***This is 1 of 2 vacation rentals on the property. Bear Cottage is a basement unit and there is a separate vacation rental above called the Bird's Nest.

Each unit has its own designated parking area and private entrance. Both units are kept private and inaccessible from each other via two locked interior doors. The upstairs unit (The Bird's Nest) is equipped with its own dedicated outdoor grill, firepit and patio. Bird's Nest guests will not have access to the parking, outdoor grill, lawn, or the firepit designated to Bear Cottage. You will not have access to the hot tub upstairs!

The first bedroom has a queen bed with access to the shared bathroom along with a large walk-in closet equipped with a regular-sized baby crib. Across the hall, the second bedroom is a large room with 2 queen beds.

Kitchens and Outdoor Grill: The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you will need to make delicious meals – pots, pans, plate ware, bakeware, silverware, glassware, cooking utensils, coffee mugs, etc. We no not provide any cooking oils or spices - although previous guests may have left basic spices in the spice cupboard that we weed through regularly. We provide a medium roast coffee and filters for our guests! There is a charcoal grill available for guest use on the property. Please bring your own charcoal and clean the grill grate after each use. Thank you!

Very accommodating host and prompt communication. We loved the location and the house amenities were very appreciated. My wife and I were able to have our very own private date night for our anniversary without leaving the house.

Cute, Clean, Spacious

We were pleased with how clean and cute the space was! There really is a lot of room to move around and do your own thing. After long days of mountain biking we enjoyed coming back to crash. However, I took one star away because there isn’t much in the way of comfortable seating. There is a very small sofa for watching TV just off the kitchen. The game room has the large screen TV, but only metal bar stools and a straight back chair for seating, as well as a couple of small beanbags for the kids. Our son was happy with that but we were a little uncomfortable on that end. Also, as mentioned in the description, you can hear the upstairs renters very clearly. Make sure to bring some noise cancelling headphones or earplugs and hope a family of cloggers doesn’t come to stay upstairs. Overall though, we were happy with our stay.

Nice place!

The place is clean! But there is a game table that has something in it not sand but similar and is all over the floor.. we loved the location, being in the basement didn’t bother us.. we loved Chattanooga and when it says 18 mins from the aquarium that’s it.. I thought it being in the city would take longer but it didn’t.. it’s the perfect country house that’s not to far from the city 💚
