"Nothing"

Salt Creek Inn

"Our stay went well. We got by even though it was hard to get ahold of the staff by phone. Our room was clean and had a fridge and microwave but we took a portable coffee maker. Overall I would recommend it as being a little secluded yet close to everything, within minutes."

8/10 Good

"The place was nicely decorated, very clean and close to Nashville.The host was friendly and the dogs were extremely friendly.The only issue we had was the description said "entire house", when actually we were in a finished basement, and the hosts lived upstairs with the dogs. Unfortunately, the dogs liked to prance around on the hard floors at 7 o'clock in the morning."
