This was a clean environment. Family friendly with a playground. Train went through quietly and didn't hear it at night. The first night we stayed it stormed bad enough to knock down limbs and trees. The property managers was quick to react with the cleanup and it was all clear the same day. They was concerned about the well being of the visitors and check to make sure everyone was ok. I will definitely stay again.

We loved our cabin. It was very clean and met all our needs. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. Its tucked away nicely from the hustle and bustle of city life. Yes, there is an active train track close by but we were not phased by it at all. We will definitely book here again!

Everything was great. Easy access upon arrival. Very very clean. Love the front patio with the hot tub in the back. A/C works greats as I am a person that has hot flashes at night so I like it cold. This cabin is far enough away that the train is not that loud. Liked that you they offer hand soap in the kitchen and bath room. I was worried my husband was going to be to tall he is 6'5 but he could stand in the shower though he said he didnt have much head room. The kitchen had everything you need if you did want to go out and cook. The cabin was close to everything. Most definitey coming back.

The tiny house rental was a wonderful experience! Grounds were clean and had extras- play ground for kids, large gazebo common area with fireplace and furniture. Private Hot tub was perfect after a week of hiking. Front porch table/chairs and BBQ was nice touch. House was very clean. Washer/dryer, kitchen and bath were all in great working order. Beautiful! Would stay there again. Thank you!!

Staying in the Ernie cabin made our trip to Chattanooga so enjoyable & memorable. Everything was very clean & so convenient to downtown, grocery stores & attractions. The kids loved sleeping in the loft & we all enjoyed the jacuzzi. I really appreciated the little extras like basic spices, cooking spray, & coffee supplies in the kitchen. My only suggestions would be 1) Add hooks around the cabin for jackets & towels & 2) Have at least a centralized recycling option (we brought all our recyclable garbage back home w/us) Thanks so much for a great time!

This was surprisingly very nice! Smaller than the pictures make it out to be but it was quaint and the owners make up for that by providing you with almost everything you need that you might have forgotten on the trip. Really close commute into the city for activities and or groceries but also close enough to hiking trails and scenic activities!
