A beautiful spot in downtown

We were here for our wedding, which took place downtown. The place was perfect for the two of us and the proximity was truly unbeatable. We loved the history of the building and the special Dr. Enuff (an east TN delicacy) by our host. This place has everything you could need and the host were very friendly!

Cute Eggplant Home!

My husband, myself and our 2 children (8 & 18 months) stayed here for a little get away to the Bristol race. This home was adorable. Very clean and accommodating. Our kids LOVED the train and being able to walk to town and the little playground. If/when we go back to TN we will be staying her for sure.
