Savor calm, relaxation, and solitude here. Fox View Cottage in Rising Fawn, GA is a stylish, new, custom-built home in a very unique setting. The cottage is perched at the base of Lookout Mountain on an eleven-acre parcel that extends up the side of the mountain. From the enormous front porch, you have a commanding view of Fox Mountain which straddles the Alabama/Georgia state line. Gently rolling hills and manicured fields are framed by meandering fences. The bucolic scene is stunning. The back of the home rests over a giant outcropping of boulders. In fact, a small section of the back deck had to be cut away in order to accommodate one of the boulders. Wildlife abounds in the surrounding woods and rock formations.

While relaxing in the peace and quiet of the cottage, you feel completely detached from civilization, but you aren't. This gem is only a 5-minute drive from I-59 and you can be at the closest supermarket in Trenton in only 7-8 minutes. The cottage is nestled in a lovely, intimate, tree-lined neighborhood on a private, packed-gravel road. There are only nine homes in the neighborhood and they are all on at least three acres so you have complete privacy. 25 minutes to Chattanooga , the Tennessee Aquarium, Rock City, and Ruby Falls, 15 minutes to Cloudland Canyon State Park and the famous Canyon Grill, 25 minutes to Mentone, AL. Central to so many attractions.

This home and setting would be perfect for a mini-retreat getaway, a holistic diversion, an intimate honeymoon, family vacation, women/friends reunion, a base camp for cavers, home base for families of Mentone, AL campers, a great place for those interested in learning more about local Civil War battles or former Cherokee Nation settlements, or the perfect central location for area scenic explorations and outdoor adventures. Did you know one of the finest hang gliding schools in the world is located in Rising Fawn or that Dade County, GA is the caving capital of Georgia--and quite possibly of the entire US !

Our single-story, 2200 square foot cottage is almost entirely wheel-chair accessible. There are no steps at either of the two main entryways and no steep grades from the parking area to the house. All flooring surfaces are hard--either tile or luxury plank vinyl. All doorways are a minimum of 35 wide. There is a walk-in shower in the master bathroom with grab bars. It does have a four-inch lip that must be negotiated so a wheel chair can not be used to enter it. The front porch as well as the back deck are wheel-chair accessible too.

As you approach the cottage, you are drawn into the expansive 550 square foot front porch that boasts an inviting daybed/porch swing and plenty of additional seating for your entire party to gather. It is the perfect spot to have that first cup of coffee in the morning while you plan your day's activities. Later that evening, it will be your go-to location to admire a stunning sunset or to star gaze--far from the city lights. It is undoubtedly one of the finest views of Fox Mountain in the area.

As you enter the great room you immediately notice the high, wood-beamed ceilings and the open floor plan, perfect for socializing. Your eye goes to the cool architectural details like the re-purposed vintage window that now serves as an airy room divider and the stained glass pieces that have been cleverly incorporated into the interior construction. This home was lovingly and painstakingly conceptualized by home designer Will Garrett and his wife Amy. This is no cookie cutter home.

All the bedrooms are off to your right, the kitchen and dining area to your left, and the great room anchors it all with an immense sectional couch, an occasional chair, and a recliner. There's no shortage of comfy seating here. You're never far from the hub of activity but the bedrooms are all completely separate and walled (no open-style loft bedrooms) so you have complete privacy if you want it. All three bedrooms are set up for maximum comfort with queen-size beds furnished with hotel-grade luxury linens and new, encased mattresses/box springs. The master bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a large, walk-in shower and a spacious walk-in closet. Inside the closet is an ingenious door that takes you to the second full bathroom which is just around the corner from the other two bedrooms. You essentially have his and her bathrooms. The second bathroom has a free standing tub and no shower. This second bathroom also serves as the primary guest bathroom.

Off the great room is a sun room with more comfortable seating. This is another great spot for reading or for keeping an eye out for wildlife that invariably wanders onto the property. The sun room is insulated but not hooked up to the whole-house HVAC system. We use a portable fireplace/space heater unit here in the winter to keep things warm and cozy.

