Two room, "upstairs" suite in Flintstone, GA which is a quiet, rural community located at the foot of Lookout Mountain and only a beautiful drive 10 miles from downtown Chattanooga; riverfront; TN Aquarium; Coolidge Park; lots of great restaurants, and many other outdoor sights & activities.

We provide water, juice, oatmeal and coffee for breakfast. There's a microwave, mini fridge, coffee maker, ice bucket, plates, silverware and even a corkscrew.

The wife and I suggest everyone give this place a shot. It’s cozy and very peaceful. The owners are lovely and answered all of our questions and also gave good suggestions for hiking, restaurants and tourist places all over the area. We highly recommend this place for a loving couple. We will definitely be back, soon!

Super comfortable and great location

Our hosts were very kind and helpful with info on local areas. The beds were super comfortable, which is not always the case with some VRBOs. Amenities were all there as needed...and it had a great shower. It was quiet and was perfect for a writers' weekend get away. Our book is nearly complete now!

Cozy little place

The owners were great and very helpful with reviews of local things to do. It’s a perfect location for lookout mountain, Chattanooga downtown and plenty of hiking trails all around. The rooms we stayed in were nice and clean. Very cozy. I would stay here again on our next visit to the area. 5 Stars easily.

Great rural getaway

Great time at The Roost. Yvonne & Jim were extremely hospitable and gracious hosts. The Roost was simple but sweet and had everything needed for a weekend getaway. There isn't a full kitchen, but as long as you know that going in, this spot is perfect for the location and price.

Excellent lodging for a small family. Quiet, cozy, and clean, not to mention affordable.

The owners were warm and friendly, the house charming, and the room very comfortable with all the amenities you would expect from a hotel room. There’s a steep climb up the stairway to the room, but our four year old managed it perfectly. The location was peaceful and only a few minutes’ drive to all things Chattanooga.

The Roost is great!

Our stay at The Roost was fantastic! There was plenty of space for our group of four of 2 adults and two teens. There were comfy beds, a nice work space to do homework, games for unwinding, plenty of snacks/cocoa for a special treat, and the hosts were really sweet and informative. We are already looking forward to our next visit.

Flintstone GA comfy stay

Yvonne and Jim are some of the friendliest, most accommodating hosts that I’ve had. The Roost is a quaint home away from home. Very clean, well stocked and comfortable. Even though the Roost is upstairs in their home, we had so much privacy, didn’t see them except for the first and last day, it was a space to ourselves. We will be staying again!

Great location! Great hosts!!

This was the first time booking a Vrbo and it was a great experience! Yvonne and Jim made sure that almost anything a guest would need was provided. Towels, snacks, coffee, hair dryer, fresh towels, etc. Yvonne greeted us upon arrival and we had called to let her know it would be a late check in. She was there with a smile to show us our room. Although this is in their home, it felt very private. It was close to all we planned to do! Perfect location! We had the opportunity to visit with Yvonne and Jim when we checked out and just loved talking with them! We will be back!! Thank you for providing a great place to lay our heads!!

We enjoyed the Roost

The Roost was just as described, and we enjoyed our stay. The one thing I didn't catch from the listing (it may have been there and I missed it) was there is not a separate entrance. It worked fine, just different than I expected. It was lovely, and we had a nice time and enjoyed our host's personal touches.

Our stay at the Roost

Our first VRBO experience was awesome! Our hostess Yvonne greeted us at our car and then sweet Fergie, there dog gave us a welcome every time we left and returned. Our room was perfect for our family of 5, 3 adults and 2 children. They made sure we had everything we needed and it felt like home. We enjoyed talking with Jim and Yvonne. Thank you for a great time. We will use VRBO again and hope to be back to The Roost someday. Also, thanks for making our granddaughter feel so special with those skeleton keys you gave her.

Yvonne and Jim are just the nicest folks! They made us feel right at home, again!

Second stay!!! We knew we were going to be late arriving. We brought our 6 year old granddaughter along this time. Yvonne gladly set up the extra twin bed and had the futon made up for our 14 year old son. It was so nice to shower and crawl into bed without that extra work. Having breakfast items, snacks, juice, water and hot beverages was so nice! It had been a while since supper so having microwave popcorn was awesome!!! You just can’t beat the comfort and economy of staying at “The Roost”! We’ll definitely be back!
