About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Lake Life!

The thing I love most about our home is our amazing sunrises. It’ll feel like you’re 1,000,000 miles from civilization when you’re just tucked away on a semi-private lake. Enjoy fishing, swimming, boating, floating, sun bathing, or just simply relaxing. We are only 10 minutes from shopping, restaurants, golf courses, parks and hiking, and several major wedding venues. We are 20 minutes from downtown chattanooga and major city attractions including Rock City, Ruby Falls, Chattanooga Aquarium, Chattanooga Zoo, Cherokee National Forest, the Ocoee River, and much more. Our lake season is limited to six months. April through October. You will always have amazing water views and sunrises, but water activities may be limited during the off-season.

We are pet friendly for smaller, house broken, cage trained pets, but please ask about our pet fee.

Come see why we love Chattanooga and choose to call Ooltewah our home. This is a private access basement apartment in my home. We live upstairs. But youll have all the privacy you want and need for a great vacation with your own driveway private entrance, and private hot tub, and fire pit.

Beautiful Location
We stopped here for a night before heading on to Nashville and it was so peaceful and quiet, we loved our stay, wished we could have fished as we weren’t brave enough to kayak but loved the experience of staying on the lake and waking up to the amazing sunrise. It was a little way away from any restaurants for us but we loved it all the same

Lake Paradise
This was a beautiful property. The lake is gorgeous and the apartment is comfortable and cute. Using the paddle board and sitting on the dock was definitely the highlight. A great escape. I will be recommending this rental to all of my friends and family.
