Four years at UTK went by very fast!
My son just graduated from the University of Tennessee and our very first day when he was a freshman checking him in was at the little cabin and our very last day was at the same place. Highly recommend this was our go to spot all four years and we will miss it. Thank you.

Heaven
We were hoping for a magical place to lay our heads down, each night. We traveled 7 hours for the Smokey’s volleyball tournament. We were able to drive into the city within 20 minutes, parked!!! This was everything that we had hoped for and more. We would 100% recommend this beautiful chateau to Everyone, even just a couple’s weekend would be amazing. It’s absolutely Fabulous! We wanted for Nothing! Cleaner than Clean, Cozy, Private and BEAUTIFUL!!! We will book again for next year’s tournament. Thank you!

Host was very accessable
We enjoyed our stay very much. Cabin was clean cozy and had everything we needed. Host was great!, answered our texts and calls and was able to help with all our needs. She even made a trip over to the house to help.
House was well equipped even without a full kitchen. We made full meals and for the most part didn’t miss the typical extras! Beds were comfy, p was great for morning coffee and house was very central to everything in Knoxville.
We will definitely be back!

Lovely cabin with screened-in porch and ceiling fans
Our stay in the cabin was lovely! I enjoyed coffee on the screened-in porch in the mornings. Both bedrooms and the living room have ceiling fans, which I love! We had storms one evening. We did not lose power, but the hosts had provided a flashlight in the kitchen utility drawer! I had brought my own Keurig coffee cups but forgot creamer; the hosts had provided individual creamers. My bed was very comfortable with a soft mattress topper; it was much more comfortable than a hotel bed. The hosts thought of so many little things. The cabin is conveniently located near a major road, Chapman Highway, but it feels like in a cabin in the remote woods. Occasionally we heard an airplane, likely circling for descent, but other than that, we heard woods sounds. I highly recommend staying here!

Lovely tranquil cabin, very convenient location!
My family enjoyed out stay in this lovely and quiet cabin located very conveniently to anything we could need and also to Knoxville for our son's graduation from UT. We have four guests - my 20yo daughter, my 84yo mother, and my husband and me. We were all very comfortable in the two bedrooms, and the beds were great. The little kitchen and bathroom met all our needs and the family room was comfortable as well. The cabin was surrounded by beautiful TN woods. The whole experience was so welcoming; it was just what we needed.
