Creekside Cabin—Converted woodshop w/creek, fire pit & pavilion. Close to town

Creekside Cabin is a beautifully converted wood shop & lumber barn that is cozy, spacious & private. Nestled at the edge of the woods on our five acres, it's just minutes to everything Chattanooga has to offer! Upstairs is a spacious queen bedroom and full bath. The Italian-made modular staircase is similar to a "ships ladder" with alternating treads (see photos), and may not be appropriate for those that are physically challenged. Downstairs is a living area with comfy furniture, Smart TV with provided Netflix, and a well equipped kitchen and dining area. Relax on the covered wrap-around deck and enjoy the sounds of the creek, birds, squirrels and deer.

In addition to the cabin itself, guests at Creekside also have full access to some shared spaces. Just outside the cottage is a beautiful timber-frame pavilion. It's an incredible space with a full chef's kitchen, 36" gas range, 10' dining bar, 12' hand-built farm table, wood-fired oven, huge professional charcoal grill/smoker, plenty of seating, fans, chandeliers, and lots of character!

Alongside the cabin and pavilion, guests will enjoy sounds of the creek cascading down the hillside as it wraps around the spacious fire pit area landscaped with huge mountain boulders.

Perfect quite getaway close to everything
We could not have been more thrilled with our stay! The Creekside Cabin was absolutely adorable, and the perfect place to get away for a few days of peace and quiet. Everything was in perfect shape when we got there, and our stay was incredibly comfortable. The hosts were so lovely and communicative. We felt totally comfortable and right at home! We were able to enjoy feeling like we were closer to nature, but it was still a quick drive into Chattanooga whenever we wanted to do something. I could not recommend this place more highly.

Beautiful Stay Near Chattanooga
My boyfriend and I loved getting away from the city and staying at Creekside. The outdoor amenities were what drew us to this property, and they did not disappoint. We spent most of our time on the porch enjoying the peaceful scenery and hum of the wildlife. We were ecstatic to use the wood fired oven which the owners assisted us with and we all shared a delicious dinner outside on our last night at the property. We are looking forward to visiting again!

Great Property - Definitely Recommend!
We had a great time! The cottage was perfect and while close to the owner's home, there was plenty of privacy. We had a nice visit with the owners around the campfire. We will definitely stay there again when in the Chattanooga area!

The cottage was a great home away from home. Having coffee in the morning out on the deck was so relaxing. The bed was comfy. The stairs took a bit to get used to. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you Michael and Paula.

Great anniversary trip
Michael and Paula of the Pines Cottage are excellent hosts! From the moment we arrived, they made us feel welcome and at home in the property. The cottage is beautiful and has everything we needed and the outside amenities are next level. This is a great place to enjoy peace and quiet while also being within short distance of downtown Chattanooga. I highly recommend this stay.

Pleasant Surprise
My partner booked our stay and I never had a chance to look at the listing...until I showed up at Michael and Paul's place. Wow what an amazing pleasant surprise. From the super cool spread to their warm and generous hospitality. I can't say enough about our stay. We had a wonderful time hanging out with them both. Great conversation, delicious dinner and many laughs. It was by far, my favorite house rental experience. We will absolutory come and stay again. Cheers!

Wonderful stay, great hosts. Suggest the narrative mention the narrow steep stairway to the bedroom/bathroom. While the stairs would amuse and intrigue most, some might for ability or temperamental reasons want to avoid this property.

Lovely little spot!
Everything was perfect at our stay in this little cabin. The owners take great care in making sure it is sparkling clean, equipped with everything you need, and just as cute and cozy as can be. The bedroom was pitch dark and quiet at night. We slept so wonderfully thanks to the blackout blinds! The property has a pavilion, a fire pit, a beautiful garden, and some space to walk around if you wanted to. The owners, Michael and Paula, were very sweet and interesting people who are around and available to help if you need anything (or in our case - if you break something!). Downtown Chattanooga was easy to get to and pretty much everywhere we wanted to go was about a 20 minute drive. We loved being tucked away in this quiet nook in the woods. The very private porch off of the kitchen was a perfect way to enjoy our mornings - watching the birds and waking up. We loved it and would definitely stay again! I'm not sure if other reviewers already mentioned this, but if you have any trouble at all with stairs, this may not be the place for you since the steps to get to the bedroom were a bit tricky. Just a heads up but not a reason not to stay for anyone with no mobility issues.

Amazing Cottage
My husband and I decided to VRBO in Chattanooga and the experience was great. We really had a wonderful 3rd Anniversary/Vacation. The cottage was as described in the listing, the kitchen was very well equipped, much was provided for activities (corn hole boards, fire pit. Etc) and the hospitality was spot on and we felt very welcomed. Very centrally located to all the activities within the area and the longest drive time was appx. 15 min. Great experience! ❤️

Wonderful Experience
We had a great time staying at The Pines. Everything was as described and pictured. The best parts were the outdoor areas and the hosts, Michael and Paula. We enjoyed sipping coffee each morning on the private deck, and visiting with the hosts in the outdoor shared spaces in the evening. We were lucky enough to get a lesson in pizza making in the wood fire oven! It was so much fun. We also took advantage of the full outdoor kitchen for making breakfast in the morning. The cottage was perfect for the two of us, but they are building a larger two bedroom, 1 1/2 bathroom cottage, which would be great for two couples. If you stay here, try to spend some time with Michael and Paula. They are a great couple and lots of fun!

Gem in the woods
This is a gem of a place. It is cozy and fully stocked. It is located far enough away from the city to get the country feel, yet close enough to the city to be able to enjoy the attractions. The amenities available make it worth the cost. The owners are super sweet and thought of all the small items we often forget to bring with us. Looking forward to our next stay.

We stayed here on Christmas weekend and absolutely enjoyed our stay! Exactly as pictured. The stairs aren't too bad once you get the feel for them. The owners were easy to communicate with. Even with the water pipes freezing the kitchen pipes we still loved our stay. When our bathroom pipes froze, Michael was prompt to resolve the issue. Would defiantly book here again!
