Oconee Oasis: 2BR/2bed updated suite w scenic view

Oconee Oasis is located in the quiet, safe, and friendly Cherokee Terrace subdivision in South Knoxville. Established in 1939, the neighborhood features lots of mature trees and abundant acreage, and is just minutes away from downtown Knoxville. This spacious suite is located at the rear lower level of the home and has a large and picturesque backyard, patio, and private driveway with free parking.

Oconee Oasis is only a few miles from UT Medical Center, Neyland Stadium, and downtown Knoxville.

Scenic solitude:
Oconee Oasis is a new private ground floor apartment facing west towards a large yard and densely wooded ridge. The private entrance is located at the back of the house at the end of a private driveway. The living space is 800 sq ft with an open floor plan, 2 bedrooms, kitchenette, and bathroom with big windows allowing lots of natural light and affording scenic views.

As a two-story unit, you will hear footsteps and voices above you from time to time, however noise-reducing panels were installed to minimize this. A dehumidifier has been installed for your year-round comfort, and its fan comes on intermittently. There are many dogs in the neighborhood, so please expect barking from time to time.

Guest access:
Our neighborhood is quiet and our road ends in a cul-de-sac. Many residents walk the neighborhood streets daily for exercise. The streets are a bit narrow, but are wide enough for parking along the sides in some areas. This unit has its own private driveway with free parking.

NOTE:
When turning into our driveway, stay to the right at the fork and continue past the white garage door to the bottom of the hill behind our house. Park right in front of woodpile/basketball goal in a way that does not block access to lower garage door.

For arrivals after dark:
Motion sensor and solar lights will help guide you to your free parking space at the end of our driveway and to the yellow apartment door.

Other things to note:
The only security camera on the property is outdoors.

After entering the apartment, please keep silver Kwikset door lock tab in vertical (locking) position at all times to ensure security.

Great location
Clean and well decorated apartment facing a pretty yard. The location was close to everything in Knoxville, which was a huge plus for us. The streets in the neighborhood are not lit and full of turns so make sure to use GPS at night. The only downside was the seating room furniture is uncomfortable and the beds have no box spring so it's not the most comfortable sleep.

Blown away!
This is my first experience in AB&B. If Oconee Oasis is an example of what I can expect, then the hassle of staying in a hotel again is a thing of the past! From the moment my son and I entered, it seemed so inviting and welcoming. but my highest praise is reserved for CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN! Everything was CLEAN! EVERYTHING! And the attention to detail was over the top, as well. All the amenities were of a high quality, and we wanted for nothing. There was even books, puzzles and cards available for entertainment. The bed was soft and comfortable and if you were cold there was 2 fluffy duvets in the big walk-in closet. It was so blessedly quiet but if you still couldn't sleep, there was a relaxing sounds machine to lull you to sleep. The kitchen area was compact and had everything you would need to cook a simple meal. The bathroom -- CLEAN! The commode and shower were spotless! The entire experience was easy and very enjoyable. From the initial booking process to the communications with the Property Manager, Mr. Wicks, who was always helpful and available to answer questions. The only problem we had was the furnace was set on 55 and there was no way to turn it up. I am partially disabled so would have appreciated some grab bars in the shower, but other than that - thank you one and all for making our time spent in Knoxville so enjoyable.

Clean, Affordable, Convenient
Stayed due to a volleyball tournament at the Knoxville Convention Center. Maybe a 10-15 minute drive to the KCC. Prob could have been less but there was construction in the area. Place was nicely decorated and very clean. Priced right for the accommodation. It’s a little apartment in a basement. The owners are super sweet! Very receptive to needs or requests. Good communication. I will say we weren’t in the room much but I would definitely recommend. It was a clean, safe place at an affordable price.

We enjoyed a three night stay while visiting our son at UT. The location was quiet and out of the way, yet convenient to the university. We were able to get pizza delivery the first night and had several local eatery options during our stay. We would stay here again.

Great stay!
I was in Knoxville for only 2 nts. The home is lovely. Gorgeous backyard. The neighborhood is very quiet. The place has a lot of space, was very comfortable and had everything I needed (thank you for having an iron which I needed for the event I was attending). The owner was very kind & responsive. The floors are painted concrete. I wish I had brought flip flops or slippers as the floor is bit hard, but that's on me & more of a comment for future guests. Would definitely recommend!

Very satisfied with our choice of Oconee Oasis. There was plenty of space, everything we needed to prepare a meal or read and relax. The bed was comfortable and we slept well. Very quiet neighborhood that was beautifully landscaped. Would recommend to a couple or small family. Would request to stay here again if ever in the area.
