The Coalmont is a 4 acre waterfront retreat on top of the South Cumberland Mountains of Tennessee, between Nashville and Chattanooga. This 460 sq ft "tiny" cabin sleeps up to 4. Amenities abound with boats, hot tub, fishing, zip line, lawn games, large decks for gathering, fire pit, and beautiful scenery. Perfect retreat for couples looking for a romantic getaway, families wanting to unplug and reconnect with quality time, or anyone looking for a quiet place to work remotely.
The space
Welcome to The Coalmont! Our family spent 2 years transforming an old fishing cabin that sat on a beautiful wooded, waterfront peninsula between Nashville and Chattanooga. It is our family's getaway retreat, and we love sharing it with others as well! We thoughtfully laid out every square inch of space, indoors and out, and spared no expense to make it a luxury stay for anyone who wants to disconnect from day-to-day life and reconnect with loved ones, OR spend quiet time alone. (ADDITIONAL waterfront tiny home on the other side of the property if you have a larger party and want to rent both together. Perfect for a double-date getaway!)
This 460 sq ft space was intentionally designed for our family of 4, including the loft space for our two sons. It is the perfect size for 2-4 people, with the queen bed in the bedroom and 2 twin floor mattresses in the loft (loft was designed for kids but can work for adults if you are flexible!).
From the expansive deck area (with dining table, sofa, and fire pit) you enter through the large glass doors into the main living space. You will find bar seating for 4, a fully stocked kitchen with tons of counter space, and living room with sofa and swivel chairs to enjoy the wood stove or game night around the coffee table. The hallway takes you to the full bathroom with walk-in shower and rain shower head, as well as the bedroom with queen bed and Tuft and Needle mattress. From the bedroom, you walk out onto the hot tub deck with our private, deluxe, 7-person, self-sanitizing, salt water, hydrotherapy spa. Wow, that's a mouthful! Enjoy dimmable lighting throughout the cabin, a coffee lover's dream setup in the kitchen (4 ways to brew your coffee!), high-speed (1 gig) internet for a "workcation" or laptop movie night, ample outdoor parking, extra toiletries in case you forgot anything, and spa-quality robes in the bedroom closet.
Outdoor amenities include large deck space for gathering, eating, or sitting around the quick-start pellet- burning fire pit; fully stocked lake for fishing, kayaks and pedal boat for exploring the private lake (we regularly have guests tell us that they feel like they are in a scene from The Notebook!); outdoor fireplace near dock for grilling; corn hole; horseshoes; and a zip line and playset for kids.
Whether you want to enjoy an intimate night indoors, sitting by the fire and playing board games, getting a spa-like massage in the hot tub, or relax by the water on the deck by the night fire under the stars, The Coalmont is here to provide the ultimate place to unwind and reconnect.

Guest access
The Coalmont consists of 4 acres, but The Cabin only consists of the 1.5 acres in the center: to the right of the driveway and to the left of the row of trees. A map will be provided prior to check in. This is the only part of the property that can be accessed during your stay. The Cove is another rental and is to the left of the driveway.
There are three parking spaces on site. A vehicle is required to navigate around Coalmont and surrounding areas. Most activities off of the property are at least a 10 minute drive, and ride-sharing is not available in the area.
Other things to note
*Inquire about our Romance Package, Photo Package, and Microewedding/Elopement Package!
*We are unable to accommodate early check-ins or late check-outs. Due to the coordination of multiple properties on site, along with the level of care and attention our cleaning crew provides, the majority of the time between guests is used to make sure everything is ready for your arrival.
*We encourage you to “unplug” at The Coalmont, so there is no TV, but if you wish to bring your laptop to work or stream a movie, we do have 1 gig high-speed fiber optics internet.
* This property is in a wooded, waterfront location, which means you are out in nature! We keep our cabin very clean (check our reviews), but you may see wildlife in the yard and the occasional outdoor insect making an indoor appearance. If that makes you squeamish, this is not the booking for you!
*We do not provide any fishing equipment, so if you plan to fish be sure to bring poles/bait, etc.
*Kayaks and pedal boat are provided. Motorized boats are not allowed in the water.
*Due to the remote location, most restaurants and attractions are at least 10-15 minutes away. Grocery stores are within 3 miles. Please plan meals accordingly :)
*Thunderstorms, snow storms, or traffic accidents make it possible that you may experience a power outage during your stay. Sometimes it can take several hours to restore power. We provide flashlights! However, we do not provide refunds in these circumstances, as we recommend guests to purchase travel insurance for weather related events, etc.
*View our Youtube channel after booking for "how-to" video demonstrations on checking in, operating hot tub, fire pit, wood stove, washer/dryer, and more.
*Date change requests must be submitted prior to 30 days before the reservation. Date change requests submitted within 30 days will be treated like a cancellation and the cancellation policy will apply.
