About this house rental
This is not your typical rental! It’s created for family fun and up to 6-8 guests. This 1,800 sq. ft. home is located on Johnson City’s east side, just minutes from Jonesborough, ETSU, the Med-Tech corridor, Kingsport, & Bristol, baby! Comfort was our primary consideration with thoughtfully selected brand-new mattresses, some new furniture and fixtures, and a well-stocked kitchen. This house is equipped for FUN with a pool table, air hockey, ping-pong, and video arcade console.
The space
From our experience, we have gathered all the basics for a fun family stay. It’s the little stuff like convenient USB charging locations, having measuring cups, vegetable oil, or even a selection of spices that make a difference! It’s complete with a comfortable tree-covered sitting deck with a propane grill in a nice neighborhood. There is also a fire pit. Shampoo, conditioner, and many other comforts are provided. This is definitely NOT a house for parties.
Our home is very dear to us. We updated and added things we have missed in other short term rental homes we have stayed in. It is a great place for families or small groups. It has some recent paint, fresh carpet, and some really nice updates.
This home sleeps six comfortably, up to eight potentially. The first bedroom has a king bed (2 guests) with a TV. The second bedroom has a queen (2), and the third features 2 twin beds. There is a very comfortable inflatable twin mattress (1) in the closet with extra bedding. We have a Pack-N-Play unit, high chair, and lots of things for babies and toddlers.
The living room has a brand-new recliner, couch, TV, and fireplace. The family room has a couch with a 55” TV, pool table, air hockey, ping-pong, and much more family fun! Lots of board games and books are available for you to enjoy.
The kitchen has almost everything you could need to cook a meal with your family or friends. We’ve got the basics that you don’t want to buy when visiting a short-stay location.
We have free Wi-Fi and three smart TVs with many free channels, local television channels, and your subscription app-based services like Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, HBO Max, etc.
Guest access
Entire house and up to four exterior parking places. Hosts are off site.
Other things to note
One well-behaved smaller dog or a cat will be considered. We reserve the right to refuse any dog based on the potential of digging or going over the fence. Our neighbors to the left have a few hens and a duck, and our neighbors to our right have a small day care with young children.

Great vrbo! Don & Tiffany were very responsive. They had everything we needed. Thank you so much for the card and wine. The pool table & air hockey kept us entertained. Good location to restaurants.
5.0 / 5.0
Very clean and comfortable home. The hosts were extremely easy to communicate with and very responsive to our needs. They pretty much thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable, including a great coffee station, with snacks and a welcoming bottle of wine.
The next door chickens were fun to feed, but guests should be aware there is a vocal rooster that doesn’t believe in sleeping in. We couldn’t hear him from the master bedroom but those staying in the other two bedrooms reported he was hard to ignore.
5.0 / 5.0
Extremely comfortable stay. All furnishings, decor, etc, immaculate. My boys could not stop talking about the game room, electronics, tvs; this is their second stay! Very interesting memorabilia throughout the home.
Feeding the chickens (with provided treats) was a joy and great memory!
Wanted for nothing!
Please note, if you can’t sleep through a morning rooster crow, sleep in the front master bedroom. I had no issues here! Couldn’t hear him at all! I do sleep with a sound machine I travel with as well!
Our boys did sleep in the back bedroom, but didn’t hear either. They could also sleep through anything really!
That said we LOVED the next door chickens and rooster! Very nice pace watching them outside over coffee.
Also, thermostat cannot go below 71 in the summer. Noting if you run HOT. We do typically, sleep at 68 at home, but honestly, we did ok, no issues! Just removed the heavier provided blankets! Fans throughout. No issues.
All supplies for coffee provided! And extra things, snacks, as well! Just perfect. Very cute setup.
Loved it, our second time in two months staying here. Would come again!
Memorable, lovely, CLEAN, and lots for the kids. They had a great time.
5.0 / 5.0
The location is great, it’s close to downtown. It’s also close to Bristol, Butler and so many places to enjoy while down there. The game room is amazing, it’s very welcoming from the time you walk in and then they have it stocked well for items you may have forgotten. The chickens next door are fun to feed with chicken feed. We will definitely be back to stay when we are in town. Thank you for being amazing hosts. A+++

