Amazing

Very clean and neat. Loved the antique and vintage furniture. Very charming farm house. We will stay again someday. I'm already requesting the bedroom that connects to back porch. Watching the sunrise in the morning s was absolutely stunning. Really enjoyed our stay with family.

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

This house will remind you of your grandmother's house, and when you stay here, you will not have a care in the world. At 'The Flarity House,' there is always a gentle breeze and clean air. The huge trees in the yard cast a comfortable shadow on the front porch. This house has more native shrubs, trees, and flowers in the yard than any house on Lookout Mountain. There are numerous outdoor recreation opportunities in the area; including, the lake with fish in the back yard.
