We were in TN for my sister’s grandson’s wedding. We really didn’t get to spend much time at the property because we were running around visiting relatives. However, the time that we were there it was really peaceful and quiet. Loved the place and would definitely stay there again.

Very quiet and welcoming home with comfortable beds and furniture, games, dvds, large dining table, etc… The owners have thought of everything to make you feel at home away from home, right down to the neighbor just up the road with anything you forgot to bring! Nice little fenced in area for the pups. Nostalgic farmhouse with all the modern updates. We only stayed for two nights this time but did get to visit Bristol Speedway in Lights and eat some fantastic food at Nancy’s Family Restaurant! Will definitely be back!

One of our favorite vacation rentals! The owners added so many personal touches to make sure that their guests were comfortable. We had snacks and keurig pods in the kitchen; toppers on the beds; three separate sleep spaces; and a washer, dryer, and dishwasher. Everything had been remodeled and there were plenty of outlets for our electronic devices. Billie and John were friendly and helpful. We hope to return!
