Perfect place to stay for a long weekend in Chattanooga! Close to everything we wanted to do and had a great firepit where you didnt get a ton of smoke in your face and the hot tub was awesome as well!

Hi Brooklyn! Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the cleanliness issue you encountered in the bathroom. We take guest comfort seriously and have shared this with our housekeeping staff to prevent a recurrence. We hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future.
Great property for younger ones, minimal furniture with rooms that can be completely shut off. Close and convenient to restaurants and all the fun stuff in Chattanooga.

Thank you for the great feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful environment, cozy mornings, and excellent communication. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another stay!
This house is decorated beautifully inside! The location was great for visiting the area attractions — being just a few minutes from Ruby Falls, Rock City Gardens, Incline Railway, and the Tennessee Aquarium was awesome! We also really enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. The horseshoe game in the yard was a fun, unique touch. The reason for our 4 rating is due to the fact that the pots and pans were in pretty bad shape, and we had planned to eat of most our meals in, since we were paying for a place with a kitchen. Due to the scratched and dented teflon pans, we actually stopped by a store to buy a pan to use during our stay. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay for fall break.
My husband and I and the children went for a little getaway to celebrate our anniversary. We also had our in-laws meet us there from Missouri. It was perfect for the kids with the yard and the stream. And it was perfect for us at night with the hot tub and the fire pit.

Thank you for staying with us! We’re thrilled the setting was perfect for your family and your special celebration. We look forward to hosting you all again!
The owners were very responsive and helpful. We choose this location because it was in walking distance to my grandson’s home. We spent most of our time site seeing and with family at my grandsons home. The backyard looked spectacular. Wish we would have had time to enjoy it. We will definitely rent again.

Came for a few days from Wisconsin to see some local attractions in Chattanooga. This place was the perfect location being minutes away from all the things we wanted to see. The home was perfect and accurately depicted in the photos. We loved the hot tub at night after the adventures of the day.

This was the perfect location for our week-long vacation in Chattanooga. It is a quiet area, but very close to downtown as well as all the activities at Lookout Mtn and surrounding mtns. We were impressed with the cleanliness of the kitchen and bathroom, and the house well well equipped with all the towels, soap, dishes, trash bags, etc. that we might need. The yard was well maintained and a great area to relax after a day of touring.
