Everything about this rental was simply fantastic! The home itself was lovely - the shower was amazing, the beds were super comfortable, and our host provided multiple perks including chocolates by our beds! Well stocked! Located in a beauty setting near the forest, with easy and close access to retail area. We are already talking about returning next year!

Very cozy home with lots of nice little touches. The house was clean and comfortable. Lots of nearby hiking and rock climbing make this a fabulous place to stay. We will definitely be back!

Nice basic lodging
Suited our purpose for "home base" from which to travel in the area. Fire pit is nice. Host is very responsive- had a brief issue with door lock, but it was quickly resolved. It was just my husband and I so we didn't need all the beds, but they were all beautifully outfitted. I could see that one bathroom for a larger party might be an issue. Washer/dryer is handy.

Loved Our Stay Here
We had a great stay at this home in Soddy-Daisy. Derek was a great host and communicated well throughout our stay. We really enjoyed the trail that’s about a half mile away from the property. It’s about 20 minutes from downtown Chattanooga.
