were looking for. This place was very peaceful, especially clean, and easy to check into. We enjoyed watching the farm animals and looking at House Mountain as we sat on the screened in porch late afternoon. We highly recommend if you are looking for some peace and quiet.

At first, I was surprised that the rooms were attached to the house, just because the listing said I would have the place to myself, so I could hear the "neighbors" that lived in the main house. But it was fine because they quieted down about 9pm. The place was beautiful, very well kept and the area was VERY peaceful. I loved it!

Why they chose this property

After Paul and I purchased this property, we soon realized how blessed we were. So, we decided to share this wonderful place with people and give them some time to rest and recharge.

What makes this property unique

Our place is just beyond the boundaries of the city of Knoxville, hovering over the small town of Corryton, Tennessee, is House Mountain State Park: Knox County’s highest peak and likely its most beautiful outdoor spot. Supposedly so named for the roof-like slant of its twin summits, House is home to a wide array of blossoming flowers, climbing vines, and waving trees, and wildlife.
