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.

Swiss Cabin is ahhhhmazing
Where to start? This place is great. The owner is great. Clean, beautiful old school cabin from way back! You're in reality not very far off Chapman Hwy in the heart of Knoxville, but the location of the cabin would fool you into thinking you're actually way up in the Smoky Mountains. This is a great little hideaway for just about anything you'd wanna visit Knoxville for!! We'll definitely be returning, both of us loved it!! Close to most everything, as well!!

Fantastic
We stayed for parents’ weekend at the university with our friends’ daughter. You are very close to downtown, but you get the charm of a rustic cabin retreat. The cabin was built in the 1930s by a Swiss architect and has been beautifully renovated. It was the perfect size for our group. The screened in porch is wonderful. We loved having coffee out there in the morning. The nights were a bit cool, so the field stone gas fireplace was great to have. Beds are quite comfortable. The hosts are delightful. Responsive and super nice. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Just loved the place. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Rustic cabin in the woods
The place is exactly as advertised, Clean , comfortable and rustic. King size bed is comfortable. And shower and towels were very good. It is very rustic. The back porch is not as noce as we hoped but we hung out inside and we went to Ijams for a hike.

Hidden Gem
We absolutely loved our stay at the cabin. It was easy to find and get to. I would say it's a rustic/cozy/quaint cabin, which is exactly what we were looking for. We also brought the dogs with us and I was blown away with how dog friendly it was. The dog bowls even had a little treat waiting in them. The cabin was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The location was perfect being hidden in the woods yet so close to the city. Also, to anyone wondering, the the steak house was amazing! If you are considering renting this cabin, don't hesitate. You will NOT be disappointed.
