Spring Break Vacation

The location was perfect for the mountain biking, hiking and waterfalls we wanted to do as well as some other area attractions - some which were just minutes away. Too bad a few were closed during our stay for maintenance or due to fire - Raccoon Mountain, Walnut Street Pedestrian Bridge and Inclined Railway. The house was good for what we needed while in the area including being reasonably priced. Just note the walls are thinner than I would have liked - can hear the neighbors walking around. The host/contact was quick to help us with a bed issue in the room our son was sleeping in. We will be back to the Chattanooga area again.

Cute and comfortable

The location of this property was so convenient to all the attractions we wanted (less than 10 minutes to Rock City and Ruby Falls) to see as well as being close to downtown. Added bonus was that it is dog friendly

Great stay for our fur babies

This was a great location near cool restaurants and easy highway access. It gave our cats a great place to decompress between long drives. If there was anyone in the adjoining property, we never heard them. Would definitely stay here again.

Great apartment for pets

We've stayed here twice with our dogs and are so thankful to have found a comfortable place in a nice neighborhood for traveling with pets! The only note I have is that the kitchen doesn't have a ton of supplies or a toaster, so if you're staying for longer than a day or two or if you cook a lot you end up doing dishes all the time.

Nice place for winter getaway.

Nice place, everything was clean and checkin was easy. Loved the park across the street and nearby hiking trails. There is however a lot of traffic on this road.

Duplex

The house was in decent condition but i did not realize it was a duplex and i would not rent it again because of that. The neighbors children were very loud and startled my teenager, made him think someone was in our house. Anstartled dog a lot

Great Place...but...

My brother and I (and my two dogs) enjoyed staying at this cute duplex across from a lovely park. It's just minutes from downtown and was very comfy. One minor complaint is that I found the door lock confusing, but a quick phone call fixed that. I typically don't complain about much, but perhaps I caught the host in a bad mood. The few times we communicated she was brusque, rude, and inflexible. No one ever checked to see if we were okay or if we needed anything. Others have indicated they found the host lovely, so maybe she just didn't like me. I also spoke the the host's daughter-in-law (about the door lock), who was quite pleasant. Not a deal breaker, but it wasn't how I wanted to start our weekend away.

Lewis review

Great location with more than enough room for 2 adults & small dog, clean rooms, and a comfortable bed. Would have liked a few more amenities/updates - firmer living room couch/chair, toaster in kitchen, and couldn't use laptop with wifi available (maybe that was my inaptitude).

Great location

Communication with the landlord was great. They accommodated our early check in request. The location was ideal for what we were doing in town with our two kids under 3. The park across the street is a bonus. We would stay here again. I did think the place could have been cleaned better. Specifically the bathroom. Our towels had hair in them. And the curtain could use a replacement. The mold needs to be cleaned out around the bathroom tiles etc. I’m sure the owner will address these issues.

Perfectly suited for our needs

It was exactly what we needed in a home away from home. We're already planning on staying here again next time we're in Chattanooga. The playground across the street was great for our 1 year old to stretch her legs too. Would recommend to a friend!

Cute duplex

We really liked the area of St. Elmo! This property is right across the street from a really nice playground, if you have young kiddos! My teenage daughter and I stayed here for a local travel softball tournament. The house was perfect for us. The beds were comfortable, but I thought the pillows were in need of replacing. We didn’t bring animals with us, but the house is set up for pets. All in all, it was a good little house and we would stay here again.

Great location and cozy stay

The property was in a great location for the sites we planned to visit, literally minutes away. We were aware that the property was pet friendly which is why we chose it, however I don’t feel there was adequate cleaning prior to our arrival as there was a significant amount of pet hair on the sofa (covers) and table. The rooms were nice size and beds comfortable. Overall not a bad stay!

Awesome Getaway

I had an absolute great stay, it felt like home. It was myself along with my 2yr old daughter. There were toddler games and puzzles under the TV stand as soon as we walked in. My daughter and I had a blast with that entertainment! This stay is closely located to everything (restaurants, incline mountain, aquarium, ruby falls, riverfront park, etc). The pictures are accurate and the place was very clean! We are planning a trip back and I will definitely book this getaway again.
