Perfect location for being close to lookout mountain and activities. It is by a busy road; this didn’t bother us.

This property was perfect for what we needed, it’s not a lot of space but they definitely make the most of it. The location was great, being between downtown Chattanooga and Ruby Falls/Lookout Mountain. Would stay here again

The room seems like newly renovated. Very clean . Small but enough room. It is right beside the hway so you will hear the hway noise beside that everything else is good. The location very near Ruby Falls. .the host is very responsive. Lots of fast food and convenient store around it.

This was an adorable little lodge right at the bottom of Lookout Mountain. The self check in was very nice. I did notice, though, my bed was not made when I arrived, making me wonder if I had somehow gotten into the wrong room. I think housekeeping just forgot to make my bed. Aside from that, I had an excellent stay!

The staff was very nice and promptly responded to a towel request. We stayed 5 days and needed more towels within no time they had us towels to last our visit. The only complaint I had would be the traffic. The motel perfect location to visit Ruby Falls and Lookout mountain. The are is safe and the scenery is pleasant.

Check in was super easy. The room is exactly as shown, unfortunately for myself, my floor was not swept or mopped. All of the surfaces were just sort of unkept. The road is very noisy and busy, but the a/c does help drown out most of it, and it’s not bad during normal sleep hours. It is very close to Ruby Falls, which was a plus!

Very small, ok for overnight, was very clean,location is close to sights. Traffic verry heavy and noisy all night. No back yard, all flooded and dingy and outdoor trash can had trash all around. If it wasn't as clean as it was, we would of checked out. Who ever does cleaning service, you should keep them.

It really gave that “vacation” vibe. We loved it! And they have cornhole out back!

Love this place! The room is cozy and has everything you need. We loved that it was conveniently located (be warned that there is a lot of road noise, but the a/c fan drowned that out mostly). Icing on the cake for us was the coffee supplies, big smart tv, and cornhole in the backyard! We had a great stay and will definitely return next time we are in town.

It is a cute little cabin on the side of the mountain, perfect for a couple or solo retreat. It's a great location just outside of downtown chattanooga, where you're close to the city but also out in the woods. Would definitely stay there again!

Our stay at the lodge number 13 was clean and cozy. Traffic was something to get used to near the lodge. But overall, our stay was nice.
