This stay for my wife and I was incredible and very relaxing. The people who took care of us were certainly some of the nicest people and the food and accommodations were just lovely. We chose this BnB because it is right across the entry point to Rock City. I was stunned at the beauty and peacefulness of where we were and how close we were to great places to eat and fun things to do. We plan on making this BnB a regular stop and would encourage anyone who has the chance to stay here.

I had saved an old Instagram video of this place that someone had posted and we decided last minute to get away for the weekend. Absolutely loved staying here, it is so charming. Our room was excellent, spacious bathroom, very clean and strong a/c! Weekend breakfast was great and the pool was cool in the summer heat! Directly across the street from Rock City. Would definitely stay here again!

Is this really a bed and breakfast? The breakfast is below subpar We actually have got better at waffle house Everything else was great but give me an option not to pay for that breakfast! My husband took his food to go and threw it out(I never see that)
