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!

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!

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!

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.

James and his girlfriend were very nice and courteous. We enjoyed our stay!

James was so kind to let us stay overnight to sleep for just a few hours to be at a meeting in Scottsboro the next morning. His house is very welcoming and the bed and pillows in the room where we stayed were amazing and so comfy. We will definitely be back.

I enjoyed my stay. I was here for business, so I needed my own private space where I could do work. This was a great place that met all my needs.

Great nights stay

I so enjoyed my stay at James' house. He accommodated my crazy schedule. Which I'm extremely thankful. The bed was so comfortable & cozy pillows. To be honest the best nights sleep I've every had away from home. I felt very "at Home". I can't wait til my next visit and have Porch therapy on the back porch.

Quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed our stay.

James met us upon our arrival to his home. He was very warm & engaging, although we were exhausted after driving 12-hours through the night. He even offered us dinner. His home is located on one of the busier roadways in the area however the road noise had little impact on our sleeping soundly. The room was nicely decorated and large in size. The remainder of his home looked like something out of 'House Beautiful'. He has done an amazing job of renovating most all rooms. The media room is envy-invoking and something we are considering for our own home. Well-done, James!

We loved our stay at James' house. The hospitality was grand and we loved the accommodations. It is our intent to return to sand mountain to stay there again. The theatre room was cool bed was nice and comfy. Very nice kitchen and wrapping deck. Short drive to great food. Or cook right in the house. We had a great time. Thanks

Recommended: My friend and I had a wonderful one night stay with Danny and Candy. Danny was so patient in helping us book when our plans were in flux until the last minute...since it was a Sunday night it worked out for us. Their place was easy to find and so close to Chattanooga it was shocking even after they had emphasized that. We were welcomed in and our first request, after passing muster with their sweet doggies, was to meet the horses. Danny obliged us with a detailed intro to each horse as we fed them carrots. Such beautiful animals! We then settled into their lux suite; beautiful and comfy. We took a lovely walk and then we ended up sharing their dinner table...we had brought our own dinner but they welcomed us to join them since we were all ready to eat at the same time. Thus we lucked into a taste of delicious squash from their garden and a piece of pumpkin pie so I would not hesitate to recommend adding dinner for those who love to eat fresh healthy food. Another walk after a great breakfast and then a warm send off the next day. The whole thing seemed longer even though we were only there about 20 hours by the clock! PS: I bought a jar of Candy's Healing Hands herbal salve for a wound on my (URL HIDDEN) quickly helped to close the wound and finally get it to start healing. However, staying with horse friends in Virginia 4-days later, they had a mare in distress with non-healing wounds (urine burns, long story!) So I gave the remainder of my tiny jar of Healing Hands to her cause. Hope it helps...nothing has worked yet...but her owner will need to reorder a pint jar's worth if it does...the burns cover the horse's entire inner haunches! Loved the salve but I felt the "horse farm to horse farm" kismet of the salve going to another cause was strangely meant to be. Love stuff like that! Sigh...

We were greeted by Danny on arrival and thoroughly enjoyed staying with him and Candy. Wonderful hosts, comfortable bed, spacious bedroom & bath and a bonus of sunroom off the bedroom. Delicious breakfast. Highly recommend staying here if you like to be off the beaten path and enjoy peace & quiet Easy to get to, just a few minutes off I 59.

Candy and Danny are exceptional hosts! From the moment my family of four arrived till we left, we were made to feel welcome. My children loved spending time with them and exploring their horse farm. Words cannot do them or their home justice!

The three days and nights spent at Candy & Danny's home were an incredible experience, enjoying a beautiful setting surrounded by nature and a quiet, peaceful and comfortable atmosphere. The hospitality was exceptionally warm and inviting. The newly renovated accommodations were comfortable, as well as beautifully designed and decorated. Please consider treating yourself to the delicious and healthy meals available, as well as the opportunity for horseback riding, hiking, and relaxing on the front porch. A definite airbnb host to revisit! One thing to be aware of is that the cell reception is very poor in this area (we use Verizon). For those who are trying to get away from it all, that might be a good thing, but those who need constant connection should be cautious. However, Trenton, which is just a short drive down the mountain, has fine reception if needed.

Fantastic experience! Candy and Danny were the perfect hosts. We stayed 3 nights and had a wonderful time. My husband and I traveled with our 2 young sons to see Chattanooga. Danny gave wonderful advice on what to visit, Candy delighted us with to-die-for muffins in the morning, and the rooms were comfortable, private and very clean. The bed, especially, was very large and comfortable! And the newly remodeled bathroom makes you feel like you are at a spa! The setting is serene and quiet, exactly what we wanted! Candy and Danny were super friendly as well; we wished we had more time to get to know them. I highly recommend staying here if you visit Chattanooga.

What a brilliant gem of a place! Arrived in the dark so was a huge treat to wake up and realise our room looked out onto beautiful woodlands. The photos really do not do this place justice. Enormously comfy bed, and a lovely clean and powerful shower. What should welcome us into the kitchen but homemade quiche straight out of the oven! Amazing hosts, thank you so much

The two days that we stayed with Danny and Candy, it was perfect. Our daughter is still dreaming about your horses. Danny was very welcoming when we arrived and we definitely would love to come back. It was awesome first time experience with airbnb.

Danny and Candy are wonderful hosts and I would recommend this listing to anyone seeking a quaint getaway near Chattanooga. The bedroom and bathroom were nice and clean, and they provided everything we needed. My friend who came even said that their bathroom felt like a spa! Danny was so accommodating and made us feel very welcome. Unfortunately we were unable to spend much time with Candy, but this couple is super friendly and we truly appreciated their kindness. I have travelled some with Airbnb, and this was one of the best experiences I have had! Everything met our expectations and more, and I would love to return to this listing!

