A proper journey deserves a proper drink.
Settle in with a cocktail before seeing where the evening takes you.

Elsie’s is open nightly for dinner and drinks starting at 4pm, and serving brunch on the weekends at 10am.

There’s an art to escaping the everyday. A change of scenery and a little adventure can make all the difference.

If adventure is what you’re seeking, fall is a good time to find it in Chattanooga.

Changing colors and cooler days make Chattanooga a natural starting point for time outside. Hike Lookout Mountain, explore Cloudland Canyon, or take the trail up Signal Mountain. When you arrive, ask the front desk for a few of our favorite local hikes.

The leaves are turning, the air’s gone crisp, and the Chalet is ready for it.

For a limited time, reserve our beloved historic Sleeper Deluxe train cars for up to 25% off and receive two complimentary cocktails to savor on the outdoor Caboose patio — plus a complimentary s’mores kit, ready to enjoy fireside once the sun goes down.

From lawn games at The Arbor to slow evenings by the fire, this is your invitation to après, Chalet-style. Visit the link in our bio to book our fall offer for stays through December 31.
