About this lodge

PLEASE NOTE: THERE ARE 7 BEDROOMS AND 4.5 BATHROOMS IN THE LODGE! Also available are the auxillary house (3 bedrooms/2baths/sleeps 8) and the Barn house which sleeps 4, has 2.5 baths, and a non-kid game room. Both of the houses are 500 feet from the lodge at the bottom of the ridge with a driveway going to them. THE AUXILLARY AND BARN HOUSE HAVE ADDITIONAL FEES AND ARE NOT INCLUDED IN BOOKING PRICE. Please talk to Jon if you would like to add either or both houses for your group. We can sleep 32 people in beds with all 3 houses.
The lodge can sleep 20 people in beds and there is plenty of room for everyone. The 2 adjacent great rooms provide lots of options for tv watching, gaming, conversation, or just relaxing by the fireplace. The 2,200 sq. ft of open area on the ground floor is perfect for connecting with family and friends. Previously, in the summer season we only booked by the week from Saturday to Saturday BUT THIS SUMMER WE ARE OFFERING 3 OR 4 NIGHT STAYS! We can do a Saturday-Tuesday (3 nights) or Saturday-Wednesday (4 nights) or a Tuesday-Saturday (4 nights) or a Wednesday-Saturday (3 nights) PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU WOULD LIKE LESS THAN A WEEK WHEN YOU INQUIRE AND WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO ACCOMODATE YOUR NEEDS!
The 2 kitchens provide lots of options for the cooks and chefs as well. The larger kitchen has a gas oven, convection oven, and convection microwave oven as well as 2 full sinks,dishwasher,XL fridge, and lots of countertops for preparation. The smaller kitchen has an electric stove, XL fridge, dishwasher, full sink, washer/dryer, and more countertop areas. There are 2 full-size dining room tables and seating at the bar in the larger kitchen/dining area as well.
There are 3 bedrooms on the main floor and 1 full bath and a 1/2 bath as well. These rooms all have queen beds in them and give our guests who don't want to climb stairs the option of not having to while still being able to access the great rooms.
Upstairs there are 2 huge master bedrooms that each have king beds, sitting areas, bathrooms with jacuzzi tubs, and walkout balcony decks with gorgeous views. There is also the bunk room with 2 sets of bunk beds and also a loft area with a very comfy futon and Thomas the Tank Engine track set for the younger train enthusiasts. At the top is the tower bedroom which has incredible views in all directions and has a full bed in it.
The lodge has over 2,500 sq. ft. of decks and porches so no matter what time of day it is you can find some shade or sun to relax in a rocker or chair. The covered front porch is great if it's raining to listen to the rain on the metal roof or to watch the sun set over Lookout Mountain. The back screened in porch is awesome to enjoy birdwatching or listening to the sounds of nature. The enclosed porch has the foosball table and sauna and outdoor game equipment and the 3 balcony decks are great for a morning cup of coffee to start your day. The large side deck has incredible views year round as you can see to the end of the cove.
The back patio has the hot tub and leads to the 36 ft inground pool that is exclusively for your use. The pool is the place to be for all ages either wearing out the young ones or relaxing for the older ones. Also in the back is the fire pit and outdoor fireplace which provide endless hours of memories while relaxing and roasting marshmallows.
There are 3 acres of front yard space for kids to roam and play games as well as the woods to explore. Take a mile hike on the property that goes through the woods and across the lower pasture to Chickamauga Creek which is on the property. The creek is 30 feet wide and usually is only a few feet deep. The kids love to play in the creek and look for animals and their footprints. Also, searching for arrowheads is a popular endeavor around the creek as well.
The Lodge of McLemore's Cove is a custom built 6,000 square foot log home that has many unique features that will make your stay memorable. The 28 ft. cathedral ceilings and the massive 10 foot front doors are a glimpse into what is in store for our guests. Gorgeous mountain views in all directions and unheard of privacy make this a place that seems to have been untouched by time. The Lodge sits atop a ridge with Lookout Mountain 2 miles to the west and Pigeon Mountain 2 miles to the east and the end of the McLemore's Cove 5 miles to the south. The early risers can watch the sun peek over Pigeon Mountain and everyone can watch the beautiful sunsets over Lookout Mountain. And the best is yet to come as once the sun sets the spectacular night sky puts on a show that is breathtaking. If you love nature's beauty then you will be at home here and if you enjoy real log homes this is the place for you. If you want the big city and parking lots then you may have a change of heart after your visit. Whatever your preferences we will welcome you to a beautiful log home that is in a gorgeous setting.
The Lodge has been featured on the Bravo Channel, the Up Network, and Southern Lady Magazine. Come and see for yourself why this is the place for your next get together.

Beautiful place, just what we wantedOwner us a great host
8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
Amazing property with so much to do and was perfect for a bachelor party. Also had a day trip to Chattanooga that was a very easy drive. However, the host was incredibly involved in our trip. I had to do a 20 minute tour with him the moment I arrived. This tour could have EASILY been an Instructional printout like all reputable rentals use. He then he stopped by everyday. The first time he came it was to ask us to help move an arcade machine while we were playing yard games and then he hung around a bit moving stuff in and out of the basement. The second time was our last day where he was leaf blowing while we were about to go in the pool. Very very unnecessary and he should change all communication to digital. When I rent a property for several thousand I don’t want to even know what the host looks like.

Jon was an incredible host. Kind, communicative, eager to help. The location is absolutely beautiful; the property is well-maintained and fun to spend time on; the rooms are comfortable. I would absolutely recommend.
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
Our group of 18 had an incredible stay and cannot say enough good things about this home. The layout was perfect for us; we shared so many wonderful conversations across the various living areas—memories we will truly cherish for a lifetime.The amenities were a huge hit with everyone, and the views are simply breathtaking. For those looking to get some tee time in, the location was exceptionally convenient for golfing at McLemore, and we loved how easy it was to grab local brews nearby.The host was fantastic—friendly, thoughtful, and very attentive. They met us on-site to give us a warm introduction to the property and even checked in later to ensure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We highly recommend this spot for any large group!
