Everything is as pictured! It’s such a great escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Is nestled in the trees but still next to the river. Definitely my type of getaway!
Was in the area visiting family and this was the perfect rental! It had everything we needed, beds slept comfortably, and it’s very clean! This will definitely be our go to rental when visiting in the future.
Very nice house, beautiful views, but located in the middle of a 20 mile rough mountain road
The house was very nice, clean and adequately stocked. Outdoor covered patio was great with beautiful views of the river and mountains. Two car parking was ok for vehicles but not able to handle a boat and trailer, which we had. Road was not maintained well enough to handle a boat. Travel time was 50 (13 miles) minutes going west and 35 going East (8 miles) and had many very narrow parts down to single lane. Hosts were good to communicate with and very responsive. I would have rated this rental as 5 if not for the roads. Would have been tolerable if not for the fact we had a boat and trailer.
Loved the house. There are a lot of pet situations and if you are sensitive to that I wouldn't go. Neighbor leaves her big dogs outside all night and all day and there are dogs just walking around. Getting out there is a trip to say the least and getting down to the water and then back up to the house is a work out to say the least.
We had a nice time staying at this VRBO. It was comfortable and a nice place to come home to after long days of activies in the Chattanooga area. Solo stove was a plus along with patio to sit and listen to the birds.
We enjoyed the location, the house, and surrounding areas. We went to visit one of our children at UTC. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, & the area was quiet. It was a bit of a drive to campus (we were aware & ok with that). We hiked, sat outside, played games & read. At first we were worried about the other reviews saying the neighbors didn’t want us there but we felt comfortable.
My husband and I were able to sneak away for 24 hours which never happens! Jeremy was so nice to accommodate and early check in and allow us extra time together. Kitchen was well stocked so I could make a nice dinner, it was quiet and peaceful. Back patio was great and the perfect place to sit and unwind.
There pothole filled road to get to & you must not use gps. Use the odometer to find the row of mailboxes just after the cemetery if coming from Suck Creek Rd. One of the mailboxes in the community has VRBO NOT WELCOME. GO AWAY written on it. One house has signs that says praying is the best way to meet God. Trespassing is the fastest. They're clearly not pleased to have the VRBO there & have blocked access to the river via above signage (if they haven't then I couldn't find the access).
TLDR: Great property but hard to get to with one angry neighbor. No lake access unless you want to risk getting shot.
This place is relaxing and truly nature oriented. I spent my days and evenings on the patio watching the river and the birds. There is a bird nest on the porch!
The check in process was super easy, and the home was really nice! It worked well for me, my husband and our 3 year old and 1 year old. Our gps did not take us there, but we were able to find it based on instructions provided! It was within 30 minutes of Chattanooga, and lots of hiking!!
This was a lovely home. Very peaceful and quiet. The location was a wee bit inconvenient for our particular plans but for people wanting to enjoy the river and the peacefulness it perfect. The hosts were responsive and helpful with tips and recommendations. And all of their tips were spot on.
Very cute house, clean, easy check in process, beautiful river view. Comfy beds! Hard to navigate with GPS. The owners are very easy to communicate with.
This is a very nice property. Unfortunately, it was just a layover on a long drive for us, but I can see how it would be a great homebase for a lot of outdoors activities in the Chattanooga area.
Had an enjoyable stay at this property. The kitchen was well equipped and the bedrooms were comfortable. The drive to the property is on a very twisty and narrow road, so stock up on everything you will want prior to arriving.
The hosts were so kind and helpful with any questions I had leading up to our stay. The property was beautiful and clean. The beds were so comfortable, it made it so nice to relax at the end of the day after a long drive. Check in and check out were very easy and we had no problems at all. Would definitely stay here again.

Disappointed pitstop
Very disappointed with this home. Needs a lot of cleaning (dead bugs, unkept lawn, dirty seating area on patio, and many others just to mention a few). Also, both ground level sliding glass doors were left unlocked, so anyone could have just walked in before my arrival....very unsafe practice. I won't be renting this home in the future and wouldn't recommend it.