The french door to the back deck is in the sun room. The back deck is 170 square feet and offers guests an entirely different, yet equally pleasing view. It is perched on beautiful rock formations and boulders. Please note that while these rock formations are amazing to look at, they are full of sharp, jagged edges, crevices, and caverns. Please supervise children very closely at all times if they venture near the boulders. There is an outdoor dining table and chairs on the deck as well as a propane grill for your use.

Special note to the reader of the family--the library has been stocked with lots of book choices from various genres. Most of us bring our own books, but you may be finishing one, or you may see one you've always wanted to read. If you want to take one and leave one, you are welcome to do so. Please bring a book to replace the one you take, and please be respectful about what you leave. This is definitely the place to enjoy a good book!

Free WiFi/high-speed internet, 65” smart TV in the great room, with YouTube-TV. The cottage does not have cable TV or a dish. All the channels you should need are on YouTube-TV.

Your well-behaved, friendly dog/s (two max, no cats please) is/are welcome in our cottage with prior approval and a fee ($35 per dog, per day). Please contact us for approval in advance as a part of your reservation. We will have you sign a separate pet approval/contract form if you'd like to bring your dog/s. Please note, our yard is not fenced.

We are always only a phone call or text away. If you have any problem, we will try to resolve it immediately. We own this cottage and manage it ourselves. You will never have to deal with a third party property management company or anyone who doesn't know the property as intimately as we do. We will be standing by to address any problems or issues.

The kitchen is well-equipped, the beds are extremely comfortable, and all the little touches—from quality linens to welcoming details—made us feel right at home. It struck the perfect balance between rustic charm and modern convenience.The host was fantastic—friendly, responsive, and clearly dedicated to ensuring guests have a great experience. Communication was smooth and helpful from start to finish.Overall, Fox View Cottage exceeded our expectations in every way.

    Absolutely amazing place. We were looking for a place to relax and disconnect. It was amazing place to do so. We sat on the porch a lot and enjoyed the constant breeze. House was super clean and very cozy. I have never had better communication with an owner. It truly was amazing and what our souls needed.

    We loved our stay at Fox View! A beautiful and comfortable home nestled in the most serene and peaceful area we’ve ever stayed. The owners are great hosts and so attentive to every detail. We brought our fur baby along and she loved being able to explore the large yard and see the deer that visited. We definitely hope to stay here again!

    Fox View Cottage is amazing - everything is as described, and more. The setting is absolutely gorgeous (rolling hills, mountains) and the house is simultaneously elegant and cozy. The living room has a large, comfortable sofa and a huge TV. The kitchen is well stocked, the house is beautifully decorated and there are very clear instructions to everything. There are three lovely bedrooms, modern bathrooms, a sun room and two outdoor areas (a deck and a fire pit area). And a front area looking down over the hills, with swinging couch and chairs. Everything is clean and updated. There are many well placed windows, so that even inside you are very much in nature. The cottage is within a short drive of Cloudland Canyon State Park and within half an hour of Chattanooga. We hiked at the state park and also drove to the Chickamauga Battlefield National Park. Denise is welcoming and responsive. You will love this place! A real 10 out of 10. (or maybe 12 out of 10!).

    Denise has a beautiful home and it is pet friendly. The neighborhood is nice and has lots of woods for us to walk our dogs. It was about a 30 minute ride to Cloudland Canyon State Park. The house was also set up great with labels on cabinets so we could find things easily.

    Short weekend get away at a beautiful location! It was a family of 4 and our dog and we absolutely loved it here. The location is secluded, however, you are not far from entertainment and civilization. The host was very responsive and helpful with any questions or inquiries we had. The atmosphere was very relaxing and all the people that lived on the street were very friendly to us.

    What a lovely place to stay for a special weekend. The house is spotless and beautifully decorated and the beds comfortable. Relaxing on the porch swing while watching the deer and just looking across the meadows to the mountains was my favorite part. Denise did an amazing job communicating and put together a fantastic guide for people who have never been to the area. We tried several of the restaurants she recommended and they were all delicious.
