Poor communication

We enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean. We did experience a few hiccups and had a hard time communicating with the owner to get them taken care of. The coffee pot in the unit does not work.

My wife and myself need some decompression time. The little house was great. We had coffee on the back porch in the morning to ease into the day while watching the neighborhood come alive. Quiet, peaceful and enjoyable stay. We will be back.

We enjoyed our stay at this cute, clean, charming house. The kids loved the bunk beds & games. The kid plates/cups/bowls were a huge plus! Location was super convenient to all the things in Chattanooga. Neighborhood was nice & quiet, felt safe the entire trip. Would definitely stay here again! Thank you!

Perfect location

This home was the perfect little stay for our family in the historic St. Elmo district. We enjoyed the quiet neighborhood, the convenience of being so centrally located to all the local attractions and amenities, and the cleanliness of the house. We would definitely stay here again, next time we would bring our bikes!

Quiet neighborhood

We had a 2 night stay. The home is in a quiet neighborhood not far from the Incline Railway and restaurants. We had trouble with the TV because the previous guests apparently signed out of the owners subscription and signed in using their personal information. I reached out through VRBO which I had used to ask questions prior to our stay and did get a reply until the next day and then the owners had to come to the house and sign back in. So our plan to stay in and enjoy pizza and a movie the first night didn’t work out. The house was clean and the bed was comfortable.

St Elmo

The location was good - close to a park and great walking. The listing was not accurate: furniture in and out did not match the listing. The outside was rundown/unkempt and the inside included sticky floors, soiled furniture and towels, left over belongings (make up and clothes) from the previous individuals, etc. The manager was responsive about the lack of cleanliness and we were returned the cleaning fee. We did have to wait on some additional issues with the home locking. We also noticed two missing fire/smoke detectors in the home. The home/rental has potential.

Great Location

This house was perfect for our short stay in Chattanooga. The neighborhood location is amazing. We walked to the park every evening, my youngest absolutely loved the ninja course at the park. There was great food and ice cream near by, and I loved how close it was to rock city.

Great location, close to everything!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location was amazing, great walking area and a few blocks from a playground. The property was incredibly clean, water pressure great and comfy beds! My only feedback/recommendation would be to get more lamps for the living area - the lighting wasn't that great and the patio furniture was not as pictured. Disappointed in this, the patio furniture could be updated. Neither impacted our stay.

Just what we needed!

We absolutely loved this little pocket of heaven. Perfect sized house for three people. So clean and minutes away from St Elmo strip. After long days spent in downtown Chatt, walking, hiking and exploring, we looked forward to coming back to this oasis and recharging. I miss it already and we are already looking at future dates when we can return! The owners were very quick to respond and super sweet. All to say, you should stay here :)

Amazing location!

We had the pleasure of arriving on a rare beautiful and warm winter day after all the snow had melted. The whole neighborhood was out and going for walks and enjoying the sunshine. We sat on the front porch enjoying the day and people watching. The house was clean and exactly as described. Perfect for our family and we will definitely be staying here again!

Perfect Location for Families and Pets!

We loved our stay in St. Elmo. The house was very clean and perfect for our family of 3 and our dog. We enjoyed safe walks in the neighborhood, and swinging on the porch swing, and our daughter loved the neighborhood cats and petting them. We were right along the Ironman route, which was amazing to be able to walk up and see the bikers! We would definitely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Sherry and Francesco

Host profile image
My husband and I have been involved with the resurgence of our neighborhood over the past 15 years and are now eager to share it with new people. We love VRBO and are excited about creating new spaces to show off our neighborhood. We enjoy working with local artists and creating spaces for them to flourish, this is our passion. We have two rambunctious and adventurous children that keep us on our toes and feeling young!

Why they chose this property

Enjoy the neighborhood park, the abundant hiking trails that lead to waterfalls and majestic Tennessee views. St Elmo is teaming with locally owned and operated businesses. Our own neighborhood pub, Moccasin Bend Brewing Company, where you can meet the locals or take home a growler (you can also bring your dogs). Visit Mojo Burrito, delicious food in a hip environment, 1885 Restaurant for a more upscale dining experience, don't miss out on their incredible fresh water trout blackened or grilled, or St. Elmo's own Purple Daisy and dine on a BBQ sandwich. St. Elmo Deli will provide you with the perfect lunch on the run. Don't forget Mr.T's Pizza and hand scooped ice cream that has been in the neighborhood for over 20 years!!!! The choices are endless!

What makes this property unique

We can point you in the direction of almost anything that you would like to enjoy in Chattanooga. See seven states from Rock City, visit the nation's largest and deepest underground waterfall at Ruby Falls, take a short ride on the Incline Railway to ascend and descend Lookout Mt, where you have access to amazing views from the top of Lookout Mountain from Point Park, or visit Sunset Rock. We are a mere 5 miles from downtown Chattanooga. Enjoy the river front at Ross's landing on the banks of the Tennessee River, visit the Tennessee Aquarium, and walk right down Broad St and enjoy a Moon Pie! How would you like to see the Hunter Museum or take a walk across the nation's longest pedestrian bridge to Coolidge park in North Chattanooga? There are many locally owned businesses and also some familiar favorites. The list is endless!! (That's just getting to see Chattanooga as a tourist!)
