Rachel's Place - Signal Mountain
We loved Jerry & Debra’s place. We felt at home immediately! So cozy & homelike. Fresh loaf of banana bread was such a lovely & thoughtful gesture. I play piano & was thrilled to see one there! We had a great time hiking nearby & love this area. Hoping to return to visit again soon!

Get Away And Relax, In Private Chattanooga Home
Our home away from home! Our third stay in Amy’s fantastic house! Everything is so well kept, has everything you need including an amazing, heated pool, and is in a fantastic, gorgeous location very close to town, restaurants, coffee shops, supermarkets. We look forward to coming back to our TN abode our next time in Chattanooga! Thank you, Amy!

TN River Getaway~10 min to Downtown Chattanooga
We were only staying for a weekend and we checked in on Friday evening. We were able to enjoy a firepit by the river and make S'mores. We were a large group of nine, and accommodations were great! Plenty of room!. The teenagers enjoyed the foosball table. Saturday it rained hard all day and evening so we explored Chattanooga . We didn't get to really use the river since it rained (and there were tornado watchs and warnings all evening) but we still had a great time!

North Shore Bungalow @ Coolidge Park
Great location and very comfortable space! I did have a good laugh when I saw the stairs up to the house. The description clearly states that there are stairs but the home sits higher from the street than I expected. It wasn’t a big deal but definitely pay attention to that detail if anyone in your party has mobility issues. I would definitely stay here again.

Eden in the Clouds
We came to stay for my 50th birthday weekend. Stacy was very good at communicating everything before we checked in. The house was beautiful and had so many small items in there that we may need such as soap, detergent, and kitchen supplies. The view was absolutely stunning…and her recommendation to go see Lookout Mountain Sky Diving led to us going hang gliding-my favorite experience! I would definitely come back and stay again!

Ridgedale Roost, where the location is the bomb!
Tammy is an amazing host, and the property was perfect! Great location, walkable and convenient to my son’s school. This home had a great layout for a family, and it was appointed perfectly for a getaway. Highly recommend any of her homes.

Charming (*CLEAN*) North Chatt Home!
Although we only came for one night passing through, this place was the perfect fit! It’s in a beautiful neighborhood that felt safe. It’s an older, charming home that felt very homey. We will definitely return when we come to visit Chattanooga again to take advantage of all the nearby food and sightseeing!

Big Time Hill Cabin with an indoor pool, hot tub,
Amazing Stay we loved it out here. Thank you so much!
Dog friendly vacation rentals in Chattanooga

Chloe's Cabin at DogDazed - Dog-friendly Ellijay
This cabin is gorgeous and the property is wonderful for dogs (and humans). If your dog loves water and running around in the outdoors, this is the spot! The cabin is cozy and well-stocked with all the essentials, including spices in the cupboard. I can’t wait to come back to Chloe’s Cabin!

Heaven’s View Lodge, Pool, Pet Friendly
We came to Dunlap to celebrate a graduation and this home was in the perfect location. Close to town, family, and our event. It had plenty of room for our group and offered endless areas to hang out and play in during our stay. The hot tub was a huge hit and we even swam in the giant pool (despite expert cooler temp weather) with amazing views. The deck was enjoyed everyday. It really is a wonderful home!

Tasteful Townhouse
Really enjoyed our stay there !!

Cozy Log Cabin
Very clean!! For a cabin, nestled on the outskirts of the woods. It was very clean and bug free!

Dog/Family Friendly Mountain Gem near Attractions
Jenni’s place was wonderful and pet friendly. It had everything we needed and the space is very spacious. Checkin was extremely easy because of the very well detailed welcome message. As was checking out. I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone visiting Lookout Mountain area.

Star Cottage 4
My family was so fortunate to have found Star Cottage. It was perfect for us and felt just like home. It was close enough to many fun things, but not too close to feel crowded or make me nervous with three young children. If we ever make it back to Chattanooga, we know exactly where to stay!

Magical loft-style cabin, woods view
We had a great time. The place was relaxing and close to everything in Mentone. Very clean and cozy. Would recommend!

Nooga Blue Bungalow
We can’t say enough good things about Richard & his home @Nooga Blue. You will find an impeccable home—Welcoming, clean, fresh, everything you look at, sit on, sleep in, touch is intact and high-quality. You just know that much thought and intentionality was put into each detail. Thank you for the opportunity to live near our daughter for a week! I was personally fascinated by the neighborhood —by day, people jogging, walking, biking because it’s flat, calm, and easy to take walks. People are friendly. There’s a cool playground not far down the road. By night, the lights! It will feel like most everybody leaves at least one set of “party lights“ or one outdoor form of illumination at their home! Nooga Blue will make you want to live there! Thankful for kind, attentive hosts, and we give high recommends to anyone who wants a refreshing homebase—to be close enough to pop to town, to visit your kids up the road @Covenant College, or in our case, to help to pull off a family wedding!
Vacation rentals with jacuzzis in Chattanooga

Cozy Two Bedroom Cabin with Hot Tub in Waters Edge
We had a great stay! Place was comfortable, open and clean. Very private feeling, quiet and easily accessible. We stayed while attending a show at the caverns. Perfect distance. Will definitely stay again.

