About this property

Tranquil Cottage Located at The Head Of The Sequatchie Valley.

*RATES: $125.00 per night for 2 adults. $25.00 extra per night for each additional guest up to a total of 4 people. Additional rates for cleaning, VRBO fees, and taxes.

*FISHING TOURNAMENTS: If you are coming for a fishing tournament, GPS puts us at 9 miles from Dayton boat dock at Lake Chickamauga . This is incorrect information! We have tried to get Google maps to change this, but they haven't. We are closer to 50 miles from the lake.

Come relax in our cozy 2 bedroom, fully furnished guest cottage located on 10 acres at the Head of the Sequatchie Valley, halfway between Crossville and Pikeville. We are tucked in by the beautiful hills of God's Country. There is something very special in this space between the mountains. Walk down to the Sequatchie river which runs through our homestead and enjoy what nature provides each season. In hot weather, dip your feet in the cool water or sit on the cedar swing and read a book while listening to the relaxing sound of the river. If you are looking to escape city life, have a personal retreat, or a quiet getaway, we offer a peaceful respite for rest and relaxation. We are next to the NOW-OPENED Justin P. Wilson Cumberland Trail State Park (open daily from 9-5) Also in Cumberland County, the golf capital of Tennessee, are ten championship golf courses. We are 20 minutes South of Crossville, TN, on the Cumberland Plateau which is home to the Cumberland County Playhouse, the historic homestead area, and Cumberland Mountain State Park. We are also one hour from the beautiful Fall Creek Falls State park. Other nearby waterfalls include Burgess Falls, Cummins Falls, Ozone Falls, and Rock Island State Park, among others. We are conveniently located 1 1/2 hours from Chattanooga and Knoxville. We are also 2 hours from the Great Smoky Mountains and Nashville. Our guest cottage is remote, quiet, and peaceful. Depending on the season and weather, we can offer a campfire down by the river, horse shoe pit, barbecue grill, and supervised use of the wood stove. This property located in the valley does not have cell service, although we do have free WI-FI, and if your phone has WI-FI calling, you will be able to make calls. There is no cable TV, but we do have Netflix, Pandora, and plenty of DVD's/Blue Ray movies for your enjoyment.

God's Country
We struggle to find adequate words to describe our stay. It's clear that this is "not just a rental," this is a home that oozes with welcome and peace. It's so very quiet. The hosts are respectful of privacy, yet completely available. Clearly, it's important to them that you enjoy and appreciate your time on their property and that you are comfortable. We look forward to finding an excuse to get back!

We were pleasantly surprised how beautiful it was at the cabin in the Valley. Larry and Beverly were the perfect hosts . We felt alot of privacy and loved the porch and view from there. The swing by the little river was great. We did a lot of hiking trails but our favorites were Ozone falls which was 45 min away and Fall Creek falls about 1 hr away. We loved eating brisket nachos outside at the Creekside Brewery . The kitchen in the cabin has everything you need to cook if you want to but would suggest bringing your food . We don't stay many places that I want to return to but this one is one of them. Hope to visit again next year. If you stay there check out Beverly's soap she makes. They are great and I bought some to bring home to friends.

Great hidden gem
What an absolute wonderful cabin. I wish we were there for more than the weekend. Everything was perfect. Very clean, the beds are very comfortable. The hosts really made us feel welcome. Larry stayed up till we got there, stuck in heavy traffic so we arrived hours later than we had hoped. Definitely a hidden gem and we will be staying there again.

Breathtaking
Larry & Beverly are wonderful hosts. We are so happy they are able to share a little slice of Heaven with us. The peace and quiet was just what we all needed. There was even a special sign made & homemade muffins {which were delicious} just for us that made us feel welcome. The view & the mountain air is breathtaking. The little cabin has everything you need for your daily accommodations & very clean. The beds were more than comfortable & we were well rested. They even had games that we enjoyed staying up late to play. The drive into Crossville is only like 10 miles. Which was very important to us. We will definitely be back if they will have us. Thanks Larry & Beverly you are truly amazing hosts. We loved it.

Peace in the Valley
If you need time alone to meditate and talk to our lord,want to be historically rejuvenated, just prepare to meet "rupert". and if you are searching for a reconnection with god's natural paintings of all things beautiful , i promise , you will not be disappointed. beverly and larry are wonderful . and unselfish.They have truly invested a great deal of thought and time to ensure your every need is addressed. They have made it possible for you to enjoy, at their expense, the small things you may have forgotten;examples like steak seasoning , tin foil,and even "evoo!" Now,for the kicker- Beverly has a warm welcome board with your names on it . AND --- she makes you homemade cake so you have a snack before you unpack.Scrumptious!! Now, i ask,why would you want to visit or rent anywhere but, Tranquility Cottage,in the valley,with the best host and hostess ,BEVERLY and LARRY ? Check all of this out. You will experience ,Peace in the valley.

About the host

Hosted by Larry and Beverly Maxwell

Host profile image
The Maxwell family has lived on this property for the last 30+ years, taking it from a wild, thorn-covered property to a park-like setting. Its original owner, Larry's father, Rupert Maxwell, was a WWII P47 Thunderbolt fighter pilot and was shot down over Germany and held in a prisoner of war camp for one year. Rupert passed down many lessons including his love for the Lord, this property, and the hard work it takes to maintain it. Larry and Rupert built both houses, including the barn. Larry and Beverly are avid outdoorsman. We love to hunt and fish, hike, garden, cook, make soap, read, sit down by the river and swing on the porch. God has blessed us with this homestead and we would love to share this special place with you. Coming from a military family, Larry has lived in several places, while Beverly grew up and lived in Michigan. Together, we share 4 grown children and 7 grandchildren. We are laid back folks who love our quiet piece of the world.

Why they chose this property

This property, our little piece of the world, is secluded enough to be a peaceful haven and yet not too far from amenities. We love it!

What makes this property unique

What people say when they come here is that it is so beautiful and peaceful and that we are so blessed to be able to live here. The Valley is a historic place where Cherokee Indians once made their home until they were moved out on the Trail of Tears. The first Sheriff of Cumberland County is buried on the State property next door. The Sequatchie river originates out of the hillside nearby and runs through our property and makes a great place to cool ones feet on a hot day! Wildlife pays us frequent visits that include deer, turkeys, fox, coyote, bobcat, and many species of birds, etc. Beauty abounds in this space between the mountains and if you sit long enough or wander with a keen eye, you, too, can take in its wonders and escape the real world for a while.
