Was peaceful and quiet. The view was beautiful in the night and mornings for the front porch. The furniture could use some updates but overall had a wonderful stay. Perfect for our family. Thanks!

Great Location,
We chose this location due to its proximity to the attractions we would be visiting during our weekend in Chattanooga - it was very convenient. Upon arrival, the smell of marijuana was overwhelming I'm assuming from the permanent resident behind the cabin. On the entryway table we were greeted with "smoke out" air spray so obviously a known issue. The cabin for the most part was clean but there have obviously been some misses, for example: the stairs had heavy dirt and debris buildup, the shower was dirty, the couch was stained, some of the blankets were not freshly cleaned. There were also several mouse traps scattered around in the living area and the kitchen. My child found them. You can tell someone cleans well because the kitchen appliances and floors were spotless - just had a lot of areas that had been forgotten for too long. Upon stripping the beds to checkout, found the heavily stained mattresses. For the price, not terrible...

Great location to local attractions
Very cute cabin, you can see the details in the beams and through out the cabin. The cabin is setup more of a duplex, with a really quiet neighbor and neighborhood perfect for a one-night getaway or longer the oven works great we made cookies! Coffee was provided which went perfect with the morning fog coming off the mountain.

Great price and location
My fiancé and I planned to be out and about for the the 5 days we’d be in town and this was a very good location to do so. I’d say you get exactly what you pay for given how inexpensive it is (some questionable amenities, a mouse encounter, but very cute house overall).

Had a great stay and the host was communicative throughout. Some of the furniture and amenities (dishes, kitchenware, etc) are outdated and need to be updated. The cleanliness was satisfactory. Overall, we enjoyed the cabin and would come again!

Was not visible to find in the dark. Was close to everything we wanted to do. Had everything as advertised. Billing was confusing since all was not totaled at the time of paying. Got a message 3 days before that such in such was not included in total price. Was informed that I needed to budget better by a representative.

It was exactly as listed. Very comfortable 10 minutes to everything. Very economical it was cheaper to stay here than bring our camper. They had every we needed there and we saved money being able to cook rather than eat out every meal. Overall this is a great place nothing fancy but very nice. Tv could be bigger but I wasn’t there to watch tv.

First of all, the pictures don't show you all of the property. There is a tarp covering that blocks views of the house that someone lives in and a travel trailer parked in the driveway. We pulled up to all of the lights on and the t.v. was on. There is a door that leads from the cabin to where the guy lives which is very creepy.The door is in the room where the bunk beds are. When we got ready for bed we found that one of the beds didn't have the sheets taken off from the former guest. The sheets were covered in "bodily fluids", hair and there was mold on the mattress. No one slept in that bed, which meant one of my kids didn't get a bed and had to sleep on a couch. We sent pictures of the bed to the host and he said for us to just change the sheets! I told him the mattress needs to be replaced. I am very surprised that Expedia and VRBO has this place on their websites. If you like creepy cabins that look like the back yard is from a horror movie and a very nasty bed, then this might be the place for you. IF YOU LIKE QUIET, CLEAN, AND FEELING SAFE THEN STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! My family will never let me live this choice down!

Mostly good
The area that is visible in the photos is only the front of the house, which I find a little deceptive. I was shocked when I pulled up and saw that the house was a lot bigger than it showed in the photos and there were cars in the driveway. My understanding is that a full time renter lives in the back of the house, although as a group of young women we were thrown off by the employee only doors and decided to all sleep in the upstairs room because it locked from the inside. Throughout our stay we got more comfortable and barely even heard our neighboring tenant. Some of the dishes were still slightly dirty but it was an easy fix. I was grateful that they provided laundry detergent and fabric softener sheets because we didn't want to buy any just for the trip. The only thing that I think needs to be fixed somehow is the air conditioning in the loft, it has a fan and a window unit but it was still super super hot at night. Overall I would stay here again, I didn't have the highest expectations since the price is such a great deal. I plan to stay here again in the future!

The upstairs bed frame was broken so we had to put the mattress on the floor to sleep. The coffee maker was broken, would not turn on and smelled like vinegar. The upstairs air conditioner was not on upon arrival so the place was 90 untill 11 pm the first night. We found roaches in the kitchen every day

Don’t be fooled by the pictures
Area was not what you’d expect for a “cute” little cabin. Also resident that stays on property is not in a separate building. There is a large tent like structure that is not picture on side of building. When we arrived there was already 4 cars in the driveway. You’d be better off getting a nice hotel downtown. We did not stay.

