About this property

Newly Renovated Cabin Close to Downtown Chattanooga

Welcome to our newly renovated & custom-built log cabin at the foot of Elder Mountain. Only 7 minutes away from downtown Chattanooga and the fast-growing Northshore. Chattanooga was home to the Iron Man in 2017 and has become an annual event space & home to of many concerts goers, river tourers, & many intellectual foodies. Enjoy hiking, fishing, swimming and much more not only in downtown but on our property too! Nestled in the little town of Lookout Valley, the cabin has its own private pond (private from public but members of our family may be there at times) and cookout area (public). We have two charcoal grills/smokers at the Cabin that are private to you and your family. Our hot tub is open year around & is right off our wrap around deck with easy house to spa access. It is especially pretty at night with the deck string lights shining on the tub! For those of you who are bringing young children, we have a kids corner that is made to feel at home. This cabin has newly purchased patio and indoor furniture and unique custom furniture built by the owner and from wood milled off the property. We can sleep anywhere from 2 to 11 and there is a large newly renovated den downstairs for games or movies. Enjoy special time with family or friends in this one-of-a-kind log cabin. Don't forget to ask about the heartwarming story behind the cabin.
PLEASE BE ADVISED THIS CABIN IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS. WE ARE SURROUNDED BY NATURE.

We were grateful that the weather was mild and the lack of gas heat was not a problem with the generous use of space heaters. The Christmas tree and decorations were a pleasant surprise for our holiday gathering. Everything was clean and orderly.

We loved hanging out at the house, on the porches, in the hot tub. Location was excellent because it was surprisingly close to everything while leaving us feeling as if we were in the country when at the cabin. Great stay!

Fantastic family vacation

This was the perfect place for our family, which included 6 adults, 5 children, and 2 dogs. Great location near several attractions. The kids loved the pond and the whole family appreciated the air conditioning during a heat wave. Kitchen was well stocked and host was responsive too!

Fabulous wedding get away

Perfect place to host a group of family and friends. Lots of space and very homey. Close to the city, but out far enough to feel you are in the mountains with city life far away. Loved the set up. Fishing pond was an added bonus. Would definitely book again if ever in Chattanooga again.

Beautiful Cabin/Family Friendly

We were pleasantly surprised that the description matched the actual site. You are definitely in the woods, in a cabin and have lots of space inside and outside! The kids play area was awesome, the beds were all comfortable and plenty of dishes and cookware in the kitchen!

Great location and place for family to gather!

We stayed in the cabin to visit with family in the area and loved how perfectly the size, bathroom number, and amenities fit our needs. It's really close to the city but far enough away to feel relaxing. It had everything we needed and was a huge space to host birthday and easter celebrations. Would definitely come back!

Great for a family getaway

The cabin is just as pictured only bigger! Perfect location for local attractions and downtown. There was plenty of room for sleeping, dining and game night, and the kids loved the play area and bunk beds. The access roads are narrow and bumpy but passable. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect family getaway

Property was perfect for our family. We had young adults, middle aged adults, young children and grandparents. There was plenty of of sleeping and common areas so that we could all be together or have our own private spaces. Kitchen was well equipped and host was very responsive.

Relaxing Get Away

We couldn’t have enjoyed ourselves more! The cabin is spacious, yet cozy. The entire property is just simply relaxing and beautiful. The host was very responsive and helpful- we plan to come back next summer! It’s amazing how it’s tucked up in the woods, but a quick 10 minute drive to downtown. We highly recommend this sweet cabin!

Chattanooga fun

We thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful cabin in the woods, just minutes from downtown. Beds and furniture very comfortable; plenty of space for game nights or outdoor frisbee! The hosts were super helpful in bringing a couple missing items (can’t help thieving guests 😡) and very informative on non touristy adventures! Would recommend this cabin in a heartbeat!

Great family get together

This cabin ticked all our boxes with beds for everyone, and a table that seats 10 for game time. Our family loves playing games together. It was a little cold for boating, but we enjoyed a walk around the pond. We appreciated the owner for having everything ready for a campfire with firewood and a starter so we could share ghosts stories with smores. Thanks!

Family Celebration Stay

My sisters, daughter and I had a great time in Chattanooga. We were only at the cabin two nights so did not get to really “scope” out the area. The beds snd furniture were comfortable. Only bad things that happened were a mouse was in the kitchen, a toilet was clogged and coffee grounds were found in the coffee pot when we artived there.

About the host

Hosted by Jason and Carey

Host profile image
Hello! Our names are Jason and Carey and we are twin brother and sister! We grew up on this property. Our late grandfather built this cabin in 1986. As kids we camped, hiked, biked, road 4 wheeler's, swam, cooked out and learned life lessons. It has truly been a blessing growing up here. Around 1990, our grandfather started digging for the lake. Some people say it is a pond. We have called it "The Lake" for 30 years. The lake/pond is 1.88 acres. The deepest part is in the middle. There are natural springs on the bottom and we also have water coming in from the creek. The water also flows down a drain pipe and we have an overflow. We grew up swimming in "the lake" so we think it's a little piece of heaven. Some folks don't like swimming where you can't see the bottom or feel a lake weed. We can provide information on other swimming areas. There are paddle boards and a pedal boat.

Why they chose this property

This is family property and a few neighbors that aren't blood related but we all consider each other family.

What makes this property unique

There isn't another place like this property in our area. We have15 acres between the two of us and living so close to the city, we have all the benefits of the city but the serenity of a cabin in the woods.
