About this property

Embrace your inner wizard!!
Whether you're looking for a secluded getaway or a place to relax after sightseeing in nearby Chattanooga, Tennessee, this magical hut has everything you need.

The Space:
This cozy tiny home is under 290 square feet inside and styled with a modern take on our favorite magical groundskeeper's hut.

As a tiny home, the interior space is small, but well utilized. The bedroom and bathroom are in the back of the home. There is one queen sized bed perfect for up to two guests. The bathroom is next to the bedroom and has a small walk-in shower and toilet area. The kitchen and living area are located in the front of the home. The kitchen amenities include a small stove top, small fridge with freezer, microwave, and coffee maker. In the living area, enjoy the electric fireplace or smart TV where you are free to log into any streaming services you have. For your safety, please do not disturb any mandrakes or bowtruckles who share the living space.

The outdoor amenities abound with a large 175 square foot porch. The porch has an outdoor kitchen area with a grill with a pizza oven, two eye stove top and wet bar to concoct any magical potions. Additionally, the porch boasts an outdoor shower. Step off the porch to enjoy the fire pit area. At night, you may be able to hear some of the frogs that have retired from a famous wizarding school's Frog Choir.

Guest Access:
You will have the entire tiny home and outdoor spaces to yourself to enjoy. The entire property is approximately 3 acres within a fenced border and you are welcome to utilize any of this space during your stay. Feel free to take a morning walk through the field or enjoy the two small ponds and all the creatures that live there. There is no swimming so as to not disturb the grindylows in the top pond and the giant squid in the lower pond.

We live in the house to the left of the driveway as you enter the property and will be available if you need anything during your stay.

Other Things to Note:
If you are looking to site-see, we are located within 25 miles of sites such as the Tennessee Aquarium, Rock City, Ruby Falls, Chattanooga Zoo, and Creative Discovery Museum.

We are located approximately 20 miles from downtown Chattanooga where you'll find tons of amazing restaurants. Please note that you'll want to plan on eating out or utilizing the indoor or outdoor kitchen spaces during your stay as the Magical Creatures Caretaker Hut is not within the range of delivery locations.

The Perfect Magical Hideaway

We loved staying here so much! While small it felt cozy rather than cramped while still having all the necessities. Stronger internet would have been great but it worked well enough. The water stayed hot wayyyyy longer than we were expecting which was great, and we loved the outdoor shower!

Caretakers cabin was too cute

The property is a little off the beaten track but the property was really lovely and quiet. The tiny home was clean and really had all kinds of little extras like some snacks, coffee, tea bags etc. The Harry Potter feel was too cute. It was too cold to use the outdoor amenities but they were clean and organized.

Great Place to Spend a Weekend Relaxing and Riding Your Inner Nimbus 2000

We loved the place. It was clean and comfortable and had a lot of character. The owners were super responsive and provided a ton of very thoughtful touches that go above and beyond any other stay that we have been to. It is a bit remote while being central to Chattanooga and Trenton. It is very tranquil and slightly whimsical with a flair that Harry Potter fans will appreciate.

Even though the cabin is tiny, it had everything we needed. The Caretaker would be proud of his home in Georgia. This deck and farm setting was relaxing and perfect for our needs.

Lovely Weekend Getaway!

My girlfriend and I stayed at the “Magical Creature Caretaker Cabin” for a long weekend in early Spring 2025 and had a wonderful time! The property was immaculate and looked just like the images online. We enjoyed relaxing on the hammock and sipping coffee by the fire pit in the morning (and wine late into the evening ). The hosts provided a nice selection of snacks and toiletries, which we used. The location of the cabin was very convenient as we were only a 20-30 minute drive from downtown Chattanooga and the attractions we visited (Ruby Falls and Lookout Mountain).The Harry Potter theme, both inside and out was so cute with lots of hidden Easter eggs and decorations (dragon eggs, owls, magic potions, and of course the monster book of monsters!) but it didn’t detract from the function and livability of the cabin. The indoor shower had excellent water pressure and was able to get pretty hot, which my girlfriend appreciated.The hosts, David and Tonya, were very helpful, providing clear instructions on how to access the cabin as well as other helpful tips. We ran out of fire starter after our first night, and they promptly re-supplied us with a new one the very next day. My girlfriend and I had such a great time! We’ve already told all our friends and family and highly recommend to anyone!
