Newly Renovated Cabin Close to Downtown Chattanooga
Welcome to our newly renovated & custom-built log cabin at the foot of Elder Mountain. Only 7 minutes away from downtown Chattanooga and the fast-growing Northshore. Chattanooga was home to the Iron Man in 2017 and has become an annual event space & home to of many concerts goers, river tourers, & many intellectual foodies. Enjoy hiking, fishing, swimming and much more not only in downtown but on our property too! Nestled in the little town of Lookout Valley, the cabin has its own private pond (private from public but members of our family may be there at times) and cookout area (public). We have two charcoal grills/smokers at the Cabin that are private to you and your family. Our hot tub is open year around & is right off our wrap around deck with easy house to spa access. It is especially pretty at night with the deck string lights shining on the tub! For those of you who are bringing young children, we have a kids corner that is made to feel at home. This cabin has newly purchased patio and indoor furniture and unique custom furniture built by the owner and from wood milled off the property. We can sleep anywhere from 2 to 11 and there is a large newly renovated den downstairs for games or movies. Enjoy special time with family or friends in this one-of-a-kind log cabin. Don't forget to ask about the heartwarming story behind the cabin. PLEASE BE ADVISED THIS CABIN IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS. WE ARE SURROUNDED BY NATURE.

We loved hanging out at the house, on the porches, in the hot tub. Location was excellent because it was surprisingly close to everything while leaving us feeling as if we were in the country when at the cabin. Great stay!

Fantastic family vacation
This was the perfect place for our family, which included 6 adults, 5 children, and 2 dogs. Great location near several attractions. The kids loved the pond and the whole family appreciated the air conditioning during a heat wave. Kitchen was well stocked and host was responsive too!

Fabulous wedding get away
Perfect place to host a group of family and friends. Lots of space and very homey. Close to the city, but out far enough to feel you are in the mountains with city life far away. Loved the set up. Fishing pond was an added bonus. Would definitely book again if ever in Chattanooga again.

Fantastic Place
We can’t say enough about this cabin! Great place for family getaway! Hot tub, lake, fishing, canoe, and a very large fire pit! Conveniently located less than 10 minutes from downtown Chattanooga! The host were absolutely sensational! They went out of their way to accommodate our family. Will definitely stay there again if in the Chattanooga area. We highly recommend this home!

Great family get together
This cabin ticked all our boxes with beds for everyone, and a table that seats 10 for game time. Our family loves playing games together. It was a little cold for boating, but we enjoyed a walk around the pond. We appreciated the owner for having everything ready for a campfire with firewood and a starter so we could share ghosts stories with smores. Thanks!

Lovely Decorations
The Christmas decorations around the house were everyone's favorite part! We were not given enough toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, or towels for 10 people for 3 nights. The listing was accurate, and the communication from the owner was good regarding the broken gas heating (we had electric heaters as backup, which worked well!) We were, however, disappointed with the lack of locks on the doors into the house; all the chains were non-functional, the deadbolt was broken, and we did not feel as safe as we would have hoped. There were some cleanliness issues and a broken side table when we arrived, BUT the beds were comfortable, the hot tub was working, and the location was convenient (expect rough terrain getting in and out of the property), and we would happily stay here again!

Not as expected
The heater didn’t worked, but there were space heaters out. The place has an odor that cause my sinuses to act up. The place didn’t look clean. I have pictures to support this. The deck has a rotten place. Over all it was live able but not what we were hoping for after reading the description on the property. I wouldn’t go back to this cabin but understand why some people might. The people were nice enough when we reached out to them. Thanks

Family Celebration Stay
My sisters, daughter and I had a great time in Chattanooga. We were only at the cabin two nights so did not get to really “scope” out the area. The beds snd furniture were comfortable. Only bad things that happened were a mouse was in the kitchen, a toilet was clogged and coffee grounds were found in the coffee pot when we artived there.

Perfect family getaway
Property was perfect for our family. We had young adults, middle aged adults, young children and grandparents. There was plenty of of sleeping and common areas so that we could all be together or have our own private spaces. Kitchen was well equipped and host was very responsive. We enjoyed the fire pit and we were a short drive from all Chattanooga attractions. Thanks for sharing this nice getaway with us!

Chattanooga fun
We thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful cabin in the woods, just minutes from downtown. Beds and furniture very comfortable; plenty of space for game nights or outdoor frisbee! The hosts were super helpful in bringing a couple missing items (can’t help thieving guests 😡) and very informative on non touristy adventures! Would recommend this cabin in a heartbeat!

We couldn’t have enjoyed ourselves more! The cabin is spacious, yet cozy. The entire property is just simply relaxing and beautiful. The host was very responsive and helpful- we plan to come back next summer! It’s amazing how it’s tucked up in the woods, but a quick 10 minute drive to downtown.

We stayed in the cabin to visit with family in the area and loved how perfectly the size, bathroom number, and amenities fit our needs. It's really close to the city but far enough away to feel relaxing. It had everything we needed and was a huge space to host birthday and easter celebrations. Would definitely come back!

Great location and cabin
Lots of space the spread out after a day of exploring. There is a small creek that my kids absolutely loved and a pond very close to the property. 20 minutes or less to Chattanooga and even closer to lookout mountain. Could have spent two weeks here a won’t do the same day twice!
