Family Events in Bristol

We have family in the area and came for a couple milestone birthday parties. We travel to the Bristol/jJohnson City area at least 4 times a year. This was by far the nicest VRBO that we have stayed in. Thanks for the hospitality!

Great stay on family roadtrip

We found our one night stay in Bristol rejuvenating after a long day in the car. The hosts have thought of so many helpful ways to make their home comfortable for travelers. Home has been nicely decorated and is very close to the interstate, but still feels quiet and peaceful.

Bristol Escape

This house was in a quiet location but close to Bristol’s main shopping and restaurant area. The house was exceptionally clean, very comfortable and made us feel at home. The outside patio area was lovely to relax in the sun and it has all the amenities you would require. Jennifer was very responsive with any questions and was an excellent host.

Great stay in Bristol!

Property was exactly as described in listing. We really enjoyed the extra touches all throughout the property. From the snacks and coffee bar to the extras in the bathroom, there’s nothing that hasn’t been thought about for guests. Communication was great with the owners and they made sure to check in with us to ensure everything was going well. We will definitely stay here for all future trips to the area! We highly recommend eating at Bloom and visiting the Michael Waltrip Brewery for great craft beer and tasty food.

Perfect overnight stay

My husband, son, daughter and I stayed here for one night on our way to college move-in. What a pleasant space to walk in to after a full day in the car! Tastefully decorated with new furnishings, it felt like home. The neighborhood was quiet so we got a good night’s sleep. We didn’t have the opportunity to take advantage of the fire pit or hot tub, but maybe next time!
