The lack of TV (although it is clearly in our listing) has gotten us several less than stellar ratings. Even so, we stand firm in our decision to keep TV out of both of our listings. It is our intention to provide a different kind of experience for our guests, one more like our families experienced growing up in the 80's and before, where attentiveness to one another, quiet, and nature were more commonly appreciated. The only TV in the house is a very small vintage one available to watch the vintage media that is provided. Our home has been recently updated, while still trying to keep a feel from the not-so-distant past. Enjoy the quiet neighborhood from the covered front porch, sunroom, or large rear deck from where the birds and small wildlife can be experienced. Experience the vintage books in every room. Large living room with piano and vintage media (CD's, VCR, cassette tapes, and records) and ways to play them. Board games and puzzles in dining room. Each bedroom furnished with it's own desk for study or reading. Cookbooks in kitchen, National Geographic Magazines, encyclopedias, and educational books in living room, health, garden, and crafts books in 'Mom's' room, pastoral books in 'Dad's' room, and miscellaneous books in 'Sibling's' room. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Music library - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Gym - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 1,874 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, stovetop, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/60000000/59860000/59859700/59859607/7fdba62e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming cottage, minutes from Cummins Falls and downtown Cookeville, TN.

It was a great venue to stay at. It's only an hour and a half away from Nashville so you can get to the city quickly and enjoy the city during the day and enjoy the small town during the night. The only "downside" was a small leak in the shower head, but honestly, it did not bother me at all. It was a great spot that makes you feel like home! ##### Kaylor H.

As we are caretakers of my Mom and I work at home. It was quite and it was easy access to town. For the most part it was clean and tidy. However I did have to clean the bathtubs. We did miss having a TV as well. Overall we enjoyed our stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Carole E. 2 Sept 2025 Liked: Location Home has a interesting history, filled with many books and mementoes from the family. When we arrived there were two garbage can's outside, overflowing with stinky garbage. (Not sure if trash pickup was missed, but the smell was bad) The lawn was extremely long and overgrown. The listing stated a vintage tv, the tv was a small old tv with no way to connect to live TV, the listing should state "no live TV available", we were under the impression it was a TV with the ability to watch. They have many record albums with a turntable, but the turntable needs a needle. In the kitchen, old rusty pans with loose handles, the coffee pot had old water and a old coffee filter with grounds in in. The toaster did not work, without holding the handle down. There are no bath mats in either bathroom, dangerous getting out of tub, slippery. There was one old blow dryer in one of the bathrooms, there should be blow dyers in each bathroom. Nice beds, overall pretty clean home. ##### Carole E. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ---
