We travel a lot. This was one of the accommodations that we will absolutely return. Wonderful stay. We were there for the state basketball championship and it felt almost like we had a home away from home. The convenience to the glass house was unmatched.

Just arrived home from a fabulous mini-vacation at this sweet cottage in downtown Murfreesboro. Loved the gated parking area and fenced yard, the hot tub was perfect on this chilly vacation. We enjoyed all the rooms, and the beds were spot on, with firm mattresses! Convenient location to shopping, and such, although we fixed most of our meals during our stay, instead of eating out. There are plenty of TV's in the home, so you can watch everywhere. It was the perfect getaway. Thank you!

We had an amazing stay at this Vrbo in downtown Murfreesboro. The historic vibe of the place was exactly what we were hoping for—you can really tell the owners put thought and care into preserving the charm while still making everything comfortable. The antique furniture was a highlight and made the space feel so unique and full of character.The bathrooms were also fantastic—especially the master shower. The dual shower heads were such a treat, the water pressure was great, and it heated up quickly and stayed nice and hot. It felt like a little luxury while still fitting the historic feel of the home.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone wanting a cozy, charming place right in the heart of town.

What a beautiful place to stay! The area was quant and walkable. The house was larger than we were expecting, allowing for plenty of room for people to “spread out” and relax when needed. The house was stocked well, and the host was available for questions We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back/recommend to friends and family!

About the host

Host profile image
We enjoy this journey together amidst the curve balls and bits of chaos. We have six children and are fortunate that some help us with our AirBnb. We enjoy hosting and meeting new people, traveling and experiencing different countries and cultures. We are thrilled to be learning this new real estate and hospitality industry. Our hope is that our enthusiasm will show in our guests experiences.

Why they chose this property

The history of the city and the charming neighborhood stole our hearts. The historic aspects of the homes and charming town square, the mature landscape and most importantly the neighbors we are so grateful to call friends.

What makes this property unique

Our historic cottage stands on the grounds of an iconic estate built by the Darrow Family formerly of Oaklands Mansion. The cottage was originally located on Main Street and later moved to its location. Through the decades it has stood the test of time adding charm to the neighborhood. The cottage has been added onto and renovated with a tasteful mix of period pieces boasting modern conveniences.
