An amazing trip, at an amazing house!

My group and I had an amazing time here! We had friends and family fly in from all over to enjoy a weekend birthday getaway. Plenty of space for everyone. The location was beautiful. Jon was super helpful through the whole process and very friendly and informative about the surrounding area. Would definitely recommend it for any group!

Great stay at the LODGE!

Could not have been more happy with the property. It was perfect for our group of 12 people. We golfed at McLemore and it was an ideal location for that. 100% would stay again. Jon was a pleasure to work with.

A great place for families!

We had 19 people staying at the main lodge, the auxiliary house, and the carriage house. There was plenty of room for all of us. Great spaces to gather as a family for eating, chatting, etc. Beautiful views all around and the pool was great John (owner) was extremely attentive and communicative. Would return!

Serene Country Lodge

Beautiful lodge for a larger family to enjoy the scenery with a country setting. Plenty of room for 20 people to sleep and cook meals. Kids loved the swimming pool and adults loved the hot tub. The lodge was close enough to enjoy Rock City, Lookout Mountain, Ruby Falls and other attractions around Chattanooga Tennessee.

The place was fabulous. Very beautiful and great family setting. We enjoyed sunset dinners on the large porch and coffee in the mornings on rocking chairs. Yard was fun for toddlers to run around. Inside was beautiful wood cabin look. Minor complaints: auxiliary house was insanely dark outside and far down a steep hill. The loft room in main house was more ladder than stairs to access. Last, John was very nice. But the family wanted private time and to see him daily just popping up in the yard is not cool after all the money we spent. I feel outside cameras would be more appropriate to ensure no wild parties are going on. Most of our adults were in their 40’s, with some 50 and 60.

Great for Family Reunion

Had a great stay here Labor Day for a family reunion. Beautiful property; everyone, esp kids loved the pool and hot tub. Made several hikes to the really nice creek on the property. Also a short trip to a nearby waterfall, which was dry but still a scenic hike. Owner was very accessible and nice throughout the process.

Wonderful stay

We had an amazing time at this beautiful home. We had 20 family members staying and had more than enough room. The property is just as beautiful as the house. It was so calm and relaxing. Jon was such a gracious host. He checked in on us and made sure we were always taken care of. We will certainly be going back

Fantastic Lodge!

We were so impressed with this wonderful lodge and all the fun activities available. Our grandchildren loved being there and hated to leave. There is lots of room in the kitchen and den and the deck surrounding most of the lodge was super nice, allowing us to view the mountains, stars and moon. The pool and hot tub were big hits for the grandkids as well. Jon was especially nice and helpful in explaining all we needed to know. We highly recommend this excellent lodge!!!

Fun times at McLemore

We had our family there. Grandparents down to great grandchildren. It was a wonderful place to stay. We enjoyed the pool and the hot tub and the big yard. We played volleyball and through frisbee. Had a wonderful time. The host were exceptionally attentive. Great trip. Wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy many of the things we didn’t have time for

Super cozy and sleeps a ton!

House was decorated for Christmas and very nice. Location was beautiful but since it’s about 30 min away from most things we cooked in. Plenty of towels, tissue, cooking supplies, etc. The only thing that was a little confusing is we didn’t realize the whole description was two homes so not everyone had their own bathroom.

Amazing facility for Work, Bonding & Play!

Everything was just perfect. Flexibility in our arrival time, a complete check in tour of the house so we knew where all the lights switches were and how to work the sauna, plenty of beds and bedrooms, multiple spaces big enough for the whole group to be together and lots of nooks for small group break outs. All the kitchen gear needed to feed 16 easily, and most importantly for a work retreat - great working internet and huge TV with easy connection to the computer so we didn't miss a single slide of online training. Beds were comfy, water was hot, sunrise views and sounds relaxing and a nice break for the hustle and bustle. We took advantage of the walking trails and the waterfall hike close by for team building. I highly recommend this spot for anyone working on team training and I intend to return with the kids and grandkids for a back to nature vacation.

Amazing, Peaceful, Relaxing Place to stay

I can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was. John, the property manager was always available to answer questions and help with any issues we had. The house is amazing with 2 kitchens. The view from the front porch with plenty of Adirondack chairs to sit and watch the storm was such a bonus. The pool was clean and pleasantly refreshing. The outdoor fireplace was so beautiful that we had to use it at least once even though it was hot out. John went above and beyond at check out time when I had low air in one of my tires. He came with an air compressor for me. He also jump started my friend's car whose battery died. I highly recommend this place.

Couldnt be happier !

When I was looking for a place for our family and friends to come together I couldnt get too many commitments at first, I kept going back to this one! I made the risky decision to go ahead and book hoping everyone would be able to come .I am so happy I did! We filled every room and also used the auxiliary house, It is perfect !! There is so much room , plenty of bathrooms and so much to do . The home has everything you could need. The views are amazing . The hosts are beautiful people. I really cant say enough about this expierience ! We were all so blessed to have such a special place to be together for 3 days. We had ages 1 - 70 . The stairs are a little challenging for some of us seniors but I managed even with recent hip surgery . Thank you so much Jon .

We had a great time! The house was clean and everything there that we needed to have a great stay. Jon is very attentive and goes out of his way to ensure guests have a good time. There were plenty of games and activities to keep all ages busy. The only suggestion I would have is to have the volleyball net and horseshoes closer to the house. I would definitely visit again.
