The outside area was gorgeous. The house was very comfy. Filtered water and coffee was very nice to have available. The property owner was so friendly and helpful. Overall, a very nice stay! We will definitely look to book there again on our next trip to Chattanooga!

Convenient location to Rock City and Lookout Mountain, which we loved! The host, Maria, is very friendly. The Carriage House is above the garage so a flight of stairs is involved to get there. Everything worked okay but the unit was a bit dated for the price.

This was a perfect spot for us to stay for the weekend! Great location and everything was so clean! Would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay so much! This is a perfect location to Rock City and Ruby Falls. You can walk to eat at various restaurants.

We had a great stay, the upstairs loft was a little stuffy as far as air selection so my boy ended up wanting to sleep downstairs but there were comfortable accommodations down there that made sleeping I. The living area nice.

Stayed for 4 days with my husband and 3 and 5.5 year old boys. Great location to the main attractions , Incline Railway, Ruby Falls & Rock City. Great park nearby. We enjoyed the mountains and hiking each day and my husband ran up the mountain and biked as well. The carriage house had all the necessities we needed and was perfect to come and go.
4.9
The host was concerned about our stay enough to reach out and ensure it was as it needed to be. That alone is more than most these days. The place was comfortable, quiet, and aesthetically pleasing. Definitely recommend for one to three people.

Had a great time staying at this cozy rental. The location in St Elmo gives you small town feel while being near all the big city amenities. Rental was well furnished and outfitted for everything you might need when away from home. Would definitely stay again.

I absolutely loved my stay in the carriage house! It was immaculately clean, nicely decorated and in a safe area. The property is well maintained and parking is easy. Maria, the host, was very communicative and kind; she went out of her way to ensure my guest and I had a great experience. I will definitely stay here again!

AMAZING property and host!
We had a GREAT time staying in this adorable home! It may seem small HOWEVER, my husband and I stayed in the bedroom and our 2 kids (age 12 and 8) absolutely loved having their own space in the loft. This area was close to EVERYTHING we wanted to see and do while in Chattanooga (Ruby falls, rock city, lookout mountain, raccoon mountain caverns, the incline, and downtown Chattanooga). I can not say enough about how clean, and well stocked this place was. Maria was an absolute treasure of a host and her place is just perfect. We will definitely be back to Chattanooga and I wouldn’t even bother looking for any other place to stay :)

Ok for a short stay for two people
This was fine for a night or so, for two people. More than two people is tough due to the loft being a tight space, with a low ceiling. Unfortunately, there was a strong urine odor when you walked into the house that we smelled each time we came in from being out which was gross. The washer and dryer (a stackable unit) do not work properly and should not be listed as amenities. Also, I normally would never book a place that does not have a dishwasher as this is not sanitary. We only dined out and carried in, using paper plates and plastic ware, so it wasn’t a problem but I would not do this again.
4.9
Comfy and cozy
Great location near all the great spots to visit and super close to get down to the river area. The carriage house was exactly as shown and very well decorated. The owner checked on us more than once via text which was extremely considerate. Highly recommend.

The owner was fantastic, we had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again in the future!

If there was a 6 star rating, I would have selected it. Perfect location in St Elmo. The carriage house was supplied with our basic necessities and the unit was clean, cozy, and very comfortable. Our host, Maria, made sure our arrival and check in went smoothly and she communicated with us to make sure we had everything we needed. If you like trails, there is one nearby, the Guild Trail on Lookout Mtn. Will definitely book again.

First let me say I would 100% stay here again. The ‘bad’: when we arrived it took a moment to figure out which apartment was ours because there’s two and the listing has pictures of the outside of both. We did figure it out though. There are stairs that lead up the apartment.
The good: everything else was good! The carriage house is obviously old and part of the history of the area. The apartment has been nicely renovated. There is everything there that you could need. The couches, the television, the dishes, the coffee maker, literally everything. Tons of towels and extra sheets/blankets. Immaculately decorated. Absolutely loved it.

Not happy
Mary the host text me to ask me at what time i was going to check in, wish I thought it was weird. I informed her i was going to be there around 8pm. Do to weather conditions my husband and i got there at 5:30pm to check in we struggle on opening the old lock box she has, so i called her. She came by the little house and was upset because we endup checking at 5:30pm when in the reservation it clearly says that the check in time is at 3:00pm. The vacuum was on the floor. The house was dirty and very dusty. She stay there for almos ten minutes to try to excuse herself she said she was cooking that then she had a phone call and bla bla bla. I would not stay here again. To Mary the host Mary reservation said check in time is at 3:00pm please have your place ready.

The carriage house looked like a place out of a decorator's magazine. It was cozy, comfortable, and convenient. The second queen in the loft allowed both of us to have room to spread out to sleep. The kitchen was equipped with all the basics so we made most of our own meals.

This was the perfect rental for a girls weekend. It’s was well-maintained and the owner was so friendly and easy to communicate with. Stocked with everything you might need for a get-away. Great location for both hiking and exploring Chattanooga. Close to so many great restaurants. The pictures showed 2 twin beds in the loft room but there was actually a queen bed there, which worked fine for us, just not what I expected. Overall an adorable, well-decorated and well-stocked spot for a stay in St. Elmo!

We loved staying on St. Elmo for our trip to Chattanooga. The location was perfect and the house had everything we needed. My 4 (almost 5) year old daughter enjoyed staying in the loft like Rapunzel. My 8-month-old slept in the pack n play in the bedroom with us. The property manager was quick to respond to questions and we couldn't have been happier with our stay!

Small, cozy, quiet 2nd floor cottage. Historic neighborhood near attractions. There is a flight of stairs that leads you up to a clean and tidy cottage. The loft is small, but perfect for 2 small kids or 1 adult. One bathroom, but it was fine for our family of 4. Recommend this place for a short getaway vacation! The host was welcoming and answered any questions.
