We really enjoyed our stay! The cottage was clean and very well stocked with the basics to make our stay comfortable. It was quaint and well decorated, the views and outdoor seating areas are amazing, although we didn’t use them much due to the weather.
My only complaint is that the hot tub was not in good working condition. It was clean and hot but something was wrong with the jets and light. I communicated with the owner and they were very communicative and professional and I am satisfied with how they handled the situation. Due to how short our stay was (2nights), it was not fixed by the time we left. Hopefully it will be fixed for the next visitors.
All in all, we had fun and would book again if back in the area.

We had a wonderful stay over the long weekend here! It’s so cute inside and the surrounding property is gorgeous! My only regret is moot staying longer!

Gail and Mike are great hosts.
The house was very comfortable and the 4 state view is incredible.
The sunrise from the upstairs bedroom is the best we’ve seen so far.
The hot tub was the perfect temperature on chilly nights. The kitchen was well stocked
Can’t forget about the park pass that we utilized every day. Truly a relaxing time we had and can’t wait to go back.

Fabulous bluff view to the East. Multiple seating areas along the bluff and the deck. Jetted hot tub for up to 3. Outside also has neat decor accents and low voltage lighting. New propane grill. Kitchen has a full size fridge and freezer, new microwave and toaster oven and full capacity dishwasher. 46" TV with easy to function controls. High speed internet. Comfortable furniture and beds. Everything clean and neat as can be.

This house was one of the best we've ever rented. It felt like a real home. Clean, comfortable, charming. I love how it's decorated. You could move in tomorrow and would only need to bring clothes. The deck overlooks a valley that I'm sure is even more incredible in the fall.
The stairs are no joke if you have any medical issues but they are in excellent condition.
I will say, we were out until after dark on our last night and coming up the driveway was a little scary as it was very foggy/misty. Easily avoided. We will stay again if we're ever in the area.

My husband and I eloped in Cloudland Canyon and we stayed here in Buzzard's Roost. The view is absolutely phenomenal and the accomodations are great! Very cozy. Gail is so sweet and even left us a note congratulating us with some snacks! Highly recommend

The cabin was lovely and well kept. The view is everything you could ask for and changes throughout the day. It is not very accessible for people with mobility issues, but the owner is up front about that. I had knee surgery last fall so the 3 stacked boulders that make up the lowest section of stairs were a bit of a challenge. But I did it several times. And everything else was perfect. Loved having a washer and dryer. And the kitchen is more than fully stocked. Host is very responsive. If you are looking for a high end rustic, cozy, rural mountain get away that is still within reach of Chattanooga this is for you!

Only complaint I would have is that the showers/bath faucets trickle out. Really hard to take a bath without running water for over 45 minutes.
Otherwise, everything else was definitely 5 star. We really enjoyed our stay and felt safe while there. Would definitely stay again!

Buzzard’s Roost was the perfect place to celebrate our wedding anniversary. A cozy cottage in a beautiful natural setting. The kitchen was well equipped which was appreciated since there were very few restaurants nearby. We had a wonderful time. It was only a 20 mile scenic drive from Chattanooga.

This place is very nice. We loved it. Very secluded and private . ( Fall you'd see the neighbor)
We loved the outdoor space. Only thing I'd change is the number of nights we stayed lol. We didn't want to leave.
I'm going to be honest. Bring your pillow. But everything else perfect.

The views were the highlight. The location was very far from restaurants and downtown. Hot tub was not working and water pressure and temperatures seemed to be an issue. Would have called but didn’t see the phone number on the tiny card until check out. Won’t return.

We loved the property. It was homey and so comfortable! The views were amazing! Gail was a great host! She was very accommodating. We had to change our dates a few times and she was great to work with! She also provided some extras we were not expecting, a dozen fresh eggs from her chickens, treats for our dog and a pass to Cloudland Canyon! Our only problem were the 20+ steps going up to the house. We are 72 and 75, so tough getting our stuff up to the house. However, we had a great stay and highly recommend the property!

The pictures do not do this place justice! The house itself is so nicely designed and decorated (and very clean!), and the view is spectacular. I love that there are multiple places outside to enjoy the view and the peaceful surroundings. The wifi is very basic (no streaming), but the cell signal was strong (at least with AT&T), so we didnt even use wifi. The downstairs bedroom is pretty small, but the loft is great and has its own bathroom, which is nice. We were especially pleased to learn that there is a truly excellent restaurant (The Canyon Grill) just five minutes from the property, even though we were way out in the country in an otherwise very rural area. That was especially helpful our first night there when were tired from hiking at Cloudland Canyon State Park (also very close) and didn't feel like driving into Chattanooga. (If you go to The Canyon Grill, you should probably make reservations and bring your own wine. They dont serve alcohol, but you can bring in your own beer and wine). Gail was very helpful at every stage and responded quickly to questions. Thanks for letting us have a very relaxing getaway at your lovely home! Highly recommended!

Our host communicated was excellent before and during our stay. The view was amazing.
As for the house there are many small things that just needed upgrading.
The jacuzzi is out dated and did not stay on more than a few minutes at a time. No working lights.
All of the outside chairs and furniture were very uncomfortable. What view to have a let down on sitting in uncomfortable chairs that sit so low you can only look at the deck rails.
BBQ grill is by far the lowest end grill I've ever cooked on. Again a million dollar view and a $50 dollar BBQ to burn your steak on.
The actual living room has a small but comfortable couch. This living room would not support 4 people.
Pillows in the house were completely worn out and flat. I used three broke down pillows to make one not so good alternative.
Last day the toilets would not flush.
Water pressure in the shower was compatible to a light rain. Not good.
Not sure if it was communicated in the property description but 4 flights of stairs to get into the house from where you park was not expected. I might have missed it in the description but as a disable vet this alone would have probably made me look at another property.
Cute place. Beautiful views but lots of small lack of details made it a busted weekend.
We liked the area but would probably try a different place to stay. We are new at the Vrbo but looking at the price and location of our last stay we should shopped around.

This was our second time staying at the Buzzard’s Roost. The property is beautiful, and the atmosphere is very relaxing. The Buzzard’s Roost is my go to place for enjoying the outdoors or just seeking relaxation. Miss Gail has stocked the house with books, games, TV, and almost anything you would want or need. There is even a pass to a local state park.

Great hiking in Cloudland canyon available close by, and Shirley Miller Wildflower Trail (wheelchair accessible) was a pleasant treat!
