There was a musty smell throughout the house and the canister of air freshener in the back bathroom was faux... not what you want when you're sharing a bathroom. The traffic noise from the highway was a lot and literally an explosion from the construction rocked the house on the final day of our visit (obviously outside the owner's control). The house, though, worked great for our gathering of three couples. Another half bath would have been fabulous, but c'est la vie. We loved the privacy and the fire pit area. The living room was big enough for us all to hang out while the kichen table allowed us to gather for games plus the twin bedroom worked well for my husband to work during the trip without being disturbed. Would stay here again now that we know about the traffic, smell situation.

Perfect Wedding Week

Best week ever our daughter got married over the weekend and the location of this property was convenient to everything we participated in this week. The house was stocked as if it was my home from the four slice toaster to the cabinets filled with everything one could possibly need. The cleanliness was excellent. And the washer dryer came in handy. Thank you we will be back

Wonderful Tennessee Home

While the purpose of our visit wasn't comforting (we were traveling to visit a sick relative), this home was the comfort we needed. The traffic on the nearby highway was a bit hectic, but the home itself was exactly the cozy getaway we needed. Thank you!

Fun, safe place to stay in Knoxville!

Our group really enjoyed our stay at this location. Has plenty of room and we stayed to explore the area and attend a bowling tournament. The place has plenty of fun games inside and lots of space for a bigger group (we had 7 stay). We loved the outside space as the new pavers area was nice. The outdoor lightening and plenty of chairs made for a nice, peaceful time. The place offered privacy but was close to everything. Ubers came out with no problem. One bathroom is a little awkward with an entrance to a bedroom to it but no way for that bedroom to get out to main areas without going through the bathroom. But, we were all close so we didn't mind.

Beautiful vacation get away

My family and I had an amazing stay in this beautiful house. They really put love into all the decor. The bedding in the Master was so luxurious I struggled to get out of it every morning. The location was tucked away, but a short drive to everywhere we wanted to go. The only negative would be the bathroom situation. While there are two, the front bathroom is a half bath with no outlets. With us having a teenage girl it left us fighting over the full bathrooms one outlet to get ready everymorning. But other than that it was an amazing stay and 100% would stay again.

UTK visit & game

We enjoyed our stay here. Host, Jonathon, reached out in advance and everything was as stated. The house is tastefully furnished and comfortable. We had everything we needed even for meal preparation (bowls, pans, strainers, can openers, etc . . . ). I found a few minor challenges with the property: 1) the bathroom layout - one is between then main living area and a bedroom making it a bit awkward to use and the other which is shared by 2 bedrooms is quite small with old (squeaky) doors. The layout makes it hard to use the bathroom without disturbing the occupants in the adjoining room. 2) the property is densely wooded. The area surrounding the firepit is all dirt. This caused everything - adirondack chairs, grills, patio, etc . . . to be very dirty (I guess from rain splashing dirt & mud). It is also quite noisy due to proximity to major roads. 3) the ping pong table is in a one car garage located in the rear of the house and not visible to the firepit area 4) There is plenty of parking, but turning around to depart is tricky. Also, the driveway is super steep and appears to have washed out in the past. We missed the turn in initially, so keep your eyes peeled to the right as soon as you see the pond. All in all it was mostly favorable with easy access to downtown Knoxville and campus!

Great Family Weekend in Knoxville!

We were very pleased with our rental property in Knoxville. It was the perfect set-up for our family of 5 and a couple of extras - 5 teenagers total! The layout of the bathrooms and bedrooms gave everyone space to feel comfortable and access easily. The secluded location was very close to all things Knoxville and a reasonable drive to attractions outside of the City. Though noisy from the nearby highway, we still enjoyed winding down by the fire pit in the evenings. Our favorite memory will be sitting by the fireplace in the living room and our entire group playing a game (provided!) together on our final evening together. Kudos to the owners for making it easy to create a family game night! The beds were cozy. The towels were plush. The k-cups were appreciated. Dollar General was only a few minutes away. While visiting Knoxville, our family hiked at Fort Dickerson Park, swam at Augusta Quarry, ate and shopped at Market Square, wandered World's Fair Park, took a day trip to The Lost Sea (owner recommendation), and finished with a college visit to UT. We highly recommend this rental property for families and friends traveling together!

Week stay

Me and 3 other guys had a week stay in Knoxville for a golf tournament. We kind of guessed on a VRBO that seemed close to the course. We were shocked and caught off guard on how much we loved this place. It’s super quiet, up in some trees, 5 minutes from Knoxville campus. If you’re ever in Knoxville and need a place to stay for the weekend or week, I HIGHLY recommend this one. This is coming from someone who stays in 30 different ones per year too. Jonathan went out of his way to assist us, the beds were great, had kitchen utensils, we cooked. Just awesome place, thanks Jonathan!

Great birthday celebration

Our family stayed for our daughter's 21st birthday celebration. The house is well laid out, tons of space, great outdoor patio with fire pit. Yes, you can hear the highway - but not inside or at night. Location is perfect if you have anyone attending UTK. Our family had a great time visiting, playing ping pong, games and just spending time together.
