What a great experience! Adorable tiny cabin in the woods. My friends and I had a wonderful time staying the night here. The cabin was so clean, cute, and cozy. Communication with the owners was easy and seamless. The location was perfect for what we needed. We definitely hope to come again!

Overall we loved this property. The layout and decoration was cute and it was a perfect little spot for our family to stay while passing through the area. We only spent one night and were sad that we didn't get to take full advantage of staying on site. We thought the cabin was comfortable and wish we could have stayed longer.The only real complaint we had was that there were ants crawling on the wall in the bedroom which we noticed after my wife and I both said we felt like things were crawling on us all night. Turns out they were, but hey we are in the woods, so bugs should be an understood potential. Seems like an easy fix.

The Perfect Spot

Sophie cabin is a perfect setup for a family of four. We stayed for two nights and the cabin was very well appointed, clean, comfortable, and perfectly located right near downtown.

We loved our stay at the Sophie Cabin. It was a beautiful cabin and very close to downtown but private enough away to feel away from the city. Highly recommend!

Great getaway

We stayed overnight for a trip to the local aquarium. We arrived and had a lovely time. The kids loved the hot tub and the choice of a bunk house or a loft. We loved the space was clean, had everything we needed and felt cozy and comfortable.

Exactly as described and a bit more

We were stopping through the area during travels and had a great stay. It was perfect for our family of 4 and would be great for even a large family. We had so much extra space and our one and three year old had several great places for sleeping.

Easy to find and a nice place. I thought it would be more difficult to get back on the main road but it was easy. My kids loved the little trail and bridge. Will stay here again when we come back to Chattanooga!

Weekend getaway with small kids

The tiny cabin was in a great location. The property was clean and they had all the necessities. The only negatives we encountered were a dirty hot tub and and some bug problems (I think mostly due to the heavy rains in the area). But overall, the loft space was great and the cabin met our needs for our short vacation!

Great stay in a wonderful little cabin!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the cabin. It was just me and my wife but there was room for at least 4 more. Very spacious for a tiny home and perfect for our short getaway trip. The host was also gracious with a couple of date shifts we had to make due to childcare falling through. We really appreciated Timberroot being flexible with us. Overall wonderful stay and would highly recommend to others!

About the host

Hosted by Timberroot Rustic Retreats

Host profile image
I have loved world travels entire life though as father of 8 kids, having 3 in the past 3 years, our movements have been more limited of late. I am an entrepreneur and business owner, lover of history, plants, nature, my faith, philosophy, and my family. We love Chattanooga for too many reasons to list, but also cherish variety and the beauty so many places in the world have to offer.

As hosts, my wife is home alot with our 3 Littles (and 5 not so Littles in the summer) during the day, and we live on the same property as our offering. So you will find us responsive and accommodating and eager to share the treasures of our town and learn the treasures of your own. We know the trails, many waterfalls, parks, restaurants, and attractions of Chattanooga quite well and are willing to be a resource for our guests, offering an intimate knowledge of the area.

As a traveler, on business I tend to work, read and rest if I can, and prefer to travel with associates or family when I can. As a vacationer, I am eager to share and celebrate the diversity of creation and humanity with my family and to give them an explorers heart, a warmth for difference, and a bit of zeal for travel too. I prefer National Parks to cities, but cities carry their own attraction. I prefer mountains to beaches, forests to fields, and local to corporate or suburban.

Why they chose this property

This was an old trailer park. We saw great potential for it, as a gem of a natural setting so incredibly close to the city. We offer a natural escape right on Lookout by the beautiful city of Chattanooga with unique and modern rustic comfort for the perfect mountain side stay.
