Good morning, Chattanooga!
While Chattanooga may have lost a few residents for a year to Airbnb’s “Live Anywhere on Airbnb” promotion as Stephanie Hays and her family jet-set across the world, we also gained a set of visitors from the same program.
At the recommendation of Hays, Maryland residents Lindsey Miller-Voss, her 14-year-old daughter, Anna Miller, and mother, Bev Howard, found themselves in a Chattanooga Southside Airbnb for more than a month.
“As we kept researching, we said, ‘OK, Chattanooga has a little bit more going for it.’ To be honest, we were surprised. At least every other week we look at [one] another and say, ‘Oh my gosh, do we need to move to Chattanooga?’ We are really loving it,” Miller-Voss said. “This has been our favorite stay so far.”
