About this property
Hideaway from it all ! Holyfield Hideaway, Flag Pond, Tennessee
Quietly, hidden away under a canopy of trees in the Appalachian mountains, is one of East Tennessee's best-kept secrets - until now. Nestled above Sam's Creek and Oberlin Falls, the Holyfield Hideaway sits on an ancient Indian and buffalo trail - later becoming the old wagon road connecting East Tn. to NC.. Nowadays:), you can drive right up in your car - no steps onto the pavilion deck or through the front door. The 630 sq.ft. Hideaway is furnished with antique brass headboard, king bed, queen sofa bed, pack n’ play upon request, dining table with 4 chairs, kitchen & bathroom w/ standing shower. All connecting to an 800 sq.ft. deck with propane grill, dining table for 4, hammock and so much more. Create memories to last a lifetime while sitting around the fire, dreaming under the stars...
