Absolutely a cute little cottage close to all kinds of activities and food options. Extremely clean and exceptional kitchenware. Often these rentals don’t have much but this one was well stocked. I love that it was pet friendly although we weren’t able to bring our fur baby with us. Will definitely use again and will recommend to our friends!

The house was very clean and well stocked. The kids loved all the toys and board games. The back yard was a little small but it was enough room for both of our large dogs to go out and exercise.

Great rental in a good location. Everything was clean and ready for us when we got there and the communication with the host made checking in and out a breeze. Super close to downtown and close but not too close to the freeway which made getting out of the city super quick.

We have stayed in Tammy‘s properties several times. As always the house was very clean and ready for us when we got there. The check-in process is very easy. Tammy responds to messages very quickly. The property is pet friendly. It’s an excellent location if you were going to anything at Mccallie It’s easy to get downtown also. I highly recommend that you check out her gardens when you’re there. It’s a great place to watch a sunset.

This is without a doubt the best home we have stayed in. It was very clean and well stocked with everything you could imagine, as if someone lived there. Very comfortable beds. The perfect place for dogs and children. Lots of games and toys. Tammy lives across the street and is always around since she owns other rentals on the street. Very convenient location. I hope to stay in her one bedroom home when I come to visit my granddaughter who will be attending UTC. It will be a great place for families coming to graduation and needing lots of room. I just can’t say enough good things about it.

If I could have given more than 5 stars I would have. To start, anything you could possibly need is there for entertainment, for babies/children, & even some stuff for our fur babies. There is plenty of space and a welcoming comfortable cozy vibe while also being clean with so many towels and pillows. The real prize was the gardens the owner has obviously spent years of hard work and love cultivating it into a wonderful surprise with stunning views. If you love nature and art this is the place for you. If you like charming and cozy this is your place too. Can’t recommend enough!!!

It is a pretty spacious home, conveniently located near all the places we wanted to visit. There was plenty of room for all six of us to roam through the house freely. There was a discrepancy with price….the VRBO site says no hidden fees, but then added them to the cost once we booked. We went ahead and kept the booking because of the proximity to everything. Host has a playground for the kiddos and a nice garden to view, as well as several books to read and games to play.
