About this property
Private Home & Yard ~ Hiking, Creek & River Nearby!
Enjoy a peaceful retreat at this private residence tucked into Suck Creek Canyon where swimming holes, hiking, biking, paddling, fishing, and climbing abound. This updated home is both a place of respite for those seeking time in nature and conveniently located to downtown Chattanooga. Within close walking distance are seasonal blue holes to take a dip in Suck Creek. The Cumberland Trail wanders close by and the Tennessee River is just a mile away!
Nestled into the mountainside of Prentice Cooper State Forest, this recently updated home offers everything you'll need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is well appointed for all your culinary needs. There are three bedrooms with two queen beds and a double, as well as a fold away single. There is plenty of room to roam with a sprawling yard, large deck, fire pit, and a gas grill. Additionally, we have lightning fast Wifi and large TV with a Fire Stick.
Just across the street is Suck Creek with seasonal blue holes and breathtaking boulder gardens. The house backs up to Prentice Cooper State Forest and its 26,000 acres of semi-protected land. The Cumberland Trail and the Tennessee River are just one mile away. And the climbing mecca, Tennessee Wall, is just down the road. So, there are plenty of outdoor attractions for everyone.
Despite the feel of being far from the hustle and bustle, we are located just 15 minutes from Downtown Chattanooga.
In addition to the carport, there are spaces for two additional vehicles. We share a driveway with our one and only neighbor, so cars must not block access to their property.
The house straddles the Eastern and Central time zones. Be aware that cell phones may alternate between the two when in this area

About the host
Hosted by Susanna Dodson
We love Chattanooga (born and raised), so we're always excited to share what this place has to offer. You can find us out exploring the mountains, creeks, rivers, and trails with our kids. We also live nearby and can be available if needed.
Why they chose this property
Boulder Garden is a unique house, recently updated for total comfort, that boarders extensive forest while staying super convenient to all Chattanooga has to offer. It's a choose-your-own-adventure property. Feel like a challenging hike along the Cumberland Trail followed by a cold dip in Suck Creek? Do it all from here! Or how about a day out exploring downtown Chattanooga followed by fireside relaxation? We've got you covered! There are so many options and I'm happy to share insight on local favorites.
