We loved the location as the neighborhood was very quiet and was close to where we needed to be. The home was very clean and communication with the property manager was excellent.
Excellent stay for traveling with our pet. Large yard made everything easier! House was clean and beds were super comfortable. For light sleepers, the downstairs bedroom could hear traffic noise.
We had a great stay. The house is convenient to local shopping and restaurants. The home was well decorated and furnished. The owners ensure we had everything we needed and were very attentive. We will stay there again if we are in the area.
Cute home that was great for our weekend get away. Comfortable beds! Yard was fenced but not fully enclosed. Great little enclosed area overlooking the backyard.
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.
We had no difficulty finding the house and it was just like the pictures. We weren't actually at the house very much since we were so active with a wedding. The only cooking we did was one breakfast and unfortunately the oven wasn't working properly. We informed Mike about it and I'm sure he took care of it promptly. The house was very clean and we were all very happy with it.
Great property in a great location. Our host stayed in constant contact throughout our visit and made our stay super easy. Check-in and check-out was a seamless process. Highly recommend this property if you are visiting Knoxville.
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!
4 nights, convenient neighborhood in South Knoxville, close to restaurants and bars by an easy walk. Area is up and coming and has an exciting vibe. Home is spacious and well-appointed. Owners were polite and easy to communicate with. Overall, a pleasant stay!
We loved this house and location for our stay for UT game and visit with our students. Would highly recommend. I wished we had a car while there because the Ubers added up but otherwise definitely perfect for us! (Two families, 9 people total)
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!
My family and I stayed here for a weekend in November, the host went above and beyond communicating before our arrival. Check in was easy, and the house was clean and had a mid century modern aesthetic. It was cold while we were there but the heat worked great! The bedrooms were comfortable and nice sized. Would definitely stay there again if I were in Knoxville!
The house was very clean and well stocked with towels, paper goods and kitchen supplies.
It is as the name infers an Urban Island as the house is surrounded by streets on all sides.
We enjoyed our stay.
