I was the first guest to have the pleasure of staying at Kathleen and Dennis' cabin! I had a friend join me also, as there were three bedrooms available. The neighborhood was pretty much in the middle of nowhere, so I had no cell reception while I was there (and I'm not complaining). Kathleen and Dennis were so very kind and had plenty of suggestions for things to do and places to go when we asked. I couldn't have asked for better hosts! The cabin itself was small and cozy. My bed was comfortable and there was plenty of room to hang my clothes in the closet. My friend said the bed in the back room was also comfortable! Overall, we had a wonderful stay. I couldn't complain about a thing!

Our host was outstanding and the cabin is perfect. Everything you could ever want and need was there.

This place is off the beaten path and no wifi service, in other words it's perfect. The host and hostess are gracious and helpful, couldn't ask for better folks. We would stay here again in a heartbeat

Lovely cabin in the country. Gracious hosts. Nice views!!

Kathleen and Dennis's place offered us the perfect weekend away! The hospitality was unbeatable - Kathleen welcomed us when we arrived, told us about the area, and even had dog bowls, a kennel and treats waiting for our pup. The house was cozy and quaint, just right for a weekend in the woods. We worked on puzzles and played board games (provided by Kathleen), took a day trip to Chattanooga and hiked at Foster Falls. THANK YOU Kathleen and Dennis for providing such a warm and welcoming weekend getaway.

This was the perfect get-away spot. Kathleen came over the moment I arrived to welcome us and Dennis came over the next day to make sure everything was OK. The cabin was clean. Well maintained. It's in a location where you cannot get cell reception, so it's the perfect place to escape from the world, yet it's close enough to restaurants and shopping. We would definitely recommend this to anyone trying to get away from it all for a few days.

The cabin was perfect to unplug and be disconnected from all electronic devices and to connect with nature and friends. The hospitality of Kathleen and Dennis was exceptional and they are gracious hosts. I enjoyed sitting on the front porch and listing to the sounds of nature, but in particular the babbling brook behind the cabin. The stay renewed me in body, mind, and spirit.

Kathleen and Dennis were great! The cabin was exactly what we were looking for and we had a great weekend away. I would recommend this cabin to anyone and look forward to visiting again!

beautiful views

Beautiful crafted cabin in a quiet location with a wonderful view. The cabin was well-stocked, the fire pit was ready to go, and the hot tub was amazing. Check-in and check-out was easy and Kenny communicated with us via text, which was convenient. The drive to Chattanooga was quick. We'll definitely be back!

We rented the house to stay in while we were at The National Cornbread Festival. Wanda was a wonderful hose and the home was so inviting and relaxing. The master bed is soon comfortable we didn't want to leave. This area is peaceful and quiet and it isn't too far from Chattanooga or many other areas. We are very thankful to have found this home away from home.

Absolutely loved this home. It was secluded yet close to many attractions. It had such a homey feeling. I could have stayed forever. Wanda and Terry are wonderful people. They were easy to contact and very helpful with information about the area. I definitely plan to return.

The stay was amazing, Wanda is a great host and the home was beautiful! It is very relaxing sitting on the back porch and while enjoying the nice breeze. The rooms were clean and well maintained, a good sized living room and a well stocked kitchen. I would definitely recommend staying at Wanda's!

Relaxing, woodsy retreat. Great for a family get away, and Wanda was one of the best hosts I've ever met!

Michael was quick to respond to our questions during the stay. We had a few minor issues but Michael was quick to resolve and help us. Thanks Michael for allowing us to stay in your home.

Beautiful location, kid-friendly, short ride to town and restaurants and excursions such as Ruby Falls

Very comfortable house in a secluded area near lake, fishing, scenic parks. Home was clean, comfortable, and roomy. Two lofts plus two bedrooms, plus a Florida room made sleeping arrangements easy. Living area had flat screen TV and DishNetwork programming. Ample couches, tables, etc for our group of 10. WiFi was spectacular and allowed for connectivity as needed through the week. Home sits against a hill. The property is beautiful and the Florida rooms backs up to the woods...nice and private. Wrap around porch has great view of the lake. There is great area for parking etc, so certainly a nice airbnb location. There is also video surveillance of the entry and parking area. One thing you should keep in mind when visiting is that this is a mountain location. General area is hilly and roads are similar. The McBrien road is steep, narrow, etc so don't he surprised by that when you arrive. During a 4 night stay, we only encountered another vehicle once. Overall, host was thoughtful and responsive. The location is a diamond and we could consider it it the future.

