What a beautiful, peaceful place. They had everything we needed to feel comfortable, the rooms were spacious and well appointed, each room had its own unique, yet tasteful decor. The breakfast was wonderful, the hosts friendly and helpful. The property was also terrific, its right off the freeway, but feels like you are in the mountains (or the English Garden... I cannot decide)

What a lovely place to stay. Incredible food, wine and soft drinks available in the evenings, and even homemade cookies. We cannot say enough good things. The property is gorgeous and clean. The hosts are amazing. Wallace and Nancy take care of their guests. We felt like family by the time we left. Our favorite place to stay in Chattanooga.

St. Francis Cottage was a wonderful choice for our trip to Chattanooga. It was an exceptional value and I highly recommend this property. Each morning we ate delicious gourmet breakfasts prepared by our charming owner/innkeepers. Our room was beautiful & comfy & our stay was relaxing & enjoyable. The property is surrounded by beautiful gardens and has a large, covered, back porch & deck & hot tub too! The cottage is located about 15 minutes or less from all the attractions we visited in Chattanooga and the main roadways are easily accessed. We would totally stay at this property again.

Wallace and Nancy were amazing hosts. The breakfast was very good. All of the amenities were fantastic. The breakfast area has couches for relaxing in the evening. There are games and game tables, plus snacks and drinks are available any time. Our room was spacious and clean. They even have tooth brushes, tooth paste, and other essentials, in case you forgot yours. There is an onsite Tesla charger, so we were able to charge our car each night. This was one of our absolute best bed and breakfast experiences ever.
