Once an old trailer park, the May family has lovingly rehabilitated this 14-acre property at the base of Lookout Mountain into a tranquil retreat, surrounded by forest. Wauhatchie Woodlands offers a natural escape just minutes from beautiful Downtown Chattanooga, blending modern comfort with a unique rustic experience.

Chattanooga has been recognized by Outdoor Magazine, Southern Living, Tripadvisor, Thrillist Zagat and many more media outlets as a must-visit destination for travelers of all kinds.

You’ll be staying less than a mile from one of Tennessee's most popular attractions, Ruby Falls, and just over five miles from Rock City.

If you’re craving the great outdoors, you’ll find no shortage of hikes, waterfalls, overlooks, and historical sites, all within just a few minutes of your cabin. A short walk from the property is the Skyuka Springs trailhead, which will connect you to Sunset Rock, Point Park, the Chattanooga Nature Center, and more. Raccoon Mountain Caverns are only 4 miles away and offer both walking and wild cave exploration tours. If you’re here for rock climbing, you’ll be less than a mile from Sunset Rock Climbing Crag, with Tennessee Wall and many other climbing spots just a few miles away. Located right off the Tennessee river, a day on (or in) the water is close at hand, with several conveniently located boat drops and ample opportunities for rafting, kayaking, or SUP-ing.

Less than 10 minutes away, Downtown Chattanooga offers world-class dining and entertainment options for all ages. Visit the Tennessee Aquarium, voted one of America's 10 best by USA Today. Enjoy a bite to eat at the historic Chattanooga Choo Choo complex which includes a brewery, distillery, several restaurants, and an array of seasonal activities. For a fun afternoon, visit the Selfe Museum, hit some balls at Top-Golf, or take one of Chattanooga’s pedal bike brewery tours. Experience culture and panoramic views from the Bluff View Arts District and Hunter Museum of American Art. Stroll across the Walnut Street pedestrian bridge and explore local shops in the quirky Northshore neighborhood.

If history is what attracted you, Wauhatchie Woodland sits a stones throw from the site of the decisive Civil War “Battle Above the Clouds.” The property is bordered by National Park land, preserving the historic battlefield. Point Park, at the top of Lookout Mountain includes several Civil War memorials and an interpretive center. The area has long, rich history dating back thousands of years to the early Cherokee people who called the mountain Chat-a-nu-ga, the city's namesake.

You’ll have your cabin all to yourself during your stay. Wauhatchie Woodlands is a 14-acre property surrounded by National Forest. Guests have access to trails around the grounds, as well as shared cabanas, community fire pits, and playground. Please be respectful of other guests during your stay.
Wauhatchie Woodlands is a family-owned collection of quaint, tiny-home, rustic-comfort log cabins on a 14-acre wooded property surrounded by National Park land. This natural setting is nested less than a mile from the city with quick access to downtown Chattanooga, Ruby Falls, Lookout Mountain, and the surrounding area.

Named after Frank & Nicole's Dutch host-son, Stefen Cabin is equipped with everything you could ever need to make the most of your time in Chattanooga.

During your stay, you’ll enjoy a furnished back deck with a covered hot tub, a covered front porch with charcoal grill, and an incredibly memorable, charming space surrounded by forest.

Stefan can comfortably sleep up to 4 guests between the main bedroom and sleeping loft. The cabin is equipped with a full kitchen, smart TV, private washer dryer combo, and more.

Starting from the back, you’ll find the fully furnished deck, where you can enjoy tranquil evenings surrounded by decades-old trees. Off the deck is the covered pavilion with Private Hot Tub.

Inside, the main bedroom hosts a queen bed, closets for hanging clothes, lots of drawer storage, and a Smart TV. Just outside the bedroom is your dedicated washer and dryer combo unit on one side and the full bathroom with bathtub on the other.

A step further we enter the kitchen, fully stocked for cooking/dining with an electric range, microwave, stove, full-size fridge, dishwasher, and all the dishes you need to whip up a vacation feast. The living room and kitchen feature an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings with the main TV across from the sofa.

Up the staircase is the sleeping loft equipped with two twin beds. Kids will love having their own space. For grownups, clearance in the loft is low, just 4' - it’s perfect for sleeping, just watch your head when you get up.

The cabin’s covered front porch with dining set is the perfect place for a morning cup of coffee, or grilling out on your dedicated charcoal grill (guests must provide their own charcoal).

Great Stay
We loved the Stefan cabin and had a great stay. It was very clean and well decorated and the hot tub was a relaxing end to each day. It was very convenient to the Lookout Mountain attractions and to downtown Chattanooga. We’ll definitely be back.

Book This Cabin Now!!!
We loved staying at this cabin! The check-in process was extremely easy thanks to an email the day before we arrived with ALL the important information. We were able to drive up to the cabin and enter our code on the door without any problems. The location of the cabin is PERFECT for someone wanting near the downtown area but distanced enough for nature. We were able to get to everything we wanted within 20-30 minutes, including the aquarium, Ruby Falls, and Rock City. The staff are extremely helpful and kind. Our trash can outside was emptied daily and when we reported a limb hit the neighboring cabin during a storm, they were there cleaning and repairing within about ten minutes. The beds were comfortable, even upstairs in the loft. The water pressure was perfect. My favorite part was the hot tub, especially after a day of hiking in the mountains. There are busy train tracks behind the cabins, but we only heard them when outside it the hot tub. We will 100% stay there again if we come back to Chattanooga.

Perfect Getaway
We had such a wonderful experience here as a family of 3 and will definitely be back. The amenities are perfect and location is quiet, yet close to the local attractions. Our kiddo loved the loft and hot tub. Be back soon!

About the host

Hosted by Timberroot Rustic Retreats

Host profile image
I have loved world travels my entire life; though as father of 8 kids, our movements have been more limited of late. I am an entrepreneur and business owner, lover of history, plants, nature, my faith, philosophy, and my family. We love Chattanooga for too many reasons to list, but also cherish variety and the beauty so many places in the world have to offer.

As hosts, you will find us responsive and accommodating and eager to share the treasures of our town and learn the treasures of your own. We know the trails, many waterfalls, parks, restaurants, and attractions of Chattanooga quite well and are willing to be a resource for our guests, offering an intimate knowledge of the area.

As a traveler, on business I tend to work, read and rest if I can, and prefer to travel with associates or family when I can. As a vacationer, I am eager to share and celebrate the diversity of creation and humanity with my family and to give them an explorers heart, a warmth for difference, and a bit of zeal for travel too. I prefer National Parks to cities, but cities carry their own attraction. I prefer mountains to beaches, forests to fields, and local to corporate or suburban.

Why they chose this property

This was an old trailer park. We saw great potential for it, as a gem of a natural setting so incredibly close to the city. We offer a natural escape right on Lookout by the beautiful city of Chattanooga with unique and modern rustic comfort for the perfect mountain side stay.
