Secluded Mountain House on 12 acres w/ Pond! 20 min to downtown Chattanooga!
Welcome to the Sequatchie Sunset, aka the Beauty on the Bluff! This beautifully landscaped home is perched on 12 acres atop Suck Creek Mountain, and offers quiet seclusion while being only minutes away from adventure or nightlife. As the name implies, you can take in the most amazing sunsets over the Sequatchie Valley from the property.
Are you ready to ‘get away from it all’ with your family and friends? Perhaps you are a day hiker, kayaker or adventurer who likes to wind down your busy day in a lush, natural setting. Maybe you are celebrating a family birthday, anniversary, or simply want a weekend away with friends. This is the perfect destination!
Come ‘home’ after spending an exciting day in downtown Chattanooga at the aquarium, Hunter museum, or local hot spot. If you don’t feel like getting out, take a stroll around the grounds, have a picnic under the elms around the gorgeous pond and get cozy by the fire pit. Have your camera ready to capture the breathtaking sunset on the bluff overlooking the Sequatchie Valley. Keep your eyes peeled for wild turkey and deer. End the evening in the great room with TV, games, or private time. After a peaceful night’s rest, take your morning coffee on the deck listening to the birds in the fresh mountain air.
We have 2 bedrooms and a large loft area that in total comfortably sleeps up to 8 people. We have wifi, a large flat screen TV in the great room, and an assortment of family-friendly games. The full kitchen features cook/bakeware, and a few appliances such as an electric kettle, blender, ice maker, and dual k-Pod/ground coffee maker. Please note: due to the windy nature of the bluff, we do not currently have an outdoor grill.
Our property includes a large pond with an adjacent green space that features a picnic table and fire pit. There are gravel utility roads that you can hike down (at your own risk) to check out the unique topography of the bluff, and experience a sunset.

My friends and I really enjoyed our stay! The property is absolutely stunning!!! We were not able to explore as much as we wanted, due to weather, but can't wait to go back so we can. Despite the weather, we had a lot of laughs and beautiful views! Both great for your soul! There was ample space and all the things we needed to feel at home. We were close to plenty of yummy restaurants and fabulous shopping. The owner was available anytime we needed them and went over and beyond making this a wonderful seemless trip. Making this a trip we will remember for years to come! Thanks again for your hospitality and sharing your lovely home!!! The Lady Bugs

A much needed peaceful retreat
We came here as a quick family get away before school started. We've always enjoyed Chattanooga and the views it has to offer. The kids love the aquarium and the discovery center immensely (which are both within 30 min of the property. We would gladly stay herw again!

Beautiful experience
This was my first experience with VRBO and everything went just perfect!
Erin, the host, sent us the house manual with all the details. We never got lost and easy found everything we needed. We felt like at home almost immediately.
Location of the house is very beautiful. Our favorite place was the deck with spectacular view
Communication with Erin was great, she answered the call right away when I had a question
I love how the house was decorated with love, taste and attention to small details.
We enjoyed our stay and hope to come back!

Chattanooga trip
We had a long weekend trip to the Caverns in Pelham and Chattanooga. Erin and Richard’s house was the perfect location. The views were amazing from the back porch! We enjoyed walking the property, a campfire with s’mores, and the scenic drive to Chattanooga. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The house is very private and it only took us around 25-28 minutes to get to Southside Chattanooga. Would definitely stay here again!

Wedding stay
We rented here because our daughter was getting married in Whitwell. We have a blended family and we were all coming from different areas of the country. Needless to say, we had some hiccups with our travel plans and needed some last minute adjustments. We communicated this with the hostess, and she was extraordinarily responsive and graciously flexible. When we arrived, we were blown away by the beautiful grounds and also the amenities. The view off the deck is absolutely spectacular!! The hosts provided all the necessities and more! There was coffee, snacks and all the things you would expect. All of these extras made our stay for this magnificent event all the more special. Many warm thank you's!!

Perfect location!
This house is nestled in the mountains with plenty of outdoor space that allows for great family bonding. Outdoor patio overlooking the woodland paradise and amazing sunsets make for some awesome memories and pictures. The fire pit allowed us to make s’mores and spend time bonding with our family. The house itself is very comfortable and clean. The large living room comfortably accommodated all of us (family of 8) for movie night. Having spent Thanksgiving in this home, I was delighted that the hosts had a fully stocked kitchen with the right pans and measuring cups to make it easy to prepare a full Thanksgiving meal. The hosts were always available for questions and made the check in/out process very easy. This is a hidden gem in Chattanooga and will visit again.
Thank you Erin for having a guest book, home manual and a bit of history of the home on hand. These details made us feel at home. Also the welcome basket was such a nice touch and very much appreciated.

A True Gem!
First of all, the property and view is amazing, and yet not far from downtown Chattanooga. This was perfect for us. We were able to take in some Chattanooga city attractions as well as take a hike in Prentice Cooper State Forest, which happens to be a mile or two from the property. Also, it was nice to hike around the pond and the land on the bluff. The house was clean, spacious and very calming. There was a nice gift bag left for us with snacks and a Chattanooga magazine that was informative regarding sights and attractions. We didn't need to cook, but the kitchen has pots/pans/dishes/and more if you wanted to cook. We appreciated the dual grounds/K-cup coffee maker and brought our preference. The owner was very responsive to questions, and the house manual was sent to us in advance, so we could study up a little. There is a hard copy of the manual at the house which is very helpful and interesting. We plan to come back to this property again with more family or friends. Loved our time there, absolutely beautiful!!
