I can honestly say this is the cleanest and most comfortable place that I have ever stayed away from home. Visited this area for my daughter's wedding this week-end and having an inviting and pleasant place to stay in between times meant a lot. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to others.
Super cute cottage! It was cozy and very close to Burgess falls and an easy drive to other nearby state parks.

Thank you for your kind feedback! We're so glad you enjoyed the cozy cottage and its convenient location near Burgess Falls and other parks. We’d love to host you again!
House was great for us. We stay in Sparta several times a year as my daughter and grandchildren live there. We always stay at a hotel in Cookeville but this was so much better. Our only problem was response to a garbage issue. The outside can was 3/4 full when we arrived and was full soon thereafter. Asked about p/u multiple times with no response. Even had to send garbage to my daughters. Other than that, all good.
The home was exactly as described. It was clean and had everything we needed. It was quiet and we really enjoyed the location.

Perfect location for all sorts of outdoor activities. We were here as a family with two young children. The house was the perfect size for us. It was also super clean when we checked in which is always appreciated. We definitely would come and stay again.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear the house was perfect for your family and that you appreciated the cleanliness. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for more great outdoor adventures!
The house was clean, stocked with essentials and as advertised. We did a bunch of waterfalls all less than an hour drive. Would recommend staying here if you’re looking for a nice place to stay and it was cheaper then a motel.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The inside is clean and very charming with 3 nice size bedrooms with very comfortable beds. We all enjoyed our morning coffee in the backyard gazebo and I enjoyed working one morning from the front porch. Highly recommend this place, will stay here again!

Hi John! Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the comfort and charm of the house, especially the peaceful mornings in the gazebo and on the front porch. We look forward to hosting you again soon!
This house was exactly as described and very clean which we loved! The check in process does feel a little excessive and weird semi “like a scam” as others have mentioned however this home is just managed by a rental company so a little different check in than when renting from an individual who manages the rental. Would definitely stay here again should we be in the area!

Hi Amanda! Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We're glad to hear the location and overall feel of the home worked well for your family visit. We appreciate your notes on the towel sizes and TV setup—this is helpful for us to improve the guest experience. We’ll review these details with our team to make adjustments. We’d love to host you again!
We really enjoyed our stay! The property is beautiful, and the surrounding area is absolutely gorgeous—just about 10 minutes from Walmart, which was super convenient. The views driving in and out were stunning.We especially loved the outdoor space, including the fire pit and grill. It was such a great place to relax and unwind.One suggestion: it would be great to update the shower head for better water pressure.Unfortunately, we experienced some plumbing issues during our stay and had to cut our trip short. However, we appreciated that the host refunded us for the night we didn’t stay.Overall, it was a lovely spot with a lot of potential, and with a few small improvements, it could be perfect!
We found the house to be just as described if not better. It is beautifully decorated. They have provided the small details that make the stay very nice. The beds are comfortable and extra blankets are available for comfy movie watching on the couch. We were so pleased with the location and how close the house is to Burgess falls. We can't think of anything that they could do to make the stay any better than it already is. We were completely happy.

Lovely place in a really nice location. Was not pleased with the communication. Toilet seat in the master was so loose it could not be used. Informed the host and received no response.

Thank you for your feedback.
We're glad to hear you enjoyed the location and found the place lovely. We're truly sorry to hear about the communication issue and the problem with the toilet seat. That’s certainly not the experience we aim to provide.
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will ensure it’s addressed immediately. Your comments help us improve, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again with a much smoother experience.

This is one of the better VRBOs we have stayed in. The interior of this property is excellent. Everything was very clean. As for the exterior, we also really enjoyed the gazebo in the backyard and sitting on the front porch in the morning as the sun came up.
If you are looking for peace and quiet, this is also a great place. It's quite a distance from just about anything. It's about 20 minutes from shopping in Sparta or Cookeville. If you want to know what it's like to live in the country, this is the place for you.
I highly recommend it!
