Cigarette butts should be fully extinguished and disposed of properly in exterior trash receptacles.

Pests:
We take great care to ensure our properties are free from pests. Our properties are regularly treated by professional pest control and our staff takes preventative measures to keep pests out.
However, as our properties are located in wooded areas, it is possible for guests to encounter insects and/or small woodland creatures like mice. If you do encounter an unwelcome pest inside your lodging, please contact our Guest Services team immediately so that our grounds team can address the problem as quickly as possible. We ask that guests help us prevent pests by keeping doors and window screens closed and maintaining proper cleanliness during their stay.
By booking with us, you accept that encountering insects and woodland creatures is a possibility and that no refunds will be issued for such instances.

From family reunions to business trips to romantic getaways, whatever brings you to Chattanooga, Wauhatchie Woodlands is perfectly situated to act as your home base.
Chattanooga has been recognized by Outdoor Magazine, Southern Living, Tripadvisor, Thrillist Zagat and many more media outlets as a must-visit destination for travelers of all kinds.
You’ll be staying less than a mile from one of Tennessee's most popular attractions, Ruby Falls, and just over five miles from Rock City.
If you’re craving the great outdoors, you’ll find no shortage of hikes, waterfalls, overlooks, and historical sites, all within just a few minutes of your cabin. A short walk from the property is the Skyuka Springs trailhead, which will connect you to Sunset Rock, Point Park, the Chattanooga Nature Center, and more. Raccoon Mountain Caverns are only 4 miles away and offer both walking and wild cave exploration tours. If you’re here for rock climbing, you’ll be less than a mile from Sunset Rock Climbing Crag, with Tennessee Wall and many other climbing spots just a few miles away. Located right off the Tennessee river, a day on (or in) the water is close at hand, with several conveniently located boat drops and ample opportunities for rafting, kayaking, or SUP-ing.
Less than 10 minutes away, Downtown Chattanooga offers world-class dining and entertainment options for all ages. Visit the Tennessee Aquarium, voted one of America's 10 best by USA Today. Enjoy a bite to eat at the historic Chattanooga Choo Choo complex which includes a brewery, distillery, several restaurants, and an array of seasonal activities. For a fun afternoon, visit the Selfe Museum, hit some balls at Top-Golf, or take one of Chattanooga’s pedal bike brewery tours. Experience culture and panoramic views from the Bluff View Arts District and Hunter Museum of American Art. Stroll across the Walnut Street pedestrian bridge and explore local shops in the quirky Northshore neighborhood.
If history is what attracted you, Wauhatchie Woodland sits a stones throw from the site of the decisive Civil War “Battle Above the Clouds.” The property is bordered by National Park land, preserving the historic battlefield. Point Park, at the top of Lookout Mountain includes several Civil War memorials and an interpretive center. The area has long, rich history dating back thousands of years to the early Cherokee people who called the mountain Chat-a-nu-ga, the city's namesake.
You’ll have the two upper floors of the Chalet, both inside and outside spaces, as well as the back deck hot tub to yourself during your stay.
The ground floor of the Chalet serves as the pool house and is shared with guests of the May Family Home and the Blue House. The pool area and all pool amenities are also shared with those two properties.
The Chalet is located on the edge of Wauhatchie Woodlands, a 14-acre property surrounded by National Forest. Guests have access to trails around the grounds, as well as shared pavilions, community fire pits, and playground. Please be respectful of other guests during your stay.
Please note: Pets are not allowed at this property. Please ask about our pet-friendly properties if you want to travel with a pet.
Skyuka Chalet is part of Wauhatchie Woodlands, a collection of quaint, tiny-home, rustic-comfort log cabins on a 14-acre wooded property surrounded by National Park land. The property is owned and operated by Timberroot, a small, family-owned business that specializes in creating rustic spaces that allow you to relax, recharge, and reconnect with nature.
This unique craftsman home overlooks the Tennessee river and is surrounded by National Forest. The Chalet features a wrap-around deck with a private hot tub and can comfortably sleep up to 6 guests. The compound features a shared resort-style pool and patio with a fire pit and outdoor dining area.
Please note that we are not an event space. The pool area is shared with two other homes, and parties are not allowed.
This natural setting is nested less than a mile from the city with quick access to downtown Chattanooga, Ruby Falls, Lookout Mountain, and the surrounding area.
Our custom-designed Chalet combines imagination, modernity, and a woodsy rustic feel that organically compliments the natural setting.
The Chalet is reached via Trammell Lane, where you'll find two private parking spaces.
On the ground level you'll find your lower deck with a private hot tub. Upstairs, the great room features an open floor plan with vaulted all-wood ceilings and dynamic lighting. The space included a full-service kitchen, dining area, sofas, and a Smart TV. The main bedroom with direct access to the bathroom is just off the great room.
A spiral staircase leads up to the unique lookout loft furnished with bunk beds, a striking surround of high windows, and a crown vaulted ceiling.
The "cubby nook" features a double bed and Smart TV. Please note the nook has a low ceiling and might be too cramped for an adult to sleep, but the space is perfect for kids.
The main deck wraps around the entire home, offering views over the pool, forest, and river. The large back deck features an outdoor dining area with seating for six and deep seating for relaxing.
The Chalet is in a compound with two other homes, the May Family Home and the Blue House. The homes share a stunning, heated resort-style pool with an expansive flagstone patio. On the patio, you'll find lounge seating, an outdoor fireplace, and an outdoor kitchen with a covered dining pavilion (guests must provide their own, firewood, charcoal and propane.)