Beardsicle Bluff
We had a fantastic time here! Beautiful views, quiet, and comfy. This was a perfect place to spend our anniversary, and we will most likely return in the future!

Modern Hilltop Home: Jacuzzi, Theater Room, Views
This home was such a great place for my family and I! There were places for us to congregate to play games and watch movies and sports as a family, but also enough space for us to have our own private time when needed. There was nothing we needed in this home that wasn't readily available. We would definitely stay here again.

NO SUNDAY CHECK INS BLUE HERON TREEHOUSE, HOT TUB,
I felt very safe and at home during my stay, it was near downtown Chattanooga so there were many things to do, the owner made sure to respond to every question I had as soon as possible. It was very clean and we had a great view.

Mountain Side Cabin with Hot Tub and Fire Pit
It is a lovely cabin with a beautiful view. Perfect for rest and relaxation. The bed is very comfortable. The shower is very good. The tv has lots of programs, which came in handy for our stay as we did not leave the cabin. Going for a walk is not easy because of the steep road near the cabin, but it is a great place to stay. We enjoyed being there.

Cozy Tiny Home w/large deck, hot tub and firepit
We celebrated our 25th anniversary and this tiny home was absolutely the highlight! So many things to do around the community, hiking, waterfalls, kayaking, even walks over the lake in the beautiful sunset. What was most surprising is that the atmosphere of this little home was all we actually needed. Sitting in the hot tub, making yummy food in the beautiful kitchen and eating outside on the deck, playing cards by the fire pit, and one of my favorite things, drinking our coffee with the doors open to hear all the morning sounds. What a peaceful retreat! They literally thought of everything in this little vacation spot. Everything was so intentionally thought through to make our stay super special. I would absolutely return again!

Mtnside retreat: luxurious hot tub & stunning view
A very nice stay, that had everything we needed and more, with an amazing view.

Viewtiful Getaway -HotTub, Firepit, Dog-friendly!
This place has nice and peaceful views of the woods and Carter's Lake, I will recommend it to my friends.

Your guide to Chattanooga
All About Chattanooga
The city of Chattanooga sits on the bucolic banks of the Tennessee River, backed by the foothills of the Appalachian Mountain Range and Lookout Mountain. This is a city that is as much about nature as it is about urban life, with museums, science centers, cultural programming, and a forward-looking tech-friendly streak. The terrain in and around Chattanooga is loaded with fairytale scenery, babbling brooks, and cascading waterfalls. Add a dose of Southern charm, and the city is a major draw for vacationing families, groups of friends, and even business travelers here for a work-play stay. Chattanooga’s neighborhoods are a patchwork of green parks and classic Victorian and Tudor homes; it’s no wonder that it’s nicknamed the Scenic City.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Chattanooga
Fall is the most beautiful time of year in Chattanooga, when the foliage bursts into bright shades of crimson and orange and the temperature is pleasant for outdoor activities. In September, the average highs reach 82 degrees Fahrenheit, with a low of 56. Come November, the highs hover around a balmy 62 degrees, and by December the visitors empty out as the colder weather blows in. If you’re looking for a scene, summers are popular but hot, sometimes unbearably so. July and August are the hottest months, with an average high of 88 degrees, though temperatures often soar higher than that. A high UV Index of 10 in summer means you should double up on sunscreen and bring protective sunglasses.
Top things to do in Chattanooga
Tennessee River Gorge
The Tennessee River Gorge is a breathtaking 26-mile canyon carved into the Cumberland Plateau by the Tennessee River. There are plenty of ways to experience this natural wonder, from renting a boat or raft to swimming or fishing. But the local favorite remains hiking the trails of Tennessee River Gorge that meander through meadows and forests to overlooks.
Tennessee Aquarium
Explore another world at the renowned Tennessee Aquarium. Stingrays, sharks, crocodiles, fish, and other underwater creatures fill the colorful tanks. It’s not only fish and amphibians that live here, but butterflies, birds, and invertebrates. Educational opportunities abound through informational sessions and programming at the IMAX theater.
Lookout Mountain
One of the gems of Chattanooga is the 2,400-foot Lookout Mountain, a captivating ridgeline a few miles from town. Choose from among three individually ticketed points of interest that provide ample opportunities for a full day on the mountain: Incline Railway, one of the steepest funicular railways in the world, in operation since 1895; Ruby Falls, the county’s tallest public underground waterfall; and Rock City, a hiking exhibit of surreal rock formations, native plants, and views of seven states.