We loved this VRBO in Johnson City! The house was lovely and equipped with all and more that you would need. The game room was enjoyed by us and our granddaughter. The owners were extremely responsive to any questions or concerns we had. This is definitely the place to stay if you visit this area.
5.0 / 5.0
The host was very nice and quick to respond. Enjoyed the house and all the amenities. There were plenty of towels and blankets. Spacious but still felt cozy. House was close to town. Neighbors were quiet and kept to themselves. If you’re a picky person the only two things that might cause you issues is the rooster next door starts crowing at 4:30am and thermostat won’t go below 71. I would recommend to friends & family.

The host was super- quick to respond to all questions. The house has some fun amenities! Thanks for the coffee, too!
We used the pool table. It was very convenient to our family event. Clean, no hassle, nice, quiet neighborhood.
5.0 / 5.0
The property would be a good one all on its own, but the host interaction (including the OMG bread), the game room, and the chickens make it one of the best properties I've stayed at. I plan to look for this property every time we visit JC.

Lovely home and lovely hosts. We would definitely stay again. Very much enjoyed getting to give the chickens treats!
5.0 / 5.0
We were in town for a graduation and had adult family with us. This was by far the best vrbo we've ever stayed at! It has a very well stocked kitchen, tvs in many rooms, and the game room was so much fun. If we ever get back to Johnson City, we will definitely stay there again.
If you want to feel like you're home, but better, this is the property for you!

Hostess was absolutely the best! Tiffiny responded to all my questions and was very polite and helpful. The property has been tastefully updated with modern touches that made the place stand out and felt very homey. Outside, the property has a chain link fence to accommodate the two small dogs we brought along. Overall, I would definitely recommend and stay there again. 5 stars for sure!!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. The groomsman really enjoyed their night with all the games. Groom enjoy the comfort of the couch. Definitely a most stay if you are in the area

Everything was great. The online pictures are exactly what you find. The hosts were wonderful. Prompt reply to any questions. Home is spotless and the hosts provide extras that you do not normally see. We were able to bring our pet. My grandson got to feed the neighbors chickens. My husband used the fire pit and the game room was awesome too. We had a blast. I highly recommend

5.0 / 5.0
This property was perfect for our family weekend. The owners were easy to communicate with and the check-in process was super smooth. The yard was an amazing space for our chocolate lab and the game room kept our kids entertained the whole time. Kitchen and bathrooms were very clean and accommodating. Bedrooms were cozy and the living room furniture was super comfy for watching the game. 10 out of 10, highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to have a great place to call home for a weekend. Will be back.

5.0 / 5.0
Not only was the house EXTREMELY well stocked with anything we could want or need, but it was clean, comfortable and beautiful.
We asked the hosts if there was an umbrella for the back porch for those sunny days and when they realized they didn't have one, they went out and bought one!
These hosts AND property are the best!
5.0 / 5.0
Great home away from home! Tiffiny & Don thought of everything you could think of to provide a welcoming & relaxing stay & were very responsive to any questions/concerns! The fenced-in yard was a huge bonus as our dogs felt more comfortable here than any other VRBO we have stayed in! The location was perfect as it was close to everything we visited while in TN. Highly recommend this property! Thanks again!
5.0 / 5.0
We have stayed in many VRBOs and this place, BY FAR, was the best. The home was spotless, updated, cozy and packed with absolutely everything you would need. From the game room, to the well stocked kitchen (that even included feed for the chickens next door)They thought of everything. The back yard was beautiful and shaded, the fire pit was the icing on the cake. The whole family was impressed with how much care and forethought was put into making this home comfortable and convenient. We cannot wait to come back! Thank you for making this such a great weekend!
