Second stay at this property and loved it both times. Had 8 adults there and was plenty of room inside and outside. Loved the porch looking at the creek. Plenty of kitchen appliances and dishes to feed us all. Craig and Kathy easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Everything went smooth so reason to write them. Would stay here again.
We had a really good time at the “cabin”. Very clean and welcoming! Our boys loved the HUGE backyard and stream for exploring and fishing. Everyone was very comfortable. We chose the location because of the close proximity to Oak Ridge .

Had a wonderful stay. Beds are very comfortable, the house is stocked with everything that you would need, quiet setting , perfect for a relaxing getaway. Had an issue with the bbq grill and the owners replied immediately, grill was fixed within 30 minutes. Highly recommend !
We stayed for several days while attending a cousin’s wedding in Clinton. The host was great. The property is so nicely furnished. My kids enjoyed exploring the creek. We added a WV mug to the cabin’s Starbuck’s States mug collection. AC worked wonderfully. Next time we’re visiting family in town we hope to stay again.
This is a great place to stay. It is exactly as listed, clean, easy to get around, great fenced in areas for pets and children. The fenced in play house is a great addition to the yard. The climate controlled sun room is were we spent most of our time. Easy to navigate the community as well. Overall 10 out of 10 stay!
We really enjoyed our time here. It's very peaceful and scenic. We enjoyed watching the deer and turkeys roam through the backyard. The sunroom and front porch were great for relaxing. The weather didn't allow for roasting marshmallows but maybe next time.

About the host
Hosted by Kathy and Craig
We live in Texas and were looking for a “get away” property near family. Tennessee had quite a bit to offer in beauty, activities and history. But moreover, the people sold us. Friendly. Polite. Patriotic. Feels just like home with different scenery. The concept of a short term rental property appealed to us as we could let others experience what we so much enjoy.
