FOR BUILDING PARTNERS
Ashley and her team did a great job doing everything from putting furniture together to decorating the whole house. They made sure everything was picture perfect. Guests have already commented that the house looked fantastic online but is even better in person.
James Staging Company helped me tremendously with setting up my Airbnb.

My husband and I bought a cabin vacation rental & knew it needed updated. I found James and Co & knew they would be a great fit... They stayed within budget & wow does it look incredible!! We would definitely hire them when needed again in the future!!
Hiring James and Co was a great investment. The reviews from guests have reflected it as well.

She took care of so many details without us mentioning anything to her. She listened to our ideas and incorporated them into her wonderful design. Ashley has a knack for finding beautiful pieces for a bargain price. She gave our cabin a tasteful makeover while staying within our budget. If it were not for James and Co., this process would have been a lot more stressful! She is truly a gem and we look forward to working with her again!
We were very fortunate to find Ashley James & her team to give new life to our cabin. She went above and beyond our expectations.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Frequently Asked Questions
Once designs have been selected, it typically takes 5-6 weeks to receive everything and finalize installation.
How long does the process take?
We proudly serve the Smoky Mountains area, including Gatlinburg, Pigeon Forge, Sevierville, Townsend, and Walland.
What areas do you serve?
Our curated design packages are tailored to meet the needs of short-term rental properties efficiently. However, we can make minor adjustments to ensure the design aligns with the property’s character.
Can I customize the design packages?
We understand the importance of quality furniture but also that it must make sense from an investment standpoint. We source from online retailers such as Wayfair, Target, Etsy, and others after checking reviews and only choosing top rated items. We utilize HostGPO and Minoan when necessary and pass those savings to you. In addition, we source from local furniture warehouses and shops.
How do you ensure quality & durability?
- Furniture Budget: $5,000 per bedroom and $6,000 per common space is a good estimate for a thorough design and furnishing
- Design Fee: $8 per square foot, which includes our design services, handyman services (such as TV installation or large item set-up), and trash haul-out. There are no hidden fees.
What is the cost of your services?
We are passionate about transforming short-term rental properties in the Smoky Mountains into unique, inviting retreats.
