Spring Break at The Nealis House

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and appreciated all of the thoughtful details in the house which made it feel like a home away from home. Our favorite part was how child-friendly the house was - our daughter was continuously entertained with the books, games, coloring supplies, and kitchen set. We will absolutely stay here again the next time we visit Chattanooga - highly recommend!

Our stay was nothing short of spectacular. My 3 year old had a blast playing with the kitchen toys and listening to music on vintage radio/record player. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and the neighborhood was very quiet and pleasant. We hope to stay there again in the future! Oh, and the front porch swing was a huge bonus!
