About this property

Brilliant Southside Home on 2 Acre Park + Pet Friendly

Enjoy the best of Southside restaurants and downtown attractions within walking distance from Chattanooga’s first LEED certified home.
Sustainable + Efficient design across the street from park, playground & pavilion. Plentiful + free parking. Perfect for families vacationing, visiting relatives or participating in Ironman/Athletic competitions or work remotely with the fastest residential internet - The Gig!

Entrance to the home is through the front door equipped with door code lock. On street parking is free of charge. For parking, we ask our guests to not park in the driveway nor behind the home as it is a shared driveway. Please park either directly in front & along the chain link fence or across the street.

Behind the house there are train tracks. Trains come though night and day. The trains can sometimes be heard or sometimes they will clank together or squeak. To help with this, we have white noise machines beside all the beds, fans in front & back bedrooms and extra pillows. The sound machines work well and guests report they drown out any noises so you can sleep without interruption. There are two settings on the white noise machines (high and low). I have also provided complimentary single use ear plugs.

This home could not have been more perfect for our long weekend in Chattanooga. The kitchen and bedrooms had everything we could need for our kids, as well as the adults. It’s in the perfect location to explore the city, with a comfortable layout to watch football at the end of the day. The only thing we needed to bring was a baby gate for the steps. We hope to stay again soon!

Beautiful and spacious. Everything you need and more! Blackout shades and white noise machines already set up in all bedrooms was amazing! Best location close to so much and the park right out the front door with a playground was perfect for our 2 small children. Jenny was a great host!

Close to perfect

In a part of town that is rebuilding. Lots of great properties. Convenient to downtown. Lots of great eats close by. Host was amazing! Quick responses and great suggestions. The accommodations worked perfectly for our stay. Couldn’t have been more pleased. The railroad is very close to the back of the house and very active but it did not disturb our sleep.

Beautiful Home and Neighborhood

The home was beautiful and clean. The kids loved the playground and running around the park across from the home. We walked to get coffee and shopped at Poor Taste(very cute vintage shop). Jennie was very easy to communicate with. I could not locate a blender in the home and she had one delivered to the house the next day! Amazing host! Can’t wait to stay here again. We loved the neighborhood and vibe of the area. Very good restaurants. Southside Social was a hit with the fam.

Our stay was superb! The house is lovely! It’s beautifully decorated and extremely clean! The train didn’t bother any of us even without the ear plugs provided by the owner. The best part was the neighborhood and close proximity to all the fun things Chattanooga has to offer families. Southside has so much to offer regarding coffee, lunch, and dinner, and the neighborhood felt so safe. The only thing I wish I had known before hand was that there are two steps separating the kitchen from the den. Our toddler hasn’t quite mastered stairs, so that was a bit of a struggle. The owner was one of the most responsive host with whom we have ever experienced! We had a need one evening and the product was on the porch when we woke up! If back in Chattanooga, we would definitely come back here!

Very convenient to Lookout Mtn. activities and downtown. Very clean and spacious. Only real concern was lack of any shower bars in master since we are elderly. Granddaughters loved the bunks and the low basketball goal as well as park. Trains run all night and we were not bothered but back bedroom was. Jennie was a great host. Very responsive and helpful.

Centrally located

The property was wonderfully clean, well apportioned, and though driving to it felt like we were passing through a sketchy neighborhood, we actually found it to be quiet welcoming and felt safe with parking our vehicle behind the property. The owner warned about train noise, but also supplied noise reduction items. The trains ran constantly it seemed, but were surprisingly quiet within the property. The park was small but the dogs loved walking around it, and if you don’t mind some mileage, you could walk to food in the city pretty easily. The owner was very responsive. We would definitely stay here again.
