About this property

Historic Restoration, Central location, Pet & Family Friendly, No Pet Fee!

Welcome to Willow House in walkable, middle-of-the-action Ridgedale!

Looking for adventure? You'll find a myriad of hikes, climbing, water sports, and historic sites within a short drive! Forgot something? Walk to nearby Walgreens and Dollar General to grab essentials.

Enjoy easy, off-street parking via the alley behind Willow House. Climb 3 steps to enter through the guest door via smart keypad into a large, fully-stocked kitchen. Prepare delicious meals with the brand new, stainless steel appliances and ample counter space or enjoy takeout from multiple downtown options. The kitchen flows to the living space with cozy seating, desk space, and flat screen TV. Note that the only bathroom is on this level. Enjoy complimentary shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion.

You will find two bedrooms upstairs after ~18 steps. To the right is a bedroom with queen bed and separate twin daybed. To the left is a single queen bedroom. Both rooms have large closets, windows with blinds and curtains, and window units that supply both air conditioning and heat. All mattresses are comfy memory foam and beds have Turkish fabric on the custom headboards.

The vestibule outside the bedrooms offers a full length mirror, extra linens, water carafe, and some often forgotten toiletry items. We aim to make your stay as comfortable as possible!

You will stay in an apartment at the rear of our house which has its own private entrance. You do not have access to laundry in the basement but accommodations can be made for longer stays.

Willow House is 5 minutes from downtown and nearby I-24 and I-75. Off-street parking is available via the alley behind the house.

The house was beautiful and clean. The hosts were attentive and checked in with us once or twice to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked and there was even a basket in the hall of often forgotten essential items. Very thoughtful! We would definitely stay here again.

Great for a quick trip!

Super cute place that is within 15 minutes of everything. The dog blankets, bowls and towels were a great touch. We knew there was only one bathroom but didn’t realize it was downstairs (bedrooms are upstairs). This was tough with kids when they had to go potty at night. Downstairs gets hot but the AC units in the bedrooms work great. Very spacious with a large kitchen. They gave us late checkout so we could keep our dogs crated while we went to the zoo, which was very nice! Overall a great experience!

Amazing Property- super pet friendly!

The place was absolutely lovely! So cozy and great for playing board games in the evening. Also incredibly dog proof, we brought our 3 month old lab and were worried about her getting into stuff, but it was so clean there was nothing for her to find! A wonderful place to stay!

Great Chattanooga Getaway

We couldn't have found a more convenient property and nicer hosts to allow us to explore all that Chattanooga has to offer! The accommodations were excellent; from extra towels and goodies for the pups to cold water and glasses by the bedroom waiting for us when we arrived and checked in. The hosts were very responsive to our questions and checked in on us frequently during our stay to ensure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed to make the most of our trip! We definitely will be visiting this lovely city again soon!

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Graveline

Host profile image
Hi there! We are a busy young family with roots in Alabama and Ohio and recent stints in Brooklyn, New York and Portland, Oregon. Melissa is an Architect and Kurt is a Landscape Architect.

When not designing at our day jobs, we love exploring Chattanooga with our 4-year old daughter, Camelia, and 6 year old Doxipoo, Maple.

We bought and renovated this 100-year old house in early 2022. Melissa loves the old charm of the house and tastefully accentuated it in the renovations. And Kurt is slowly but surely bringing back the beauty to the exterior of the old home. We hope you like what we've done with it!

Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your stay more enjoyable.

Why they chose this property

We have a shared love and passion for old walkable neighborhoods. Ridgedale and our the adjacent neighborhood, Highland Park, are a couple of the most historic, diverse, and walkable parts of Chattanooga. We're invested in this part of the city and want to see it continue to thrive and we love sharing it with visitors.

What makes this property unique

We cover every imaginable detail. If you forgot something at home, we have it ready and waiting here for you!
