Very nice location

House was lovely and well equipped for all our needs. House was clean and beds were comfortable. Plenty of pet friendly parks in the area as well as grocery stores and restaurants. We had a wonderful stay. The host reached out and provided recommendations of places to visit and eat.

Cozy as Can Be!

This was by far, our best VRBO experience. The house was perfect, and we instantly felt at home. (We even had some deer greet us!) The hosts were awesome, and quick to respond to anything we needed! We hope to come back in the future…. I really don’t see us wanting to stay anywhere else in the Knoxville area!

Hi Laura, we're so glad this was a good match for your vacation and travel needs and hope to host you again if you're traveling to Knoxville again! We wanted to make this a great home away from home and go a little extra when it comes to kitchen and comfort items.

Nephew's Wedding

We had a wedding for our nephew and wanted to be close so we could help. This house was so nice. Beds were comfortable and the deck was amazing at night. It was perfect instead of a hotel. Will book again!

Beautiful Weekend in Knoxville

We enjoyed our stay at Peaceful Retreat A-Frame very much. We visited Knoxville from Michigan for our son's White Coat Ceremony in Medical School. The property was located in an upscale area of Knoxvile with gorgeous parks and lakes nearby. The property was very clean and beautiful, and was even better than the photos. We enjoyed the outdoor deck seating in the mornings with gorgeous nature and birdsong. We will definitely stay again.

Wonderful home

Aaron and Andre’s home is wonderful! It fit our family needs perfectly. The open living area and outside deck was inviting and enjoyable. The bedrooms were spacious and the kids enjoyed the tree swings and running around the property. The home is nestled in a wooded area that is near stores and restaurants. We had one small issue and Aaron responded quickly and kept me updated on when the issue was resolved. He offered several helpful suggestions for dinner as well. If we ever visit this area again, we will definitely stay here!

Excellent for our large family!

We booked this property so our family (several adult children and their spouses, along with our teens) could stay together while we were in town for our son's wedding. The layout of the house was perfect to accommodate each family unit with some sleeping privacy as well as a large open space for us to gather together. We were responsible for preparing the rehearsal dinner (held at another location) so we gave the kitchen a good workout. I had brought several things from home that I knew I was going to need, but found the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to prep that meal along with several other meals throughout the weekend. The only thing we didn't find was a large mixing bowl (think pancake breakfast for 10!). In addition to everything you could need for cooking/baking, there were plenty of plates, bowls, cups, utensils for the 10 of us. The house and grounds were beautiful and clean. Our only regret is that the weekend was so busy that we didn't have a lot of down time to sit, relax and enjoy the property. Thanks for hosting us. If we come to visit the newlyweds again, your property will be at the top of our list!

Hi Cindy, thanks so much for the great review and kind feedback! We're glad you enjoyed your stay and were able make use of the kitchen (we love it too!). We found that missing large mixing bowl; it somehow migrated over to our house but we've put it back over at the A-frame as we know making a big batch of pancakes requires a good sized bowl.

A+ for A Frame

Y’all this house is stunning inside and out. The kitchen was huge and had everything. Some other features we enjoyed were the massive TVs, comfy beds, and beautiful views. We had three kids with us who loved the toys and play area upstairs. The owners were wonderful and very responsive. We had multiple opportunities to see deer right outside the back door! We highly recommend this amazing experience.

Aaron and Andrea have wonderful appointments throughout the house…. fresh flowers in kitchen, fruit and water for our stay, basket of personal care items in every bathroom and Cozy blankets in the living room. Our stay at your home made our family visit very special! Thank you Aaron and Andrea!