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!

If you are looking for a great spot to relax in a beautiful setting in a cozy and cute cabin, this is your place. Austin has created a unique experience with his tiny cabin, while supplying you with everything you need to completely enjoy your time there. It is also located very close to the heart of Sewanee. I can't wait to go back!

Great spot.

The cabin was perfect! It was clean and just as described, and definitely secluded enough even though it was a 10-15 minute drive to Sewanee. I never actually met Austin, but he did leave a fruit basket on our second day there- which was a pleasant surprise to come back to! I would highly recommend staying here if you're considering it.

The Cedar Cabin was just as we expected. It was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the host made sure we had items we might need, such as a flashlight, coffee, a bowl of fruit. It is in a beautiful setting, and we appreciated the details of how the host created the little cabin. The handmade local quilts are a very nice touch!

We loved our stay in the cute tiny cabin! Thanks so much Austin!

Such a great place to stay! The cabin is located in the perfect spot. It is not too close to the main roads, but still easily accessible for traveling. The private woods around the cabin provide a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The cabin itself is beautiful, and its craftsmanship and design are fun and functional. My wife and I would definitely recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

We love staying at Austin's cabin. The place was very clean and welcoming. There was fresh fruit and coffee waiting for us. October is one of the most beautiful months in Sewanee. We enjoyed hiking, dining, and visiting with friends just a few miles away. Although it's a tiny house the amazing forest views make this place feel open and inviting.

Lovely cedar house, secluded yet close to Sewanee. Clean and comfortable. I look forward to my next stay! Heartily 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.

A very pleasant trip

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

Hali and Zack were amazing hosts! They made us feel so welcomed from allowing us to walk their property down to the creek to asking if there was anything else we might need during our stay. We had our boat with us and Zack even asked if we wanted to use his shop when we had to tweak a few things on the motor. It is a little bit off the beaten path of the major roads but thats what we liked about it. The rental has everything we could need and the bed was super comfortable. Beautiful and cozy rental! Thank you for a great stay!

Wonderful, peaceful, beautiful place! Came for a quick weekend trip and wished we could have stayed longer! Everything was as described and excellent communication from the hosts! We loved it and would definitely stay again!!

This is the perfect place to stay if you're looking for a beautiful, secluded, country get away. There is an amazing field and creek on the property that you have access to and our son was so super excited to feed the horse apples. My family has been looking for a vacation spot like this for a long time and we will definitely be going back!!!

We had a great time staying at Hali & Zack's place! It was very cute and cozy and very quiet. If you are looking for privacy, then you definitely get it here. We ran into Zack twice on the property as he was training for a triathlon and he was very welcoming and personable. We didn't have the pleasure of meeting Hali but we were in communication via text throughout the trip. She gave us a lot of recommendations for places to try while we were in town. The barn was awesome and we loved the decor. The pillows are to die for. There is a creek back behind the barn that you can swim/kayak in, we saw an otter swimming there! The Wi-Fi wasn't available during our stay but we were so busy we didn't really need it. Plus our cell service worked just fine out there when needed. Thanks again!

This was the perfect place to stay! Not only were Hali and Zach perfect hosts but the house was secluded and on a lot of land so it felt like we were secluded enough. It was really close to lookout mountain which was an awesome hiking place and had great scenery. The house was equally close to downtown Chattanooga which was awesome. The house is also new so everything was working perfectly and it was super clean. Me and my 4 friends had a blast and definitely plan on returning!

We, unfortunately, didn't get to meet Hali and Zack but did chat quite a bit. She was very responsive to my questions. The cabin is the perfect place for a couple's getaway. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and will definitely be back and recommend. The location is far enough out of town to be peaceful but still close enough to activities and state parks.

My boyfriend and I chose Hali's home to spend our one year anniversary, and I can most definitely say we will be coming back! It was absolutely gorgeous and just enough out of the way from main cities that it was perfect for outdoors people like us. It was within reasonable drive of everything. Waking up early to the views outside the cottage was my favorite part of our entire trip. Hali and Zack were incredibly personable and sweet people, and just seemed like our kind of people personality wise. We are already planning another trip to head back that way and will most certainly be staying in Hali's cottage again.

We absolutely loved staying at the loft. Hali and Zach made us feel very comfortable and at home. They made sure we had everything we needed for our stay and more. Our two younger boys wanted to swim so they allowed us to swim with them and their children in the creek in the back of the property. The loft itself was immaculate and far enough out of town to avoid traffic but near enough to do everything you want to do. The property is a beautiful parcel of land that you can watch the hang gliders from out of the Windows. We will definitely be back in the future

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!

This house is beautiful and well kept. It is secluded so there is no noisy from neighbors, would highly recommend it

Beautifully done home! It's very comfortable and it's in a beautiful wooded area. Cris is an excellent communicator. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this home!

We had a great visit to Oakleaf Cottage! The property was fun to explore and Cris and Dave were helpful and communicative. The driveway is a bit steep, so we were grateful Dave came to put down some salt before predicted snow. We cooked each night of our stay, so we were happy to find the double ovens and food processor! A grocery store is right down the road and we had a blast visiting the Tennessee Aquarium, which was a very easy 25 minute drive away. The time we spent around the fire in the front yard was the most memorable part of the trip!

Great views and great location. Very clean and nicely decorated.
