Perfect location!
We traveled here for our summer vacation with our two children (8 & 10). It was the perfect location for all the things - Cloudland Canyon, Rock City, Ruby Falls, Coker Car Museum, and the aquarium. The hosts were great, even giving us additional places to visit and suggestions for dining. We will definitely visit again!

What lovely hosts!
These hosts go way beyond expectations in helping their guests feel comfortable and cope with being away from home. They are so conveniently close to Covenant that staying there while visiting our daughter was so much less complicated than it could have been.

Located right on top of Lookout Mountain on the GA side. Also, equal distances from top locations like Rock City and Ruby Falls. Every aspect of our stay was wonderful and we even stayed an extra night.

Cozy cottage, convenient to college and Lookout Mountain highlights!
Our family really enjoyed our stay! The cottage was perfect for my husband and I in one bedroom, the two younger kids on the twin beds in a second bedroom, and our 11 and 13 year old on the living room pullout couch. It was easy to find, very convenient to the college, and mountain trails were walking distance. We were so close to Fairyland conveniences (Starbucks and the cafes) and we enjoyed visiting Point Park. A great trip, and the cottage’s location and our piece of mind with the ease of contacting the owners made the trip even better.

Extremely clean, well kept cottage, safe neighborhood, and convenient to all the attractions. The owners were extremely patient with potential reservation changes, and had great recommendations for the area--Cloudland Canyon and the Aleia restaurant in Chattanooga were awesome! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Quaint family cottage close to hiking
We rented the cottage for a weekend stopover to stretch our legs while driving south — it was exactly what we needed! We were hoping to spend less than a hotel would cost for our family of 6 and wanted to be out of the town and up in the fresh air. The owner was fantastic with communication and recommendations in the area — we really felt like her personal guest. We had a blast hiking Cloudland Canyon and then got take out from her son’s restaurant in Chattanooga. Would definitely stay again.
