About

Whether you’re visiting Knoxville to cheer on your favorite team at Neyland Stadium or exploring all that East Tennessee has to offer, Smokey’s Hangout is the perfect home base. Located just 15 minutes from Downtown Market Square and about 45 minutes from Sevierville, enjoy a fully private 2-bed, 2-bath basement suite. Sweet P’s BBQ, Tequila Amigos Mexican Restaurant, and Pratt’s Market are just around the corner. We also love decorating for the holidays!

Good to know

Smokey’s Hangout is named after our Manx cat, Smokey, who loved the privacy and coolness of the basement when we first moved in. Smokey’s Hangout is a fully private basement suite within our personal home. You’ll have your own private entrance, kitchenette, 2 full bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 2 workspaces, and access to our half-acre fenced backyard. Laundry is available upon request since the laundry room is located in a shared area. We do live upstairs, so you may occasionally see us around the property. We also have a toddler, so there may occasionally be some normal household/toddler noise from upstairs, especially during the daytime. We do our best to be respectful of your stay and follow the same quiet hours we ask of our guests. The home has a shared central heating and air system that we control remotely. Basements naturally tend to stay cooler, but we’ll do our best to keep you comfortable. Just let us know if you need an adjustment! You will share the driveway with us, but parking is easy. Please park in the designated guest parking area near the large tree. We’ll use the area in front of the garage. The 2-car garage is not available for guest access. Our goal is to give you a private, comfortable space while still being available if you need anything during your stay.

Other Details to Note

Sweet P’s BBQ and Wren House Coffee Shop are both less than half a mile away, making it easy to grab a great meal or morning coffee. From Smokey’s Hangout, Old Broadway provides a direct route to Old City and Downtown Knoxville, typically about a 12-minute drive. UT Campus is approximately 15 minutes away. Hop on I-640 for an easy drive toward Sevierville and Gatlinburg, or head to the Knoxville Zoo, just about 15 minutes away. You’ll be close to Knoxville without being right in the middle of the city—making Smokey’s Hangout a convenient home base for exploring East Tennessee. Heading to a UT game or local event? We provide complimentary rain ponchos, portable bleacher seats to borrow, and clear event bags for your convenience.
