Hosts were responsive, professional, and knowledgeable. They were very helpful with all and accommodating with my needs. Property was clean and well stocked. Highly recommended.
Located near lots of beautiful sites along suck creek and the Tennessee River. Feels rural and surrounded by nature but just a few minutes from grocery stores.
5/5 Stars – Absolutely Unforgettable Stay in the Gorge!We had an incredible stay at this property! From the moment we arrived, everything was spotless, comfortable, and clearly prepared with so much thought and care. Suzanne and Brittany were phenomenal hosts—communication was quick and helpful, and every single detail inside the house was handled perfectly to make us feel right at home. They really went above and beyond with their hospitality!The location along Suck Creek Road is nothing short of breathtaking. You get total mountain and river valley peace, while still being just a short, easy drive (10–15 minutes) into Downtown Chattanooga.What we loved about the surrounding area:Nature & Outdoors right down the street: You are right next to the Tennessee River Gorge and Prentice Cooper State Forest, which offers incredible hiking trails, scenic overlooks (like Snoop's Bluff), and local swimming spots along Suck Creek.Nearby Bites & Drinks: Grabbed great food right nearby at River Drifters (super close for casual eats and drinks by the water), and checked out local spots at the base of Signal Mountain.Downtown Access: It was so convenient to head into the NorthShore neighborhood for local coffee shops, shops, and restaurants, or pop across the bridge to the Tennessee Aquarium, Coolidge Park, and the Hunter Museum.Everything about this stay was top-tier. Huge thanks to Suzanne and Brittany for making our trip so special—we will definitely be back!
Home was clean and well supplied, only hiccup we experienced was a bit of a strange texture with the water. Host was very friendly and had great communication.
We stayed in Chat while on collegiate tours for our son. Great nature surroundings and fun ti explore in our extra time. Love the sound of the creek at all times. Perfect getaway.
Beautiful property located in an ideal location for all the fun things to do in and around Chattanooga. Wonderful communication with the owners. Would book again.
Our stay in Chattanooga was memorable and comfortable. This small house is well-equipped and perfect for our needs. Very clean throughout with comfortable beds. While visiting the area we went to Rock City/lookout mountain, Chickamauga National Battlefield, downtown Chattanooga, and evening kayaking for the endangered grey bat emergence at Nickajack refuge area lake.
We had such a lovely stay here and really enjoyed our time! The home was well stocked with thoughtful touches—there were so many board games, kids books, and toys, which made a huge difference for our two little ones. They had an absolute blast and stayed entertained the whole trip.The location is beautiful, with water right across the street and so much nature to explore nearby. It really gave us that peaceful Tennessee feel we were hoping for. We also really enjoyed spending time around the fire pit in the evenings—it was such a nice way to unwind.A couple of things to note for future guests: the home is older, but it is well maintained and everything felt clean and functional. We did notice a wasp nest outside, so there were some wasps flying around during our stay. It wasn’t a major issue, just something to be aware of if you’re spending a lot of time outdoors.Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend this home to others looking for a relaxing, nature-filled stay!

Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
House was nice with all the basic daily necessities. Driveway to enter property was narrow and dangerous to enter and exit the road. The water hole that is advertised was across the street and dry, No water at all to swim or get wet in.

Thanks for your comments, Beth. We're in the process of making changes to the driveway. Some drivers on Suck Creek Road can be a challenge. Unfortunately, we have zero control over how others drive. And just to be clear, I note in the listing several times that creek levels are dependent upon the amount of rain we've recently received. I'm sorry if you missed that, but even when dry, Suck Creek is beautiful to explore.
Our stay was as we expected, amazing. They had everything that you could possibly need in a home and more. The location of the property was the best part. Chattanooga is a 10-15 minute drive depending on traffic (which isn't bad at all) and the river is right across the road from the driveway. It is a bit of a climb down, but well worth the view. The home was very clean, and the kitchen had just about everything needed for cooking. Our stay was definitely a 10 out of 10. Me and the family will absolutely be coming back for another stay.
We stayed here for thanksgiving 2022. The house was lovely, cozy, and spotless. A great kitchen for food prep and cooking (although the coiltop range is maybe not my fave—overall it seems like natural gas is not common in this area). Beds were comfy and plenty of room for our family of four. We could’ve easily had an additional family stay with us! I must also mention the couch, which was velvet and sooo comfy. I want one just like it! One thing to mention—not a flaw or a fault—but the well water is quite well-y as well water tends to be in the south. It didn’t bother me but leave extra time to rinse conditioner out of your hair! There was an awesome water filter in the fridge for drinking water.
I’m sure the surrounding natural areas are wonderful to explore but we didn’t get to do that given all the thanksgiving festivities. However, the views were sublime and the yard was great for the kids to run around. It was a quick ride into town as well, with easy access to all kinds of shopping and activities.
The owner Susanna was lovely to communicate with. We didn’t have any issues but I did ask her where the heck she got that couch! And she also had to get in touch with us after we checked out bc we hid the tv remotes from our kids a little TOO well. Whoops.
I’d absolutely stay here again!
The house was clean and very cute. Very well appointed. Had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Susanna was a dream to work with. Communication was awesome!
