Kathy's Kottage. Bungalow on the side of Missionary Ridge, Furry Friends Welcome

This house build in 2017, one story,has all the amenities! There is a 2 dog limit. My insurance will not allow pit bulls, chows, Rottweilers or dobermans, or any of these mixed breeds. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms with granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances. It has a laundry room. The hall bath has a tub/shower combo. Tile floors throughout. A romantic fireplace is in the living room. Smoking is allowed on the huge front porch, where you can relax and let your worries float away! Behind the house there is a fire pit, too. The Battle of Missionary Ridge was fought on these grounds. I have found bullets, cannon balls, and shot while digging in the flower beds. I live across the street and the garden is located behind the "eyeball" wall. It is on old 3 tiered garden with 2 ponds. Sit on the bench and listen to the Mermaid fountain splash as the goldfish swim leisurely about. The birds will help you leave your troubles behind or swing and just remember times gone by. You will enjoy fabulous views of downtown and watch the sunset behind Lookout Mountain. There is a 2 dog limit with a FENCED IN BACK YARD. There are 2 other short term rentals on the same block, Gray Gables and Ridgedale Roost, if you need multiple houses for big events. Come and see the flowering bulbs in the spring! I can not offer a military discount.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace. There's a private balcony or patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
Take in the views from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

We have stayed in Tammy‘s properties several times. As always the house was very clean and ready for us when we got there. The check-in process is very easy. Tammy responds to messages very quickly. The property is pet friendly. It’s an excellent location if you were going to anything at Mccallie It’s easy to get downtown also. I highly recommend that you check out her gardens when you’re there. It’s a great place to watch a sunset.

If I could have given more than 5 stars I would have. To start, anything you could possibly need is there for entertainment, for babies/children, & even some stuff for our fur babies. There is plenty of space and a welcoming comfortable cozy vibe while also being clean with so many towels and pillows. The real prize was the gardens the owner has obviously spent years of hard work and love cultivating it into a wonderful surprise with stunning views. If you love nature and art this is the place for you. If you like charming and cozy this is your place too. Can’t recommend enough!!!

It is a pretty spacious home, conveniently located near all the places we wanted to visit. There was plenty of room for all six of us to roam through the house freely. There was a discrepancy with price….the VRBO site says no hidden fees, but then added them to the cost once we booked. We went ahead and kept the booking because of the proximity to everything. Host has a playground for the kiddos and a nice garden to view, as well as several books to read and games to play.

The home appeared newly renovated and was very well done. It was perfect for our needs, clean, well appointed, and was very close to all of the activities we wanted to do while there. Communication was excellent and was very clear and timely. We hope to get back to Chattanooga and will definitely look to stay again.

Great rental in a good location. Everything was clean and ready for us when we got there and the communication with the host made checking in and out a breeze. Super close to downtown and close but not too close to the freeway which made getting out of the city super quick.

Tammy was a fantastic host! She’s lives across the street from the VRBO, so she stopped by to introduce herself and encourage us to reach out if we needed anything. The house was perfect for us. She had provided everything we could possibly need for our stay. There were lots of toys for the kids and an assortment of games and puzzles. Also she provided a list of things to do in Chattanooga and recommended some places to eat. The house was very clean and beautifully decorated for Christmas. The beds were comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. We will definitely stay again!

Kathy’s Kottage was exactly what we needed for our 4-day family visit to Chattanooga! The house was so homey and cozy and you could tell a lot of effort was put into decorating and adding nice little touches. The house was a perfect home base for our outings to the Aquarium, Coolidge Park, Duckboats, Rock City, Ruby Falls, and nearby restaurants.Just an FYI for others that the house is close to the highway so when outside on the porch you’ll hear the passing traffic. And on occasion from inside you can hear 18-wheelers downshifting. This didn’t bother us at all and didn’t impact our visit but just wanted to include it so others are aware.

So cute! So clean! So comfortable! Everything anyone would need was provided, from the youngest traveler to our four legged family member. The perfect place for the cousins to play and enjoy each other during our Chattanooga visit. A cozy place for the adults to unwind also. Being tourists can be stressful, but there was none of that once we got back to our cottage.

Great location and amenities!

This was perfect for our family. Tammy the host thought of everything. She has toys for kids of all ages. No need to pack up so much for a baby just ask her she provides so much. The homes she has are beautifully decorated. Very clean. It’s like your home away from home. She has a playground across the street for kids and other activities. She loves her flowers and the yards are beautiful. The fenced in yard in the back was great for our dog. Book this without hesitation. Thank you so much for everything. We are so glad you came to personally meet us. You rock!
