Why Paradise Meadows?
We are just 30 minutes from downtown Chattanooga; 2.5 hours from Atlanta, Nashville and Knoxville.
This is a “prepared place” where guests are welcomed into a space that is filled with beauty, order and creativity and has been prepared in prayer.
Our Farmhouse has a large greatroom that is perfect to host a group.
Accommodations are available if guests wish to stay over. There are three bedrooms in the Farmhouse and we have a Glamping Tent and Tiny House!
I (Lyn) am available to assist you as you plan your time away and will help with ideas, suggestions and resources.
Meeting Areas:
The very spacious greatroom in the Farmhouse is a perfect place for a group to meet. The large TV is ideal for presentations.
The kitchen is small, but fully equipped and available for simple meal preparation.
The two dining tables have space for 12 guests.
There are areas that can be used for group breakouts such as the screened porch.
Need places for individual quiet times? Our two Paradise Meadows properties are adjacent to each other (almost 10 acres) and are designed for relaxing. We have walking trails, comfortable hammocks in the trees and benches in the woods.
Additional Spaces:
We have fire pits at each of the “homes” that can be used at night. Annie Kei, our tiny van can be rented for a tea party, picnic or just as an additional place where guests can hang out.
Accommodations:
We are able to accommodate 10-12 guests in three very different (and beautiful) places on our Paradise Meadows property.
The Farmhouse- The photos of our Farmhouse bedrooms show king beds, but they can be split apart to be two twin XL’s with a bedside table in-between if guests need single beds. You can choose the Blue Room, The Peach Room or the Yellow Room!
The Tiny House- In the Tiny House one person can sleep in the queen loft bed, and one in the full bed on the ground floor. It is also suitable for one couple.
The Glamping Tent- In the tent, we have a king bed, a twin bed and a twin trundle. One guest will be in the king bed (who’s the lucky one?) and two on twin beds. (If you have a women’s group, you may have two women who are happy to share the king bed.)
Cost:
Please contact me (Lyn) to discuss the costs so that I can share the various options with you depending on number of days, time of the year, and number of guests you plan to bring.
You are welcome to share this information with family and friends who may be looking for a beautiful place to host an off-site or day retreat.
