Neighborhood
From family reunions to business trips to romantic getaways, whatever brings you to Chattanooga, Wauhatchie Woodlands is perfectly situated to act as your home base.
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.
