Our stay at The Iris was absolutely unforgettable. Waking up each morning with a hot cup of coffee in hand while overlooking the rolling Tennessee countryside felt like a dream. Between the peaceful wildlife and the crisp mountain air, it was everything we hoped for and more.The cabin was stocked with every essential, and plenty of thoughtful extras: making it feel both cozy and luxurious. It’s the perfect spot for a weekend getaway, a special occasion, or simply a place to unwind and reconnect. The Iris didn’t just host our vacation weekend… it made it truly exceptional.

About the host

Host profile image
I've been in the Knoxville area for over 20 years. Hosting guests at the Iris gives me the opportunity to share a little bit of what I love about East Tennessee with others!

Why they chose this property

It's surrounded by trees, fields and nature. It's not uncommon to see deer and birds, along with other wild life.

What makes this property unique

It truly is secluded but within 15 minutes of downtown Knoxville. It's the best of both worlds. It's cozy and private and the perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
