Windrock UTV excursion - 3 days of riding trails
Extremely clean - we basically ate breakfast - left & rode all day and came back to house to a great crockpot supper, showers, and comfey beds. Loved the large sofa and large tv, everything we could have possibly need was there. Highly recommend it.

Step Back in Time
This is one of the original "C" houses from the 1940's and the "Secret City" days when uranium was being enriched for the atomic bomb. It is central to everything worth seeing - most museums and stores within 2 miles of the house. The house was very clean and comfortable with a well equipped kitchen. The Roku was included, but it took a little work getting the system to work - you have to talk to it after pushing on the microphone button on the remote. The owner was very pleasant and responsive. When we asked if there was a floor fan we could use, one was delivered same day by Walmart. Very nice neighbors, too. We could not asked for a pleasanter place to stay.

Our Manhattan Project Adventure
We had read a bit on Manhattan Project/Oakridge history and enjoyed the book The Girls of Atomic City by Denise Keirnan. We had a high expectation for our visit. We had many wonderful surprises! It is so amazing to get to walk through places of history!! Our home was actually a refurbished C house of the project. It has been wonderfully refurbished and modernized. The home was so tidy and cute! Our host was quick to respond, giving eating recommendations and answering questions. The home is a 20 minute walk to Jackson square which was one of the shopping centers for eta of the Manhattan project. Kind of wished we brought our Pickleball paddles as there are at least 8 lighted courts 10-15 minute walk. Neighborhood was quiet and loaded with many of the different style homes similar to ours-truly a Manhattan project mecca. We also enjoyed the Oakridge history museum, the Oakridge National science museum including getting on to the bus tour of Oakridge and historic and contemporary sites. Great history telling by various guides at each site. The town is cute and pretty enough area to warrant a nice visit, even if you’re not a history geek as we were. If you want to learn about out US contemporary history from 1935-45 plus to present-this area is rich. Also saw Civil war signage but needed to focus on the Manhattan project. I highly recommend this home, host and area. PS. Bed was comfy as well. PS. Our trip was around October 20-the trees were spectacular!! So thankful!

This is a very neat, well equipped older home. It is convenient to everything! The floor in the bathroom is probably going to need replacing soon as it is a little squishy. Otherwise, perfect for our needs!

Oak Ridge TN House - Clean, Comfortable and Well-Stocked
House is set-up well for younger children, with a separate playroom stocked with multiple toys and games. Two full comfortable bedrooms for adults and a third nice bedroom with a double bed as a bottom bunk and a single bed as a top bunk - ideal for kids or additional adults. Large enclosed screened-in back porch/deck was great for hanging out with morning coffee. Good-sized reasonably secluded backyard, but rained a lot so the kids really couldn't take advantage of it for outdoor activities while staying there. As my title states, the house was clean, comfortable, and very well-stocked. Air conditioning and hot water systems worked well. House was well-located for our particular purpose of attending a family reunion at a nearby location. Also well-located for sight-seeing attractions, grocery shopping, gas stations, restaurants, and extensive medical facilities (if required). The immediate surrounding neighborhood was okay. Our contact there was the house's owner/manager, who was friendly and very responsive to text messages from us re the very few questions we had while there. All-in-all, we considered it a thumbs-up for our four night's stay purposes.

Everything you need
The home was clean and the kitchen was well-stocked. Detergent, coffee, creamer…even the ingredients to make cookies! The only problem we encountered was when my brother and sister-in-law accidentally locked themselves out on the back porch because the knob locked behind them, and they had locked the inside deadbolt on the front door. The property owner couldn’t understand what I meant, but sent a family member by with a key to let us in. Other than that, the place was great.
