Stayed Dec 23, 2025This architectural gem was exceptional! We were here for 5 days over Christmas and it exceeded all expectations. Very comfortable, with thoughtfully curated furnishings throughout and everything you need. The bed I slept in was so comfortable that I’m thinking of buying one just like it for home. Candace went above and beyond to make our stay a delight. The holiday decorations and Christmas tree were a wonderful touch. We hope to stay here again whenever our travel takes us to Knoxville!

Stayed Jul 3, 2024The Daniel house is so specail. It brings you back in time and it just put me, my wife and our 2 guests in a state of relaxation and peace. The site itself is tucked away and even though you're a stones throw away from downtown Knoxville it feels like your in the country. Every time I walked around I found amazingly crafted details (being an Architecture graduate and developer I guess adds to my nerdiness) that I marveled at. The owner had a binder that had articles of how this building came to existance. I think I spent an entire afternoon alone reading about the houses history. As far as the condition of the house, it was very clean and well maintained. I highly recommend staying at the Daniel House and so glad we chose this is our lodging destination while in Knoxville.

Stayed Jul 14, 2024This place was truly unique! We really appreciated the architecture of the house! Very quiet area and all the windows in the house allowed us to appreciate the landscape. The house is close to UT and the airport. That was perfect for us because we had an event at UT and we needed to get our friends to the airport. Great place.

Stayed Dec 24, 2023I have stayed in no less than 50 vrbo’s throughout the country and this place is an absolute gem for the Knoxville area. Minutes from everywhere, the home provides a unique space for entertaining, working or just simply relaxing. Daniel House with its updated utilities juxtaposed to its Warhol-ish design is the perfect dinner party setting. Saturdays next fall should be magical. If able, you should definitely plan your trip to Knoxville around DanielHouse’s availability. Five stars.
