Um Gnomo Longe de Casa

Welcome to our little piece of paradise! Located perfectly between Knoxville and Chattanooga this cottage gives you access to everything the area has to offer or just come hang out with the animals.

Enjoy the rural setting with gorgeous sunrises/sunsets along with the amazing night sky! All are welcome.

The guest cottage yours to enjoy. Please also feel free to wander around the property which is mostly fenced.

Please note we do live on site and run a small hobby farm. There are chickens, peafowl, honey bees, goats, alpacas, and dogs on the property along with whatever other animals wander this way.

The chickens are allowed to free range during the day and we often let livestock out to graze when the weather is nice. If you are not comfortable with them being out please let us know and we will make sure not to open the gates during your stay. While we hate to had to add this we are not liable for incidents or injuries while you are on the property.

We are open to as much or as little interaction as you prefer. We live on site but come and go frequently. You may see us hanging around or we might be out having an adventure (or just working). Regardless we are always available by phone or email.

Generally speaking we allow self check in and check out. If you would like us to greet you please let me know and I will do my best to make that possible.

Within an hour you can be in Knoxville, Chattanooga, Tellico Plains, Ocoee etc. Within 1.5 hours you can be in the Smoky mountain national park or nearby in Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg for any tourist activity you can imagine. Sweetwater itself is home to a beautiful downtown! We are minutes away from Watt's bar along with SO many outdoor activities! Just a lovely country setting to relax and recharge.
