Don's North Hills · Mid-Century Rancher in Historic North Hills

The home is located on the central-east side of Knoxville in the historic North Hills neighborhood, great for walking with your furry friends! It is a very nice, quiet and safe area that is both convenient to downtown and heading east to the Gatlinburg - Pigeon Forge area. It is located 1.2 miles off I-40 (4 minutes from exit 390). It is perfect for a one-night stay when passing through Knoxville, a weekend exploring downtown and football, or longer vacations exploring the Smoky Mountains.

There are 3 bedrooms, all with queen sized mattresses and one central bath. The kitchen is fully equipped for homemade meals and there is a propane grill on the patio. All towels, linens and basic toiletries are provided. This is a very pet friendly neighborhood, and the house is located on a tree lined boulevard in which to walk your pet. The backyard is fully fenced, but the lighting is very limited on the far back side.
.
The house has a semi-open floor plan and is full of light. There is a 50" smart TV. Complimentary Wi-fi allows you to access Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, etc. plus local channels. A washer and dryer are located in the basement garage with inside access directly off the kitchen.

Note: the front door access is up a flight of stairs from the driveway. The driveway is about 45 feet long and can easily hold two (maybe three small) vehicles. There is room for parking on the street, but do NOT park in the boulevard median - the city may tow your vehicle.

Guests will be able to access the house with limited interaction with the host. We will provide a code to a keypad lock on the day of your stay. You may check in anytime after 4PM.

If bringing animals to property, we ask that they stay off all furniture including, but not limited to, beds and couches. If we find excessive pet hair on these items, we may charge an additional cleaning fee. We ask that you clean-up after your pet - for your convenience poop-bags are located on the back patio and at the main entrance.

If check-in/check-out times are violated without communication with host, we will automatically charge a $25 fee.

If the house smells like smoke or marijuana or we find any evidence of smoking in the house (ashes, cigarettes, etc.), we will charge you an automatic $250 fee and leave you a negative review.
During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be close to University of Tennessee. Enjoy your stay with amenities like a kitchen and a balcony in the vacation home.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine, and balcony
  • 8 minutes by car from University of Tennessee and 6 minutes from Knoxville Zoo
This vacation home offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

Great place!
We (family of 4 plus dog) stopped over on a road trip. The home is comfortable, clean, with thoughtful extras like coffee and games. The neighborhood is very nice and property photos accurate. Other reviewers mentioned an odor, which was present, but not overwhelming or an issue for us. The owner was very friendly, communication was great, and check in was easy. I would stay again and recommend.

We stayed the week of Thanksgiving. This house was perfect in every way for my two adult children and their others. Jeff is one of the best hosts we have had with multiplel VRBO stays in our past. He checked in on our needs and responded quickly to any questions plus gave us tips on where to dine and visit. We'll be making multiple trips back to the area and this one is on top of the list for our small group.

Possibly our worst Vrbo or Air B&B ever
The musty/mildew/mold odor was pervasive and impossible to ignore. Ran air purifiers continually. Each time re-entering the house it was starkly obvious. All of our clothing will need to be laundered when we return home, including outerwear because of the odor. No doubt the furniture in the home is embedded with spores. We can still smell the odor now, traveling in our car. I honestly would not bring my family, especially 6 y.o. granddaughter, into this environment - I'm sure you would feel the same about your children and adult health as well. We would NOT rent this property again and are of the opinion there is need for serious remediation of moisture for general ambiance and health concerns. Apparently there are no CDC guidelines nor TN authority to inspect rental properties for mold issues. Tried to share this with "owner" prior to posting for some sort of response. The "Team" failed to provide any concerned response. There were other cleanliness issues submitted to owner (kitchen) but the unhealthy odor overshadowed the entire stay. Skeptical of the 2 positive reviews on Vrbo. Mildew smell mentioned in numerous Air B&B reviews (which I unfortunately did not check) so not something new. We have stayed in numerous Vrbo and Air B&B properties in various locations and this was far and away worst. So disappointing for this great location and property description. Walk away!!

Great overnight stay
The place was very clean, in a beautiful neighborhood, and accessible to downtown. My family was in for a concert and had all we needed for our time in town.
