Mountain retreat off the beaten path yet close to Chattanooga area attractions

Away from the hustle and bustle yet just a 15 minute drive to downtown Chattanooga, this is the perfect house for your getaway. Whether you are into hiking or cycling at Prentice Cooper State Forest, rock climbing Suck Creek Canyon or the Tennessee Wall, or simply want to enjoy a quiet getaway within driving distance of all that Chattanooga has to offer, this 3 bedroom home is a great location from which to branch out!

This mountain retreat property is located on scenic Suck Creek Mountain. Nestled between the great city of Chattanooga, TN and the beautiful Sequatchie Valley, the Mountain Rose offers a relaxing reprieve within a short drive of a multitude of activities, from outdoor adventures such as stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, biking, hiking, or rock climbing to downtown attractions such as the Tennessee Aquarium or Children’s Discovery Museum.

Located ½ mile to the entrance of Prentice Cooper State Forest - the multi-use regulated forest with 35 miles of hiking trails and scenic overlooks into the Tennessee River Gorge – nature at its best!

Head northwest to the Sequatchie Valley, where you can visit the Children’s Holocaust Memorial in the town of Whitwell or visit Top of the Rock Restaurant and Brewery and enjoy a beautiful view while dining. The Trial Training Center is 18.3 miles away.

A short 15-minute drive southeast will take you to Chattanooga, where you can enjoy all the downtown fun – the Tennessee Aquarium, Children’s Discovery Museum, High Point Climbing and Fitness, Walnut Street Walking Bridge, Bluff View Art District, Coolidge Park, many dining options, plus much more!

Beautiful and Peaceful Mountain Retreat
This house was beautiful inside and out and so very clean (you could eat off the floors!). Our family loved the house and the kids were sad when it was time to move on to our next destination. A bit of a drive from everything, which was clearly stated in the listing and the booking details, but a wonderful location! Would love to stay here again.

Great Choice!
My 11 year old granddaughter and I took our first ever trip by ourselves. She chose the Chattanooga area because she is interested in Civil War era history. We all looked and agreed on this VRBO, so I booked it and immediately, the hostess was responsive and welcoming. On our way there, I had some car trouble that left us feeling it was unsafe to drive. I contacted our hostess and she was super in every way! Wendy gave me wonderful recommendations for mechanics and towing, and even offered to pick up a grocery order an deliver it if needed. Since she was not renting it out again immediately, she also allowed a little extra time for us to check out, not knowing what the transportation options would be. She made a potentially bad situation so much less stressful, and expressed sincere concern for us. Top notch host, for sure! Also, the house was very clean and nicely outfitted. While we knew it was more space that the two of us really needed, having that full kitchen, the wifi, and the Roku TV certainly made an unplanned day in much more pleasant. We felt very much at home and safe right away. I'm saving her contact info so if I get to go back, I can stay there again. Couldn't have asked for anyone to be any nicer or more helpful. Again, thanks so much for everything, Wendy

Cute house
It was a cute little house that was perfect for our stay. It was clean and everything we needed for our stay was provided. It was not too far from the downtown area. But it is not close to stores or restaurants, which was okay for us. Checking in and out was easy. I'd recommend!

Great house in the perfect location!
The house is exactly what it looks like in the pictures. Perfect size for our family of 4 adults. We loved that it was in a quiet area, up the mountain a bit, but close enough to stores and restaurants. Chattanooga was only 20 minutes away and it was a 30-minute drive to the "tourists spots" on Lookout Mountain (Ruby Falls, Rock City, Incline Railway). Wendy made the check-in process so simple, and we didn't have any issues while we were there. We would definitely stay at this house again if we were back in the area.

Lovely home from home
The property was exactly as advertised and just what we needed for as a home base for a trip to visit family in the area. This is a comfortable and spotless home in a quiet neighbourhood. Everything we needed was there: a lot of thought and love has gone into this property. Wendy was pleasant and communicative in our virtual interactions but the house is so well laid-out and all the information and instructions provided so clear that there was not a lot of call to bother her. Would recommend for any family looking for a home away from home in this area.

Nice quiet stay on top of the mountain
We really enjoyed the house. It was close enough to everything but was still far enough to have peace and quiet with a beautiful drive up the mountain on both sides. Plenty of room for our family of 5. The property seems newly renovated and is well equipped for all you cooking and laundry needs. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect place for our rowing regatta retreat
Our daughter was competing in the Head of the Hooch regatta and we needed a place to house our family/cheering section. Wendy's place was perfect! It was only around 20 minutes from downtown Chattanooga, it was spotless, had comfy beds, a well appointed kitchen, and great wifi. It's on a large lot with woods out back and we enjoyed keeping toasty around the firepit while taking in the stars! If you need a home base while visiting Chattanooga, this is a great option.

Our host was so kind - she sent recommendations in advance, left us a hand written note + even provided starter logs and firewood for the fire pit which was absolutely our favorite thing about this place! We were able to enjoy football + had a very relaxing time!
