Pot Point Cabin
In 1993, renovations were made to the original cabin that included a great room with floor to ceiling windows that provide a scenic view of the Tennessee river, an upstairs bathroom with shower, a downstairs wheelchair accessible bathroom, and a small but serviceable kitchen. There are two decks overlooking the river.
Across the road up, the driveway and to the left, this cabin even has its own Self-Guided Nature Trail. It is a moderately strenuous, 3.5 mile loop trail featuring some steep climbs and reaching over 1,000 feet in altitude around Azalea Point. Along with the recreational experience, hikers will be able to enjoy the rich biodiversity that is found in the Tennessee River Gorge.

• Primary responsible renter must be 25 years old.
*We require a photo of your ID and a photo of yourself as well as your signature on our rental agreement to complete your reservation. We will send a reservation confirmation email to you, and the e-doc rental agreement is located at the bottom of the email (green tab.) Please complete all lines on the rental agreement. Even if you make your reservation through AirBnB, HomeAway, etc (instead of directly on our website), we require this.
* No Pets allowed.
* The time zone on your devices will switch to Central time- which 1 hour ahead of Eastern time. Please note that arrival and departure times for the house, attractions in the downtown Chattanooga area, and the Lookout Mountain attractions are Eastern daylight time (EDT.)*
* Interior fireplaces are for decorative purpose only and can not be used.
• The water at Pot Point is well water and is considered non-potable (Not drinkable).
We do however provide a 5 gallon cooler of potable (drinkable) water for our guests and we also recommend that you bring additional drinking water dependant on the size of your group. This property is on a well and sometimes with the overuse of water, the well pump may not keep up and may take several hours to refill the tank. Please use water sparingly.
• This property is about 12 miles from downtown, but sometimes feels further because of the slow, narrow, winding river road. You will lose your internet and phone signal on the way to the house- Please print the driving instructions and the lock code prior to arriving to the house. The view is fantastic however, and provides a wonderful way to slow down from hectic daily life!
• Log cabins have the tendency to leak when it rains very hard. Every effort is made to avoid this but we have thus far been unable to avoid it.
Note: Most of our properties are rural and wooded. Please do not expect a perfectly manicured lawn.
We cut a little here and there when we see fit to do so.
We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. We love
guests of all types as long as they pay for the use of the property and take good care of that property during their
stay.

"The team, especially Robin, was very kind, nice & informative. "
We enjoyed it so much. Amazing view@! We felt lucky to stay there.- Mary , Posted:
Our stay was wonderful! It was my husband and I and our two boys! This cabin was located outside of the busy bustling town and allowed us to unwind and disconnect if we chose to or ride the short 25 minute ride to any restaurant or activity desired!!! We will definitely be back to stay!! The cabin was perfect and rustic just like the post stated!!! The hiking trails nearby were very convenient! The river was literally right outside the door and my boys enjoyed that very much so!!!
- Tiffany , Posted: 04/10/2021
The Cabin was perfect! Clean, spacious, beautiful views and perfect location for hiking and near Chattanooga. Very clean and organized, plenty of supplies to last our stay, even with 9 guests.
The best customer service!!

Beautiful house Exactly what we needed . It’s spacious , rustic, a nice wonderful getaway. The view of the river is magnificent. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The owners were extremely nice. Will definitely come back!
- Carolina , Posted: 07/06/2021
Staff was great! Super nice and always quick to respond.
Great property. Just wish we had been a little closer to town since we had little ones with us that got tired quickly during the day.- Cassi , Posted:
This cabin is historic and beautiful! Only about a 20-25 minute drive to downtown Chatanooga. The view of the river is amazing and the local hiking trails are not overcrowded. The road to the cabin was winding and at times it felt like one lane road especially at night. Great cabin and location!

