Great But The Photos

Our stay was great. 8 friends traveled here from Portland and SanDiego for the Big Ears Festival. Clean, comfortable, more cookware than most properties I’ve stayed in in the past. Close enough to The Old City that it was an easy walk. My only issue is that the photos, having been manipulated for a hopeful sale of the property show a much brighter, whiter, fresher version of the spaces within. Somewhat deceptive. Regardless, I would gladly rent this location again for next year’s Festival. If I only knew the dates.

Old world feel

This home is probably 100+ years old and has been updated with modern amenities and beautifully renovated. The morning light streaming in through the many windows and reflecting off of the white walls and bedding, allow the exposed brick and amazing hardwood floors to take center stage. It’s absolutely beautiful with an old world feel! The interior of this home is truly like something out of a design magazine. But I’d say the biggest perk to this space is the ownership! We never met them, but the communication was the best of any place we’ve ever stayed. The neighborhood is going through a transition, so there’s construction across the street. When I mentioned that to the homeowner, he went and purchased white noise machines for each of the bedrooms and dropped them off at the house for us, while we were at the ballfield. That was such an attentive response, which we all really appreciated, because we didn’t hear the construction at all the second morning.

Would stay again

The house is in great shape and was clean. Instructions were clear and timely. access was quite easy. We were very happy to be able to stay together, my brothers family and I while we were in town to visit our brother that lives in TN. We had plenty of room and the rooms worked perfectly for us. everyone was very comfortable.

Cute home near downtown!

This house is absolutely adorable! Plenty of room for large groups, amazing kitchen, and great game room. Our group thoroughly enjoyed our weekend here and would 100% book here again. We honestly spent the majority of our time hanging out on the front porch and when we weren’t there, you could find us all playing games in the living room. Overall great place to stay and great host!

Nice older house

The house was nice and clean. The only negative things was that there was only two TVs in the whole house and there was no trash bags and no dishwashing soap to start the dishwasher when we left but other than that the house was nice and clean and just as described.

Perfect for an extended family getaway

We had a wedding in Knoxville and we had three families that wanted to stay together. This was a perfect setup. The house gave plenty of room for everyone. The arcade games were also a hit! Location was also great. It was minutes away from everywhere we needed to be! Would gladly recommend for large groups!
