Just what we needed. We were visiting our daughter at ETSU and it was a perfect landing place for the family. We really enjoyed being able to walk over to campus so easily. The house gave us plenty of room to spread out, cook in the kitchen, and just enjoy our time in JC.

We could not have been more pleased with how our stay went. The house was a perfect location for us while down in Johnson City for a softball tournament. The property was clean, comfortable and super convenient. We also don’t have enough wonderful things to say about the owner Liang. After we had booked our stay my work schedule caused an issue with our arrival date. Liang was incredibly understanding with our change and worked with us along the way. He was easy to communicate with and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. He was everything you’d want from a vrbo owner. I’m not sure we will ever be in this area of Tennessee again but if we are I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to try and stay here again!!

About the host

Hosted by Liang Gwee

Host profile image
Aspiring world traveler at heart, I took my first international backpacking trip when I was 20 and I’ve been seeking out new connections, experiences and food since. Being a host has been a blessing as it allowed me to meet so many wonderful people from across the country and the world and share my love for North-East Tennessee!

Why they chose this property

The tree streets are beautiful and convenient. Mature trees line the streets and the neighborhood takes pride in keeping everything beautiful but not stuffy. Great vibes reside here!
It’s also close enough to walk to campus or downtown.

What makes this property unique

It’s a 100 year old historic home!
My home is the best combination of charm and modern conveniences (central air).
I’ve got a spacious backyard and hot tub. My happy place to relax!
