Cozy Cabin on the Bluff
Cabin is comfortable with all the amenities one would want and a thoughtful and attentive contact. View from the cabin and the bluff beyond is fantastic, with some area to the property to walk and see some lizards skittering over the rocks. The only caveat--you will want to spend time on the cabin grounds, but there's a nearby highway where noise bounces off the ridge back at you, pretty much incessant during the day, and the trucks gearing up and down can be LOUD. Lets off at night. Pack noise cancelling headphones or earplugs just in case.

When we first drove to the little cabin, the view took our breath away. From that moment, just like magic,the relaxation and peace wash over you. We felt right at home at cozy "Billy Goat" Cabin. Our getaway has ended, but a piece of our hearts remain.

RESTFUL
Beautiful view the cabin was nice and cozy. We love the sunrise at the nice little breakfast table every morning. Only minor negative thing was the noise traffic from the highway but that was soon overlooked when you sit outside and just enjoy the view. We plan or hope to make it back sometime soon. All the people we meet around the 2 small towns were so nice to us we loved that.

Soul Purge at Heavens Gate
My wife and I are both firefighters/paramedics, were are no stranger to trauma. In June, our 28 year old special needs son was placed in the hospital, we would spend the next month watching his health slowly decline until doctors told us, there was nothing they could do. We lost him on July 16th. My wife and I looked everywhere for a place to purge our heart, breathe and reset. We were always drawn back to this little cabins listing. We both felt this was the place. Pictures do not do this view justice, you are high on the mountailn, looking into a deep lush farm filled valley. The cabin is small, but felt just like home, it is very private and quiet, which was our perfect enviorment that was needed. The sun rising across the valley is a spectacle for which heaven beckons. At night the stars feel like they are right our your door. The mountain air cleasning your soul as mother nature intends. We saw lots of critters too right off the screened porch. A doe with her two little fawns, a grey fox, a racoon, a box turtle, and the hawks circling and riding the wind , so close you feel the wisps of their feathers. This cabin indeed feels like the gate to Heaven. We will be back!!!!!!!

Rustic But Comfortable, Awesome View
This cabin is rustic, but comfortable. Overall it was clean, but the fridge could use a deep clean. My husband and I have stayed at about a dozen cabins on Lookout Mountain over the last 15 years, and this one had one of the best views. We loved that the cabin is tucked at the end of a quiet road, and is situated on the corner of a ridge, so the view is very interesting. There is a road coming up the mountain next to the cabin, so you will hear some vehicle noise. The yard and setting is just gorgeous. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Short Getaway!
My husband and I needed a few days to relax after an incredibly busy June and before my knee surgery. This cabin was perfect. The kitchen was nicely stocked, the bathroom, though tiny, was just right. The queen bed was very comfortable. But the view was the best! The cabin was close to some unique restaurants and places to explore. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Great Views......
Nice visit. Small cabin but just right for two adults. Nice furnishings. Very comfortable bed. Kitchen small but well equipped. No oven but huge Toaster over. Last part of driveway a little rustic but Mustang handled it well, watch out for speed bumps on drive in/out. Overall we had a great visit. View is the big selling point. Nice little screened in porch. Would recommend this to any age couple.
