Centrally located for all the local attractions. House could use a detailed cleaning, but nothing major. House was in fair shape, seems like a handyman special. Never found the laundry that was supposed to be there and never got a reply to my questions before arriving. Check in/out was simple enough and the small yard was great for the dogs.

Great stay for our fur babies

This was a great location near cool restaurants and easy highway access. It gave our cats a great place to decompress between long drives. If there was anyone in the adjoining property, we never heard them. Would definitely stay here again.

Great apartment for pets

We've stayed here twice with our dogs and are so thankful to have found a comfortable place in a nice neighborhood for traveling with pets! The only note I have is that the kitchen doesn't have a ton of supplies or a toaster, so if you're staying for longer than a day or two or if you cook a lot you end up doing dishes all the time.

It was exactly what we needed in a home away from home. We're already planning on staying here again next time we're in Chattanooga. The playground across the street was great for our 1 year old to stretch her legs too. Would recommend to a friend!

Great location and cozy stay

The property was in a great location for the sites we planned to visit, literally minutes away. We were aware that the property was pet friendly which is why we chose it, however I don’t feel there was adequate cleaning prior to our arrival as there was a significant amount of pet hair on the sofa (covers) and table. The rooms were nice size and beds comfortable. Overall not a bad stay!

Liked: Location
Overall, the duplex was fine. Clean in the critical places, and a convenient (if somewhat noisy) location. My biggest complaint is that the unit smells strongly of cigarette smoke. The weather was nice, so I opened all the windows for the afternoon while I hiked, and that was enough to not be unpleasant. The owner did not respond to messages via the app for over 24 hrs, but was responsive over text.

Response from VrboOwner on 3 Nov, 2025
Thanks for the review. Our home is not a smoking home so we aren't sure where the smell was coming from but have used an air cleaning system since your departure.
