This is a unique property So much history and the cabin was huge and comfortable. We had a great time here with our family. While things are never perfect, we had a minor problem with the pool, but Bubba and Stacey responded quickly and took care of it - they were a wonderful couple and we enjoyed talking with them. If we are in the area again we will definitely consider one of these cabins.

Great retreat close to Nashville!

Our large family was in town for the Coldplay concert. We wanted a place to rest and play away from the hustle and bustle of Nashville. The manor house was the perfect escape! It had plenty of room for an extended family of 9 to spread out and relax. When we weren’t enjoying downtown (only a 30 minute drive), we were soaking in the clean and well kept pool. Owners weren’t needed, but were very responsive when texting with a question. Air conditioning worked great and saved the day on those hot TN days. Highly recommend.

Historic house with pool

This house is very pretty and well maintained for a historical house. Very time appropriate pieces in the home to make it feel cozy. We really like firm beds, they were firm and comfortable. The kitchen had all the items we needed to cook with which is not typical of vacation homes so this was a nice surprise. We loved using the pool and the back outdoor seating area was nice to relax at if you wanted to stay in the shade. The owners were very responsive to emails and got back to us quickly. Only half of the grill was working, but we did bring our travel blackstone so this was not an issue for us. I did let the owners know this and they said they were in the process of buying new grills which will be a great addition to the back porch area. All of the main rooms were comfortable, however the room next to the bedroom with 2 queens that is listed as a place for little kids to stay was extremely hot so this did not work out for my grandkids. They just made a "bed" downstairs in one of the sitting areas and this worked perfect for them. The downstairs bathrooms were great and the one bathroom off the room with bunk beds was great. We didn't really use the bathroom off the 2 queen beds room due to the heat and the tub/shower area is very short with a handheld shower head. The adults were too tall for this so they just shared a bathroom with one of the other couples. When in the Nashville area with our entire family we will definitely stay here again. We really enjoyed our stay!
