TYPICAL GUEST COMMENT:
"The band barracks was a perfect location for our family gathering. The large open common spaces were comfortable for both adults and children. We were able to prepare a turkey dinner for 18 in the kitchen. We all enjoyed the gas fireplaces on the rainy day of our visit and the close proximity of the Battlefield Park on the good-weather days. We filled the house with music and imagined what it must have been like when the band lived here. This is a grand old house that is welcoming to young and old alike." - Ensign Family Holiday (Dec 2007)
"This was the perfect house for a wonderful vacation. We had 6 adults and 6 teenagers with plenty of room to spare. This house is in the best location for peace and relaxation, but with plenty of things to see and do within minutes. Loved it!" - Cox & Shaw Family Spring Break Vacation (Mar 2008)
"Hoffman Family Reunion, 19 people, 3 generations! The house was bautiful and the perfect size for all of us. the location was great, we did everything there was to do." Hoffman Family (Jun 2008)

My husband and I grew up in Chattanooga and never really realized all the history that was just at our doorstep! After spending 22 years in the military bouncing around the country, we finally settled back in the Chattanooga area and found this wonderful Historic District. We now have two homes on Barnhardt Circle which are being offered as vacation rentals! Yes...they were definately a "labor of love".
