Chattanooga Valley homes offer proximity to Chattanooga and Lookout Mountainbout
Flintstone begins where Tennessee ends, tucked into the Georgia foothills of Lookout Mountain along the rolling landscape of the Chattanooga Valley. Residents are not only treated to scenic vistas of the Appalachian Mountains but also the quiet living of a semi-rural town with quick access to golf courses, historic sites and a vibrant downtown.
“This area is ideal for buyers looking for a rural home with a few acres but much privacy. It’s also a quick commute to Chattanooga,” says Kurt Olson, Realtor with Keller Williams Downtown Chattanooga. “Golfers are also drawn to the Chattanooga Valley, as we’ve got several beautiful courses with practically unbeatable views.” It’s also favored by those who want a short commute to Chattanooga and the most for their investment in a single-family home.
Hiking, biking, golf and camping are a way of life in the Chattanooga Valley
Flintstone offers countless opportunities to get outdoors and explore. It’s just minutes away from the famed Rock City Gardens on Lookout Mountain, but peak tourism can make the area quite busy. The Lula Lake Land Trust is a 12,000-acre conservation area established in 1994 that includes forested hiking and biking trails, two distinct waterfalls and historic sites dating back thousands of years.
Cloudland Canyon State Park offers a deep gorge with breathtaking views and multiple waterfalls. The Lookout Mountain Club has an 18-hole championship golf course, tennis and pickleball courts, a pool and plenty of social events. Golfers at the recently built McLemore Golf Course enjoy playing the game “above the clouds,” as the owners boast.

Split-level homes also come in handy for a rolling landscape, but on flatter ground, buyers can find cute cottages, often influenced by the Craftsman style. In the last decade, newer properties have been popping up in small subdivisions, featuring contemporary home styles with classic features.
