Serenity and Seclusion in Roan Mountain, TN

Welcome to our cozy cottage set on 14 acres of quiet, secluded land in the beautiful Appalachian Trail community of Roan Mountain, TN. Enjoy the sights and sounds of wildlife as you sit on the front porch and take in the peaceful nature all around. Spend time just relaxing or jump into the many activities near by including hiking, fishing, snow skiing and tubbing, antique shopping, golfing, ATV riding and zip lines, vineyards, Watauga Lake, Grandfather Mountain, rafting, exploring the caverns, Bristol races, area festivals, and much more. We are just minutes from Roan Mountain State park and the Appalachian Trail that offer many hikes and beautiful views. We are also close proximity to Banner Elk, Boone, Bristol, Johnson City and many other exciting locations with lots to do and see.

Our cottage sleeps 4 comfortably with a queen bed in one bedroom and a full bed in the second bedroom. The family room is the perfect place to gather and relax while watching our smart TV, playing games, or working on a puzzle. Phone and TV are through Wi-Fi only and work off of a satellite. The Kitchen is fully equipped, or if you would rather grill, we have a gas grill right outside on the porch. For dessert feel free to cozy up by the firepit and make some yummy smores while enjoying late night chats or even some fire side songs.

All seasons are beautiful here and we hope your stay is full of great memories and a time of renewal and relaxation.

Return Over & Over

I've had the pleasure of staying at Kim & Art's quaint and secluded cottage again and again. Love the place as my home away from home as well as the hosts... would not think of going elsewhere. As a remote worker, I have all that I need for my month long stays, great Starlink service, comfy beds, kitchenware and solitude. Check-in is a breeze with the key lock box on site. I will be back soon!

Our Roan Mountain trip

The cabin was wonderful. Neat, clean, well appointed. We loved the privacy and quietness of the property. It was very relaxing after a day of riding our motorcycles in the mountains. That brings me to my only complaint. I would've given a five star review, but that driveway. It was too narrow and the combination of gravel and grass made it hard to get up. The fact that it was raining when we arrived made it that much worse and slippery. Overall, we loved our stay and i highly recommend this property. Just beware of the driveway if you're on a motorcycle or low slung sports car.

Great stay!

This rental was perfect for our short stay in Roan Mountain. It was the first time we have been able to bring our dogs along with us on an overnight trip. The home was clean, well equipped, and had plenty of outdoor space for our dogs to explore.

Roan Mountain retreat

Just back from a spring getaway to beautiful Roan Mountain. This was our second stay at Kim and Art's lovely mountain cottage. Had a great time hiking with our dogs, who loved being off leash at the property. The cottage is clean, cozy and artfully decorated. Our hosts were warm and welcoming. We look forward to our next visit!

Amazing Weekend Getaway

Great cabin in the mountains, perfect space for my boyfriend and I with our dog. Lots of space for our dog to run and great change of scenery from our downtown apartment living. Trails are not far and a very easy drive! The cabin had everything we needed to make it a relaxing getaway, would definitely go back again!

Small enough to feel cozy but not big enough to feel cramped. The kitchen had pretty much every basic utensil. The property is well kept and looks great. Just a fantastic little place to stay.

Roan Mountain Getaway

The cottage was clean, neat, and with subtle home-like decor, but no clutter. It is super quiet, and evenings around the firepit were a delight; easy access to Roan Mountain and the Tri-City area. We were greeted on arrival by a goodie basket and smores gear, left by our hosts; they also left goodies for our Golden Retriever, Boomer, and a personalized note wishing us a Happy Anniversary. I very much doubt that we could have picked a better place.

Seclusion & Tranquility

This is my second stay at the cottage and will keep coming back until I find my own piece of mountain paradise! Equipped with everything you need for a short, or 30 day stays like me! The new pergo-like floors are elegant and the upgrade to Starlink satellite internet is excellent for remote working.The property is secluded & peaceful, gorgeous in the fall and just as lovely in the summer with the lush surrounding greenery. Love the cozy front porch to just sit and relax with the sounds of nature and wind chimes, or watch the stars and fireflies enjoying the cooler temps at night. Top it off with amazing hosts Kim and Art... they are the best :) You will love your stay here!

Great mountain getaway!

My husband, 2 dogs, and I spent the long weekend here for a much needed escape from Charlotte. The house was clean and thoughtfully decorated. Kim and Art left a beautiful snack basket for us with s’mores supplies and other snacks which we happily ate. We drank coffee on the porch in the morning and grilled burgers at night. We hiked a beautiful mountain with the pups and were lucky to come back to this beautiful, comfortable house to rest up for our trip back to the city. We look forward to staying again sometime. There’s a lot more to explore! Thanks Kim and Art!

Tennessee mountain getaway

Just returned from a week in Roan Mountain, tri-cities area of Tennessee, Blue Ridge mountains. Absolutely beautiful country with amazing mountain views and plenty to do- hiking, rafting, camping, touring quaint, historic towns, listening to great music... We loved the cozy cottage we stayed in. Kim and Art are great hosts who went out of their way to make our stay pleasant. The cottage is located off Roan Mountain Rd. The setting is private and peaceful. Our dogs loved the grassy area to run around off leash. The cottage was spotless and decorated in a charming country style. We had a great time and look forward to returning in the near future! We highly recommend this VRBO site.

Peacefullness

We didn't arrive to the cottage until like 2:30 AM due to car problems, we needed to be up very early the next morning and found the bed very comfortable and made it to our daughter's graduation ceremony on time and somewhat refreshed. The privacy of the cottage was unmatched, we were totally unplugged from the outside world for a few days, we never even turned on the TV. The place was very clean and we totally enjoyed the peace and tranquility of of this wonderful and secluded location. I would certainly rent this cottage again and will recommend it to all my friends and family. The host and hostess were very attentive and helpful. Thank you!

Serenity & Seclusion to my Heart's Content!

Wow! The cottage & surrounding property are magnificent & everything you could possibly desire for a secluded getaway. From the moment we (me & pup) drove up the private gravel driveway, I knew it was exactly what I wanted for my 30 day stay while working remotely. Quiet, peaceful, serene with no neighbors in sight other than the wild turkeys & visiting deer which you could watch from the front porch. The cottage is decorated simply in good taste with attention to details, furnished comfortably and equipped with full kitchen amenities which was perfect for my every day cooking and became "my home away from home." This place is treated like a home, not a rental. Comfy mattress, lovely electric fireplace adding to the mountain vibe, perfect sized TV for the space, plenty of hot water, central A/C & heat kept us comfortable at all times. My pup loved roaming around the property and our daily walks even up/down the driveway scrunching fall leaves by the creek became an adventure. I could go on and on... needless to say LOVED every single minute of our stay and felt a twang of sadness as we prepared to leave just a couple days ago. Kim & Art are wonderful hosts, just a text/call away, attentive to every need, treated us more like friends than visitors and provided excellent resources for discovering NE TN. I am grateful to have found them & their lovely cottage & will be returning as much as possible. Wishing them all the best and looking forward to seeing them again! Pat & Keeko
