About this property

Cricket by the Creek - Creek, Trails, Pool, Kayaks

The Place
Cricket by the Creek is a shabby chic, 396 sq ft, tiny home atop Lookout Mountain with its own creek access. We created this tiny home experience to give you a weekend away from your busy life, to unplug and have an unforgettable connection with nature. The home is located within a tiny home community called Little River Escape which has many amenities for you to enjoy during your stay: pool, pool house, river and lake access, hiking trails throughout, a gym, and fire pits by the river.

The Space
Cricket by the Creek takes glamping to another level. Enjoy your morning coffee watching the Pileated Woodpeckers and deer roam through the woods from your own private creek overlook. It is a short walk to the common area where the pool and East Fork of the Little River are located within the community for you to enjoy swimming and kayaking. Desoto State Park (15min), Sloppy Floyd State Park (25min), Cloudland Canyon State Park (30min), and Little River Canyon (40min) are a short drive away to explore waterfalls, fish, and hike the area.
