Host-Karen was the best host I have had. If you are thinking about starting a rental I would recommend visiting this place and taking notes on how to run a business. Karen’s (host)follow up was amazing, from start to finish. Her recommendations from eating to visiting local spots were on point. The location is perfect if you are want to be in the heart of downtown with access to the great outdoors minutes away. We booked this place as our hub to go fly fishing. Remember you are staying downtown so you will hear traffic and the occasional muscle car, but the host has ear plugs, fans and white noise machines to help if needed. The down winds down at a decent hour at night. Not sure about race week. Highly recommend, cleanliness, professional and kind. A rare find!!

Stay at Music Mountain Loft

I make frequent trips to Bristol. This visit was significantly highlighted by staying in this downtown loft. The loft is well located, very well furnished but had a bit(or more) of "Bristol" ambience to top it all off. Great hosts. Would love to stay again if the opportunity arises.
