What our guests are saying
“I’ve stayed in other airbnbs around the area, and while they were all nice, this one takes the prize. It’s easy to get ahold of the owner if you need to and the place was clean. I’d recommend it to anyone.”
“This was a much needed get away from the city to renew the mindset in a difficult season. Modern vibes in a small town setting. Appreciate you!”
“Really quaint and quiet cabin just outside of the strip in pigeon forge. Love the hot tub!”

“We had a wonderful stay. Host was responsive to any questions I had and the home was clean and comfortable. 10/10 recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“We enjoyed our stay at Adam’s place! It is very secluded and there is not much in the town, so prepare with food, etc. The kitchen was well-stocked and the grill was a helpful addition for cooking in. It was the perfect place to disconnect and spend quality time together.”
“We stayed at this cabin for our honeymoon and it was amazing! The hot tub and fireplace was definitely a favorite spot for us! The surrounding area is also beautiful and the people in the town were so kind it added to the experience! We will definitely have to return!”

Meet your hosts
We’re Kate and Adam Spence, the founders of Nemo Tunnel. We’re proud East Tennessee locals who met through our shared passion for fitness, and we’ve always called the Wartburg area home. We’ve spent years exploring and enjoying everything this beautiful part of East Tennessee has to offer, and we’re excited to share it with you.
We created Nemo Tunnel to offer the kind of getaway we look for ourselves — a place to slow down, disconnect from everyday life, and truly experience the mountains. Whether you’re looking for a romantic escape, an adventure with friends, or simply a quiet place to recharge, our cabins are designed to give you a true mountain getaway without sacrificing comfort.
Fitness and wellness have always been a big part of our lives, which inspired our newest project: East Tennessee’s first fitness resort, built into the mountainside with incredible views and a true boutique gym. Across all of our properties, we’ve personally designed, built, renovated, and curated each space with thoughtful details and a focus on creating a stay that feels special from the moment you arrive.
We hope you’ll explore our favorite local spots, slow down, get outside, and experience East Tennessee the way we love it. We can’t wait to host you.
— Kate & Adam
