Great Stay and Beautiful Property
Jaclyn's property is an absolute gem. From the moment we stepped inside, it was evident that every detail was meticulously planned to create a warm and inviting atmosphere that truly felt like home. The breathtaking mountain view only added to the enchantment of the place, providing a serene backdrop to our stay. One of the standout aspects of our experience was the impeccable cleanliness of the property. It was clear that Jaclyn goes above and beyond to maintain a spotless environment, ensuring that guests feel comfortable and cared for throughout their stay. Her dedication to cleanliness truly sets this property apart. We were so impressed with our time here that we wouldn't hesitate to book again if we find ourselves in the area. Jaclyn's property offers not only a beautiful setting but also a level of hospitality and attention to detail that is truly commendable. It's a rare find, and we feel fortunate to have experienced it firsthand.

Charming and peaceful
My husband, our mini-schnauzer and I stayed at this lovely little cottage in early April. It is spotlessly clean, and well stocked, including with treats for our pup! Jackie is a wonderful host. The views from the cottage are beautiful. The bathroom is small, but Jackie has maximized the space and it wasn't a problem for us. The kitchen is well stocked and as we prefer to cook when we travel, we found everything we needed to prepare our meals. Overall, I would highly recommend, and we definitely plan to return.

Amazing location and guest house!
This is the second time staying here as one of our stop overs heading back to Michigan from Florida. Jaclyn is so thoughtful and helpful. The guest house is adorable and very cozy. Jaclyn provides so many nice touches, like dog treats and snacks for guests. And the view from their property is stunning! Highly recommend.

Host profile image
I am a wife to a wonderful husband, and a mother to 2 beautiful children that keep me on my toes every moment of the day! We work hard so we can play hard! We are an easy-going family and enjoy the simple things in life, like going to the lake, or playing outside in the yard. We love wine, cooking, football (Go VOLS!!!) and entertaining with/for our family and friends. We found our "forever" home in beautiful, historic Fountain City (Knoxville) and we are living happily ever after! Our "forever home" came with a guest house and we are excited to share it with our old and new family and friends!