This has to be the best customer service bunch I've dealt with. Super nice, knew the area & would explain anything you needed. Even if you don't talk to the same person each time they all know what's going on and will get you an answer. They really did ma
This property is better than advertised. Beautiful, peaceful & the view is just awe inspiring. Whether you want to hike, read a book, relax outside or go into town, it's perfect for R & R. I would say one thing I've read some of the other reviews. The road is tight, winding and could give your heart a couple jumps but coming from West Virginia it's what you would expect to get to a quiet, peaceful place at a hiking trail head never the less. My wife and I both thought it brought a since of fun and adventure traveling in. So, don't let any of that scare you. It is a good bit to the store so pack (food) accordingly. Sit back, drink a glass of wine or whatever and enjoy the history of this amazing cabin. It's worth every penny, which is my wife's name and we did!!!! P.S. there are some rocks right down from the Cabin to the left, might have to get your feet wet but sitting out there was so peaceful.- Greg , Posted:
Head my son's batch for weekend at the cabin. Enjoyed a lot of time by the fire, the view of the river was great. It's an awesome cabin, very clean, very private. The commute to Chattanooga was not bad at all.
- Tim , Posted: 04/19/2021
They were very understanding when a family emergency caused us to have to postpone and worked with us to reschedule our trip. We are very grateful. Each person we talked with was very informative as well-any questions we had were answered promptly. Thanks
The property is beautiful..lots of room to roam.- Karen , Posted:
Enjoyed the history of the fabulous cabin and the view. Older amenities, but everything worked fine as we fixed dinner at the cabin every night. No satellite TV, but smart tv and wifi along with some apps. Wifi calling kept us in touch without an AT&T signal. Loved the experience.
- Greg , Posted: 10/15/2021
This is our second stay in Pot Point cabin, communication is very easy and always a quick response. Our cabin was clean, comfortable and more than accommodating with a beautiful location close to hiking

The CVR team was very helpful. I also appreciated being able to book our place without the added fees of VRBO etc. Loved the cabin! It was very comfortable, and the location was amazing. I also loved walking out each morning to take in the river view! A cookie sheet in the kitchen. Otherwise, well stocked!! It would have also been nice if there was recycling.
- Jami , Posted: 02/21/2021
Great rental for large family - plenty of living space and bathrooms.
The view was so beautiful in the fall with the leaves dropped. So nice and private and quiet.
Easy to book, pay, check-in and out, and excellent communication.
- Jennifer , Posted: 11/28/2021
Easy to book. We were provided with plenty of information about our rental. Very nice and friendly people.
Wonderful cabin. Loved the history. Grandkids were fascinated with the logs in the walls and how they were put together. Even though we enjoyed our stay, we probably wouldn't want to stay again. The drive up and down the mountain was crazy!! we have been flat landers too long!
- Sharon , Posted: 12/30/2020
The place was great, Chattanooga Vacations rentals was phenomenal! It's secluded, allows for a fire, grilling, lawn games and a great view of the river. We also were able to go for a hike up to a waterfall!

"Great stay, good accommodations and friendly, helpful staff."- Terry , Posted:
Look up "Good ol' Suthn' Hospitality" and you'll be directed to Chattanooga Vacation Rentals!
Thank you all at CVR for your thoughtful kindness and generosity--truly a blessing to this old intrepid!
The modernized two-story log dogtrot (full dovetail corners) is a truly remarkable architectural work. My stay with you capped off an absolutely perfect weekend--thank you!
God Bless,

We had our "late Christmas" with the grandkids, due to the pandemic, at the cabin. It was IDEAL. Plenty of room for all of us and just perfect!! We had plenty of room with the kids and the nature trails made for great "adventures"! We struggled with getting the streaming television going - Paula at CVR was AMAZING. She went above and beyond helping us out.

Great home for a large family
We loved our stay for a holiday weekend! The views for the Fall season were beautiful. The house had plenty of living and sleeping space. The internet was super fast. And only a 20 minute or so short drive in to Chattanooga.
- Jennifer , Posted: 11/29/2021
Pot Point Cabin was beautiful, for a building of it's age, it's immaculate inside.

- Amy , Posted: 09/06/2021
Excellent historic cabin within 30 min drive of everything in Chattanooga.
We loved our stay here. The cabin easily accommodated 4 adults and 4 teenage boys very comfortably. You are within reasonable driving distance of most of Chattanooga while still maintaining a secluded woods setting.- Adam M from Richmond Hill, Posted: 07/18/2021
Awesome
The place was absolutely beautiful and we loved the “old” style.