This property was not what it appears in the pictures and the surroundings include a house across the street that is marked IN VIOLATION and uninhabitable. There was also a canvas structure built attached to the cabin that someone lives in. It is literally attached to the cabin. Drove 800 miles and left once i walked the site.

good location, bad cleanliness and also a mice problem
the location was amazing. really close to stores, hiking, etc. our main issue coming in was that we all wanted to cook food rather than going out every day. the kitchen didn’t have a hood vent. there’s not a ton of counter space. cooking for four people was a challenge but it worked. it was the second day that we saw our bread was eaten by a mouse. we were told that the picture of the eaten food was not sufficient for a refund so we ended up putting all our food in the car or the fridge for safekeeping. they did put out more mouse traps, but two of them went off without even catching the mouse and the sticky traps didn’t work. not to mention, the lady they sent to set up the traps admitted that they had been trying to catch the mouse four weeks prior to our stay. my friend said a bug crawled on her pillow while staying on the top bunk and that the sheets had some mysterious stain on the top bunk. there was also a musty smell upon arrival but a couple of candles helped remedy that. we also found a lot of toys and dust under the coffee table assuming they were from different guests. i would say, all in all, the cabin could’ve been cleaned more thoroughly and they should warn about the mice BEFORE we came. if we had known, we wouldn’t have stayed here obviously.

Overall Okay Stay
The location is great. Really close to all the things we wanted to do in Chattanooga. The other person is attached to the property but there’s no access to the rental and we only saw him a couple times. He didn’t bother us at all. We did have a few issues that we were not ok within the property. We contacted the property manager and he was very nice and did the best he could. The cleaner came out and she was so nice and did everything she could as well. So we did appreciate that. Overall, we did have a decent stay!

Bugs!
First of all they need to fire their cleaning crew. For a steep cleaning fee I would except better. We walked in and every thing was covered in about an inch of dust. Used towels still hanging up in the bathroom and worst of all baby ROACHES in the bathroom and kitchen Also I read in the description that there is a full time renter in the back of the property. Did not mention the renter is attached to the cabin. Look out your window and your staring into this guy's porch. Whole situation was a little odd. Disappointed

Roaches
We were not happy to see a giant cockroach scuttling across the floor right before bed. We left the next morning. I understand that’s common in the south, but rental properties should be sprayed for pest control. That was a HUGE turn-off, especially for midwesterners, like us. We were also charged a cleaning fee, when we weren’t there long enough to make a mess. We slept in the bed (barely) one time, we showered once, we never turned on the stove or used the dishes. I even left room deodorizers I bought on the day we got there, as the cabin smelled strongly of mold & mildew. Plus, there was a dead cat lying next to the mailbox, which made things even more sad. This was our 1st vacation in 10 yrs. We’ve never been on one. We were really looking forward to it. Instead, we were deeply disappointed. Not a good part of town either. We were not aware, since we’re from MN, not TN.

lots of maintenance issu, cleaning is yet to be desired. Lack of supplies
My children swept the stairs when we arrived and got a half of dust pan of dirt of them. Living room curtains fell off hook a million times.was giving 2 trash bags, 3rolls of toilet paper ,1 roll of paper towels for 4 people for 7 days. We had to go buy the supplies ourselves. Was given 4 towels / wash cloths that I had to wash while staying. No fresh towels left at the front door . Never seen anyone the entire stay. Check in process was ridiculously stressful

We only spent one night and as soon as we arrived, we were wishing we could stay longer. Just the atmosphere in the cabin was relaxing and homey. The only thing I would suggest would be a small light at the top of stairs since they are so close to the bedroom door. Imagine needing a bathroom break at 3 am and stepping out bedroom door. That first step is a doozy! Lol Other than that, this cabin is perfect!!!❤️

This rental definitely captured the cabin ambience! Some of the reviews made me a little nervous but we loved it! We stayed for three nights and saw two small bugs inside the entire visit so I wouldn't worry about the reviews mentioning bugs. The stairs are very dark so be careful. They have plenty of fans and heaters available if you have a largers group with unique preferences. Upstairs bed is very comfortable but it is definitely snuggling size. We didn't cook on vacation but they had a decent set up of kitchen supplies for people more motivated than we were. It was less than twenty minutes away from Lookout Mountain, Ruby Falls, Rocket Fizz (we highly recommend this candy store), and a wide variety of hiking and food options. One of our dogs was very sure he would catch a mouse during our stay, despite signs that one may be in the area we never actually saw one and none of our food was nibbled so we had no problem with it
