About the host
Hosted by Michelle Avery
We’re a family from Michigan who loves spending time together, traveling to new destinations, and exploring places that spark imagination and connection. Some of our favorite moments come from discovering unique stays and creating memories along the way—experiences we wanted to share with others.
We love being hosts because we enjoy creating one-of-a-kind spaces where families and friends can slow down, reconnect, and make meaningful memories together. For us, hosting isn’t just about providing a place to stay—it’s about offering an experience that guests will remember long after their trip ends.
We’re honored to share Shiners Shire with you and hope it becomes part of a special story you’ll look back on fondly.

Why they chose this property
One of our favorite ways to enjoy Shiners Shire is sitting by the fire and relaxing on the backyard swing, taking in the quiet sounds of the forest. It’s the perfect way to slow down, reconnect, and ease into the peaceful rhythm of the neighborhood.
The scene at Shiners Shire feels like stepping into a forest storybook. The neighborhood is quiet, tucked away in the Forgotten Forest of Kodak, Tennessee, and made up entirely of thoughtfully designed themed vacation rentals. It’s calm, scenic, and intentionally whimsical—perfect for slowing down and enjoying the moment.
What we love most is the walkable forest path that winds through the neighborhood. It’s not just a path—it’s an experience. As you walk beneath the trees, you’ll spot fairies hidden in the branches, wander through a forest maze, and come across unforgettable landmarks like a giant sword, stone formations inspired by Stonehenge, and a guardian dragon statue. Don't forget to make a wish at the wishing well. Every stroll feels a little different and a little magical.
The neighborhood is peaceful and family-friendly, with very little traffic, making it ideal for morning walks, evening strolls, and time spent together outdoors. It’s the kind of place where conversations linger, imaginations run wild, and the setting itself becomes part of the memories you take home.

What makes this property unique
This home is a fully immersive earth-style fantasy retreat, designed to make you feel as though you’ve stepped straight into the pages of one of your favorite storybooks. From the outside, the living grass roof blends the home seamlessly into the surrounding forest, setting the tone for a stay that feels both magical and grounded in nature.
The experience begins as you pass through the iconic round door, instantly leaving the ordinary behind. Inside, the home is warm, curved, and thoughtfully handcrafted, with stonework, rich wood tones, and organic design elements that create a cozy, welcoming atmosphere—often described as feeling like a “giant hug.” Built entirely on one level with no stairs, the space is easily accessible and comfortable for guests of all ages.
The open-concept living area encourages connection and relaxation, centered around a striking round stone arched fireplace. Multiple fireplaces throughout the home add warmth and ambiance, while each bedroom offers its own unique, imaginative experience, featuring carved wood details, stained glass windows, built-in beds, and playful fantasy touches that invite creativity and wonder.
The magic continues outdoors. Guests can unwind on the covered porch, soak in a private hot tub, swing beneath the trees, or gather around the fire pit for stories and s’mores. The home is set within the Forgotten Forest, a walkable themed environment featuring a labyrinth, dragon statue, giant sword, stone circle, wishing well, and ever-evolving whimsical discoveries that make the neighborhood itself part of the adventure.
This is not a typical stay—it’s a destination experience, perfect for romantic getaways, family adventures, creative escapes, and making memories that linger long after you leave.
