Wonderful Rental.
The cleanest, most equipped short term rental we have ever rented. Quiet neighborhood, excellent parking space. Kudos to whomever does the cleaning. Plenty of towels and washcloths. Would definitely stay again! Very comfortable beds. The only thing we missed having was ice trays. Beautiful property and house.

Lovely stay
I’m a sucker for a solid ‘historic’ home. It was perfect for our stay, beds were cozy, layout was perfect, amenities were on point! Would definitely book again and recommend to anyone staying in the Chattanooga area. Perfectly located close enough to restaurants and attractions, but also far enough away to enjoy the quiet.

Historic home in great location
Loved our stay in this beautiful old house. The beds were super comfy and the place was perfectly quiet and in a great location for seeing all the tourist sites in Chattanooga. Also close to some amazing restaurants! We had one small issue arise during our stay and the host responded quickly and everything was fixed by the time we were home from dinner.

Perfect spot
This was a great spot — so close to anything you’d want to do in Chattanooga, and had a nice neighborhood feel. Minus one dish that still had dried food on it, the place was very clean. This is the first vrbo in a long time where I was able to walk around barefoot and not get gross feet, which is so nice since we don’t wear shoes in our house. I appreciated the ample shelves to put items and stay organized. The kitchen was well appointed, beds were comfy and curtains were true blackout shades, which is excellent traveling with a young child who still naps. Great little spot in the heart of everything.

Amazing Home and Convenient UTC location
This home was even cuter than the pics reflected. The location was perfect for our visit to UTC (within walking distance). Many kitchen/bathroom supplies were available. The only negative was that since it is a very old house, you could hear every step the upstairs tenants made. It was quite loud until late evening/early in the morning hours. If this does not bother you then this place is perfect. This is not a reflection on the owners, but is something I wish I had seen in a review because it did cause us 2 nights of very poor sleep. Again, this may not bother someone else! Other than that the home is beautiful and immaculate!

Sweet Little Home
We enjoyed our two nights in this house. It was a good size for our family of four. The only negative things I can really say is that the location isn’t in the best part of town and the unit upstairs has been rented out to young people for the summer and they were quite loud late into the night. Parking was a small issue but the owners were easy to communicate with and prompt to my question about the issue. This property definitely enhanced our trip to Chattanooga.
