We had a great time in this fabulous home! The location was perfect for our girls weekend in Nashville! Plenty of room with comfortable beds and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. We sat out on the huge back porch in the mornings with coffee and the evenings with drinks. John was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed! Don’t hesitate to book this home…perfect!

This is a great house for a large group. When we arrived I was a bit taken aback by how old the house seemed and was a bit disappointed. Then I met the owner and realized that he actually built the house in 2009 using all reclaimed materials. Gave me a true appreciation for the place It is located along a beautiful remote stretch of the Cumberland River, yet is only 5 minutes from Opryland and 15 minutes from downtown. The view from the back porch is amazing The only glitch we had was cold showers on day 1, but the owner came right over and made an adjustment and showed us how to work them which really helped. As advertised , there are only two full bathrooms, making showers a bit challenging for a large group. But we made it work. Great place and a great stay !!

This place was great. It had proximity to major attractions, relaxing outdoor spaces (fire pit, fishing off the dock, boat and birdwatching, reading on the porch), a hot tub room overlooking the river, and decor like staying in a dollhouse. The kitchen was well stocked, as were the bathroom basics like towels and toilet paper. The place was very clean and communication with the host was stellar. This was the most unique rental property I have stayed in, and I would certainly recommend it to anyone.

This is our second year to stay a few days in this beautiful home. We, 8 of us this year and 12 last year, just throughly enjoy the location on the river and the proximity to the Gaylord resort. It is so convenient to be able to go back and forth between the house and the venue.

We are John and Sandee Cox and we have been married for 38 years and have six children and two grandchildren. Originally we are from Texas and have lived in Nashville for 23 years. I am a singer songwriter and have a remodelling company and built this house in 2009 doing most of the work myself. My wife, Sandee, is a doula. We are excited to share our slice of heaven with you.

Why they chose this property

Because its stunning to watch the river roll by. It also feels like you are in a different world yet everything is super close by. Its so much easier to make beautiful memories if you are in a beautiful place!

What makes this property unique

We built this home ourselves in 2009 and we love antiques. That is why every piece has a story. It really is like stepping back in time. 1 KING BED,, 3 QUEEN BEDS,, 4 TWIN BEDS,, ALL WITH MEMORY FOAM MATTRESSES,, ALSO A TANKLESS HOT WATER HEATER..!!! A masseuse is available at request!!!
