A unique stay approximately 11 miles from Chattanooga, TN, but minutes to many dining establishments, movie theatre, bowling alley, supermarkets and golf courses in the suburb of Hixson. While it is nice to be close to everything, it is always pleasant to come in after a busy day to a cozy sanctuary, and this is what you'll find taking a short piece down a private drive to a gated entrance that opens up to two homes on almost 4 acres that are nestled between the trees.

The Ole Pole Barn has been remodeled into a cozy cabin for two in a private park-like setting. Enjoy the large deck and if it starts to rain, grab the umbrella and go the patio to listen to the sound of rain on the tin roof. Your cabin also has a park grill in front of the deck. The cabin is equipped with 2 Roku Smart TV's, fully equipped kitchen, washer, dryer and more.

We encourage out guests to enjoy the entire property (except the fenced area behind our house which is for our dogs).  We do not allow our dogs to explore outside their fence when guests are here.  In the common area, there are picnic tables, a park grill, swing, a faux general store with a porch to sit on and a firepit with wood supplied. There are corn hole boards and bags available upon request.

We are pet friendly, limit 2; dogs only, with pet fee of $35.00 for the first pet and $15.00 for the second. Please let us know if you are bringing your fur babies.

We do live on the property and there is a 10' x 20' movie screen with drive-in movie speakers. On occasion we do show movies and guests are free to join at no charge. If you have your own projector that has sound, you are more than welcome to use the movie screen. We have a table or tripod available for use upon request.

We have just renovated a building on the property that was made of windows and doors with glass. It has been repurposed into a studio with the intention of having painting classes for guests in the future. In the meantime, our guests can visit "Windows into Creation," and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea in the sitting area with the outdoor views all around, but still in that perfect temperature.

**We do have a $500.00 deposit fee that is charged to the card used for booking and that is fully refundable within one week of departure if no damages are incurred.* This deposit fee is applicable even if you are not bringing pets.**

KNOW BEFORE YOU BOOK and this is WHY:

We want our guests to be happy and that our photos and description be representative of where you will stay and what to expect, if any of the things listed below are something that would cause you not to enjoy your visit, then we had rather for you to continue looking to find that perfect getaway and thank you for looking at our place:

The private drive that brings you to our property is about a tenth of a mile; with private being said, this is not a road kept up by the county so is a little rough, but not a problem for most cars unless they are extremely low to the ground. On the good side of this, this keeps most people off our little road and adds to the privacy you'll find when you get back here.

Note that the barn has a tin roof without an attic, so when it rains hard, it does get pretty loud.

Being beside Choo Choo (Chattanooga) city, there is a train crossing about a mile from the property, so if you're outside you will hear the trains blowing. You will hear the train from inside the Ole Pole Barn, but for most, it is not so loud that it is bothersome. We provide fans for those who like the white noise.

Basic paper products are provided to get you started on your trip; however, guests are responsible for any toiletry, paper product needs (aside from coffee filters) during your stay. We provide liquid soap at all sinks during your entire stay. Shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, toothpaste, toothbrush and lotion are available upon request: if you would like these to be available when you arrive, please let us know.
