The cabin was wonderful. Cozy, clean and perfect for 4 adults and a dog. The host put the lights on for our arrival which was helpful since we came in late and the house was well stocked. The location was perfect, very close to downtown Knoxville and UT. Will definitely stay again when we return to Knoxville.

It’s a lovely, rather quirky, cabin with the owner’s personality imprinted on it. The WiFi and air conditioning was superb. The only surprise was no cooker: no hot plates or oven. We had to make do with a good microwave, but not everything can be heated in a microwave. It’s sited in beautiful woods yet only a 15 minute drive or so from the centre of Knoxville.But we loved the place and with that one proviso re the cooker, we can recommend it.

We had a wonderful stay at this cabin! We were in Knoxville for our oldest daughter’s graduation from UTK! I wish we had found this cabin 4 years ago when she first started college. It was cozy and relaxing to come back to during a chaotic and stressful weekend of packing her apartment, ceremonies, etc. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Lovely and charming cabin with very nice deck surrounded by trees but conveniently located with stores/restaurants nearby .We arrived late by car but the host had left some lamps on and that was so helpful when it’s dark.The decor was really sweet and the sheets on the bed nice & soft.I would recommend this cabin to anyone wanting a relaxing time in the woods with modern conveniences . The host also provided some very nice touches like beer mugs in the freezer & some bottles of water & some small snacks .
