Birthday Getaway

This was our second time staying here at the Sophie cabin. Both times it was clean and cozy. Highly recommend for a small trip or even a good vacation with your family! Looking forward to bringing our kiddos next time!

Great customer service

We arrived late at night and had issues using the code to open the door. A quick call to the number listed connected us to a property manager agent. Two minutes later we were inside relaxing. Appreciate the full time service. The house was cozy and clean. Thanks!

Sophie Cabin

We loved our stay at the Sophie Cabin. It was a beautiful cabin and very close to downtown but private enough away to feel away from the city. Highly recommend!

Nothing short of amazing!!!!!

It was the best time! Our first time in Chattanooga and we absolutely loved it! This tiny home was cute quiet and quaint! The property is adorable! The family that owns it did an amazing job! The lights come on at dusk and the feeling you get walking by all the tiny cabins is majestic! I have zero complaints! They even sell wood for the fire pits so you can joy the fire at night!

Perfect location and ideal space.

This tiny home was so much fun to stay in with my significant other, my 14 year old daughter, and 10 year old son. We roasted s’mores and explored a few of the nearby trails. Attractions and restaurants were all 5-15 mins away. We had a hiccup with some rowdy trespassers but management responded immediately and sent people to patrol the next night as well. Can’t say enough good things about how well this was managed. The cabin itself was well furnished and the checkout instructions were super easy to follow. Coming from the Gulf Coast where beach condo checkouts can be extensive with poorly stocked kitchens, this was an incredible surprise. They supplied ground coffee, filters, extra trash bags and even had a wine opener. Very basic tasks prior to checkout. We loved it so much we plan to check out their sister properties in other cities.

Cute little place

Overall a cute little place. Some refreshing is needed. The bathroom door doesn’t shut tight and often has a crack people can see in. Maybe off track. The floor has some warping and wear but the beds were comfy and the cabin was super cute

Great getaway

We stayed overnight for a trip to the local aquarium. We arrived and had a lovely time. The kids loved the hot tub and the choice of a bunk house or a loft. We loved the space was clean, had everything we needed and felt cozy and comfortable.

Great location, Nice Cabin

Overall we had a great stay. The cabin was cute and had pretty much everything we needed. It was clean as well. The hot tub was nice and clean too. Very nice fire pit and covered picnic area right next to our cabin. Did have a pest issue that was addressed right away but pest did make another appearance in the cabin a few days later. Management was very polite and responsive. Location was great, close to all the attractions. But the main road the cabins are on is very hilly so not ideal for walking, running or biking around the area. The walking trails on the property through the woods are nice but could definitely use a clean up.

Best Blue Ridge Getaway --Don't Hesitate!

An ideal cabin stay for family and friends! My good friend and I try to get together with our kids each summer and this was an amazing experience for our first stay in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We have kiddos ranging from 8 years to 14 years, who were wonderfully entertained and perfectly comfortable with the accomodations, along with our family dog. Great side porch is doggie friendly with its own gate to keep our family dog happy outdoors-but-nearby just outside the cabin--and with ample room to set up our XL kennel, yet keep the screen door ajar so he felt like he was right there with us in the evenings :) The river rocks were so much fun to scramble over, the swing and hammock plus a fire circle set up down on the waterfront gave everyone plenty to do and enjoy, and just watching the kayaks and paddle boarders floating by the property was so much fun! The cabin is very clean and professionally set up to accommodate guests. The kitchen had every needed item, there were plenty of towels and comfortable bedding, and the arcade game and foosball table were a bit hit with the kids. Location is close to nearby grocery stores, restaurants and attractions, so we had everything we needed as we went gold panning, touring Helen, and even popped over to the Babyland General HQ of the Cabbage Patch kids, which is just as you'd expect it to be in person. Thanks so much for a great weekend. It would be our pleasure to return to the same spot, this cabin is wonderful!

Great stay in a wonderful little cabin!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the cabin. It was just me and my wife but there was room for at least 4 more. Very spacious for a tiny home and perfect for our short getaway trip. The host was also gracious with a couple of date shifts we had to make due to childcare falling through. We really appreciated Timberroot being flexible with us. Overall wonderful stay and would highly recommend to others!

Sofie cabin would be perfect for kids!

The property is clean and easy to navigate, with some cool little trails that run throughout as well. The cabin was clean with all the amenities, and the hot tub was ready! Lots of cool places for little ones to sleep- just one large bed for adults. We definitely appreciated the care that clearly goes into this.

Weekend getaway with small kids

The tiny cabin was in a great location. The property was clean and they had all the necessities. The only negatives we encountered were a dirty hot tub and and some bug problems (I think mostly due to the heavy rains in the area). But overall, the loft space was great and the cabin met our needs for our short vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Timberroot Rustic Retreats

Host profile image
I have loved world travels entire life though as father of 8 kids, having 3 in the past 3 years, our movements have been more limited of late. I am an entrepreneur and business owner, lover of history, plants, nature, my faith, philosophy, and my family. We love Chattanooga for too many reasons to list, but also cherish variety and the beauty so many places in the world have to offer.

As hosts, my wife is home alot with our 3 Littles (and 5 not so Littles in the summer) during the day, and we live on the same property as our offering. So you will find us responsive and accommodating and eager to share the treasures of our town and learn the treasures of your own. We know the trails, many waterfalls, parks, restaurants, and attractions of Chattanooga quite well and are willing to be a resource for our guests, offering an intimate knowledge of the area.

As a traveler, on business I tend to work, read and rest if I can, and prefer to travel with associates or family when I can. As a vacationer, I am eager to share and celebrate the diversity of creation and humanity with my family and to give them an explorers heart, a warmth for difference, and a bit of zeal for travel too. I prefer National Parks to cities, but cities carry their own attraction. I prefer mountains to beaches, forests to fields, and local to corporate or suburban.

Why they chose this property

This was an old trailer park. We saw great potential for it, as a gem of a natural setting so incredibly close to the city. We offer a natural escape right on Lookout by the beautiful city of Chattanooga with unique and modern rustic comfort for the perfect mountain side stay.
