It was a great place to come home to after busy days of hiking and exploring downtown Nashville. We enjoyed playing games on the deck and finishing our evenings cozied up inside with family movie nights. It was spacious enough to not be tripping over each other but still kept our family together for quality time. ##### Carrie C.

Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hugh R. 9 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful days Away The Rustic Retreat was a little ways outside of Nashville in the neighborhood of the Story Inn, an old inn from 1851\. The Retreat was clean, well stocked with cookware and utensils, and just the right size for the three of us. The deck is shared with the neighbors, but plenty large for us to make S'mores and enjoy the peace and quiet and the beauty of the area. Just a 15 minute drive to downtown Nashville and about a 12 minute drive to the North entrance of Brown County State Park, Rustic Retreat is out of the way in a good way, but close enough for plenty of family activity. ##### Hugh R.

Area had a lot of snow the evening of checkin, but we had 2 meals at the Story Inn and one in the kitchenette. Got a little shopping done in Nashville once the roads were cleared. And of course enjoyed the sauna! A slightly snowbound trip but beautiful and low key and enjoyable. Would book again if I’m in the area, maybe a different season since I’ve done winter twice now… ##### Tracy M Z.

My husband and I attended a rehearsal dinner on a Friday evening at Hard Truth and a wedding on Saturday evening in the country of brown county- it’s was a no kids allowed wedding so we brought my mother in law with us! It was plenty big for all 5 of us and they took lots of hikes and walks down to Story while we were gone. The whole property and town is simply enchanting. The cabin space was immaculate and they had all the amenities you could need. We all felt secure and safe. 10/10\. Can’t wait to book our next stay! ##### Brent M.

We usually rent camp off the motorcycles, but with the weather being a little unpredictable and still pretty chilly at night we decided to rent a cabin instead. It was clean and comfortable with lots of thoughtful touches by the owners. It was in a beautiful wooded setting overlooking the Story Inn. We were glad we rented the unit with the stove because places to eat are a little limited especially early in the week since it’s not peak tourism season for the area. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for simple meals including some staples like olive oil, salt & pepper, etc. We will definitely consider staying there again. ##### Keri Kei S.
