It was a very nice, quiet place. The owner was very accommodating and always available for questions or needs of the occupants. I will definitely stay when I return to the area.

Our stay at the Wright Place was amazing! I cant say enough about our stay! Doug and Lynn was so nice, accommodating, and very thoughtful! It was both my husband and my birthdays and they had us a birthday gift with a birthday card! Just unheard of anymore, especially when we have never met until our visit! Like i said, i cant say enough or better still, i could write a letter about how accommodating they were to us and it would take too long, so all i want to finish saying is....we met new friends and caring friends!

This is a cozy little house in a quiet neighborhood - actually in the owner's side yard. Ample room for a couple to enjoy. Lynn provided bottles of water, coffee and pastries. Plenty of towels and a comfortable bed. Kitchen fully furnished including microwave. There is not a dishwasher but who cooks when there's just two of you! We were there in July. The yard had plenty of shade. It was just what we needed for our trip.

Wonderful cottage with a Fabulous Hostess

This cute cottage was clean, comfortable, well stocked and decorated for the season. The hostess went above & beyond to help us settle in & provided food & even some birthday surprises on my birthday! The Greenbelt Trail is nearby & we brought our bicycles, which we were given access to the garage to store them in during our visit. We had an excellent stay here & highly recommend!

The Wright Place is the Right Place!!

This is our second stay and once again it was excellent. Even though we had to last minute reschedule because of Hurricane Milton and we are from the Tampa Area, everyone was very accommodating to find another time and not lose any money. I highly recommend staying here if you are going to Eastern Tennessee. Very convenient to everything.

Absolutely fantastic!

One of the best vacation rentals ever! I was traveling alone and this was the perfect stop for a single lady. Lynn and her family were wonderful hosts. The cottage is on the back of their property, where you are guaranteed to see the deer they feed, a highlight of my time there. Lynn has created a home away from home and her attention to detail is lovely and so welcoming. I hope to visit again! If you’re looking for quiet, seclusion, and super friendly owners, this is your stop!

Amazing Cottage- Will stay again!

Lynn and her family are amazing and so accommodating and welcoming! ❤️ She made sure we had everything we could possibly need for our stay and was very knowledgeable of the Kingsport area! She gave amazing recommendations on activities and restaurants. She is truly committed to quality service with her cottage and it shows! She goes above and beyond for each and every guest and is such a kind and giving soul. We will definitely be back, thank you all for making this trip so wonderful and special! 🥰

Best stay of our lives! Incredible hospitality ❤️

I can’t even put into words how incredible our stay was at The Wright Place, but I will try! We drove up from Florida for our 5th anniversary with our 4 year old daughter. We were greeted by the host and her family who helped us carry our luggage into the cottage. It was absolutely perfect! Clean, cozy, warm, decorated for fall, stocked with SO MANY amenities, and even had snacks, coffee and breakfast pastries (muffins, bagels/cream cheese/cookies) and even hot cocoa and marshmallows for our little one. When we went upstairs to our bedroom they had left an anniversary gift and full-sized paw patrol stuffy for our daughter as welcome gifts. That evening they invited us to their house for dinner and we shared an amazing meal together. Please don’t book any other place if you want to feel like you’re staying with friends/family. This is the ONLY place we will stay when coming back to this area and now consider the Wright family as our own next of kin. Thank you so much for such a wonderful place to call our second home!

Tiny Home Dream Stay

We pulled up to the property and one of the host was there waiting for us. Everything was clearly explained to us on how to operate everything. A tour was provided to us, with my son being Autistic they made special accommodation and did not push him on talk or interaction with them. They even got him a gift to help him with the transition to being in a new place and set up a special area for him to sleep. We could not have asked to have been treated any better. We were conveniently located to shopping and restaurants, however I loved that they had a stove and provided items for me to be able to cook for my son and I. I highly recommend this place to anyone and as soon as I know the dates for the convention next year we will definitely be back.

Weekend get away

When we arrived we were greeted by Lynn and her son. They help us carry our things to the house. The house was perfect. Lynn thought of everything. Water in the fridge and a bucket of snacks. This was our first VRBO rental and it will be very very hard to top the hospitality that we received. We will definitely stay there again when we visit the area. The location was great. Close to shopping and many restaurants. We chose the Wright location.

Cute Little House and Nice Host

I enjoyed my stay at the Wright Place. I had communication with the host before arriving, and I told her my reasons for traveling (birthday related, not mine). When I arrived to check in, I was shown around the property and there was a present waiting on the counter! There was also a little bucket of snacks on the counter, pastries in a dish, and water bottles in the fridge! I thought that was very kind of her. The area was nice and quiet, which allowed me to catch up on some much needed sleep too. I did not take any pictures of the property or house, as I am more of a "live in the moment" type of person. It was cute though. I would recommend this property to others if they were visiting the area.

11 out of 10!

Unforgettable VRBO experience. Lynn went above & beyond at every turn. The neighborhood was beautiful, tree-lined and very quiet. Groceries, restaurants & anything else needed were just minutes away. We were warmly greeted when we arrived; we had a reserved parking spot in the driveway, and they even helped carry in our luggage... who does that?!?We were welcomed to a very clean cottage with chocolates on our pillows, snacks, breakfast treats & coffee pods in the kitchen, extra pantry items, cooking utensils and bathroom toiletries. The bed was comfy, and the A/Cs upstairs & downstairs kept us cool. They also provided distilled water for my CPAP. We were even treated to nighttime firefly shows in the yard!But those were only part of the Wright Place charm. Lynn and her family made us feel like we were part of theirs, all without being intrusive. Our first friends in TN are now lifelong friends. If you decide to stay at the Wright Place and aren’t completely satisfied… it’s probably you.

Weekend in Kingsport

We had a nice stay. It was a cute property. And the neighborhood was fine. We were close to everything we wanted to do. We were warned that the a/c wasn't quite up to the task to cooling the cabin and she had ordered a second unit. So, the 1st floor was kinda warm and we spent most of our time upstairs. All in all i recommend the host and the cottage. The hostess was kind and even helped us wuth our bags and offered to help us should we need it. Fortunately, we were mostly out and about in the area hiking and playing disc golf.

My family and I had a very enjoyable mini vacation. The cottage was clean & comfortable. The host, Lynn, met us when we arrived and kindly offered to help us get our things to the cottage. A lot of thoughtful touches… My daughters loved the breakfast items along with a basket of snacks, thick fluffy towels, toiletries in case something is forgotten, Hershey kisses left on the pillows and TV's upstairs and downstairs. She wanted to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay. It was a nice quiet place and we would definitely stay again.

Home Away from Home

I can't say enough about my recent trip to my hometown. I was visiting to see my youngest granddaughter graduate and to attend my 50-year high school reunion. And Lynn made it so special. Not only is the house completely adorable, Lynn and Doug are absolutely amazing! From the moment I pulled into the drive, I felt like I was being greeted by my family! Needless to say, by the time I left, I felt like family! Thank you, Lynn, Doug, Cayden, Dallas, Sheila, Blue, Baby, Pop!!!Love from Maryland!!!
