    Location is perfect! Customer service is exceptional! Full kitchen, I came in town for a family reunion was able to make banana pudding and broccoli casserole. Cooked breakfast and enjoyed the back seating area. My dogs were able to enjoy the back yard as well without being on a leash!! Great place to stay!

    Older home with modern updates. The yard was a nice bonus for traveling with pets and being close to downtown. Great location!

    We really enjoyed all the space for family time! The large kitchen/dining area and living room were great for us to gather and play games together. We didn’t cook but the kitchen was well stocked. If you like coffee there are 3 machines to choose from!The backyard was large but unfortunately not fully fenced for our dog, and the outdoor furniture was less than desirable. there was nothing to start a fire with in the pit. The grills were also less than desirable. One needs to be hauled off and the other needs to be cleaned. The 3 bedrooms with king/queen beds were great but the 4th bedroom we planned to use was nothing more than a small closet. In fact it was smaller than the closets in the two upstairs bedrooms and should not be listed as a 4th bedroom. It’s essentially only useful for a small child.

    This house worked out wonderfully for our family’s visit to Knoxville. We needed to be close to downtown on a daily basis and it was a quick drive from this neighborhood just south of the city with some great restaurants and retail just around the corner. The neighborhood also was quiet and we felt safe. We brought our dog with us And the fenced in yard was great however, please be aware that the ends of the fence are open, so we had to find a way to block those off when the dog was out in the yard. The beds were really comfortable, and the house was clean and nicely decorated. The use of a washing machine really helped and the property manager could not have been more accommodating. She helped us at every turn. Highly recommend this house.

    We were in Knoxville to be with family and Urban Island was fantastic. You will understand the name of the house when you arrive bc it really is on an island of land! Very nice house with everything you could need. We had a dog we lost a few days before our arrival and the owner’s brought flowers and a dog toy for our other dog. Was really very nice of them! We will definitely be back!

    Stayed for four days. Great house. Close to everything you would want to do in Knoxville. House is clean and well stocked. One small thing: the backyard is fantastic but if you have dogs keep in mind that the fence has two opening that are not gated. We blocked them with lawn furniture and that worked fine for us.

    Stayed for a short weekend trip with our wife and dogs. The house was beautiful, clean, and the location was great. Less than 10 minutes away from most of the things we wanted to do downtown. The fenced backyard was great to just hang out with the dogs. There are two walkways out of the backyard which meant we had to keep close eye on our dogs in the backyard. Our pug was also able to sneak under the fence in the backyard in one spot. But overall a GREAT stay. Would absolutely stay there again.
