Weekend stay for Home Expo

Extremely convenient to the whole downtown area and especially to the Knoxville Convention Center. Beautifully decorated and clean. This was a very spacious layout. Newly installed patio with firepit. Every kitchen appliance you could every need with a nice coffee service. Access to a washer and dryer. Very nice linens and thick hotel quality towels. We will stay here again, as we are in the area for business often.

Anniversary, and wedding

My wife and i came to knoxville to attend our nephews wedding. We also celebrated our anniversary the same week. My wife found this property on vrbo. We are avid vrbo users for travel. My wife and i both agree; this was the BEST vrbo weve ever stayed in! I was amazed at how clean the place was! Not a spec of dust, cobweb, or dead bug anywhere!!! The place was white glove clean!! Major construction was taking place on a highway very close by, however, location of the home was out of site of the highway (good way), and highway traffic was not bothersome at all. Owner communication was great, positive, and helpful! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place! And plan to reserve again in the near future!

Fun, safe place to stay in Knoxville!

Our group really enjoyed our stay at this location. Has plenty of room and we stayed to explore the area and attend a bowling tournament. The place has plenty of fun games inside and lots of space for a bigger group (we had 7 stay). We loved the outside space as the new pavers area was nice. The outdoor lightening and plenty of chairs made for a nice, peaceful time. The place offered privacy but was close to everything. Ubers came out with no problem. One bathroom is a little awkward with an entrance to a bedroom to it but no way for that bedroom to get out to main areas without going through the bathroom. But, we were all close so we didn't mind.

Hidden lil gem

We had a great time at the house. Close enough to downtown, while being private and semi-secluded. Plenty of space for everyone, we had way more space than we even needed.

Great place

It was perfect. My only complaint was that there weren’t enough mirrors. It was a challenge getting ready to go out because there were only the 2 mirrors. And my 19 yo daughter really wanted a full view mirror for her outfit check. We made so tho and it didn’t stop us from anything.

Perfect house for family vacations, great location, wonderful host

The property was perfect for our family vacation. The sheets, comforters and mattresses were extremely inviting, the house was clean, and the location was in the perfect spot for visits to downtown Knoxville, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg. The host was extremely responsive, kind, and provided a lot of great suggestions for activities. He addressed all our needs and questions immediately. We would absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful Tennessee Home

While the purpose of our visit wasn't comforting (we were traveling to visit a sick relative), this home was the comfort we needed. The traffic on the nearby highway was a bit hectic, but the home itself was exactly the cozy getaway we needed. Thank you!

Knoxville 2023

My family and I have the following comments about this property: 1. The posting did not mention that one bathroom was accessible only through two of the bedrooms and that one of the bedrooms was accessible only through a bathroom. This arrangement was not convenient for my party of adult couples and singles. 2. The posting described the location as quiet. However, with no leaves on the trees to deaden the sound, the traffic noise from the Alcoa Highway was fairly constant. It was audible in the king bedroom as well as outside the house. 3. The location of the thermostat in the bathroom made it difficult to regulate the temperature unless the door to the bathroom was left open to the living room. As an aside, the bathroom door would either slam if not fully open or be difficult to open when closed when the heat/fan was on. 4. The house was well supplied with kitchen amenities and the beds were clean and comfortable. However, while clean, the facecloths were stained with makeup (?) or through general use and were not used. 5. Several of the shades/blinds were broken and could not be fully opened or closed. In particular, the blind next to the table in the living room was stuck in an up position. 6. The exterior light attached to the roof near the front door did not work, resulting in limited lighting near the entry to the home.

Great home for family with kids!

Our daughter was staying at the children’s hospital so we needed a place that was close and it’s only 7 minutes away! Very clean and comfortable home with all the added touches of comfortable beds, cable and many TV’s, fire pit and even games! They even have a high chair and pack n play! I would definitely stay here again
