The parking and drive to the correct parking is a bit crazy. The entire bottom of the chalet is a public part of the building to the community and not nicely kept. There was toilet paper all over and the toilets were gross. It is a very tight property.
The chalet is extremely close to a very active very loud train tracks. It didn’t bother our group but it was a bit of a shock as to just how close it is and loud it is.
The actual chalet was nicely decorated and the bunk platform bed is nicely made. However the other full size bed is in an unventilated closet with no airflow. The fans for the loft are heavily caked in dust. The living space is very tight and it just overall was not what I was expecting.
The pool was overrun by big fire ants and the pool lining was ripped and pulling up on the bottom. The hot tub was very nicely kept and private. We enjoyed this.
The property manager was kind and very responsive and quick to let us know we did not park in the right area.
There’s some nice easy trails you can walk and we enjoyed the views.
I overall liked the area but wouldn’t probably rent this chalet again for the expensive price to have such a small space.

It’s our second year and TR. We loved the tiny cabins so much last year that we came back to stay in the Chalet near the pool this year. The property was clean, so cleverly arranged and decorated. My daughter and her three friends loved the pool, the loft and the hidden bedroom. The bathroom is massive as well. Very nice chalet!

Very peaceful place right out of town within 10-15 minutes to the majority of the local attractions. The property is next to busy train tracks, but I didn’t notice them to much with a window unit running in our bedroom. The property is super nice with good roads leading into it. This particular property does involve stairs up to the second level that you have to tote your luggage up and down. Walmart delivery will deliver groceries to there if you subscribe to that service. The bed was worn out but it didn’t bother my back too much.

The Skyuka Chalet was in a great location. To park at the Chalet you need to drive down/up some steep hills, but it was doable. The host responded quickly to any messages and was friendly. The listing does mention to expect bugs, but we were expecting the occasional bug, we were not expecting so many. Upon arrival there were a lot of dead/alive stink bugs in window sills and on the floor/wall. We wished the dead stink bugs would have been vacuumed up before arrival. During our stay we also found a stink bug in my pillowcase and killed two roaches in the kitchen/dining room area. Trains do run frequently, but they did not bother our group. There is one bedroom, a loft area with a bunk bed (full bed on top, twin bed on bottom), and in the loft area there is a small door where the last bed is located in the wall.

Cute accommodations for a quick overnight girls trip. Ultra tiny bedroom (literally inside the wall) was a surprise, but a hit! Location is so incredibly close to town!

We loved the chalet and the aesthetics of it. It is NOT a true 2 bedroom though. The upstairs is an open loft area with no door. We have a 6 month old, 2 year old, and a 4 year old in tow with us. The bunk bed was a bit too high for me to feel comfortable with, but our 4 year old slept in it no problem. Also the POOL AREA is not completely fenced which is a huge hazard.
This is a HUGE hazard and should be addressed by the property owner ASAP. The playground is right next to the pool and children can easily wander into the pool area very quickly even with a parent nearby. Our 2 year old made her way into the pool area twice due to this and she cannot swim. We were nearby so nothing happened but the pool should be FULLY ENCLOSED with a fence for safety purposes.
Other than that we really enjoyed our stay. The property is very close to Ruby Falls, Discovery Museum, Aquarium, and Rock City.
The hot tub was great and the deck we enjoyed. The pool and pool deck are nice and our 4 year old loved getting in an 8 am swim.
Please enclose the POOL Area before an accident happens. 4 stars for pool area needing an enclosed fence.

Our family stayed at the Skyuka Chalet and the big May Family House. We also had several family members rent the small cabins during our stay. Everyone absolutely loved the property, amenities and location. The Chalet is perfect for a small family or a few friends. The pool is right at your doorstep and the community pool house under the Chalet is very convenient. We will definitely be back!

We came to Chattanooga for a family wedding and this was a great place to stay, very centrally located, easy to get to locations of interest, be aware of entrance to property should be approached during daylight hours, driveway up to the chalet is steep and curvy

We took a pit stop on the way to Florida to check out some Lookout games. The house was just perfect for us and the kids loved the bunk area and secret room. The pool was amazing and perfect for afternoon fun. The house was easy to get to and from the places downtown. We will definitely be back next summer!

This was second house rented for our extended family vacation on same property as another house. It worked out great for 3 kids and 2 adults. There was a small maintenance issue, and once reported it was fixed within 2 hours. Guest services was so nice and handled promptly. Pool area was very nice. We had everything we needed. We loved the property.

Beautiful and lively place to stay!
We stayed here with our four sons, ages 13, 10, 7 and 3. I always like to make the place we stay a big part of the trip. This place delivered! They absolutely LOVED the train coming by and would run to watch it pass. The pool was lots of fun and we had a hard time getting them to get out! The chalet is gorgeous. When we arrived our boys just kept saying how awesome it was. The hidey hole room was so neat! There are a lot of grounds crew members that come and go but they never bothered us. Our 10 year old has asked if we could stay there again! Definitely recommend!

Enjoyable place, but overpriced.
This is a nice property that’s close to several points of interest, but there are definitely a few drawbacks. There are two rail lines not 100 yards from the cabin; passing trains might not wake you, but you won’t be able to ignore the sound while you’re awake. You’ll also have neighbors, and the community gym/wash-room is literally the room underneath where you’ll be sleeping, so you may have less privacy than you would hope for. Honestly, it’s a nice place but for the cost of almost a month’s rent, I can’t say I would visit again. Solid 3/5 stay; the price is my biggest complaint.

Great stay overall!
Charming little chalet with beautiful, modern yet rustic touches. Our only complaints are that the loft area room was way too hot (even with a fan) for our kids to sleep there, so they ended up on the couch bed. Unfortunately the couch had not been cleaned out, nor underneath since at least the last stay. Also, it was super disappointing that the outdoor fireplace and grill were out of gas so we couldn’t make use of them. I’d like to go back and be able to make full use of the amenities.

Good place to stay
A great place to stay, loved the location and all of the extra stuff that comes with renting the place. Only down side is that you kinda had people just walking around the cabin like workers and other people so it is not 100 percent secluded but overall good place to stay

Chalet. Lookout mountain
Place is beautiful and very convenient. However, yes trains were disclosed (and really didn’t mind them). It was the road noise from 24 and the road to get to the back where we were told to park was a little rough. Overall a great trip.

Beautiful Chalet on Lookout Mountain
Perfect location with easy access, near grocery stores, Lookout Mountain attractions and hiking. Wonderful 360 degree views, plentiful amenities and comfortable sleeping accommodations. Our family really enjoyed our home away from home for a quick winter get away. Thank you for hosting us!

The chalet was exactly what we needed for a quick getaway! The property is in a great location, only 10 minutes away from the city, but you’re still secluded enough to enjoy the beautiful wooded area. The pool area is gorgeous! And the hot tub was perfect! We highly recommend!!

Nice Chalet
The location was great, near everything we wanted to do. We enjoyed the pool a few times in the afternoon. The chalet was really cute and everything we needed. Frank suggested a great swimming hole we really enjoyed. The only issue I had was the driveway in the back had an angle that was a little difficult to navigate for those of us not from mountain settings. Everything else was just what we needed. We had a great time.
