More than we expected.

Me and my three friends would definitely come back to these cabins. We had the best time here enjoying the pool and all the amenities inside. It was so fun exploring everything inside, and it was a perfect location for sight seeing. We highly recommend and will be back!

Cutest Cabin Ever

This was the best little cabin ever. The whole little area where there are other cabins as well. I ABSOLUTELY loved this area. I took pictures and showed my aunt and parents telling them they needed to come stay here. I will definitely be staying here again. I told my boyfriend i want a weekend away to this area and one of these cabins for him & I.

We love staying here!

This is our second stay, and our family absolutely loves staying in the River Cabin. The check in & out process is so easy! The cabin is conveniently located to all the attractions at Lookout Mountain, a short drive to downtown Chattanooga & Racoon Mountain. Grocery needs are just a 5 minute drive down the street. Highly recommend 10 out of 5 stars!!

Tiny house tryout

Family vacation to check out Chattanooga. The location was perfect. Loved the layout of the tiny house. And absolutely loved the pool/hot tub include with is one. A few suggestions: Secure the dishwasher positioning Have a few more dishes options (ie...plates, bowls, etc) Check air conditioner in bedroom....noted smell. Build platform to put pool cover nearest our porch...it half falls each time making it challenging to put back into place. Overall, great stay!!!!!

Great stay!

We had a great time relaxing in the mountains with the family! Someone turned the swim spa heat on so it was too hot for our daughter to swim, but I reached out and the owners sent maintenance out right away to fix it and it was perfect the rest of the time! They were so responsive and helpful, we will be back!

Love Chattanooga

This was our first in these cabins. Usually we stay downtown and venture around the city. This time I wanted to do something different and stay in the mountains. Everyone loved the cabin & swim spa! Still close enough to downtown to drive to and venture, but tucked away just enough to decompress. Kids suggested staying here on our next trek, and I agreed. Staff was quick and attentive. 5 star stay in a lowkey setting!

Cute but disappointed 😥

The place was cute neighbors on top if you on all sides & could hear EVERYONES conversations 😪 The only reason why we booked it was for the hot tub and the owner didn't notify us till that morning that the hot tub was not working and couldnt cancel 😪 We only spent one night but still had to pay for the 2 night even though we left to go stay somewhere else 😪

Decent but listing needs updates

*The hot tub is not private use!!* if you don’t individually click on each photo to see the caption you won’t see that the hot tub is shared with another cabin and the deck connects to another cabin. Cool if you’re traveling as a pair of couples or family, but not relaxing if you wanted some privacy or solitude. The cabin was clean and well maintained. Some train and traffic noise in the area, but it is in a little plot of woods by an urban area so that’s to be expected. Main issue was just the advertisement not making the shared deck and hot tub clear.

About the host

Hosted by Timberroot Rustic Retreats

Host profile image
I have loved world travels my entire life; though as father of 8 kids, 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, 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.
