Charcoal Chalet with Private Deck Near Chattanooga

Summary:
Like all of our farm stays, this cabin offers a peaceful escape from the city without being too far away. The Charcoal Chalet has a calm, low-key mood made for unwinding after a full day out with 3 sleeping spaces, full kitchen, private deck with outdoor seating & hot tub. Great for families, friends, or couples. 15 minutes from downtown Chattanooga and close to Ruby Falls, Rock City & the Tennessee Aquarium. Optional farm-fresh food available. Hot tub nights and slow mornings await.

The Space:
The Charcoal Chalet has a calm, easy mood that makes it simple to slow down. Spend the day exploring Chattanooga, then come back to a quiet farm, a fully equipped kitchen, and a private deck with outdoor seating. With three sleeping spaces (two enclosed bedrooms and a loft), there’s room for families, friends, or couples. Evenings belong to the private hot tub, with the pastures settling in for the night around you.

About the Farm:
Quail Run Farm offers the best of both worlds, with peaceful countryside charm just minutes from the heart of downtown Chattanooga. This unique spot lets guests enjoy quiet mornings on the farm while still having easy access to top attractions like Rock City, Ruby Falls, the Incline Railway, and the Tennessee Aquarium. Guests staying at Quail Run have the opportunity to enjoy food raised right here. From pasture-raised eggs and grass-fed beef to house-cured bacon and seasonal specialties, every item we offer is produced with care on our land. While meals aren’t provided, guests can pre-order select farm-raised items to stock their fridge or fire up the grill for a true taste of Quail Run. Looking for an up-close look at life on the farm? Guests are welcome to book a guided tour. These casual, family-friendly experiences offer a chance to meet our animals, explore the pastures, and learn about regenerative farming practices.

Guest Access:
Your unit features a digital keypad at the front door for easy, private access — your code will be provided at check-in. The home is entirely yours during your stay.

Beyond your front door, Quail Run Farm is yours to explore. This is a working farm, so we ask that guests be mindful and follow all posted signage. Roam the grounds, sign up for a farm tour, try an outdoor cooking class, or check out one of our on-site property events (fees may apply). And be sure to say hello to Sampson, our resident farm dog. He's the unofficial welcoming committee and never turns down a good scratch behind the ears!

The Neighborhood:
Quail Run Farm is a 120-acre working regenerative farm just minutes from downtown Chattanooga. Out here, rolling pastures meet views of Lookout Mountain, and the pace slows down just enough to feel like a real escape. But you're never far from the action. Downtown Chattanooga's restaurants, breweries, and attractions are a quick drive away, and outdoor adventures like hiking, rock climbing, and paddleboarding are right around the corner. Closer to home, take some time to explore the farm. It's the best of country living with city convenience just down the road.

When you're ready to venture off the farm, winter is a quiet, cozy season in Lookout Valley. Ruby Falls is just up the mountain and celebrates the holidays from November 27 through December 24, with lights on the Village Plaza, a decorated castle and visits with Santa on select days. Rock City’s Enchanted Garden of Lights is an easy drive up Lookout Mountain and runs nightly from November 13 through December 31. After the holidays, the valley settles into its slow season, and bare trees mean clearer mountain views on winter hikes. Downtown Chattanooga is just a short drive away, with plenty of fun winter events.

Getting Around:
We recommend having a car during your stay — there's plenty of parking on the property. Uber, Lyft, and local taxis are available in the Chattanooga area, though availability can be limited in rural areas.

The city of Chattanooga offers reasonably priced parking on the street and in several public parking lots.

A free electric shuttle bus runs between the Chattanooga Choo Choo and the Tennessee Aquarium with stops at every block. The buses run every 15 minutes, Monday through Friday from 6:30 am to 10 pm, Saturday from 9:30 am to 11 pm, and Sunday from 9:30 am to 8:30 pm. Bus schedules may vary, please consult the Chattanooga Area Regional Transit Authority website for the most up to date schedules.