Michael was extremely easy to communicate with- questions/concerns quickly answered and addressed. This cabin was booked for my family who would be attending my stepdaughter's wedding in downtown Chattanooga. It was the perfect size and accommodated our group really well. We did bring an extra blow up mattress, which we used, as the pull out couch was not very comfortable to sleep on ( we did know ahead of time, however, that this might be the case). Our bed in the master was extremely comfortable and everyone else stated that the beds in the rest of the rooms were comfortable as well. It was extremely convenient and easy to get to all the sightseeing spots that we were interested in, such as Ruby Falls, Incline Railway, Raccoon Mountain, downtown Chattanooga, Rock City. The cabin was just as it was advertised and we would definitely go back- next time to relax a little bit more. I'm disappointed that our time there was so busy that I didn't get to enjoy more time on the front porch enjoying the scenery while reading a book!

What a wonderful get away! It was less than 2 hours for us to drive from Nashville, and we felt like we were so secluded. The dirt road was a bit tricky but also fun. The property is really nice, as well as the cabin. We had all the amenities we needed. Just make sure to bring enough food, because you won't want to leave. It's a very peaceful retreat. My wife and I just wanted to go unplug from the busy city and this was perfect. The sunset were spectacular, the view was breath taking, and the cabin had everything a quick get away would need. We will definitely go back. We are even thinking of taking a family holiday and renting 5 cabins at once so we can all have our own space but be close enough together, since the cabins are in a fairly tight group. Worth the drive and money! Spoke with Kenny and also a landscaper while we were there and both were super friendly and accommodating.

Kenny's cabin was fantastic. I stayed in the Elk Ridge cabin, which is the first cabin on the left, out of the five that he has built. While other reviews state that the cabins are close together, and this is somewhat true, the atmosphere and environment of the cabin negate any negative vibes this could create. The mountain-side cabins have a fantastic view, and I had a beautifully quiet two days -- I watched a doe and her fawns feed on the native foliage in the trees beneath the balcony. As an added bonus, you can see the hand-work that Kenny put into the cabin -- and there certainly wasn't any skimping on the hot water heater. Two thumbs up!

This was a beautiful cabin with a fantastic view. Kenny provided the wood we needed for the fireplace and the fire pit. The hot tub was very relaxing. Although I didn't get to meet Kenny, there was great communication through airbnb messages and the phone. I would love to stay with Kenny again and highly recommend his cabin!

This cabin and all the rest on the property are WOW for sure! It was the perfect size for the four of us and the view is amazing! We stayed in the Hoot Owl Cabin and I would highly recommend it - we will try to come back and stay there for a longer visit next time. It was clean, had games and movies to use during the stay, the hot tub was clean and hot, the drive in to Chattanooga was short and easy and the roads getting to the cabin were great. The owners also had plenty of firewood cut and ready to use and just sitting on the balcony was quiet and relaxing high atop the mountain. Lots of woods below and they even had feeders set out on a path to try to catch the wildlife coming through. There is an area for fishing down at the bottom of the mountain and a cave where the bats come out at dusk. If you are looking for relaxation just out of the city's reach, this is definitely the place to stay and was worth every penny!

My boyfriend stayed here looking for a quiet get-away to focus on work. He said it was exactly what he needed.

It was a great little cabin with a breath taking view.

Fantastic view and great experience!

We enjoyed staying at Kenny's cabin. Great location and great view. Very secluded location with a nice gated entry. All of the cabins are very well thought out. Each offers a unique setting. We stayed in the Elk Ridge cabin. Took about 30 mins to get to Chattanooga for a fun day trip. Kenny keeps loads of dry firewood in several locations for easy access. All around great stay and about 2 hours and 15 mins from the Birmingham area. Highly recommend!

