Lovely stay

We enjoyed the kitchen as well as eating in Chattanooga at some nice restaurants. It was about a 30 minute drive and we spent a lot of time in the city. The house was very comfortable. All the beds and bathrooms were well equipped and nicely done. We played some of the board games that were provided by our host and had a wonderful time!

Large Rustic Home in the Clouds

Overall we had a great stay! We loved the accommodations as each couple had their own room and bathroom. This home is on top of a mountain and has wonderful views very nearby. The only problem we had was poor communication with the host. We reached out a few times before our stay and once during and never heard back. Would recommend this home to any large family or group looking for a quite rustic stay.

Lovely home

Lovely home, great set up for multiple families. Spacious rooms and great bathrooms. Well furnished but could use a cookie sheet or baking pan in the kitchen. Was hoping for something a little more secluded feeling and further off the road, but road is relatively quiet. Overall I would recommend and would stay again.

Lots of room for all of us, 6 adults and 2 kids!

The cabin was spacious and already decorated for Christmas when we arrived, which was a nice touch. Would have like to had extra blankets as the basement bedroom didn't heat very well and extra towels would have been a plus as well. I would recommend this property for large groups looking for a peaceful getaway.

Contact free check in with a door code. WiFi worked great. It’s about 30 minutes away from any restaurants or grocery stores. The house is super cute with a cottage feel. The showers did have mold growing in the caulk in the upstairs bathrooms. One of the bed sheets weren’t washed and we found dirt and Bobby pins in it. And we found an old yogurt container under the couch when we first got there. Overall, it was a nice place, just needed a little more attention to cleaning details.

Simply the best stay we've ever had and the nicest hosts

So let me start off by saying I got the dates wrong for for our stay. The hosts were so accommodating and kind and trying to work with us. He's probably the only reason my wife and I are still talking:-) their home is absolutely gorgeous and one of the nicest areas of Chattanooga. If I could have I would have stayed a month. The home was clean very, very well equipped, and gave you a sense of Mountain life with all the amenities.

Absolutely amazing!

This cabin is amazing! It has so much space over 3 floors. Each bedroom has a full attached bath and most have huge jetted tubs. We stayed with 7 young kids and 3 adults and 2 beds were still unused. The property is beautiful. We spent our last night roasting smores on the porch fireplace while the kids played tag and ran around in the woods. It is just 20 minutes to downtown Chattanooga making for easy trips to local attractions. We did the aquarium, incline railway, caverns, and local hiking. We will definitely be back!
