Quiet retreat close to everything

We enjoyed our stay. During the day we explored Knoxville and at night enjoyed the quiet of this home. My husband and son fished and played horseshoes while I walked the trail. Owners were quick to respond to inquiries. Would definitely stay here again when in the area.

Great location! Cute cabin

We stayed for a UT football game weekend. Great location to Knoxville and quiet and private! The house was very clean. The description mentioned extra sleeping accommodations which we thought were included based on pics. The front porch was so nice and we grilled steaks on the gas grill. We would definitely stay again!

The perfect stay

My wife and I were in need of a quick getaway after the craziness of the holidays. We always have loved the Knoxville area but wanted something other than a downtown hotel. We found the Little Joe Cabin and so glad we did! Everything about the property and cabin was exactly what we needed. This was by far the best VRBO experience we have ever had. The cabin was extremely clean, warm and inviting. The hosts were super responsive and very communicative; they thought of everything down to the smallest details. Even our dog had a great time and was welcomed with a doggy bone. We cannot wait to come back and bring the rest of the family too.

About the host

Hosted by Brandi & Kevin Rademacher

Host profile image
Welcome, to the Pond'erosa Partners! We are so excited you have chosen us to stay with, and we cannot wait for you to explore your cabin and our 16+ beautiful acres of rolling oaks, hayfields, pond, trails, and river views. We hope you will fall in love with the magic and serenity of this place like we did.
Your hosts are Kevin and Brandi (dad and mom) and Cole and Cheyanne (our kids). Kevin is a professional firefighter and was an Air Force Firefighter during Desert Shield/Desert Storm. Brandi is a Real Estate Broker. Cole, our oldest, is a commissioned Air Force Officer. Cheyanne, our baby, is currently serving in the U.S. Army as a Nurse.
We are world travelers and love staying in unique locations, including Airbnb’s and VRBO’s. If there is anything, we can do to make your stay more memorable, please let us know!

Why they chose this property

The Pond'erosa is all about family time. It is loaded with things to do to reconnect with loved ones, and with nature. The Little Joe is a real log cabin, beautiful and comfy, stocked with everything needed for a great stay. It has its own deck-mounted hot tub to relax after a long day of exploring. The 16+ acres are available for you to hike, and include mature oak trees and hay fields on rolling hills. Enjoy a campfire down by the seasonal creek that feeds a stocked catch and release bass pond with a water fountain. Bring your fishing pole!

What makes this property unique

The Ponder'osa and Little Joe Cabin is close to Knoxville and the airport, but far enough away to be with nature. We are about 45 minutes to Dollywood and Pigeon Forge, and an hour to Gatlinburg.
