This was exactly what we were looking for as a family of 5 and our dog. The location was extremely convenient and centrally located to everything we did in Chatanooga. Everything was as listed and it made it our short getaway comfortable and enjoyable. Carrie was our host, communication was easy and thorough, and checking in and out was seamless. My family and I would most certainly stay here again.

The house was accurately described and the location was very convenient for our family of 4 as we visited downtown Chattanooga (and surrounding areas).The house was well equipped. We enjoyed the walking distance to a nearby restaurant/soon to be brewery. Daughter and husband enjoyed a couple runs to explore the area and exercise. Internet worked well. Communication was great. We would stay there again when we visit Chattanooga.

They had everything we needed to make a complete christmas meal. It was fabulous! The house was in a convient location for us. We will definately stay again.
House fit our needs, and the fenced in yard was an awesome bonus. Location was great, in the sense, everything was about 10 minutes away and easy to get too. Neighborhood was quiet and is in a transition phase. As for the house, it was clean and met our needs. Appreciate kitchen being stocked with cooking supplies. Recommendations to host: additional towels and throw blankets.
Pet friendly. White Duck Taco Shop really good Neighbors we really nice Neighborhood watch came by to ensure dogs would be on leash outside the property.

Roxanne, thank you so much for the fantastic review! We appreciate you taking the time to detail your stay with us and we are so happy to hear that you had a great time. We look forward to hosting you again if you ever find yourself in the area!
House was very nice and clean. Location close to downtown was very convenient. Neighborhood left a little to be desired, but we didn’t feel unsafe. Owner was very easy to reach and quick to respond to questions. Overall, it was a good experience.
Cannot recommend this place enough! Listing was stylish clean and convenient. Carrie was communicative and helpful. Can’t wait to visit again.

Kathryn, thank you so much for the glowing review! We appreciate you taking the time to detail your stay with us and we look forward to hosting you again if you ever find yourself in the area!
It was the perfect place to stay. The dog was so happy and the house was so pretty. The house was clean. It was the ideal place to stay if you are bringing a dog.
The home was in a little off the beaten path. Was a little hard to pick up after my dogs with the tall grass but it was exactly what we needed for an overnight stay.
Clean and attractive. Blue chair leg was broken but still worked. Small shelf fell off front bath shower. One lamp is n back bedroom had no means of turning it on. Overall a lovely place to stay.
This was a clean home, with all the amenities needed. Near to everything we needed. When we come back for a longer week with the whole family we plan to stay here again! Very cozy!
Our family went to Chattanooga for a few days of family vacation. The house was near to all the attractions we wanted to see downtown and at Lookout Mountain. The host was responsive and helpful. Overall it was a good trip.
The house was wonderful. Very clean; had an air purifier and Nest AC. Live plants added an extra warm touch. Beds were comfy and we felt right at home! At first glance, the area seemed a little rough, but it’s incredibly conveniently located and was very quiet. Any neighbors we saw were very kind and friendly. I only mention it because I would have liked to have known ahead of time just to set my expectations. Communication with our host was excellent. Timely, thorough, and really helpful. Check in and check out process was very easy! Will definitely stay again and will recommend to friends.
Our family, 2 adults and 3 kids, stayed for 5 nights. We were driving back and forth a lot to the convention center downtown during our stay and it was only about a 10 min drive so that was convenient. We had plenty of space to spread out. It was extremely hot outside and the house was always nice and cool.Carrie was great at communicating and very nice. There should be more towels and bowls available and the neighborhood was just ok but otherwise it met our needs for our trip and was clean and organized. The bidet is a great feature.

Nice, but...
We enjoyed staying the wknd but the house could use some TLC. It's small but was just right for us. We enjoyed the firepit one night. Brought our own wood. We were missing a tea pot and toaster for breakfast. The master sink filled with water that wouldn't drain very fast. I had a pillow case with mascara stains. The sheets had a smell like they were not freshly washed but had sat a while. The overall house had a bit of a musty smell that went away when we lit some candles. The area was an older, run down looking area, not exactly a place I would walk around in. It was Ok but it could use some more care for a really great stay.

Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent stay. While we appreciate all guest input, we must address several inaccuracies in your review.
Firstly, our property is thoroughly cleaned and inspected before each guest's arrival. The claims regarding the pillowcase and sheets are surprising and do not align with our standard practices. We take great pride in maintaining high cleanliness standards, and we have records of our cleaning protocols.
Regarding the missing teapot and toaster, we encourage guests to communicate any needs during their stay, as we are always willing to assist.
As for the drainage issue, we have not received previous reports, and our maintenance team is regularly scheduled to ensure everything is in working order.
We also want to clarify that the area surrounding our property is a well-established neighborhood, and while it may not meet everyone's aesthetic preferences, we have numerous guests who appreciate its charm and accessibility.
Unfortunately it seems Samantha’s group was not going to be satisfied no matter how hard we tried. We strive for transparency and accountability, and we hope future guests will find our property reflects our commitment to quality.

Chattanooga Family Trip
The property was okay, the neighborhood was a little sketchy, and the grass was 18 inches tall around the house. I called and told them the day we checked in, and actually did have someone come and cut the grass Saturday. There were only four forks in the silverware drawer, and the house sleeps six. We also grilled steaks on the charcoal grill one night, and there were no steak knives to be found! I was disappointed when I asked if they supplied the charcoal, and their response was no. I truly believe if you are renting a house with a grill and you mention that in your ad, you should supply the charcoal. If it were a gas grill, would they want me to unhook the tank and drive all over to find a refill or have it filled up? If you rent a cabin in the mountains and the list a fireplace, the wood is always furnished. The hand towel holder was hanging out from the wall and wasn't usable. There was an old tire lying in the yard along with some beaten-up trash cans. Flower beds were full of weeds and not maintained. The beds were comfortable. The house AC was good. The living room could use a couple of chairs to accommodate six people. All in all, if they work on a few things, it could be brought up to par.

Dear [Guest's Name],
Thank you for your review. We want to address some of your comments directly.
First, it’s offensive to call our neighborhood sketchy. Our community is an old, safe, and diverse area in the heart of Chattanooga that we take pride in.
Regarding your experience with our lawn care, we do have biweekly maintenance scheduled. However, the record rainfall has made it difficult for our team to keep up. Your call to our team member was not just frustrated; it was hateful. You demanded immediate service and hung up on her, yet we still made arrangements to address the lawn once the rain stopped on Friday, the day after you checked in.
We appreciate you bringing maintenance items to our attention, as we are more than happy to address any issues we know about. However, you were aware that we do not provide charcoal ahead of your stay. We strive to supply an abundance of items for our guests, and we regret that some kitchenware fell short during your visit, however this is a bit exaggerated.
Thanks again for your feedback.
