The house was in excellent condition, very clean, very convenient to Knoxville, just far enough out of the city to hear the birds in the early morning as they wake up for their day. I highly recommend staying here, Ms. Kathy is an excellent host.

About the host

Hosted by Kathy Oglebay

Host profile image
I'm inspired by nature and enjoy the hospitality business. This property brings together those two loves

Why they chose this property

Hilltop Haven is close to everything but is snuggled amongst the tress creating a peaceful hidden gem.

What makes this property unique

Sitting outside later in the evening, you may hear an owl in the trees while viewing the stars and moon at night. The cottage is also perfectly situated to take in the early morning sun rise. If needed, grab a blanket from the living room basket, a hot cup of coffee and watch the beauty of a new day begin.
