About this property

Private, Quiet, Cottage Retreat 10 minutes to downtown Nashville

Close enough to everything but also far enough away to provide a restful retreat. 3 room cottage has a private bedroom as well as a full size sleeper sofa in the living room. Neighborhood is close to airport but only 7 miles from downtown. There is second, larger house on the property, rented to a wonderful family of four. We are in a safe, quiet neighborhood but still close enough to everything wonderful Nashville has to offer. Pets are most welcome with a $50 nonrefundable per pet fee. Smoking is 100% not permitted inside the cottage. There will be a $200.00 fine if smoking occurs inside the property.

Good host and great communication. Nice quiet neighborhood in a convenient location to downtown. If you are a light sleeper, there is a very loud AC window unit that rattles in the bedroom. However, we did very much enjoy our stay and the cottage was nice.

The cottage was very clean and quaint. It is very close to the airport but the A/C units drowned out the jet noise. It was a perfect location for us for this trip and there were flowers planted in the window boxes and it was just a great little spot.Highly recommend!!

Very cute and clean. Everything was just as described. My only complaint would be is it kinda smelled “stale”. Other than that it was very clean & quiet. The bed was comfortable. There is no kitchen but does have a mini fridge, microwave and Keurig machine with coffee pods. It was in a nice little neighborhood and close to everything. I would stay again.

Cute little cottage. Beds were comfortable and it was very clean. AC units were a bit loud but that’s to be expected and there was some noise from the airport. We were able to explore Nashville with just a short drive to most places, very convenient. Would stay again!

The pictures a little deceiving not really private considering it is in the back of the other property and the driveway is all rocks and not a lot of area to let your animal out and the ac unit was extremely loud in the bedroom , there were a lot of dead bugs around when we checked in . communication with property owner was top notch the ammenities and property was just mediocre

I think overall it was a good stay. The heating/AC was a little tricky to manage, but we got it sorted.You will need to bring sheets if you want to use the pull-out sofa bed. We didn't think of that before we left home.

We had great communication with Ben and were unaware he had no access to bed linens. We feel terrible and wish we had known so we could have provided them for his stay.

Love the location! So easy to get to any part of Nashville. Worked out great for the dogs and we appreciated the pet friendly environment. The cottage is cute and very clean. The kitchen doesn't have a sink which is a little inconvenient but we did enjoy our stay. Dave is very friendly and a considerate host. A nice place to stop in Nashville.

Picture of cottage is no longer accurately depicted, linens were grungy and had holes in them. Ants were all over, coffee available to guests expired 2021. No kitchen sink, had to wash them in bathroom sink. Smelled musty. Good location and easy check in.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 April 2026
We are grateful that Jodi chose to stay at our cottage and deeply saddened over the issues she experienced. We have gone over Jodi’s review with our cleaning crew. I have carefully gone through our linen supply and removed a torn sheet as well as a couple other pieces that had make up stains. We have alerted our pest control company about the ant issue, not at all uncommon this time of year, and they have doubled their spraying efforts on the outside perimeter. The out of date Maxwell House coffee was a secondary option to the advertised Keurig products, and has safely been disposed of. Nowhere, in either the pictures or the written description of our cottage, is a kitchen sink advertised. We would very much have appreciated knowing about these issues during Jodi’s stay, or at least before she submitted a review, as we would have acted to address them immediately going as far as to offer a reasonable refund

About the host

Hosted by David Ray

Host profile image
My wife and I lived in Nashville for many years and fell in love with the vibrancy of the city. With so many places to visit, wonderful restaurants, and events to enjoy we wanted to share the city with travelers.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it was an is a safe neighborhood for children. We started our family in the larger house on the property and felt very confident that young children won’t have a wonderful time experiencing the neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

This is a private, standalone building. While there is a larger house on the property, you are completely isolated with maximum privacy.
