Gameday stay

We loved this house and location for our stay for UT game and visit with our students. Would highly recommend. I wished we had a car while there because the Ubers added up but otherwise definitely perfect for us! (Two families, 9 people total)

Perfect for game day weekend. Close enough to be there in a short Uber ride far enough to be away from crowds.

Fun in Knoxville

Stayed for four days. Great house. Close to everything you would want to do in Knoxville. House is clean and well stocked. One small thing: the backyard is fantastic but if you have dogs keep in mind that the fence has two opening that are not gated. We blocked them with lawn furniture and that worked fine for us.

Great location, great home.

Stayed for a short weekend trip with our wife and dogs. The house was beautiful, clean, and the location was great. Less than 10 minutes away from most of the things we wanted to do downtown. The fenced backyard was great to just hang out with the dogs. There are two walkways out of the backyard which meant we had to keep close eye on our dogs in the backyard. Our pug was also able to sneak under the fence in the backyard in one spot. But overall a GREAT stay. Would absolutely stay there again.

Wedding weekend

We had no difficulty finding the house and it was just like the pictures. We weren't actually at the house very much since we were so active with a wedding. The only cooking we did was one breakfast and unfortunately the oven wasn't working properly. We informed Mike about it and I'm sure he took care of it promptly. The house was very clean and we were all very happy with it.

Great location, nicely appointed

A great house, well decorated, comfortable beds. A bit of road noise, bring your earplugs. TV's in upstairs BR and living room, netflix already loaded. Kitchen has everything you could want. Great outside area for meals and gathering. Upstairs add on rooms get a bit warm, keep closet doors closed and run fan on high and you will be fine at night.

Great for family

My family and I stayed here for a weekend in November, the host went above and beyond communicating before our arrival. Check in was easy, and the house was clean and had a mid century modern aesthetic. It was cold while we were there but the heat worked great! The bedrooms were comfortable and nice sized. Would definitely stay there again if I were in Knoxville!

Great family retreat weekend

From reservation to check out, the host was very responsive and helpful. Great location, perfect layout, and all the stuff you need to enjoy your time with the family. Our three adult children joined us for our visit to Knoxville. The house had what each person needed with plenty of space for everyone. Even when people where up and moving, it was quite in the bedrooms. Easy access to downtown and campus. While we were out and about the 48 hours we were there, everyone agreed that we needed one more day just to hang around the house with each other. Plenty of dishes, cooking utensils, etc. The kitchen would be great if you were cooking, but we relied on nearby restaurants instead. Everyone agreed that we would return to this house when we are back in Knoxville. Do not hesitate to book if you are considering staying here. Much better than the downtown hotels for a game weekend.

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

Beautifully spacious home in the heart of SoKno with a large back yard the whole family can enjoy. Immaculately designed with multiple layers of chic decor that even the most discerning eye will appreciate. With three bedrooms and two full bathrooms the whole family has plenty of space to spread out.

What makes this property unique

- The home is literally on an island inside of a neighborhood. There are streets on all sides. It's very unique.
- The driveway will only fit 3 cars comfortably.
- The backyard is NOT fully fenced in. There are several large entrances without a gate in the fence. Please watch your children and pets when they are in the back yard. We recommend keeping pets on a leash in the backyard.
