This mini-home in the woods had so much charm and comfort

We loved the location, surrounded by woods, and was so surprised to find so many great comforts of home in this small, and very well designed, space. The kitchen had everything we needed, the bathroom and bedroom were well equipped. Great porch in the front and deck in the back, it was great!

Graduation weekend stay and retreat

The house was very comfortable, clean and modern. Enjoyed our stay. We hiked and used the fire pit. Close enough to the university for important graduation events. Great for our dog who had an area to play in. Would come back for weekend again, just to enjoy the area.

Wonderful anniversary weekend!

We had a great time! The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The property is fantastic, and quite large. This property is very private, and we enjoyed the seclusion. The host was very responsive! We can't wait for our next stay at Muse!

Beautiful and Peaceful

We stayed for a few days to watch college baseball at Sewanee. This cottage is perfect location and set-up for 3 or 4 people. It is well equipped, clean, and extremely comfortable. Loved our time there!

Great get away

We live in Nashville and just wanted to get away for the weekend. This tiny house was great and just perfect for the two of us. We even roasted marshmallows over the fire pit! Very nice and we plan to return soon!

Conveniently located for concerts at The Caverns

The home was clean and well maintained, and the wooded setting was nice. We appreciated it's relative isolation from other homes, which offered a bit of privacy. Don't miss the hike to the waterfall. Although we were there during a drought, it was still a nice walk.

Tiny House Luxury

Very nicely decorated and well equipped in beautiful private setting. Great for those traveling with a pet. Outdoor fenced yard was great! It was almost perfect but the bed needs replacing as it was lumpy and uneven making it hard to get comfortable. Other than that we would give this tiny home experience 5 stars.

Fall getaway

Very lovely home. It was surprisingly better than the pictures. Easy to get in the gate and the house with the instructions supplied via email the morning of. Very quiet and serene setting. Everything you need is here, if you want to cook. We chose to go to the restaurants. Papa Ron's Italian restaurant was incredible. The bed was so comfy. The home was really clean. The trails surrounding the community were a fun addition to staying here. An electric fireplace in the living room was a super nice touch. Being able to bring our dog made it our decision to choose this home. We highly recommend staying here, as you won't be disappointed.

ALLLLLLLMOST perfect :-)

About as close to perfect as I’ve experienced…very well stocked, exceptionally clean, private and quiet setting. Truly a refuge. The only constructive criticism I have is that the mattress in the bedroom needs replacing, as it is very soft and concave. It has a topper, so is comfortable enough for the average person, but anyone with back issues should be prepared to sleep in the loft where the mattresses have more support.

St Patricks Day Stay

Floor had not been vacuumed An animal had dumped garbage can and pulled trash out over back area-I cleaned it up. The exit gate does not work reliably. Fortunately, someone arrived to enter shortly after we arrived to exit when we left this morning, as we were not able to get the gate to open.

Wow Oh Wow

The hubs and I chose this place for a mini vacation to celebrate 23 years of marriage and let me just say… I am so glad we did. This tiny home was exceptional! It was so clean (couch cracks needed to be vacuumed) and decorated so cute!! The setting was perfect! I have recommended this tiny home to several people, so hopefully they’ll take the recommendation. The area outside was just right! We hiked a trail that was absolutely gorgeous. County was under a no ban burn, so we couldn’t utilize the fire pit, but it was so peaceful just sitting outside. We both would highly recommend anyone staying here. It is perfect for a couple for sure!! The check in and check out was the easiest we have ever done. And I loved the idea of being in a gated area. Sooo relaxing and peaceful!! Thanks for a great stay and experience!! We hope to be back soon!!
