Very Nice Place

The house was nice and clean and a good neighborhood. The property owner was very kind and even cooked us a couple of desserts and a pot of soup. She’s an excellent cook. The master bedroom has a king size bed with a full bath. The second bedroom has a full-size bed with a full bath. A futon can sleep two in the sunroom. I wasn’t sure about it at first, but I slept very well on it. Well laid out place and an excellent choice if you want to stay close to Chattanooga. It’s less than a mile to a couple of restaurants, fast food, gas, and groceries. It’s about 10 minutes to downtown Chattanooga, and 15 minutes to North Shore . Excellent place.

Mountain home away from home

Very comfy clean home. All of us expressed how comfortable the beds where! The couches and front porch chairs where so nice. Every morning I seen a Mother deer with her 2 fawns. So peaceful. The owner is very sweet. She left a care package for us which was very thoughtful. My dog did very well. The showers have excellant water pressure. We had 7 stay and all had to get ready for a wedding. This home has a huge master bath with a dressing room with a huge mirror to support 4 adult women putting makeup on, and steaming clothes. I would stay here again, if ever I go to Chattanooga again!

Liked the location and it was quiet neighborhood. They could of worded the sleeping areas better in Expedia. I had to go to vrbo to find that out. It could have been swept better and the refrigerator was a newer model but I don't think it had been cleaned in a year or more.
