Magical Creature Caretaker Cabin

Embrace your inner wizard!!
Whether you're looking for a secluded getaway or a place to relax after sightseeing in nearby Chattanooga, Tennessee, this magical hut has everything you need.

The Space:
This cozy tiny home is under 290 square feet inside and styled with a modern take on our favorite magical groundskeeper's hut.

As a tiny home, the interior space is small, but well utilized. The bedroom and bathroom are in the back of the home. There is one queen sized bed perfect for up to two guests. The bathroom is next to the bedroom and has a small walk-in shower and toilet area. The kitchen and living area are located in the front of the home. The kitchen amenities include a small stove top, small fridge with freezer, microwave, and coffee maker. In the living area, enjoy the electric fireplace or smart TV where you are free to log into any streaming services you have. For your safety, please do not disturb any mandrakes or bowtruckles who share the living space.

The outdoor amenities abound with a large 175 square foot porch. The porch has an outdoor kitchen area with a grill with a pizza oven, two eye stove top and wet bar to concoct any magical potions. Additionally, the porch boasts an outdoor shower. Step off the porch to enjoy the fire pit area. At night, you may be able to hear some of the frogs that have retired from a famous wizarding school's Frog Choir.

Guest Access:
You will have the entire tiny home and outdoor spaces to yourself to enjoy. The entire property is approximately 3 acres within a fenced border and you are welcome to utilize any of this space during your stay. Feel free to take a morning walk through the field or enjoy the two small ponds and all the creatures that live there. There is no swimming so as to not disturb the grindylows in the top pond and the giant squid in the lower pond.

We live in the house to the left of the driveway as you enter the property and will be available if you need anything during your stay.

Other Things to Note:
If you are looking to site-see, we are located within 25 miles of sites such as the Tennessee Aquarium, Rock City, Ruby Falls, Chattanooga Zoo, and Creative Discovery Museum.

We are located approximately 20 miles from downtown Chattanooga where you'll find tons of amazing restaurants. Please note that you'll want to plan on eating out or utilizing the indoor or outdoor kitchen spaces during your stay as the Magical Creatures Caretaker Hut is not within the range of delivery locations.

Relaxing Getaway!!
Our stay was a weekend getaway for our 6th anniversary. The cabin was so cozy! It had everything we needed! We enjoyed a fire in the fire pit. We cooked in the indoor and outdoor kitchen. We used the grill AND pizza oven! The are several ponds on the property full of frogs and fish. There was food available to feed to fish. There were so many Harry Potter touches in the cabinet. The keys in the ceiling were perfect! The large quilt was super comfy. 10/10 recommend!

Very Pleased
My wife and I stayed for 5 nights, and were very pleased overall with the property and its design. Some things - better inside lighting, additional/different cooking utensils, hooks to hang clothes, etc. - could be improved, but overall a wonderful stay. (NOTE: The one truly concerning event was that the neighbors, on a couple of days, seemed to be fighting, and would have been VERY concerning had young children been around.) But thank you for a MOST enjoyable visit! Hopefully, we can book again sometime for another extended stay!

A Special Treat
My husband and I were on a road trip passing through Chattanooga. We decided to find a VRBO for the night. And what a special treat we found! It was so peaceful with a touch of adventure. Everything was super clean and comfortable. The photos don't do this cabin justice!

Fun themed getaway, thoughtful hosts!
If you’re looking for a fun Harry Potter themed getaway within driving distance of Chattanooga, this is it! Bonus points: nice outdoor space to enjoy, and the host provided a snack box and bottled water! This was unexpected and a nice touch for just a one night stay.

Such a peaceful,cozy,and magical place!!!
From pulling onto the property it’s such a peaceful and absolutely beautiful place! You can tell the owners take pride in maintaining it! From the inside out,all of the details that went into this place can’t go unnoticed! The cabin itself it’s so welcoming and cozy! All of the Harry Potter touches were a bonus! The owners were very easy to get ahold of and made sure our stay was as enjoyable as possible! There was so much to enjoy!! From the outdoor pizza oven,to the hammock,to the small pond(fish food was available to feed all of the tons of fish),to the outdoor fire pit there was just so much to do! Everything we needed was available as well! We can’t wait to come back!

This was the best place. We loved the nods to Harry Potter. The house and grounds are incredibly well kept. So many extras the homeowners added to make our stay easy. It was so quiet and peaceful. We WILL come again and have already shared the link to this home to several people. Well worth the stay!

Awesome Place AAA++++
What an absolute gem of a place. No better way we could have spent our Anniversary weekend! The attention to detail and the wonderful little surprises were fun to see. Wonderful Harry Potter theme inside and out. This is a perfect small place with the perfect amount of everything! Very clean and easy to get to. Everything is provided so not to worry. We really enjoyed the quiet property and the fire pit at night! We also had an Anniversary surprise basket which we didn’t expect! We can’t wait to book again in the future!! AAAA++++

Beautiful retreat
The pictures and description do not do justice to the beautiful little place that David and Tonya have ready for you. Needing a quick and close-to-home get-away, this place was as perfect for that as it was relaxing. Between the firepit (which we took every opportunity to enjoy) and the outdoor kitchen, this was a great change of pace from busy life. We were close enough to Chattanooga to pop in and enjoy the city then return to this little hideaway. One note to future travellers... The minifridge is modest at best. If you plan on doing a lot of cooking please plan on bringing a cooler for storage of cold items. We definitely made good use of the pizza oven to bake cinnamon rolls and, of course, pizza. The grill and cooktop outside is perfect for steaks and sides. This will definitely be on our short list of go-to retreats.

This place was awesome. My wife and I love Harry Potter and this stay was so cool. The attention to detail was amazing and the hosts thought of everything. Little bits of items relating to the movies was so cool. I recommend to any Harry Potter fans please check this out. And close to Chattanooga was also a plus. We rate it 5 stars.

Personal Retreat
This is something I do annually before returning to work. I select that is just has one bedroom, I prefer a quiet location to communion with God. This place checked all the boxes, I was able to explore the grounds (felt safe), sit out under the trees in the shade, and the A/C was available as well. I was greeted by the host with a wave & smile. I saw all sorts of nature, cows, rabbits, frogs, birds, and a rare sighting of “Fireflies” they are becoming extinct…. I have missed seeing them during summer evenings lately. The theme of the property had every little detail: sorting hat, flying keys. and potions. This is a great memory in my journey of life!

Amazing time of relaxation
This property is beautiful! The Harry Potter themed tiny cabin is so clever & perfectly done. So many little details just added to the decor. Everything was clean and in perfect working order. The little welcome snack baskets were a great touch! We loved the hammock, the cattle in the back field and the little critters, even the frogs. The outside area under the trees was so enjoyable. Totally recommend this property!!!
