We are atop the Cumberland Plateau, and our mountain home overlooks a beautiful forested valley. With an expansive view from the dining and living rooms, as well as the master suite, it's easy to forget the outside world and focus on family, relaxation, time away from it all, or a change of scenery for work. Welcome to the mountaintop!
The South Cumberland Bluff House is in a quiet neighborhood with only one neighboring house. It's serene and quite unique. The home is partially underground, made of area stone on the exterior, with several rooms having local barn wood on the interior. Our family has painstakingly renovated this house and is so happy to share it with others to enjoy. (Please note: If guests cancel in the appropriate cancellation window, all money is returned except for the credit card processing fees.)
We like to check in all our guests personally. This allows for any questions to be answered and to provide all the information we can about the lodge. You are required to text us your ETA and when you arrive at the interstate exit so we can meet you at the property for check-in. If other accommodations are needed, you will need to make those known prior to arrival, as well.
We maintain a strict no pet and no smoking policy. Please respect the property by following these rules.
The living room television has a Roku device for easy access to Netflix or other channels you may have access to. We provide Netflix, Hulu, and ESPN+ free of charge. That TV is also "cast" capable and may be used with your smartphone for any subscription, cast-enabled channels you like to watch.
We want you to feel at home. Please find extra pillows, blankets, throws, games, and other items inside the coffee table chest and the closets in your bedroom for your use.
***Remove makeup and staining elements prior to laying in beds or on any linen or cloth surfaces! Stains from make-up, food, drinks, blood or other kinds on linens and towels will result in charge of $50 for stained linen (sheets, pillows, etc) and $10 per stained towel, $8 for hand towel or washcloth.***
If you stain something with blood, please soak towel or linen in COLD water immediately. If something is stained, please let us know so we can help get it washed and avoid permanent staining. If you hide the stained items or fail to tell us, it will result in immediate charges against your deposit. Otherwise, we will work with you to get the stains out.
Other items that are broken will result in a damage charge. You are responsible for broken plates and other dishes, glasses, stemware, etc. and you will be responsible to pay for them through the security deposit for broken and missing items. This applies to household appliances, furniture, and other home decor and accessories.
If you break something, please do not hide it or not tell us. By informing us of lost or broken dishes or items, you are being a good guest and can still receive a positive review.
The pantry contains extra paper towels, disposable drinking cups, and paper plates for your convenience.
The pantry is ready to use and has the microwave on a lower shelf. The freezer is good to store anything may want.
The fireplace in the living room is gas and can be turned on to suit your climate needs. Each bedroom is equipped with an AC unit (during the warmer seasons) and a heater (cooler seasons) for you to use as needed. DO NOT move AC/Heating units.
Both bathrooms have extra towels in the linen closets and other supplies in the same place or under the sink. We are on septic, so please do not flush personal hygiene items.
The door leading to the "basement" at the end of the hall is off-limits.
Please see house rules on this site and at the property. You must agree to these rules prior to booking this property.
