Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Historic Restoration, Central location, Pet & Family Friendly, No Pet Fee!

Welcome to Willow House in walkable, middle-of-the-action Ridgedale!

Looking for adventure? You'll find a myriad of hikes, climbing, water sports, and historic sites within a short drive! Forgot something? Walk to nearby Walgreens and Dollar General to grab essentials.

Enjoy easy, off-street parking via the alley behind Willow House. Climb 3 steps to enter through the guest door via smart keypad into a large, fully-stocked kitchen. Prepare delicious meals with the brand new, stainless steel appliances and ample counter space or enjoy takeout from multiple downtown options. The kitchen flows to the living space with cozy seating, desk space, and flat screen TV. Note that the only bathroom is on this level. Enjoy complimentary shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and lotion.

You will find two bedrooms upstairs after ~18 steps. To the right is a bedroom with queen bed and separate twin daybed. To the left is a single queen bedroom. Both rooms have large closets, windows with blinds and curtains, and window units that supply both air conditioning and heat. All mattresses are comfy memory foam and beds have Turkish fabric on the custom headboards.

The vestibule outside the bedrooms offers a full length mirror, extra linens, water carafe, and some often forgotten toiletry items. We aim to make your stay as comfortable as possible!

You will stay in an apartment at the rear of our house which has its own private entrance. You do not have access to laundry in the basement but accommodations can be made for longer stays.

Willow House is 5 minutes from downtown and nearby I-24 and I-75. Off-street parking is available via the alley behind the house.

Amazing Property- super pet friendly!

The place was absolutely lovely! So cozy and great for playing board games in the evening. Also incredibly dog proof, we brought our 3 month old lab and were worried about her getting into stuff, but it was so clean there was nothing for her to find! A wonderful place to stay!

Beautiful house with lots of hospitality

The house is very well kept and the owners did a great job communicating with us. No issues finding the home nor getting in. They go above & beyond to make sure their guests feel welcome. When we saw the dog treats, bowls, and blankets, we were a little sad we didn’t bring our dog! They had a fully stocked coffee station, soap, shampoo, lots of little extras you really appreciate when you’re traveling. Great find!

Exceptional Stay at Willow House - Highly Recommended!

Staying at Kurt and Melissa's Vrbo was an absolute delight! Their place was immaculately clean, extremely comfortable, and they were always available and helpful whenever I had questions. The location in Highland Park brought back wonderful memories of when I used to live there. It’s the ideal spot, perfectly situated between downtown, the mountains, and other attractions, while still offering a peaceful retreat away from the city's hustle and bustle. I will definitely be returning to the Willow House. Their pet-friendly approach, with dog blankets, poop bags, and treats, was fantastic. Additionally, the provided coffee and other amenities were thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home and worry-free. Kurt and Melissa genuinely care about their guests’ experience. Their stylish decor and accommodating nature made our stay memorable. I can't thank them enough for their exceptional hospitality.

Great for a quick trip!

Super cute place that is within 15 minutes of everything. The dog blankets, bowls and towels were a great touch. We knew there was only one bathroom but didn’t realize it was downstairs (bedrooms are upstairs). This was tough with kids when they had to go potty at night. Downstairs gets hot but the AC units in the bedrooms work great. Very spacious with a large kitchen. They gave us late checkout so we could keep our dogs crated while we went to the zoo, which was very nice! Overall a great experience!

The house was beautiful and clean. The hosts were attentive and checked in with us once or twice to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked and there was even a basket in the hall of often forgotten essential items. Very thoughtful! We would definitely stay here again.

Pleasant and very clean.

Property his located close to downtown. Plenty of room for us. My wife and I met our son and his two boys in Chattanooga for a couple days. Large kitchen and two bedrooms. We are use to having everything on one floor, as most properties where we are from are single story. The two bedrooms were upstairs and bathroom was on first floor. Not a big deal until getting up in the middle of the night. LOL Those of us who are older will understand. Over all it worked out great.

Great Value

This was a great place to stay on a budget. It had intentional touches and the hosts do a great job of anticipating guest needs at this property. The check-in, check-out process were both very easy and we experienced great communication throughout the process. The listing doesn't mention that the space is shared with the hosts (at least that I could tell) and the property has a recommendation for quiet hours because the hosts and their children are sleeping on the other side of the wall. I'm sure we kept them awake at least one night with how rowdy our kids were on check-in night. It is definitely pet-friendly, but it was also pretty evident that animals had been present as there was still a good bit of dog hair and some of the linens/towels still smelled like dogs as well. All very minor issues that did not affect the overall pleasant and convenient experience on a budget. Would definitely revisit and recommend!

Just what we needed

I somehow missed that this was a duplex but everything was fine. I was worried we would make too much noise but seems everything went ok. Spacious and clean it’s everything we needed. Cool old property. Owners were easy to work with, communicated well, and offer some amazing add ons like going to get groceries for you. I wish the property had more than one bathroom but again it worked for us during our stay. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks.
