STRP Permit #CASR-201517041
Music City River Retreat is hidden away on a residential street less than a mile from The Grand Ole Opry, Opryland Resort and Convention Center, Opry Mills Mall and great restaurants and bars. You won't even realize how close to the action you are when you are relaxing watching the river and the wildlife in the yard. It is a two story house with an open floor plan that includes the family room, kitchen and eating area. This area has real hardwood floors and is great for entertaining. There is a 52 inch flat screen TV above the gas fireplace in the family room with bose speaker surround sound, cd player, HD cable, blu ray player and WIFI internet connection. The Master Bedroom and a small bedroom are downstairs and there are two bedrooms upstairs. A scene from the film 'Lukewarm' with John Schneider and Jet Jurgensmeyer was filmed here in 2012. The house was also featured in a weather channel show called 'Twist of Fate', season 1 episode 6 and 'The Ellen Show' about the 2010 Nashville Flood.

Quiet getaway perfect for all ages

One of the most surprising things was how quiet it was. Even though it's really close to major attractions and a huge mall, it is super quiet! We went in late December and caught fish every day from the dock. We enjoyed the game room - the variety of games is amazing and serves all ages. The hosts are extremely nice and kind, were incredibly communicative, and are probably the best hosts of anywhere we've stayed. Definitely recommend!!

Excellent stay in the Music Valley!

We had an incredible stay at this home away from home for bachelor party weekend. The mini garage arcade was a big hit and the location on the river provided an excellent background for our weekend. The hosts were incredibly helpful with any questions and made sure we were set for our stay. Highly recommend to anyone looking to explore all of Nashville!

Roomy stay very close to Opryland

We had family that wanted to see daughter compete at dance nationals held at Gaylord. It was 5 minutes away and home accommodated everyone who came. We could stay and play in the pool, game room, or even on the river. Close to the mall with lots of food options, airport and downtown. Great VRBO!

Nashville Girls Golf Trip

The property was very comfortable and the hot tub was perfect after a day on the golf course. The game room was so much fun! The location to Opryland was very convenient and an Uber was under $10 if you need a ride. Getting the kayaks to the river is a bit of an adventure - but doable even for a group of 60 something women. We would absolutely stay here again!

This place is nothing short of amazing!

Adult family vacation & we’ve stayed at a number of VRBO homes in a variety of locations. We were so impressed with the location, the view (stunning), & the home amenities. We all especially enjoyed the game room in the garage, the kayaks, & hot tub. Lots of room, well stocked & the owners are very supportive. We would highly recommend this home to anyone who wants to enjoy the Nashville nightlife without the hustle & bustle of staying downtown.

Hosts were very good to our needs, and answered every questions we had about the house.

It has just about everything one needs, just like your own house. There were a lot of board games, cards, arcade machines, outside games to keep minors busy and for that fact adults too. Kitchen was well stocked, house well clean. it would better stocked with more Bath towels due to pool and Hot Tub use plus showers.

Easy to rent through. However it was sticker shock with the added fees. Those fees added about 27% more to the rent rate. Seemed high.

Beautiful House on Beautiful Property!

There were 10 of us in total and we all had a blast! We absolutely loved the pool and the back patio overlooking the river! We took full advantage of the kayaks and the game room! The owners were always very quick to respond to any questions that we had. There was enough room so that we never felt on top of each other. The beds were very comfy and the bedrooms were all a great size. Would definitely stay here again if we return to Nashville! A great big thank you to Anne and Bill for a fabulous family vacation!

Hidden Quiet Gem with easy access to all!

We stayed at the Music City River Retreat to celebrate our son’s 21st Birthday. We are so happy we settled on this house. The location and amenities of the house were incredible. We felt more like we were on a secluded mountain retreat than a mile to the Grand Ole Opry or a short drive to Broadway. We enjoyed every morning on the back porch drinking coffee, reading books and watching the birds. We spent our free time fishing from the dock, kayaking on the river, playing in the game room, lounging in the hot tub or enjoying a movie together snuggled on the huge sectional in the living room. The beds were comfortable & we all slept well after our long days enjoying Nashville & the surrounding areas. The shower in the master bedroom with the rainfall shower head was so relaxing. The house could benefit from a bit of TLC plus organization of the provided supplies (games, kitchen supplies, game room all had a ton of provided items but there was no rhyme or reason to where things were stored so we were constantly opening cupboards trying to find what we needed). Communication with the owners was prompt & helpful. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here on any future trips we take to Nashville!

About the host

Hosted by Bill and Anne Crousser

Host profile image
Bill and I have been married for 10 years and have lived in the Donelson area for 15 years. We designed and built this house in 2008 and have really enjoyed raising our kids here. We have also owned and operated a licensed locksmith company for over five years in this area. We know that anyone that stays here will be able to build great memories with their friends and families.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this area of Nashville because it is so close to everything. We have both always loved the water and just love relaxing on the back porch watching the river.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this property because of the beauty of the river. We bought the land then designed and built the house in 2008. It is a country setting in the heart of the city.
