About

Olive Leaf is a short term rental unit, able to accommodate single room lodging, or an entire house. Our stand alone master suite may be reserved separately for those just needing a private getaway.
This house may also be reserved as an entire house, with kitchen and laundry, a minimum of 3 bedrooms, or a maximum of 4 bedrooms.

Although this unit is only minutes from downtown Mountain City, Tennessee, it is located in a peaceful, rural farmland setting  in the Appalachian mountains of upper East Tennessee, with the most spectacular views you will find.

Sit on the back deck and watch the cattle graze on a nearby farm, or rock on the front deck and see an awesome view of the Forge, Doe, Stone and Locust Gap mountains, which surround us!  Feel free to explore our 5 acres and enjoy the mountain air.  Your children are welcome and loved! They are free to play on the swings and slide, supervised by an adult.

We are about 45 minutes from Boone North Carolina, about 20 minutes from Damascus Virginia, about 20 minutes from Watauga Lake, and about 1 hour from West Jefferson North Carolina.  The Virginia Creeper Trail, and the Laurel Creek Trail are only a few miles away for hikers to enjoy, or go skiing in the Mountains of Boone, North Carolina.  Go motorcycling on “The Snake”, which is about 10 minutes from us through beautiful Shady Valley, Tennessee. Go four wheeling on Doe Mountain, only 15 minutes away.

If you enjoy NASCAR racing, Bristol Motor Speedway is only 1 hour from us, unless you are adventurous enough to drive “The Snake” to Bristol, which makes it about 45 minutes (dramamine may be recommended).

Go antiquing in our small town, and in nearby historic Trade, Tennessee, or best of all, you can just sit on the porch and enjoy the quiet life and the beautiful Mountain views.

We welcome all believers, pastors, singers, or missionaries. Schedule your retreat here.

Business travelers, vacationers, overnighters, motorcyclists or race fans may join us as well. The possibilities are numerous, and you will likely want to become a porch sitter!

We want your experience at Olive Leaf Cottage to be very special.
