When is the best time to go to Sunshine?

The best time to visit Sunshine, Tennessee, is during the spring (April to May) or autumn (September to October) when the weather is pleasant and comfortable for outdoor activities. During spring, the average daily temperatures range from 15°C to 25°C. This is a lovely time to explore the natural beauty of the region, as wildflowers are in bloom, and the landscapes are lush and green. It's ideal for those who enjoy hiking and exploring the numerous trails in the surrounding state parks. Autumn brings mild temperatures, typically between 10°C and 20°C, and spectacular displays of fall foliage. The changing colours of the leaves across the Tennessee hillsides are a major draw for visitors. This season is great for scenic drives and enjoying the cooler, crisp air. While summer (June to August) offers warm weather, with temperatures often reaching 30°C or higher, it can also be quite humid. Winter (November to March) is generally mild but can have occasional cold snaps and some snowfall, which might limit certain outdoor pursuits.

Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our ‘Fully refundable property’ filter during your search to find the right Sunshine hotel for you.

The Read House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great all around"

The Hotel Chalet at The Choo Choo

10/10 Excellent

"This is a great place to stay. This is a clean and well maintained hotel with a friendly and helpful staff. The lobby provides free water and has a coffee bar with pastries for sale every morning. There are several places to sit and talk both inside and outside. There is also a bar and restaurant, Elsie’s Daughter on site."

Days Inn by Wyndham Chattanooga Lookout Mountain West

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel. The only thing I missed was a do not disturb sign for the door. We wanted to sleep in a day and were woken up by the house keeper. She did understand and came back later after we had left for the day. Not a big deal but would have been nice to be able to sleep longer. Other then that no complaints."

Sonesta Select Chattanooga Hamilton Place

8/10 Good

"This hotel is very close to airport around 10min from Chattanooga airport, it’s modern in the reception area, the carpet in the room could do with a deep clean, and the window runners. Breakfast ends at 10.00 which was not enough time for me when on holiday. There is no lift so means lifting your luggage up stairs. So my overall rating is 4 stars good but needs more improvements. No room safe, so you have to take all your valuable with you every day."

Spark by Hilton Chattanooga Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"We were promptly greeted and given the room we asked for. The room was freshly painted and clean. We really appreciated the complimentary shampoo, conditioner and lotion- smelled so good. The steamer came in handy! The gym was well equipped and the breakfast has something for everyone. We enjoyed our stay."
