About Pennington Place

A mountain home rooted in four generations

Pennington Place is our family home on Lookout Mountain — a place we've loved for generations, now opened to share with guests who are looking for something real. Three bedrooms, two baths, a full acre of land, and a fire pit that has a way of slowing everything down.

Five minutes from Cloudland Canyon. Forty minutes from Chattanooga on the most scenic drive you'll find. And quiet — the kind that guests mention every single time without being asked.

"Barbara and Danny were the best hosts I've ever encountered. The house over exceeded my expectations. There were so many special touches and extras — and so many activities to do just on the property alone. My family had the best experience and trip thanks to Barbara and Danny."

JennyWoodland, California · May 2026 · Stayed with kids
★★★★★

"We loved staying at Barbara's place! My husband was able to work remotely with no problems at all. Barbara even left out her state parks pass for us — and set up a dedicated workstation when she found out my husband would need to work remotely. She's an amazing host and I would stay again!"

JessicaOrlando, Florida · May 2026 · Stayed with a pet
★★★★★

"Barbara's place is a beautifully private getaway! We felt at home right away. Barbara left us lots of snacks and a s'mores kit. There are so many activities you won't have to go anywhere else for entertainment. Still, we visited Cloudland State Park and Chattanooga. The mountain road is so gorgeous and scenic — we didn't mind the drive at all."

Roomy, immaculate, has everything we needed — campfire loaded s'mores ingredients and wood, snacks, coffee and tea bar, pizza in freezer, ice cream treats, yogurt! Comfy beds, lovely furnishings, big yard, front porch with porch swing and rocker, swings in the yard, beautiful setting, pretty woods behind the house. I can't say enough nice things about Pennington Place! So close to Cloudland Canyon and convenient to all the places we wanted to go. I give it 20⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"Barbara was more than accommodating for our overnight stay. Home was clean, and beds were comfortable. Coffee pods were plentiful, as were morning treats. She also had a couple of passes for the local state park. The road up the mountain from Trenton was winding but had great views."

"Very nice place in a quiet area just south of Chattanooga. The best thing about it was the area — good for hikers or people seeking quiet. The hostess was very attentive in the little details that made it feel just like home. Would recommend for anyone looking for a quiet place outside the city."
