Ravin' about Deer Haven
Our family all loved our stay. We had plenty of room to visit and play. We especially love the porch. We went over to Cherokee dam 3 mornings to walk and explore. The birds sang to us every day. Rita was speedily responsive to any question we had about minor things. I have a habit of packing many things we may need but the cabin had it all.

Wonderful vacation spot!
Home had everything you needed and plus some! Owner Rita was a jewel! Always helpful and prompt to respond to any concerns. 5 mins from town and all major stores but out of the way so you didn’t feel like you were that close to town. Quiet neighborhood, you are close to a marina so you did hear music if you are there for weekend but we enjoyed that too. Saw couple of deers who wondered neighborhood. All in all one of the best experiences we’ve had!

Tranquil Haven in Tennessee: A VRBO Gem with Breathtaking Views
Our recent stay at this VRBO rental cabin in Jefferson City, Tennessee, during our time attending a football conference at Carson-Newman University.
Tucked away in the serene countryside, yet conveniently close to the university, this cabin provided a peaceful retreat with charming views and comfortable accommodations.
Perched on a gentle slope, the cabin offered lovely views of the surrounding landscape. the rolling hills and dense forests provided a tranquil backdrop for our stay. We found ourselves drawn to the deck each morning, savoring our coffee while soaking in the peaceful atmosphere.
Inside, the cabin exuded a cozy charm that immediately put us at ease. The rustic decor and comfortable furnishings created a warm and inviting ambiance. The open-plan layout allowed for easy socializing, whether we were preparing meals in the well-equipped kitchen or lounging in the living room after a long day.
During our downtime, we explored the nearby outdoor activities, including fishing spots. While we didn't venture far, we appreciated the opportunity to experience the natural beauty of the Tennessee countryside.
One of the highlights of our stay was the cabin's proximity to Carson-Newman University. Just a short drive away, we found it convenient to attend the football conference while still enjoying the tranquility of our retreat.
Throughout our stay, the hosts were attentive and accommodating. Top notch

What a great cabin. Has everything you need, pots, pans, dishes, etc. Great covered patio that looks out to the lake. Very clean, plenty of towels, blankets,etc. Plenty of wildlife as well. A lot of room. We only had 5 but 8 people wouldn't be a problem. I would definitely recommend.

Beautiful house on a lake
The photos of this place do not do it justice!
We had a large family event and booked multiple cabins in the area, and this one had the best kitchen! I know that’s probably not what most people look for in a vacation home, but I loved it! Ha!
On to things most people care about, the living space was comfortable and easily accommodated a large group. The front patio was comfy and had a great view of the lake. I loved the recliners with a view! Great place to relax after a long day.
The owner was super kind, responsive and very helpful.

Spring relaxation
We were there for a family reunion of people from 4 states. We loved the cabin, especially the large porch with plenty of chairs for all. The weather was rainy on a couple days so we huddled at the firepit on the porch. We were able to enjoy the lake and kayaks on the sunny day. Well stocked amenities. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owner was very responsive and helpful.
