The patio door was very difficult to open. There is also a mouse problem, we had them in our chip bag, which was pretty gross. It’s a beautiful property. We enjoyed the game room, pool and hot tub.

Great place plenty to do
Really cool place to stay especially if you like being away from all the downtown stuff. Owners are great people and constantly like to hear feedback about things they can change to make things better as well.

First Nashville Trip
The cabin didn’t look much like the pictures. Much smaller and more compact. The mattresses were extremely hard on every bed. We were very disappointed that there were no TV’s in any of the bedrooms. We met Austin who lived in the game room area of the property. He walked to the cabin where we were at least twice to pick up Amazon packages that were left at the door. We met him on the day of our arrival and that was it. We had to ask what the code was for the game room in the barn. Good thing he was there. No heat in the game room so it was almost impossible to play in there when it was 30 degrees outside. I asked Austin about firewood for the indoor fireplace. He said the only wood they had was under 7 inches of snow. Of course the wood was wet and wouldn’t but. We had to go to a local hardware store and spend about 100 bucks on firewood. The hot tub was the best part of the property. The snow made the place beautiful outside. Overall I was disappointed.

A Tranquil Escape close to Nashville
Our recent stay in this Nashville cabin was an absolute delight. Tucked away in a serene location, the rustic charm of the cabin provided a perfect escape from city life. Upon entering, the cozy interior and tasteful decor immediately set a welcoming tone. The cabin was decorated so cute for the Christmas holiday. The fully-equipped kitchen and comfortable living space made for a seamless blend of modern convenience and rustic elegance. The basement was setup for games and the garage too! Plenty to do for adults and kids. The outdoor deck became a favorite spot, providing a picturesque setting to enjoy both morning coffee and evening stargazing. The hosting was exceptional, with thoughtful recommendations enhancing the overall experience. In summary, this beautiful cabin in Nashville exceeded expectations, offering a perfect balance of comfort and natural beauty. I highly recommend it for a refreshing and memorable getaway with friends or family.
