The Elise Cabin was very nice. The loft was nice but not if you have tall kids with you, but we made it work. If you are a coffee drinker you may want to bring a bigger coffee maker. The overall cabin was clean and had pretty much everything you may need for your stay.

Great location, nice service

Stayed a week in this cabin. It is cozy, comfy (allows pets), good service(fast responses, friendly), great location (close to grocery and tourist places). Inside kitchen has many nice utensils ( just pick up a large pot if you usually use one),washer/dryer (host left some washer and dishwasher pads for us which was very nice), hot tube (working well), beds have comfy mattresses, bathroom had enough towels, shampoo, body wash and hand soap(great smell). Plan to come back 🙂 Keep on the good job.

Cute Cozy Place

We loved this place other than the hot tub would not work. I contacted the propery manager and it was so late by the time we got connected it was no help. We were only their for one night, late arrival, early checkout. The property manager did make it right with a refund without any hassle. I would totally go back to this place again if ever in the area.

Quick Getaway

First time staying in Chattanooga. Loved the tiny cabin, hot tub and sitting on the back patio surrounded by trees. I knew the road was close, so at times the cars were loud, but never a bother inside. Everything was close to us as well. Quick drive to Publix & Great attractions! Don't miss sunset deck or Ruby Falls. Breathtaking! Thank you host for easy check in & check out & a great place to recharge the batteries. :) Sandy

Gorgeous Cabin Minutes Away From All Attractions

Everything about my stay was perfect! Communication with the owner prior to the visit was delightful with all questions answered right away. The owner even let us add our dog last minute as we were unable to board him. The cabin was clean and beautiful with great views. There were even trails and places to walk around the cabin property. Downtown Chattanooga was about a 7-10 minute drive with it being the same distance to Ruby Falls and other attractions. There is both a front porch and a back porch with a ceiling fan on the front porch that made sitting outside pleasant even in 95 degree weather. We will certainly stay here again! Thank you so much to the owners!

We thought this cabin was so fun and cute. We all really enjoyed the hot tub in the back. It’s near a major road so it’s not super quiet but it wasn’t very loud either. You can hear a train near by which I thought was charming. There was a lot of rain and not too many rainy day activities to do with the kids. We went to Ruby falls and the Tennessee valley train which the kids loved. Down town is very quiet. We will be back to see the aquarium and the rock city. The lookout mountain has an entire town on the top which was interesting and we enjoyed driving around. The cabin was a great price to accommodate our family of five and we really appreciated being able to bring our dog. I would recommend and def stay there again when visiting Chattanooga

Small but worked for us !

The cabin was just what we needed for our weekend in Chattanooga for Ironman ! A little small but plenty of places to sleep. I would recommend an additional bathroom for more than 4 people . Otherwise , everything was great! Appreciated quick communication with the property owners.

Our stay here was short but so sweet. The cabin was exactly as advertised- clean and cozy with everything you need for a weekend getaway. Tucked away but also very close to downtown. Wish we could've stayed an extra day or two. Hope to come back soon!

Elise Cabin

Our stay here was fairly good. The cabins are in a decent location. Not too far away from everything. You do hear road noise and the train but it's not too bad. We were a bit disappointed by the lack of privacy with the hot tub. We also did not enjoy all the cockroaches that we found. We even had a couple crawling around the ceiling above our bed. Kind of ruins the romance when a cockroach falls in bed with you...
