Great little cozy cabin. Great location…only 20 min from town yet still far enough on top of the mountain to feel like you’re miles away. Great place to relax. Great views up and down the mountain. Across the road a great view of the valley. Beautiful at night. Seeing all the lights. Would recommend several times.

Sister Trip

The cabin was just like the pictures. Very clean and well furnished. I gave it 4 stars because it needs a new dishwasher. The one in there does not clean and food was in the bottom making it smell like rotten broccolli. Did not have a dish rag or dish drainer. Not a huge deal as we were not strangers to doing dishes by hand. The hit tub was very enjoyable as well as the fire pit. I would recommend this property for friends or a family.

Nice getaway

Ok for the rate. Could use some attention to detail cleaning. Vents in the bathroom needed a good cleaning and it could use a better mirror. The kitchen sink faucet drip on the hot side. the air filter needs to be changed. My husband is a HVAC technician so that one of the 1st things we noticed because of his occupation. Also the 1 of the bulb in the fan upstairs was broken and hanging and several plug outlet didn't work.

Wonderful Memories

Our stay at Sparrow's Nest was cozy and relaxing. We enjoyed the cleanliness of the cabin and the adventurous things to do in Chattanooga. The hot tub was a plus after a long day of exploring the city. My only regret is that we forgot to sign the guest book! Nevertheless, it's a memory that we won't forget and my husband wants to visit again! Thanks so much for such a comfortable stay!

We had a wonderful time at Sparrows Nest! The views were amazing. We enjoyed the hot tub, grill & s’mores by the fire. The cabin was cozy & very clean. It was exactly what we were looking for!

Wonderful getaway, in spite of a few hiccups

This property was beautiful! My wife and I had such a lovely time. So close to Chattanooga and also to hikes made it perfect for a short getaway! Only a few drawbacks: the property was not very well marked. We had to drive by several times before we just pulled in, hoping this was the right place. A simple sign would be great! Also, the owner only provided one roll of toilet paper. After scouring the agreement, I located the sentence in which this was warned of, but still... One roll?? Overall though, these two bummers could not overshadow the fact that the cabin was STUNNING and the location was even better. Love it and highly recommend.
