About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic 1915 2BR · Cozy · Central · Families

Welcome to walkable, middle-of-the-action Ridgedale!

We are properly zoned and permitted with the City of Chattanooga to operate as a Short-Term Rental - unlike most other listings in the city. It’s good karma to stay with us!

Relax in the neighborhood at our numerous parks and playgrounds, grab a beverage at a nearby cafe, visit animals at the zoo, or do some antique shopping at local favorites.

You will stay in an apartment at the rear of our house which has its own private entrance. Our house was built in the early 1900s and has lived many lives (once a boarding house, then halfway house, Make-A-Wish Foundation offices, and most recently a church!). We enjoyed renovating this house to both some old glory and new function. We lived here for almost three years. It has loads of period details and charm but comes with some drawbacks of an older home. The floors creak and the windows can be drafty. The house has central air conditioning and heat but shares a system with the other apartment. The living room has a window unit that can provide heat and AC. Please do not adjust the floor vents. Let us know if you need further adjustments to the air temperature, we can adjust it remotely.

Enjoy easy, off-street parking via the alley behind Willow House. There are two apartments within Willow House. Please be mindful of noise so as not to disturb guests in the other apartment during your stay.

Enjoy easy, off-street parking via the alley behind Willow House. Climb 3 steps to enter the rear stoop, where you'll find the guest door with a door lock keypad. Enter your unique code to enter into a large, fully-stocked kitchen.

Prepare delicious meals with the stainless steel appliances and ample counter space or enjoy takeout from multiple downtown options. The kitchen flows to the living space with cozy seating, desk space, and flat screen TV. Note that the only bathroom is on this level. Enjoy complimentary Public Goods shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion.

You will find two bedrooms upstairs after ~18 steps. To the right is a bedroom with queen bed and separate twin daybed. To the left is a single queen bedroom. Both rooms have large closets, windows with blinds and curtains, and window units that supply both air conditioning and heat. All mattresses are comfy memory foam and beds have Turkish fabric on the custom headboards.

The vestibule outside the bedrooms offers a full length mirror, extra linens, water carafe, and some often forgotten toiletry items. We aim to make your stay as comfortable as possible!

You will share the house with our family but have your own entrance and are welcome to enjoy as much privacy as you want. You do not have access to laundry in the basement but accommodations can be made for longer stays.

Willow House is 5 minutes from downtown and nearby I-24 and I-75. Off-street parking is available via the alley behind the house.

The rental was very clean on the interior. It is a great kitchen. Bed was soft and comfortable. The curb appeal is a D minus. Trash cans, weeds around the patio and picnic table, and frequent noise/sirens were bothersome. Being a single female, and finding out that the owners were not in residence as advertised, I felt less than safe in this neighborhood.

I admit I booked this place last min on a whim while I was at work. So I didn’t fully read the description and realize that this apartment was part of their home until I had already booked it. But let me say it was never an issue! Apartment felt private, quiet, and like we were staying in single unit. Saw Kurt once while parking the car for a brief minute and he was very polite. The added coffee and tea was definitely a plus and having everything we visited near by. Cute home, thanks for sharing it with us for my cousin's 50th birthday!

Cute renovation on an older home. The bathroom being downstairs with the bedrooms upstairs was a little tricky with young children but overall nice and well-stocked. The corner lot was unfortunately pretty loud with traffic (even with a sound machine) but thankfully the road traffic died down around midnight. Would stay again

We really enjoyed our stay here! The hosts were kind, easy to communicate with, and made sure we had what we needed. The house is very spacious—especially the kitchen, which was well stocked with everything we needed for meals. We also loved having both an upstairs and downstairs. It gave us space to unwind after the kids went to bed and to enjoy a quiet cup of coffee in the morning before they woke up.There are a few things future guests might want to know. There’s only one bathroom downstairs, which made nighttime trips a bit inconvenient. The home is pet-friendly, which is great, but you could tell—one of the blankets had some cat hair on it, and the couch had a noticeable smell that made it harder to use. We also didn’t realize before booking that it’s a shared house. The hosts stay on their side, and while they were respectful of our privacy, the thermostat is on their side as well. They were very responsive when we asked for temperature changes, but it would’ve been nice to have that control ourselves, especially late at night or early in the morning.The two upstairs bedrooms have window units that kept things cool once we figured them out, though they can cut in and out a bit. The location is convenient—close to downtown and the interstate—and there are a few great playgrounds and a coffee shop within walking distance. Just be aware that the house sits on a busy corner near a light, so traffic noise (including fire trucks) can be loud at times. The hosts thoughtful

Great for a quick trip!

Super cute place that is within 15 minutes of everything. The dog blankets, bowls and towels were a great touch. We knew there was only one bathroom but didn’t realize it was downstairs (bedrooms are upstairs). This was tough with kids when they had to go potty at night. Downstairs gets hot but the AC units in the bedrooms work great. Very spacious with a large kitchen. They gave us late checkout so we could keep our dogs crated while we went to the zoo, which was very nice! Overall a great experience!
