Summer trip
The location was very nice a beautiful piece of property. The house needed a deep cleaning. When we opened the blinds in the master bedroom the dust was very thick. All the fans were caked with dust. There was a mildew smell through out the house. We ended up bringing the mildew smell home with us. It was on all our clothing and bags. We didn’t contact the owner because we didn’t feel it could be cleaned in a short period of time.

See Rock City
Great trip to see just some of the sights in the Chattanooga area. We saw Rock City, the aquarium and the zoo during our stay. It was a nice touch to have a fire at night and the s’mores left out by our host.

Great for kids!
We enjoyed our stay so much! The house was super clean and well stocked. Sharon thought of literally everything we could need. There were toys for the kids to play with, and they really enjoyed the play set and big yard. I am pretty terrified of driving on mountain roads but the road to the house wasn’t bad at all. It only took us 20-25 minutes to get to each attraction we went to in Chattanooga. The only tiny downside I can think of is that the shower in the master bath was very small. But this didn’t bother us, and we actually loved the house and had plenty of room for 8 people.

Great for Families
Great family spot. The large yard and play area is great for younger kids to burn off energy while the adults relax around the fire pit or on the deck. The kitchen easily seats a family of six. Two living areas means the kids can watch TV while the adults enjoy conversation or just a quiet moment. Only drawback is the shower in the master bath is very small.

Absolutely loved it
We had the most amazing time in Chattanooga. And the stay was just the icing on the cake. We had everything, literally everything, we needed to make our stay easy. We saved so much money not having to eat out, go to the park, Laundromat, and so much more this place had to offer. The neighborhood is quant and we were visited by a different sweet dog every day. My toddler enjoyed the play area and drawing with chalk under carport. The neighbor was very sweet and told about things to do within walking distance. The host provided snacks and it was such a a great touch. They are a has so much to offer and so much we will need to come back and do. We can't wait to stay again. ❤️

Pleasant Stay
Great little place for our family (2 teens, 2 young adults, 2 parents) to stay while we visited Chattanooga. Loved that it was away from the business of the city, but an easy drive to Chattanooga (about 20 mins). Had everything we needed and we enjoyed the 2 dogs that came to visit us on the porch while we ate dinner.

Great mini-vacation!
Sharon is great! The home is cozy, clean and beautifully decorated. It was a little farther out than I realized but the house was perfect for my husband and myself along with our daughter, son-in-law and grandson (20 months old). It gave us a place where we felt comfortable with him down walking around. We would not have had this kind of peace of mind in a hotel with him. Thank you for the personal touches and a much needed get-away. Our grandson loved the aquarium and the zoo!

Quaint Mountain Retreat
Quaint little home on the mountain provided a quiet and peaceful weekend for me and my 2 children. My youngest enjoyed the playgroud and my older child enjoyed the outdoors on the back porch. Home is comfortable and Sharon left a sweet note and some snacks on the table to welcome us! She was very communicative and understanding when our departure plans were unexpectedly delayed due to weather. Check-in was a breeze- clear instructions and effortless. *just a little observation: the primary bathroom shower may be a little tight if you're on the taller side ;). Overall- would certainly stay here again especially if most of your adventures are on the trails or in Chatt!

The house was absolutely delightful. Very clean. Lots of kind details like throw blankets. The host even left a little welcome basket with s'mores things, which was incredibly thoughtful.

More than expected….in a good way!
We’ve been to many VRBO properties and this one, by far, had the most “everything “ that we’ve ever experienced! A nice card and snacks as we arrived from the owner, more than enough towels and rags of all kinds, plenty of dishes, pots and pans, even extra cleaning supplies and baggies. Anything you could want you could find. Tidy and well decorated, so it felt like home. Even the bathroom spray was a nice touch. The back porch was lovely to sit on and relax. We would definitely return if we visit the area again!
