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 arent. 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 seven homes in the neighborhood and they are all on at least six 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. 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 days 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. Theres no shortage of comfy seating here. Youre 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 youve 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 LG Smart TV in the great room, with a paid subscription to 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 youd 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 doesnt know the property as intimately as we do. We will be standing by to address any problems or issues.

Meet The Host

Denise
Owner
DeniseIcon
I became a short term rental host in 2019. We are a retired Army family and I was a stay-at-home mom for 20 years. I "reinvented" myself when our two sons left the nest. I became a massage therapist and discovered (at age 50) that I had a strong entrepreneurial bent. I owned a boutique spa for 10 years and sold it recently. We purchased our little slice of heaven on Lookout Mountain not long ago and I love having something new to study and grow into. Hospitality has been a gift. The opportunity to share what we have built and creating a space where people can savor calm, relaxation, and solitude in this crazy world is such a blessing.

5. Guest agrees to supervise children at all times. There are rock formations and boulders that the home backs up to.

c. Awair is an air quality monitor. It measures VOC levels in the cottage and sends owner a notification if VOCs—like those generated by smoking—are detected and exceed a pre-established level. Please do not tamper with these devices.
46. Guest agrees to the following fire pit rules:
Never use the fire pit under high wind conditions or extreme drought.
Check this site to see if fires are permitted in Dade County, https://m.wfas.net Zoom in on the very far north west county in Georgia. That's Dade County. As long as the risk is "Low" or "Moderate", it's safe to build a fire in the fire pit. DO NOT build a fire if the risk is "High", "Very High", or "Severe". You may also call the local Dade County Chief Ranger, Heath Morton, at (706) 657-4211.
If campfires are NOT banned, and you opt to have a campfire during your stay, it is important to use extreme caution and fully extinguish your fire. A water bucket, hose, and fire extinguisher are available for your use. They are kept in the utility closet.
Federal, State, and County authorities may issue fines beginning at $500 for fires left unattended (flames and/or smoke) or when bans on campfires have been issued. You are responsible for all damage caused by your campfire, even if wind caused the fire to spread. You could be deemed responsible for the cost of firefighters extinguishing the fire if you were negligent in preventing the fire. You may also face civil and criminal penalties, and fines may also be issued if your campfire escapes the fire pit. Please be sure to burn only logs that are smaller than the fire pit ring. Do not burn trash. Do not use accelerants such as lighter fluid or gasoline. Do not burn the pine straw that surrounds the fire pit area.
Do not remove ashes or embers from the fire pit.
Practice good fire safety and don't let anyone play with lighters or matches. Do not burn anything that’s not meant to be burned. Remove flammable items from the hearth area and always protect people, clothing, and furniture from stray sparks.
Never leave a fire unattended by an adult. Douse the fire when you are ready to retire for the evening.
47. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY Guest agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Denise or Rick Sullivan against all loss, damage, expense, and penalty arising from any action of the Guest or visitors of the Guest which causes injury or death to any person or damage to any property. Further Guest agrees that Denise and Rick Sullivan should, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be protected from any and all loss, injury, damage, claim, lawsuit, cost, expense, attorneys’ fees, litigation costs, or any other cost arising out of or in any way related to the occupation of the rental unit. Further, the resort area of Rising Fawn, GA offers a number of outdoor activities including hang-gliding and caving, which include inherent hazards, especially potential slip and fall accidents due to wet surfaces, and equipment. Guests are responsible for properly stowing equipment and for ensuring a safe, dry environment while in the cottage.
48. Trip Cancellation/Interruption Insurance. It is highly recommended that guest purchase trip cancellation/interruption insurance in case of family emergencies/bad weather delays, flight/rental car cancellations, job loss, snow/ice, Covid-19 bans/restrictions, etc. If you live in an area prone to hurricanes, forest fires, etc. and cannot make your trip, please seek reimbursement through your travel insurance. NO refunds are given unless there is a mandatory evacuation in our area. Please check what travel insurance your credit card may offer. You can also visit www.insuremytrip.com.
