About this property

Brookside Cottage, a cozy country cottage for a peaceful getaway.

Enjoy the peacefulness of our quiet country setting. Listen to the babbling brook as you relax on the rocking chairs with a cup of coffee or enjoy a campfire beside its bank. The Cottage has new high-speed internet (Starlink-Elon Musk) so working remotely, streaming classes online, or using your streaming services with the cottage’s new Amazon Fire are great options for a peaceful evening. The kitchen is fully stocked with Keurig, k-cups (including decaf), and a traditional coffee maker. Alternatively, the cottage is only 15 minutes from shopping and restaurants. Close to several great mountain biking trails, white water rafting, hiking, and fishing. 45 minutes to downtown Chattanooga.

We welcome wedding guests as well! The Brookside Cottage is located within a short drive of several area venues including The Views at Sunset Ridge (2.5 miles) The Barn at Ross Farm (2.5 miles), Hidden Springs (9.3 miles) and the Coffey Barn (15 miles).

Brookside Cottage is a great place to relax and enjoy the peacefulness of the country while having access to all the area has to offer! We also have self check-in and out for a streamlined and convenient process.

We look forward to hosting you!

Philip and Molly R.

What a great experience. Far enough from Cleveland and Chattanooga to be restful and close enough to be accessible. The friendliness and charm of Jack the Mule, the kittens, and the host make this a must-stay.
