About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Iris: Rural Secluded Nordic Tiny Home

Nestled among pines and cedars. The charm of camping but with wifi and a walk-in shower.

17 min to Market Square
18 min to The University of Tennessee
22 min to Sevierville
10 min to Seven Islands Birding Park w/ French Broad River access
Less than 1 hr to Great Smoky Mountains National Park entrances

Conveniently located between Knoxville and the Smokies. Spend the day in GSMNP, have dinner in Knoxville, then return to your secluded country retreat to wind down by the fire.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Our stay at The Iris was absolutely unforgettable. Waking up each morning with a hot cup of coffee in hand while overlooking the rolling Tennessee countryside felt like a dream. Between the peaceful wildlife and the crisp mountain air, it was everything we hoped for and more.The cabin was stocked with every essential, and plenty of thoughtful extras: making it feel both cozy and luxurious. It’s the perfect spot for a weekend getaway, a special occasion, or simply a place to unwind and reconnect. The Iris didn’t just host our vacation weekend… it made it truly exceptional.
