Relaxing Getaways to Chattanooga, Tennessee, in this Colorful Pet-Friendly Cabin

Just a beautiful 20-minute drive to downtown Chattanooga



Welcome to your cheerful log cabin tucked into the woods on top of Suck Creek Mountain. It’s the kind of place where mornings start slow with coffee in a rocking chair, and afternoons are made for hammock naps out on the deck.



Inside, you’ll find a bright, comfy space that feels like home, only quieter, cozier, and surrounded by nature. Step outside and you’re just a short hike from trails, swimming holes, and even a sweet little chicken coop just down the driveway.



Whether you’re planning big adventures in Prentice Cooper State Forest or just looking to unwind by the fire, this cabin makes it easy to breathe deep, slow down, and enjoy the magic of the mountain.



SPACE

Simple comforts. Mountain breeze. Front porch peace. 🐥🌲



This cabin is a charming modern log cabin nestled in the heart of the Neighborhood @ our Nature Retreat. Surrounded by forest and filled with light, the cabin offers that cozy, just-right feeling for travelers who want to slow down, settle in, and soak up a little mountain magic.



Start your day with coffee in a rocking chair, spend the afternoon lounging on the built-in hammock on the deck, and drift off to sleep with the sounds of crickets and creek water nearby. It’s all about nature, ease, and the joy of being together—whether with family, friends, or just your own good company.

NEIGHBORHOOD

This property is a dream-turned-reality created by the Sonner-Such family (John & Karen, Ken, and James & Bobbie). Together, we’re transforming an 82-acre mud-pit atop Suck Creek Mountain into an evolving sanctuary of living earth, eclecic creativity, and human connection.



We’re nestled in the rural Suck Creek Mountain community surrounded by nature’s best:

🌲 Prentice Cooper State Forest borders our southern end

💧 One mile of Suck Creek flows through our land to the east

🌊 The Tennessee River runs along our road at the base of the mountain



We’re doing our best to honor this powerful land with restoration, quirky charm, and a deep love for people and place.



TRANSIT

You will want a car - or at least a bicycle! It is a 10-12 minute car ride down the mountain to get groceries.
