The cabin feels removed from the stir and noise of the city but is also only five minutes drive to a Wal-Mart for convenience. We enjoyed the quiet.

Quaint lodging with nice furnishings. Very clean! Cozy once we got settled. Before you visit in the winter, verify the host will turn on heat as we arrived after a long drive in 22 degree weather and the house was as cold inside as outside. But, we will return if we are back in the area!

Cabin was cozy and private. It smelled musty both outside and in. Some areas were not clean, the blinds, the window sills and wells inside were full of bugs, kitchen shelves, dishes and pans were not very clean, corners in bathroom and living area buggy. I left it a lot cleaner than when I came. Kimberlin Heights road sign is missing. Can only see the green metal roof from the road. The driveway is 45 degree angle steep. I can't imagine what it would be like in ice or snow. The recliners were comfy, but needed instructions with them. I could never figure out how to get 1 back in non-reclining position. Contact was responsive to all my questions. Lock box with key was a little hard to find.

This is a true vintage cottage with the associated pros and cons. We like to stay off the beaten path but relatively near town. This fit the bill. We knew it was on a road, but didn't realize how busy that road was. Im a light sleeper and just used ear plugs. Pros: Lots of authentic character Updates done well Clever use of space Personal touches (k cups, tea bags, s&p, dish detergent) Easy drive to Knoxville Cons: smells a bit musty due to age Small/Dark Road noise Bathtub rust* please read below The only real issue we had was that the clawfoot bathtub was heavily rusted upon checkin. We did not call the host because we did think there was really anything that could be done. We put the provided in-tub bath mat down and only showered. On our way home after checkout the host reached out to us when the cleaning crew got there and saw this. The host apologized and asked if is was like that upon checkin. They are taking steps to fix his for future guests.
