About this property
The White Cabin: In the Woods, Close to Town
Relax with family or work remotely while nestled up to national forest, just outside of town. Cozily outfitted with all you need to relax, cook, sleep peacefully, read, write, practice yoga, or make music on the piano. Watch the sunset, stargaze from the balcony, watch TV, hike, cook a dinner, or relax by the fire. With soothing tones and surrounded by trees, this cabin with clean lines is tucked away from it all.
This guest cabin is the perfect place for a writer's or musician's retreat, a family escape, a girlfriend's weekend ... come enjoy everything Chattanooga and it's surrounding country has to offer.
FYI: we live on the 16 acres with this cabin, and we are currently in process of permaculturing our property into a small homestead. A large swathe of the front yard has tall Marshall rye ground cover summer of 2023. We are not neglecting our property.
We are working with a professional permaculturist to build healthy, loamy soil where there was dense clay. We have the area around the cabin weed eaten each week on the side yard and around the house. If you come back in 2024, we will have fruit trees, nut trees, native plants and wild grapes.
PETS: Pets are allowed for a $100 fee that will be charged upon reservation. Limit to one pet—no exceptions. Any evidence of pets on the furniture will incur a $100 additional cleaning fee. Service animals are by law not charged for their stay, but also by policy require documentation and are NOT ALLOWED to STAY at the home ALONE at any point.
NO PARTIES. NO SMOKING. We will and have called the police on guests who were using our property illegally, inappropriately, or otherwise in violation of the agreement. Be advised.

About the host
Hosted by Missy Luce
We are a couple celebrating 29 years of marriage and homeschooling our four children. We have lived in Chattanooga since 2003.
Why they chose this property
This 16 acres at the foot of Lookout Mountain is where we intend to live out our lives. We built this cabin after owning the property for three years with intentions of creating a family community with children and grandchildren. Until that time comes, we enjoy sharing our beautiful location with travelers who want to experience Chattanooga and all the surrounding area has to offer. We are perfectly situated near town, but nestled up against national park forest.
What makes this property unique
Only four miles to downtown, yet tucked inside the prettiest envelope of a forest, our property allows people to experience our scenic city without a long drive, and we are minutes away, even walking distance, from some of the best hiking in the area. The woods behind the cabin are lovely, dark, and deep. The city lights are just a few moments away. We maintain an expectation that all guests will abide by local laws regarding noise, alcohol consumption, and your rental agreement. In rare cases, we have called in law enforcement to break up parties with illegal drinking and unregistered guests. We will continue to do this anytime it is necessary. Please be warned.
