Perfect little getaway! Quaint, fun, and affordable.
The house boat was very clean and well cared for. The marina was very cute. We were able to rent a 2 person paddle boat and had a ball. The stone baked pizza and winery less than a mile away was wonderful. Best pizza we’ve ever had. The Dam Whiskey corp on the property played live music Saturday night that we could hear from the boat. Overall just a lovely experience. We hope to go back!

About the host

Hosted by Delilah Taylor

Host profile image
I'm an avid traveler and prefer unique stays with great hosts. I have stayed in vacation rentals all over the world and want to bring great stays to others. My hometown has tremendous beauty and outdoor activities. It is a shame to keep it to myself.

Why they chose this property

This area is the best of everything near Chattanooga. Get to sleep on the river, stay close to all the activities and have plenty to enjoy at the marina.
Take in all of Tennessee beauty and fun.

What makes this property unique

Why stay near the water when you can stay on the water. Get the best of a tiny house and step out the front door to go fishing, swimming, bird watching or whatever part of nature calls to you.