Remote, serene, rustic. Exactly what we were looking for. It's like camping with AC and utilities. Was the perfect vacation. Host was great! Lives in the area so easy to ask questions/directions but respectful of your personal space/privacy. There is a small boat and kayaks for rent, that really made our vacation perfect. You can also jump right of the pier, perfect for swimming. A few things you need to know. Bring food for basically all meals, but it has to fit in a mini fridge, there was plenty of room for what we brought. The grocery store is not close by. There is a grill and all kitchen supplies needed. The listing says fits 4, in my opinion only 3. We brought our atv on a tailor for the nearby at park, there was plenty of parking space.

Margy was quick to get back to us. The view was spectacular. The house was very comfortable and perfect accommodations. Secluded and quite the retreat!

Great place to stay for a visit to Sewanee. No further away than Monteagle, but much more secluded and with a spectacular view. Directions were clear, communication was great, and the house is clean and well-appointed.

The cottage was beautiful and the view was stunning. We had a really relaxing weekend. I hope to come back. The cottage was cosy and romantic, I could not have asked for more.

Comfy, Cozy, Clean and and the view really is amazing. Could sit on that deck all day and just enjoy the view. Want a relaxing getaway? - This is it!

This cottage is absolutely wonderful! I think it actually looks way better in person than in the pictures (not that the pictures look bad, but the full charm and overall cleanliness of the cottage is hard to fully capture in the pictures). I rented the cottage for a weekend because my cousin was getting married at Sewanee: University of the South that weekend. My mother, husband and I stayed in the house and were all extremely happy and comfortable there. Also, the university was only a short drive away so that was a major bonus. I will admit though that I was a little nervous at first because we didn't arrive at the cottage until very late at night and it is in a SUPER remote area so driving up a mountain in the woods in the dark had us all saying "what have we gotten ourselves into?!?" but once we finally arrived at the house we were all relieved and extremely impressed with how lovely everything was. I'm not sure if I'll find myself heading back to that area of Tennessee ever again, but if I do I'll definitely check to see if this cottage is available to rent again because I absolutely loved it.

Great private location with a fantastic view from both porches. The house was well stocked with everything you might need. AT&T doesn't work well out here and we didn't find the internet until day 2, but it was nice to be off the grid.

Beautiful mountain hideaway. Cozy cabin, well-appointed. Margy was very congenial and easy to communicate with about our stay. We will definitely be back for more quiet interludes!

Margy was extremely helpful, by providing excellent directions and by timely and appropriate communication. It was a joy to stay on this property; it is so beautiful, and there is much wildlife and the forest to enjoy. The cabin is wonderfully clean, cozy and comfortable.

Beautiful location, great home, great hosts and communication!

Perfect location along the TN River Gorge! It was so quiet out on the lake. We enjoyed sitting on the dock for the weekend. We brought our boat and tied up to the dock. Also did some stand up paddle boarding and the conditions were perfect. The house was great for the long weekend that we stayed. The hike up from the dock will def get you in shape. Would recommend this house for anyone looking for a nice getaway!

Our host always answered us in a timely manner and provided all details that we needed- even leaving recommendations on local restaurants. The house was beautiful and we loved having rhe river right behind the house

We had a nice relaxing stay, The house is very comfortable. We had fun. Thanks

The property was amazing! Even better than the pictures and description. We met Hank outside the property so he could guide us to the house (we'd have never found it otherwise). What we arrived to was a gorgeous housed seated right on the Tennessee River with acres of gorgeous land to walk around and enjoy. We didn't even want to go in to town area was so amazing. We flew kites, hiked around the large lake area, made smores in the small fire pit and all around just had a great time. We visit Chattanooga to see family a couple times a year and this house will definitely be THE place to stay.

The home was located in a very peaceful and relaxing outer area of Chattanooga. It was a very beautiful home that offered gorgeous views of the Tennessee river and various mountains.

River Gardens is a special place. We loved having access to the "pond" (more of a lake) via canoes and fishing. It was wonderful to have such a property to roam and enjoy, with a lovely dog (Lucy) serving as the greeter and tour guide. The home was very nice. The view from the living room and patio area is spectacular. We had a family gathering there and everyone went away raving about how nice it was. We can see using this AirBNB again in the future.

