About this house rental
Townhouse is centrally located on highway TN 62. Here's just how convenient shopping, dining and fun is to my home. Go east and less than one mile on Oak Ridge Highway, TN 62, and there is a Walgreens and a brand new Ingle's super market. Close by is highway TN 162 which is a freeway to the west side of Knoxville, where your will find upscale shopping, restaurants and a Kroger or a Publix super market just off the freeway. And finally, if you drive North West to the town of Oak Ridge which is about 10+ minutes away, it too is overflowing with good restaurants and shopping. The only transportation/logistics drawback that we are aware of is that Oak Ridge highway, TN 62, is very busy during am and pm rush hours. But, with a little planning of your departures and arrivals you can schedule around any inconvenience.

House was very comfortable. The pictures don’t show all the improvements to the home and furniture and we were pleasantly surprised at all the differences. All the beds, the king bed and the bunk beds have super comfortable mattresses. The bunk beds have 10 inch adult mattresses. And the home was spotless. This is the third house that I have stayed at in this neighborhood. It is clear to me, that this location is very safe with kids outside playing and primary made up with hard working families. The covered back porch is where we sat and had morning coffee. Not certain when I'll be back to Knoxville, but I will be checking to see if this house is available again when I do.

Steep stairs to entrance and especially to bedrooms Loved code for easy check in. Owner allowed us to check in a little earlier.
Nice size rooms. Lots of hooks for hanging clothes, towels. Really liked the openness of the living room and dining room. A plus to have coffee provided. Kitchen was well equipped.
No hair dryer, body wash/bar soap, dish cloth to clean dishes or ice.

Clean. Smelled great. Some modernizing made it feel like home. Nothing fancy but for $81 a night we cannot complain! Extra quiet neighborhood. This is 1/2 of a two unit duplex...there was no one in the next door location while we were there so we can't comment on what that would be like but the amenities were great for an extremely affordable price. Completely accessible to UT and great food! Tecommend Corner16 restaurant BIGTIME! Also Honeybee Coffee was fantastic and if you want flowers for your sweetie "Flourish Flowers" was in Front of Honeybee Coffee in a 1967 mini-econoline truck and is adorable!!

The location was perfect. The duplex was clean and tidy. The ONLY thing that was an issue - and it was my fault for not checking on this prior - is there's only one bathroom. This made it a bit difficult to get ready and out the door in a reasonable time. Again, this is MY FAULT for not checking. Regardless. I would have still booked the property.

Nice place. Only 2 small complaints: there was a bleach-y smell in the kitchen when we arrived that I found rather gross, and there was no laundry soap provided. Otherwise the house was fine. Nothing fancy but fine.

Not as listed
When I pulled up to the property i couldn't find the code to get in. It was hidden in the welcome message. The owner answered and instead of just telling me the code she made me search thru the message to find it.
As we were going up the steps we noticed they were cracked and crumbled. My aunt who traveled with me had a hard time getting up and down them for fear of falling on the steps.
The freezer had mold in it. I had to clean it in order to use it. We checked the washer and it was filthy. I reached out to Sheila about it and she never responded. We went to Walmart to buy bleach and cleaning supplies to clean up. The bathroom was clean. The kitchen was clean outside of the freezer.
Some of the furniture was not the same as in the photos.
There were bugs as well as a smell. No matter how much my aunt sprayed there was a smell.
I was disappointed with my stay. It wasn't as it seemed on the pictures at all.

Excellent Location for our Family
The Karns VRBO was the perfect location for our family to visit relatives living in the Oakridge and West Knoxville area. We we’re grateful that there was a grocery store, pharmacy, and restaurants within a few miles. Leaving snow behind in MN we welcomed the TN spring weather and enjoyed sitting on the deck and exploring the back yard with our two preschool age children. The yard was partially fenced in and open to the front yard and the street. Fortunately the VRBO is located in a quiet neighborhood so there wasn’t any heavy traffic.
The VRBO had everything we needed in the kitchen for cooking meals and we definitely appreciated having a laundry room with washer and dryer! There are steep steps to get to the upstairs bathroom and bedrooms, so if you have toddlers you may want to bring a baby gate! We found this VRBO to be very clean, we had plenty of towels and the beds were comfortable. Our only concern was that the master bedroom carpet, that was covered by a beautiful area rug, was stained and had a strong smokey smell. The owner quickly responded to any questions we had related to adjusting the thermostat. Her guidance was helpful and the temperature in the VRBO was always comfortable. Our family definitely would stay here again and we enjoyed our stay.

