Perfect place to stay

This was the nicest house we've stayed at in Nashville. Very clean and Beautifully decorated. Love the Nashville decor! Newly renovated and very organized. Things were easy to find because of how everything had a place and the labels really helped. We went for the SEC basketball tournament and it was an easy and quick commute to downtown. We enjoyed walking around the neighborhood. It felt safe. We also enjoyed walking to the coffee place nearby. The beds were super comfortable and we slept great. I would definitely recommend and come back to stay here again.

This home is so beautiful, comfortable and well equipped that we didn’t want to leave. It’s a great location near everything in Nashville but on a quiet street.

PERFECT

This house is absolutely perfect, comfortable furniture and beds, lovely decor, clean and new appliances, super fast Wi-Fi, and a wonderful location with plenty of restaurants and shopping with a walkable distance (under a mile) and very easy to get downtown with rideshare. We were here for a game at Nissan Stadium and could not have been happier with both the house and the location. An additional bonus is having a fenced in front yard with the fact that it accepts dogs. 100% recommend, you will not be disappointed, it's like home away from home.

Perfect home! The decor is beautiful, home is clean, the hosts think of everything and every age. We enjoyed walking to several delicious restaurants and although we didn’t go downtown it was so close. Our fur baby loved the fenced area and sitting on the porch people watching.

Our goal is to simplify travel and ensure a memorable stay for our guests by providing plentiful amenities, clear communication and a variety of travel suggestions.

Our hosting journey began in 2016 and today, we own and host 6 short-term rental properties in Tennessee & Florida. Our guests enjoy staying at our rentals because:

Whether your travels lead you to the city, countryside, or coast, we are ready to welcome you! We’d be honored to be your hosts and hope our rentals become a cherished part of the memories you make during your own southbound stay in Tennessee or Florida.

Why they chose this property

The Country Cottage was our first vacation rental home! We, ourselves frequented the neighborhood because of the locally owned area businesses - dining, bars, shopping! The home was built in the 1920s and held so much historic charm. The street itself is in a historic overlay and we loved that the character of the neighborhood was intact without all of the new builds. We did our first interior renovation in 2016 but in 2022, we tackled an extensive restoration / renovation and took the home 'to the studs' while adding a bathroom and 2nd living room. The 9-month renovation allowed us to carefully curate everything in the home from the ground up and maintain its historical charm while offering modern amenities.
