The Redbud - A PMI Scenic City Vacation Rental

Amazing Location! The Redbud is a single level bungalow located within walking distance to the heart of St Elmo in Chattanooga. Professionally designed decor adds a comfortable feel to this completely updated historic home. At the base of Lookout Mtn, the Redbud is a short 5 minute walk to some great local eateries and The Incline Railway that will take you up the mountain to Point Park where you can experience majestic views and some of the history of Chattanooga. The Redbud has all the comforts you expect of a hotel but with the privacy of your own place. The front porch deck is perfect for enjoying a hot cup of coffee or tea before exploring the area. This property is perfect for singles, couples, families and business travelers. The Redbud is also only 5 minutes drive to Rock City and Ruby Falls.

The reduced cost of these clean(s) will be added together if applicable and calculated according to length of your stay - THIS ADDITIONAL COST IS NOT CALCULATED IN THE LISTING PRICE WHEN YOU INITIALLY BOOK and is due upon booking. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. For this location, each clean will cost $105.

Great spot for our long weekend in Chattanooga

We were referred to this house by family members who have stayed here multiple times, so we knew in advance it was going to be perfect for my wife and I, our daughter and son-in-law, and our son. Could not have asked for a better accommodations.

This was a very convenient location. We enjoyed Rock City all adorned with Fall colors our first evening and exploring Chattanooga other days. Walkable to little St. Elmo area with a lot of cafes, ice cream and food options. The house was very well suited for the 5 of us with ample space to enjoy meals, cook and just hang out together. Enjoyed coffee on the front porch. Really nice primary bedroom and spa like bathroom.

Short getaway

The home was as advertised. Very well stocked, better than average furnishings and condition, and a great St Elmo location right next to all that Lookout Mountain offered. Our trip was a rain-soaked one but the house was great. Super responsive host too.

Great VRBO!

This place was perfect for two couples! We came for a weekend in Chattanooga and this a was a great place to stay. It was walking distance from the incline which we took up early morning and it was an easy drive to both Rock City and Ruby Falls. We loved the house - really well done and comfortable. Highly recommend this home!

Excellent communication with host. The property was smack dab in the center of all we had planned. I would definitely rent this space again. There was a small issue of sugar ants on a counter in the kitchen, we contacted the property manager and they were willing to have cleaners come out immediately. We deferred this solution, so management refunded our cleaning fee.
