REVIEWS
"Best customer service I've ever experienced. This is the place to go for peace and relaxation, Beautiful surroundings, loved the inground hot tub and the chairs made for star gazing."- Brittany, Apr 2024
"Few rentals meet or surpass their booking site descriptions and photos--this place is one of those. Booked this as a surprise birthday getaway for my wife, and it was as close to perfection as possible. The coded gate and spacious, well-maintained grounds give you the feeling of being utterly secluded. The steps down off the cliff to the deck and house only add to the fantastic seclusion experience. Inside, the house is clean, peaceful, and welcoming. All the amenities you need are thought of and provided. Communication with the hosts is clear and friendly. We ventured over to Cloudland park for one of the best viewing hikes of my life, but mostly we did not want to leave the property because the view is just so awesome. This place is a must stay--we will be back." - J&K Mar 2024
"This is one of the most beautiful rentals we have ever been to. We went in November and it was invigorating to shower outside ( under plentiful instant hot water) and to hang out in the fabulous hot tub and stargaze! The grounds are expansive and very private. The view is stunning. This property has such a relaxing, peaceful vibe about it. We spent time shopping and eating in Chattanooga and hiking Lookout Mountain and exploring the area around it. This is a truly memorable property. We will definitely be back !" - Nicola, November 2023