We loved our stay. The view of the river is amazing! The grounds were fun to explore.

Could not have enjoyed our stay more! The house and view were beautiful. Our family had an amazing time together at the River Gardens Getaway!

Our whole family really loved staying at this property. We really felt like there was so much space in the house and around the property. Nice and secluded but much closer drive to the city than we expected. We took him up on some great suggestions for restaurants downtown as well and were not disappointed. The house was clean and the view was well worth it. We enjoyed eating outside on the porch as well. The kitchen was well stocked for eating in and making meals and there was plenty of space for all of us to be together or have our own space when needed as well. Lot's to do with boating and tennis and places to walk around. It was unanimous, we would all recommend staying here, even the 3 year old loved it with the trampoline!

I took a trip with seven friends to Chattanooga. Hank is a friendly, trustworthy, and reliable host - good communication before our stay and met us to show us around. The property is peaceful and secluded. We enjoyed breakfast and evening chats on the porch overlooking the river. The house was just as described - spacious and comfortable with a great open kitchen. Beds were comfortable and clean, plenty of towels, etc. Everything we needed. I highly recommend staying here - it was great experience!

This was exactly what we were looking for for our stay. The house had more than enough room, and was very clean and accommodating. It is quite the drive to find the home off of the main road (secluded in a 75 acre lot) but the Hank was very helpful to send detailed directions, so we had no problem. Although secluded, we felt very safe (it was all girls) and the view was absolutely beautiful to wake up to and enjoy during the day. Thank you!

Aaron's house is great! Just as advertised with plenty of space. We really enjoyed our stay

I had a big group of people with me for the whole weekend which is why we chose this house and it was perfect. Plenty of space for college age guys to hang out both inside around the living room and kitchen, enough places for all of us to sleep, as well as outside in the yard and on the back deck. Chattanooga and grocery stores weren't very far at all compared to the quiet, remote location of the house which was perfect for us! Highly recommend!

First off, this house is in an incredible area. The drive in was one of the prettiest roads I've ever driven, the backyard was large enough for a few different yard games, and the view of the river and mountain were spectacular. I highly recommend waking up early to watch the sunrise. The house was also very spacious and accommodating our entire group. We were all very pleased.

What a charming place in a picturesque setting. Waking up with a view of the river was especially nice. Aaron was a very helpful and gracious host. The only problem we had was a lack of time to do everything we wanted to do while in Chattanooga!

Great location for both relaxing or getting out on the water. Short drive to downtown and lookout mountain, yet far enough from downtown to get a great in the country feel. The driveway can be hard to find in the dark so try and arrive the first time while it is still light out.

Excent choice, we enjoyed so much and everything is as you see in pictures even better.Roy quite helpfull.we will come come back.

Ray has a pretty cool spot on the river outside of Chattanooga! We loved paddle boarding, the awesome peace of the river, and the easy going feel of the place. There are quite a few folks that share the outside space so be ready to mingle. The accommodations were adequate as I would describe the apartment as well used. The draw for our stay was the outside space and we enjoyed our 4 day stay.

Ray was very accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed, and making the check-in check-out process remarkably easy! He was very friendly and made us feel right at home. I also appreciate how he makes everything so kid-friendly.

Great condo , everyone was extremely friendly. Swimming in the river was a nice break . Everyone in our party from 5-45 had a great time . Very spacious condo , as a family of 5 we had more than enough space . Would stay there again anytime.

We loved this place! Ray was very accommodating and helpful. Extremely responsive. Location was perfect. A little out from downtown, but not too far. Quiet area. The place was nice and clean. The outside area was awesome with the paddle boards and kayaks. People were friendly and my dog was able to run around and enjoy himself as well. Would definitely come back again.

He greeted us when we arrived and offered water and bandaids if we needed them throughout the day.

The place was absolutely amazing. So many activities to take part in. The other tenants were really friendly, as well. The views from the property were amazing, and the cute little ducks that roam the property are absolutely adorable. I loved staying here and would love to go back again!
