Great three bedroom house near Hungry Mother State Park and the Appalachian Trail. Good kitchen with very fine pots and pans for meal prep. House is very clean and the area quiet at the end of Owl Ln.
Had to book this in short notice while looking for a place to stay after the Bristol night race. House was very clean and tidy. Beds were comfy. Nice private location. House has a very strong "homey" feel. Will definitely keep this location in mind for future race weekends. Thanks Weldon!
This property was perfect for our stay in Marion. It was clean, spacious and had everythinng we needed. We liked that it was located just outside of town in a very quiet area.
Happy to find this option in Marion! This was an older but very charming cabin that was clean, very well stocked with supplies and anything we needed. It was like staying at Grandma’s cabin. We enjoyed it very much. Location was surprisingly remote feeling even though it was only a couple miles out of town.

Thanks for being our guest. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Weldon
Check in and out was smooth. We appreciated that we could have our dogs with us. Linens on beds and towels and wash clothes could have been cleaner. House was tidy and stocked with adequate supplies for a short stay. Overall the house was adequate for a few days.
We had an amazing time during our visit. The cabin was perfect for us. We left after a week completely relaxed. We fished, did some sightseeing, side by side (ATV) and horseback riding all within a short distance of the cabin. Deer pretty much every night outside the cabin. We loved it!!! Thank you so much!!!!

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Nice place!
Should not charge more for additional people on 3 bedroom unless it hits 6 people on 3 bedroom house. Other than that loved place. Clean, no WiFi, phone service is very low unless standing outside. Driveway is sloped. View is awesome from deck.

Lots of room, pretty woods in back
Positives: Lots of room, pretty lot on top of hill. Big kitchen. All bedrooms, kitchen and living room were large. Convenient to downtown restaurants and Theatre. Negatives: No dishwasher, toilets were dirty, have to drive thru a very poor unkempt neighborhood to get to property. Carpet seemed dirty. Very basic TV stations.

Thanks for your input, we take it very seriously. We strive to keep everything very clean especially the commodes. We live in a fine rural-American area where many neighbors are veterans. They treat people with respect even though they don't know them. Apparently our guests chose not to offer them the same courtesy .This is a beautiful rural area that other guests have enjoyed. We wish our former guest the best. We wish their future hosts and neighborhoods good luck. Weldon
For a location with a cleaning fee, you would expect it to be clean upon arrival. It had clearly been “spot” cleaned, but we found stained, dirty sheets, dishes with food still on them and dirty bathrooms. There is an infestation of smallish black spiders in the master bedroom and bathroom. We had no communication from the owners, instead found notes left around the property with instructions. It was necessary for us to use air conditioning due to unseasonable warmness, but even with that the “cabin” was so overly warm we opted to sleep over with family two nights of our stay for comfort. Comforts are minimal, with the warm water barely lasting long enough for two short showers and the shower heads creating a lack of water pressure. The supplied “limited” paper products, soaps and shampoo are also very very limited, we found a half roll of paper towels, a partially used container of shampoo and a used toothbrush.
Location is undesirable, do not be mislead with the title “close to Hungry Mother State Park” it is still a 15-20 minute drive. There is also a mention of the cabin being “river front” this is an absolute lie. The driveway is steep and rough, leading to a repair needed to our sons’ oil pan.
Though we knew ahead of time, paying an additional $50 per person per night for more than two guests on a property designed to sleep 6 is outrageous.
Overall I would not recommend anyone stay at this overpriced, outdated and uncomfortable “cabin” in a less desirable area.
Nicely located where it was quiet and beautiful. The cabin was warm and welcoming and made us feel like we were in our family home. I would highly recommend this cabin to friends
