Family Reunion

We had wonderful accommodations at this lovely home. The bedrooms are large with ample space to spread out. The bathroom is huge and our party of six had plenty of room to get ready for the day. Melinda made sure we had everything we needed from toiletries to snacks and breakfast items. Would definitely recommend!

Cozy get-away

I can’t say enough about this stay. We both had to work one day out of the residence and had so much space to spread out and not be in each other’s way. I normally do not like fans above my head, but luckily the bedroom we chose was quiet and I barely noticed. The rooms all had white noise machines. The bathroom was spacious. Everything smelled freshly laundered. The nicest of hosts had messaged me the information I needed ahead of time. There were small toiletries in case anything was forgotten and the little kitchenette was fully stocked with water, snacks, and coffee and tea. This was incredibly thoughtful and we took advantage after our long drive that first day & during our work day. We ended up needing an umbrella that was thoughtfully left by the door. It was the most relaxing stay away from home we’ve had in this country. Fantastic!

Really Peaceful and Lovely

Beautiful home and so well-cared for. Very clean and nicely decorated. Close to a public ramp if you like to fish, and close to Chattanooga for entertainment and dining. Everything we needed was provided and our host was kind, helpful and responsive. We would definitely stay here again.
