Tiny House~Creeks & River Nearby Nestled in a private forest, Tiny Tanasi welcomes you to enjoy a unique retreat in a tiny house (just finished in 2024!). Woodland trails on 30+ acres meander throughout the property and two nearby creeks offer seasonal swimming holes and exploration. This distinctive spot is both a place of respite for those seeking time in nature and conveniently located to downtown Chattanooga. It's a perfect place for couples and families looking to escape or explore all Chattanooga has to offer.Welcome to Tiny Tanasi! Tiny Tanasi, derived from the Cherokee word for Tennessee, is a tiny house (JUST completed in 2023!) in a unique space where comfort meets nature. You'll find everything you need to enjoy a wonderful stay surrounded by acres of peaceful forest just 8 miles from downtown Chattanooga.Tiny Tanasi, entirely your own to enjoy, is cozy and comfortable. It offers a sleeping loft with a queen size bed and a reading loft - both accessible by ladder. We have a fully equipped kitchen with everything you'll need including pots & pans, dishes, cutlery, coffee, tea, spices, a gas range, microwave, and a French press. Tiny Tanasi's bathroom has a stand up shower with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash there for you. Our living room, with a smart TV, has a couch that transforms to accommodate an extra large twin sleeping space. We also have a washer/dryer combo for your use inside. You can choose to completely disconnect while here or tap into our lightning fast internet (over 1G)! Working remotely from here is easy, reliable, and relaxing.Tiny Tanasi's backyard is Prentice Cooper State Forest with its 26,000 acres of semi-protected land. We have trails throughout the property to explore and they start right out the front door. There are two nearby creeks that offer seasonal blue hole swimming. Sulphur Branch, down the hill from Tiny Tanasi, is easy to access. And Suck Creek, a local favorite, is just on the other side of Suck Creek road from the property. Tiny Tanasi is one of four cabins on our property where our family has been working for years to create a rare space for our guests to enjoy. Each cabin was either built by us from local materials or remodeled by us to be a unique space for you to experience.Born and raised here in Chattanooga, this land is the place we choose to raise our children - surrounded by nature and the incredible beauty of the Tennessee River Gorge. For the past three years, we have hosted a forest school on our property to give children the opportunity to learn while immersed in nature. The school is relocating across the street, but you can still find our outdoor classrooms when you walk through the woods. We have several fire pits for you to enjoy for fireside chats and marshmallow roasting. We also have a charcoal grill for your use.Guest Access:Our tiny house is entirely yours to enjoy. It is located on 30+ acres of private property where we have three other unique short term rentals. Tiny Tanasi has its own private space on the upper tier of our property.Interaction with Guests:I am happy to answer any questions and provide recommendations. We love Chattanooga (born and raised), so we're always excited to share what this place has to offer. We also live nearby and can be available if needed.Other Details to Note:Tiny Tanasi is nestled in the woods and while we do our best to keep nature on the outside, life can sometimes find a way in. This may not be the place for you if tiny insects are a deal breaker. All the water for Tiny Tanasi is filtered from a pristine spring and tastes wonderful (like nothing at all really), so there's no need to bring bottled water. We have a whole house filter in place as well as a Brita water pitcher in the fridge.In the event that Chattanooga experiences multiple days of below freezing temperatures, it is likely the water source for Tiny Tanasi will freeze. We will do everything in our power to provide a comfortable experience, but please understand that we have no control over mother nature. This tiny house may not be the best spot for exploring toddlers as there is a ladder to access the open loft spaces. Be sure to take that into consideration if booking with children.We straddle the Eastern and Central time zones. Be aware that cell phones may alternate between the two when in this area, but we abide by Eastern Standard Time (as does Chattanooga).
