Our experience was nothing short of amazing! This home was beautiful, communication with the host was great even to the point she allowed us to check in early. Location was perfect as we were here for Battle in Rocky top. I do believe this will be our return location for future visits.

Fabulous charmer!
From the charming entry to the property, the cleanliness of the home with all the amenities you need we had a fabulous experience. My daughter could hardly get out of the car quick enough to go pet the horses. The owners are so considerate - leaving us a special treat when we returned from dinner on our first night. Highly recommend.

Suited us to a “Tea”
We absolutely adored the Yellow Teacup Cottage. We had reserved it for a football weekend before we had to evacuate ahead of Hurricane Milton. The owner was very flexible and agreed to our change of plans adding two days and bringing pets (laid back older labs) in our RV instead of flying to Knoxville and renting a car. Being a farm kid, I enjoyed the “little bit country” setting with horses, goats, chickens and geese nearby. We enjoyed feeding the horses the treats provided by the hosts and even had time for a bonfire complete with S’mores!

Cozy, cute and family friendly!
My family and I stayed here for 3 nights in July 2024. The listing almost downplayed how great the place is. We were traveling to visit family but needed our own space to unwind- as one does with little kids- and this was perfect. The exterior is adorable and surrounding area is beautiful. The home was perfect. The main floor was open, the master bedroom is very large- really us and the kids could have stayed comfortably in that room alone! The kitchen is stocked with everything we could need to handle the basics- and even make a batch of cookies! The beds were very comfortable and hot water came quickly in the showers which was quite welcome after a long day on the lake! This place is very kid friendly. The sunroom has games and art supplies and a beautiful view of the barn and animals next door. The best kept secret is the toy nook upstairs. My two kids (18mo and 5y) spent a ton of time up there- and barely even fought over toys! The stairs were easy for both my 18mo and my mother in law. Additionally, sound did not travel in the house. We went out one of the nights after the kids and my mother in law went to sleep and they didn’t hear us come back. Overall my entire family cannot wait to come visit the Teacup Cottage again! It really made our trip perfect.

this place is beyond!
i had no idea that we were getting such a package within this stay. it was outstanding! the drive back is tree lined and when we reached the property it was sat back, with a beautiful new horse barn. a circle drive and a stunning historic house. there bamboo lining the property, goats, roosters. none of the animals were around unless you called for them and wanted them to be, so they were never a bother. but we definitely wanted them around. my kids were in awful of the horses. the owners left us treats too. the house had big open windows so you could see them and the property from all around. they always answered any questions i had right away. i had asked about early check in and if they were okay with us getting carrots and apples for the horses. i side the home was grand, open, eclectic, charming and had everything we needed. my family decided since we only live 6 hours away that we want to try to make a point to retreat here every few months. -it’s also only a 10-15 min drive from most things in knoxville, so i just didn’t expect to be so “in town” and have such tranquility. 10/10

Home was awesome. Easy to find. Does have an old house smell and creaky floors but you get used to it really fast. My sisters really enjoyed the horses. And we all loved the decor of the home. And the kitchen had everything you would need to prepare a large meal. Although we were out and about so much we didn’t really have much time for dinners there. We all absolutely loved the home.

Perfect for our needs
We were visiting our son who lives in Knoxville. The location of this house was great…away from Knoxville but not too far and near the airport. The owner was very responsive. The layout of the house was perfect for the combination of our group. We absolutely loved the horses and seeing turkeys in the morning. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. We will definitely try to stay here again.

Amazing country oasis
We had a wonderful stay at the yellow tea cup cottage. The horses surrounding the property were a huge hit for our kids, lots of space for our dog to run, and the sounds of chickens next door was perfect. The house is well appointed/decorated and provides everything you need - bathroom products, plenty of cleaning supplies, and fully stocked kitchen. Only downside was it’s not close to any conveniences (grocery store, etc) and it’s on the flight path. But for us, it was totally worth it!

Four Stars but Not Five
Lovely, peaceful setting in a charming old house convenient to Knoxville and Maryville. Good choice for family with 2 BR's and bath upstairs, if needed. Well-stocked, modern kitchen and nice outdoor patios, grill, and firepit. Overall very nice but these suggested improvements would make it a 5-star property: A welcome call or check from owner would have been nice. When we called asking, "Where is the hot tub/whirlpool spa as advertised?" host said there was neither, then promptly corrected the property description online--but offered not even token consideration for missing a key amenity that caused us to choose this property over all others. (Dealing with VRBO directly was a vacation-waster. It took 2+-hours on the phone for company's agent in Cairo, Egypt to finally extend a very small credit.) Also, property could use a little more attention to detail: * no laundry detergent * no instructions for TV use of various remotes, most of which needed batteries which were provided after we called. * Nicer toiletries, i.e. bath soap, shampoo, and a hair dryer that blows more than a whisper would be appreciated by all guests. Property was well-cleaned and Ukrainian housekeeper was a delight to meet.
