Mountain retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house fit our family of 5 perfectly. The drive down the mountain was not too bad. You must take the time to drive the dirty stone road to see Snoopers Rock.

Relaxing stay close to town

This was a nice, relaxing place to stay close enough to town to not be a long drive, but away from the hustle and bustle. Everything we needed was provided. Our younger kids enjoyed the toys and games. Communication with the host was good. Definitely recommend it for families. We had a good weekend!

Fantastic

I recommend this place if your looking for peace & quiet. We were 20 mins from everything we wanted to do. Neighbors were super friendly & if you go on the 4th the community comes together & puts on the greatest firework show! If we go back for a visit we would nore than likely go back here. Owners kept our garbage can empty so that was extremely helpful & kind. Kids had a pack & play to sleep, they really enjoyed the playground, the toys & plenty of family games. We are not disappointed!

Cozy, Responsive, and Overall great stay

Our host was very responsive and when our trip was delayed due to Hurricane Helene, our host was understanding and let us shorten our stay, which was very kind. Great space for a family with infants, with toys, cribs, and space aplenty. We had a great time staying here. Thank you for such comfortable stay!

WOW! What a beauty!!

We were very pleased when we opened the door. We could not have asked for anything better. The house was stocked with everything we needed and more. Linens and pillows are as good a 5 star hotel and the house was super clean. We stayed 4 nights and had a great time!

Great trip to see just some of the sights in the Chattanooga area. We saw Rock City, the aquarium and the zoo during our stay. It was a nice touch to have a fire at night and the s’mores left out by our host.

Pleasant Stay

Great little place for our family (2 teens, 2 young adults, 2 parents) to stay while we visited Chattanooga. Loved that it was away from the business of the city, but an easy drive to Chattanooga (about 20 mins). Had everything we needed and we enjoyed the 2 dogs that came to visit us on the porch while we ate dinner.

Weekend in Chattanooga!

It was a beautiful place to stay! It was in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood and it’s so close to downtown Chattanooga and other places. House was clean and there was a lot of room for all of us who stayed. We would recommend this stay for a friends trip and even a family trip!

About the host

Hosted by Sharon Carlton

Host profile image
I have lived on top of Suck Creek Mountain my entire life. I love the peacefulness of our wonderful community.

Why they chose this property

The Kitty George House is my homeplace! Taking care of the house, keeping all things in working order, brings a sense of well-being in knowing that my mom and dad's house is providing other families a place to stay and make great memories!

What makes this property unique

One of the best things about the property is the yard! There is nothing like the playground especially in the spring, summer and fall. When it is hot, it seems there is always a breeze in the shade that covers the playground. One guest told me she thought the playground was "magical" because her children wanted to stay outside all day to play! The house is also a great place - big enough for people to have their own space, but also cozy!
The location is also wonderful! I have always enjoyed the fact of being so close to Chattanooga and all that it offers and yet live in a rural place! We see rabbits, squirrels, deer, turkeys and all kinds of birds. You can see the stars at night, and during the summer the fireflies ( lighting bugs) lighting up the yard and fields! It is a great place!
