We are atop the Cumberland Plateau, and our mountain home overlooks a beautiful bluff area. With an expansive view from the dining and living rooms, as well as the primary suite, it`s easy to forget the world below and focus on family, relaxation, and time away from it all.
Guests can access all the main parts of the house. This includes the kitchen and its many amenities, including a refrigerator and freezer, the dining island that seats 6 to 8 people, the dining area that seats 6 to 8, a living room that comfortably seats the same, three lockable bedrooms, two baths, and the laundry facilities. For those working while traveling, the foyer has a built-in desk so you can still be part of the action and not miss a beat. The kitchen island has plenty of space for computers and charging as well.
Netflix is available for TV services/apps. The living room TV is a casting television and will work with your device and app once you download the Vizio app.
Plus: We have an observation deck where you can see nature from a higher vantage point, watch the stars at night, or just sit back on the swing and enjoy the surrounding view of mountains and trees.
We are on a nearby property, so we are available during your stay at the mountain lodge.
The South Cumberland Bluff House is in a quiet neighborhood with only one neighboring house. It`s serene and 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.
Additional Guests Info: We charge $10 per person per day for each additional guest beyond the initial two.
There is plenty of parking in the driveway. We are away from the hustle and bustle of city life, but there are bike, hiking, and walking trails close by.
The TV in the living room is a `casting television.` This means you can share the TV screen using your phone or device after downloading the app. Netflix and other apps are available on the Smart TV, too.

Great location! Check in/out and communication was great with the hosts. Enjoyed learning the history of the home as well. The views and privacy were wonderful. We appreciated the stocked kitchen and gas grill to easily make meals at the house. Location to various hiking spots, parks, and The Caverns was perfect.
This beautiful home made our stay in Tennesee so comfortable and relaxing. The house is much larger and more beautiful than the pictures show. Tori is a lovely hostess. Would love to visit again.
We spent a long weekend at the Bluff House in April. Had a great time. Great views and a short drive to the Caverns along beautiful country roads.Found some fantastic trails to hike and some very good restaurants in the surrounding communities. The communication with Ben and Tori was fantastic and we will definitely be back.
My family had an amazing stay at the bluff House. The hosts were lovely and absolutely everything we needed was there at the house. They even accommodated a special request for a kitchen item.
Would definitely recommend this property for a quiet getaway.
The Bluff House was amazing! I cannot imagine a more beautiful view from right outside the master bedroom window. The area is quiet except for the relaxing sound of a waterfall nearby. We saw lots of deer, had everything we needed in town and had a great time. Thanks!
My friends and I loved this property. We were in Tennessee for my birthday and for a few shows at the Caverns. It was lovely to have a quiet and beautiful place to rest and relax between activities each day. We took advantage of the fire pit as well enjoying the evenings by the fire. The sunsets and sunrises were beautiful.
Our two night stay at Bluff House was just wonderful; we all enjoyed it so much. Tori met us at check-in and gave us the tour and explained how everything worked. The house was very clean, and unlike some rentals I've stayed at, very comfortably furnished. The bluff view was spectacular, particularly from the rooftop deck, and we enjoyed the firepit. All in all, our stay at Bluff House exceeded our expectations and we plan on coming back next fall!
My husband I and stayed here, along with my sister and brother-in-law. We all had a fantastic time. The view was amazing, and the house was the perfect size for the four of us. We were located about 20 minutes or less to all the things we wanted to do.
Very close to hiking and the view was amazing. The kitchen, living room and bedrooms were really nice (good mattresses). The bath rooms are cute but the tubs are difficult to climb in and out of safely, especially if you’re older. We enjoyed the fire pit very much too. Owner’s were very helpful and kind.
We were badly in need of a four-night getaway, and the Bluff House was exactly made to order! This was our second stay at this property, and once again we were dazzled by the incredible view, and by the privacy. Saw several deer multiple times, and had a visit by a pileated woodpecker. This place is so perfect in every way, and hosts couldn't have been more welcoming or helpful! Highly recommend!
We have only the best things to say about Tori and Ben and their wonderful property! They are very quick to communicate. Tori met us there and answered any questions. The home is very comfortable and super clean and the property and view are beautiful! We are trying to plan our next trip there!
Our stay was wonderful! Fun hearing the history of the house with a welcome tour from Tori. Everything was very clean and well equiped. The view from the living room and rooftop deck was simply breathtaking! We enjoyed playing cornhole under the lights with the mountains as a wonderful backdrop. Coming back to super comfortable beds after a long day of riding razors, was the icing on the cake. Ben was very prompt and courteous with his communication, as well! So looking forward to coming back again! 10/10 would recommend 👌
The Bluff House checked all of the boxes for us! Amazing view, fantastic appointments, everything we could possibly have wanted to have available. The privacy, the view, the huge upper deck, and the immaculate details of the home itself. Of all of the VRBO and rental properties we've stayed at, this was the finest for our needs. Hated to leave, and immediately scheduled a return trip for this fall~! Highly recommend! The owner met us at the property, gave us the home's (amazing!) history, and made us feel right at home immediately. Great people, with a great rental property! Can't wait to go back in October!
My brother and I purchased our mom tickets to a Christmas concert in the Caverns and found this gem when planning the trip. The Caverns were only a quick 15 minute drive so it seemed like a perfect fit. We flew into Knoxville and enjoyed the scenic 2.5 hour drive down to Pelham and were ecstatic once we arrived. The hosts met us at the property to explain everything at check-in and couldn't have been more hospitable. We arrived around 9pm and were blown away that you could see EVERY star in the sky. The house was cozy and quant and perfect for what we needed. In the morning we woke to an absolutely breathtaking view. I will certainly book this property again for another concert and hopefully be able to make it for when the leaves change. This property is a 10/10 in my eyes!
The house definitely had some charm! The view is quite spectacular! It was just my husband and I but honestly another couple and 6 kids could comfortably sleep. Both bathrooms had claw tubs with a showerhead. My husband is very tall so it felt awkward to him, but both bathrooms had plenty of towels for the 2 of us. There is a large glass kitchen table that fit 6 perfectly as well as a seating nook in the kitchen that could seat 4or 5. We really enjoyed the many options for hiking that are really close to the house Our favorite was Foster Falls. We really had no problems or complaints. The owner Tori met us at the house to check us i. and answer questions. The only thing I would point out to a larger family staying is to be aware there are not a lot kitchen accessories if you like to bake or cook large family meals. Very basic selection for cooking but adequate if you were not planning to cook for a group! We will definitely like to come back!
I almost hate to write this review because i don't wan the place to be booked if i wan to book it. The place is perfect. The view is amazing, the hosts have been the best i've ever had. 2 picnic tables outside where we enjoyed several meals make it a great place to hang out. On top of the mountain, the wind is breezy so even if its warm out it helps a ton. It is very well stocked but if you plan to cook, bring your favorite seasonings and condiments. There are a good bit there, but bring some of your own. No condiments, Its close enough to supplies stores if you forget.something.
There is a microwave, grill, oven and even a crock pot! Plan to cook here, its worth it! Plenty of plates and utensils. I brought my own grill brush. There may have been one, but i didn't see it.
We were there for a weekend caverns event and hope to rent it for every event. It is a 20 minute drive to the caverns and 10-15 for supplies.
All the beds were comfy and nice older looking furniture and decor made it comfy to hang out in. Even the bunk beds were comfy.
My group was all 30+ and the only complaint we had was the water pressure... That is to be expected way up on a mountain! Book it now! Ill definitely say here anytime we are anywhere near the area.
