Guest Stories

Memories We've Helped Grow.

Real experiences from families, couples, and adventurers who found their perfect escape.

It's like we rented a house with our own park! That was the observation of one of our adult children as we finished up our stay at Beau & Dasha's. The property was stunning…and our family enjoyed it to the fullest: flying kites, skipping rocks on the pond, cooking and eating smores, playing night games. And all our six families fit in the comfy home. We love the memories made at this awesome property!

The place was wonderful! Have have never stayed at a place that was so thoughtfully stocked. I don't cook a lot on vacation but when I did the little things they are too numerous to pack were readily available! The hot tub was fabulous and the cabin was adorable and cozy!

We stayed here for the OU vs Tennessee game and absolutely loved it! The house had such a peaceful country vibe but was still super convenient to both Knoxville and Pigeon Forge. It was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for the weekend. The wood stove in the living room was perfect for the chilly weekend. We also really appreciated being able to bring our dogs — they loved it too! Especially the large fenced in yard.. Will definitely stay here again next time we're in the area.

Your Hosts

A Family Business

Single Seed Stays started with a simple idea: what if a rental felt as welcoming as staying with a friend? Someone who stocks the essentials, shares the best local secrets, and actually answers when you text.

We aren't a faceless corporation. We are a small family team who hand-picks every property and inspects every corner to ensure your stay is flawless.

We've thought about the firewood, the coffee, and the pet treats. We've imagined kids running to the lake and friends gathering around the fire pit. These aren't just properties, they are the soil where your lasting memories grow.
