Great spot we shared with another family for a church conference in ChattanoogaClean, updated, and plenty of room for the two families.Cute little neighborhood close to place we needed to go
Enjoyed our stay here with 3 small kids. Very close to Rock City and Ruby Falls. Loved the park that is in walking distance to the house. Short drive in to town for all the other attractions. House was comfortable and had everything we needed!
The property was clean, stocked, and close to everything we wanted to enjoy. The neighbors in the neighborhood are lovely and everyone is very dog friendly.
We really enjoyed this quick trip to Chattanooga with our mother in law and 3 kids. This home was perfect for us. The kids loved the bunk room and fought over the top bunk, LOL! The location in St. Elmo was a beautiful setting at the base of Lookout mountain. We will definitely stay here if visiting in the future
We had a great stay! The house is cure, clean, and comfortable. We loved the backyard firepit, and our teens loved the big bunk beds. Check in/out was easy.
We came to Chattanooga for an abbreviated spring break with our two kids (7 and 18 months). This property was perfect! It had everything we needed- in great neighborhood close to all of the attractions but nestled in a cute neighborhood!
We loved this property in the St Elmo neighborhood of Chattanooga. It's a super cute community and had really easy access to downtown and some the main attractions like Ruby Falls on lookout mountain.The house itself is really nicely laid out with plenty of space for relaxing and eating. My kids really liked the three tier bunk bed and I really liked how strudily it was built! Highly recommend for your next visit to Chatt!
This location was the perfect pick for my small family of three. The neighborhood was very quiet and close to many restaurants and also to popular attractions like Ruby Falls. The only thing I’d have to say is the mattresses on the beds were not all that comfortable but it does not take away the five star review. We’d love to come back in the near future to stay again!
We were a group of two grandparents, two parents and a 2 1/2 year old. The house was charming and light filled. The neighborhood very walkable with park nearby for children. The Hot Chocolatier, several blocks further is worth visiting. An easy drive to many attractions and restaurants. We would consider staying there again.
Visited Chattanooga with my family and parents. The house was comfortable and clean. It is on a one way street in a great location that is close to almost everything you would want to visit.The kids liked having their own room with a bunk bed. I have small children so we did walk to the local playground a few times which is nice. We had a great trip and I would definitely stay here again when I travel to Chattanooga. The only suggestion I would offer is to maybe get a couple of charging towers for phones, ipads, etc. for the house.
Clean and Comfortable, Washer and dryer,dishwasher was nice and of course people traveling left extra coffee, sugar, and some other things that were nice to have there.
Great place in a great location. Perfect for our family of 5. The house was clean, had plenty of space, and all the amenities people traveling with kids could ask for!
Highly recommend staying here! It’s located in such a cute area and the playground close by was a huge plus with us having 2 boys. Plenty of space and everything was very clean! The hosts were so thorough in every detail from check in to check out. We will definitely plan on coming back again soon!
For a quick trip to Chattanooga with the family, I couldn’t have picked a better spot. Perfectly clean house, great location — two thumbs up.
Would absolutely do it again
Fantastic stay in close distance to all the things to do! Our group was two friends with their kids (5 kids 8 and under) The house fit us all perfectly and was great for us to come back to after touring. Would recommend this property.
Very neat house in the historic St Elmo’s neighborhood in Chattanooga. Plenty of space for a small family and nice outdoor spaces as well. Definitely saving this place for future visits.

About the host
Hosted by Sherry and Francesco
My husband and I have been involved with the resurgence of our neighborhood over the past 15 years and are now eager to share it with new people. We love VRBO and are excited about creating new spaces to show off our neighborhood. We enjoy working with local artists and creating spaces for them to flourish, this is our passion. We have two rambunctious and adventurous children that keep us on our toes and feeling young!
Why they chose this property
Enjoy the neighborhood park, the abundant hiking trails that lead to waterfalls and majestic Tennessee views. St Elmo is teaming with locally owned and operated businesses. Our own neighborhood pub, Moccasin Bend Brewing Company, where you can meet the locals or take home a growler (you can also bring your dogs). Visit Mojo Burrito, delicious food in a hip environment, 1885 Restaurant for a more upscale dining experience, don't miss out on their incredible fresh water trout blackened or grilled, or St. Elmo's own Purple Daisy and dine on a BBQ sandwich. St. Elmo Deli will provide you with the perfect lunch on the run. Don't forget Mr.T's Pizza and hand scooped ice cream that has been in the neighborhood for over 20 years!!!! The choices are endless!
What makes this property unique
We can point you in the direction of almost anything that you would like to enjoy in Chattanooga. See seven states from Rock City, visit the nation's largest and deepest underground waterfall at Ruby Falls, take a short ride on the Incline Railway to ascend and descend Lookout Mt, where you have access to amazing views from the top of Lookout Mountain from Point Park, or visit Sunset Rock. We are a mere 5 miles from downtown Chattanooga. Enjoy the river front at Ross's landing on the banks of the Tennessee River, visit the Tennessee Aquarium, and walk right down Broad St and enjoy a Moon Pie! How would you like to see the Hunter Museum or take a walk across the nation's longest pedestrian bridge to Coolidge park in North Chattanooga? There are many locally owned businesses and also some familiar favorites. The list is endless!! (That's just getting to see Chattanooga as a tourist!)
