My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit. This was the perfect location and property.

I stayed here with my sister for her birthday. It was a very cute property. It was perfect for a quiet weekend. Checking in and out was super easy too.
There are two small things I noticed. The first being the keurig had the descaling light on and the second was a dead bug on the floor in the living room. The bug being dead means the pest control is working!

This Cabin is super cute and cozy. My husband and I stayed for three nights. We really enjoyed the two lounging chairs with the massage feature in front of the TV. This house was very clean and they even leave a basket of goodies! One thing I would not recommend more then a couple because it could get squished but it was perfect for our stay!

This is a true vintage cottage with the associated pros and cons. We like to stay off the beaten path but relatively near town. This fit the bill. We knew it was on a road, but didn't realize how busy that road was. Im a light sleeper and just used ear plugs.
Pros:
Lots of authentic character
Updates done well
Clever use of space
Personal touches (k cups, tea bags, s&p, dish detergent)
Easy drive to Knoxville
Cons:
smells a bit musty due to age
Small/Dark
Road noise
Bathtub rust* please read below
The only real issue we had was that the clawfoot bathtub was heavily rusted upon checkin. We did not call the host because we did think there was really anything that could be done. We put the provided in-tub bath mat down and only showered. On our way home after checkout the host reached out to us when the cleaning crew got there and saw this. The host apologized and asked if is was like that upon checkin. They are taking steps to fix his for future guests.