As advertised
The place was clean and comfortable. Only had one issue with the refrigerator motor being noisy and was resolved right away. The owner responded immediately and sent over a maintenance person right away.
The location itself is quiet and close to plenty of restaurants and stores. We had 3 adults and 2 children. Everyone was comfortable and there was plenty of room for us all.

Perfect for Small Family Christmas get together
This house was perfect for celebrating our small Christmas while visiting Grandma after she broke her hip. It was very clean, all bedding was very comfy. Kitchen was perfect! Clothes washer and dryer were the best. Only issue was the steps, inside and out. They aren’t for the faint of heart.

A nice place with a few problems.
It was very clean and comfortable sleeping arrangements and in a very nice neighborhood. We had a few problems which I’m assuming was something with an electrical issue. The heat stopped working and when we pulled out the space heaters we could only run one because of the breaker kept kicking. The stove didn’t work, the dryer didn’t heat, and if you tried to wash a load of laundry or run a load of dishes through the dishwasher it seemed to kick a breaker and we just couldn’t figure out how to get it working. The last day we had no hot water. We also had to move the microwave to a different plug because it would not work where it was originally located. I contacted the owner and she said she would have someone come the next day, they never came but with it being on a Sunday I understand that. Definitely hoping the owner can get these things addressed and fixed because it’s a very nice place.

Karns area townhouse.
The townhouse is accurate in photo and description. The owner promptly answered our questions and concerns. It is a very quiet neighborhood for sleep at night
The cleaning people should dust better as I cleaned cobwebs off the blinds and windows. There's a musty smell on the first floor maybe from being closed up a while. The bath towels should be replaced with newer ones.
The beds proved to be comfortable however, and we slept well.
Thank you Sheila!

Great stay with good neighborhood
Highly recommend this!

We liked the ease of getting to and from the neighborhood, and close proximity to Knoxville. Neighborhood was nice and quiet, at all times if the day. I say young or healthy because the sidewalk up to the townhouse is a little steep and a large last step to the porch surface. The stairs are definitely steeper than most. I have knee problems, so it was slow going, when using the stairs, which also made it very inconvenient for the bathroom being upstairs. I made it work by going down, sideways. AC started acting up the last night we were there. Owner answered immediately, and got the maintenance man to come out, but the AC didn't stay working, but finally cooled things off in the morning. There is a window AC unit blowing in the upstairs big bedroom.As for updating, could use some different carpet in bedrooms and maybe some paint inside.

Weeklong Stay
The property was easy to access; two codes were initially provided, one of which worked. We were unable to enjoy sitting on the deck and allowing the kids to play in the yard, as the neighbor's dog ran along the fence, barking and jumping aggressively toward us. (Obviously that is not the homeowner's fault; just be aware.) In terms of the cleanliness, I have rental properties in MI and have high standards. There was trash (candy wrappers, water bottles, etc.) under all three of the beds. I used the onsite laundry, but only after cleaning the washer's agitator because it was so gunked up with product and was moldy. The kitchen is equipped, but as someone else has mentioned in their review, there is a musty odor. Finally, I was uncomfortable with the fact that upon check-out, I needed to take out the garbage and other clean-up tasks, but not strip the bedding off to be washed... My recommendations for renovations would be to update the kitchen cupboards and take out the old carpet.

Comfy and cozy
We had 5 in our family group. Which fit all of us comfortably. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed. Quiet neighborhood made for a good nights rest after busy days. Would stay again when in Knoxville.

Ants in the kitchen
Ants all over the kitchen, absolutely horrendous. Probably should do something about the smell as well, smelt dingy.

No toilet paper?!?!
The rental only provided toilet paper that was currently on the roll. Once you ran out, you had to supply the rest for your stay! It is true that was stated in the details but who really reads every single line anyways? I guess not me. So when the roll ran out it was a bit of a surprise and I ended up searching the house for where extra rolls might be located.
I have stayed at MANY rentals through VRBO the last few years and have NEVER once had to stop at the store to buy toilet paper. It just seems like such an easy necessity to provide. It's something you can buy in bulk. Maybe just charge an extra $5 and provide the toilet paper.
