    "I enjoy the history of the area, the schools are good in Catoosa county, and it’s outside Chattanooga, TN which North America’s first National Park city. This area is also placed between Atlanta, Knoxville, and Nashville within a 1.5-2 hour drive. "

    "I have lived in the area most of my life (I'm 37). Fort Oglethorpe is a great area for a family and pets. There are plenty of walking areas available. Access to Chickamauga National Park is awesome and provides lots of trails for hiking, biking, or just enjoying a family picnic. The recent and continued addition of shopping centers make this growing area and excellent place to be for convenience. However, you still have the small town feel with plenty of locally owned shops in the area. The schools are great. I know this sight rates them as "meets standard". But, you're kids will get out of it what you as parents put into it. And, the schools are quality schools. Also, there are plenty of churches and other community activities in the area. You seldom lack for anything to do!"

    "My mother lived in this house for many years before the current owner and I lived there too for a short time before I married and moved out. It is a wonderful house for a family. Our Christmas celebrations there were unforgettable and so wonderful. The grandchildren loved all the different spaces it had to explore. It has an old fashioned cozy kind of feel. It was great when we lived there and it was completely renovated by the individual who bought it from my mother. It is even better now than when I lived there. It's a great place to make memories."
