05: The Finn Room - A PMI Scenic City Vacation Rental
Guest rating: 4.8 / 5
Overview
The Finn Room is one of the individually themed suites at The Lodge At Lookout Mountain, a vacation rental property near Chattanooga, Alabama-area travelers can reach easily off the interstate. Named for Danish architect Finn Juhl, the 600 square foot suite carries a mid-century modern design theme with softened lines throughout its furnishings. Guests must be 21 or older to book, and the property does not allow smoking, vaping, parties, or events.
Rooms
The suite features one king size bed and a full bathroom, styled with mid-century modern decor inspired by Finn Juhl's design philosophy. A stocked kitchenette includes a microwave and basic cooking essentials, and the room comes supplied with towels, soap, shampoo, body wash, coffee, cups, utensils, and plates. Air conditioning, heating, cable TV, and free Wi-Fi round out the in-room comforts.
Amenities & Recreation
Beyond the in-suite kitchenette, guests have access to a patio and outdoor grill for al fresco dining, plus free on-site parking. The property is smoke-free throughout. Note that shared backyard amenities such as a firepit and yard games are available but can be subject to availability depending on other guests' use during a stay.
Location
Positioned right off the highway, the Lodge offers quick access to Lookout Mountain and Downtown Chattanooga, with the Tennessee Aquarium roughly 10-15 minutes away by car. Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport is about 13.5 km away. Dining options are plentiful nearby, including Lucky's 777 just 238 meters away, Blackstone Grille at 1.6 km, Little Coyote and Common Table both under 2.5 km, and a broader mix of Southern, Italian, and Latin American restaurants within a few kilometers.
Best for
This suite suits couples or solo travelers seeking a design-forward, private "home away from home" for exploring Chattanooga's attractions, given its compact king-bed layout and proximity to Lookout Mountain and Downtown Chattanooga. It also works well for road-trippers who value easy interstate access and free parking. Because of the 21-and-older policy and no-party rule, it's best suited to quiet, adult getaways rather than large groups or celebrations.
Travel tips
Since the property sits right off the highway, expect some road noise during peak traffic hours, so light sleepers may want to plan accordingly. The Tennessee Aquarium is about 10-15 minutes away by car, and numerous restaurants (from Lucky's 777 just steps away to Blackstone Grille and Little Coyote within a couple kilometers) make dining out convenient without a long drive. Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport is roughly 13.5 km from the property, making arrival logistics fairly straightforward for fly-in guests.
What guests say
Guests consistently praise the Finn Room's mid-century modern design, cleanliness, and the convenience of amenities like coffee and towels being ready on arrival, with many describing the stay as a memorable, bucket-list experience. On the downside, some reviewers noted maintenance issues such as an entrance door that didn't seal well, a shower door that kept slipping off its track and wetting the bathroom floor, and thin walls that let in noise from neighboring rooms. A few guests also mentioned that shared outdoor amenities, like the firepit and yard games, weren't well maintained or available due to heavy use by other guests.
