About this property

Comfortable Cottage Retreat 4 Bed/2 Bath - Close to Everything!

Welcome to our cheerful, family-friendly 1,600 sq. ft. Nashville home, a cozy retreat designed for comfort, connection, and memorable moments. Bright and welcoming throughout, the house offers ample free parking, TVs in every bedroom, and plenty of inviting spaces to relax after a day of exploring Music City.
We love hosting families and have thoughtfully provided kid-friendly essentials and conveniences to make traveling with little ones easy, comfortable, and stress-free.

One of our favorite features is the spacious sunroom, filled with natural light and complete with a bar and dining area, perfect for morning coffee or evening conversations. Step outside to enjoy the private deck and fully fenced backyard, where you can unwind, play games, or gather with loved ones in a peaceful setting.
Nestled on the border of the Woodbine and Glencliff neighborhoods, our home is ideally located just minutes from Nashville’s top attractions. Broadway is only a 10-minute drive, and you’ll be close to Nissan Stadium, Nashville Soccer Stadium, the Zoo, Adventure Science Center, Franklin, the airport and Opry Land. With easy access to major highways, getting around the city is a breeze.

We love this eclectic, family-oriented community and are excited to share our home while we travel. Inside, you’ll find a warm blend of rustic charm and mid-century style that flows seamlessly between indoor and outdoor living spaces. The bright front room opens into the fully windowed sunroom, offering lovely backyard views. Out back, the Southern-style covered deck invites you to relax with a game of darts, cornhole, or other family-friendly activities.

At the heart of the home is a well-equipped kitchen stocked with everything you need to cook comfortably. Labeled cupboards make it easy to find essentials, and you’ll enjoy amenities like a Keurig and traditional coffee maker, air fryer, food processor, blender, spices, and baking supplies. Complimentary coffee, tea, and ultra-fast 1,500 Mbps internet are included.

When it’s time to rest, you’ll have three cozy bedrooms plus a bonus space to choose from:
• King Bedroom: Spacious and sun-filled, located across from the main bathroom with a tub and shower.
• “The Pod” (Bonus Space): Tucked inside the king bedroom, this charming 8x10 ft. windowed room is ideal for kids or solo travelers, featuring a twin memory-foam bed, cedar-lined cubbies, and a luggage rack.
• Middle Bedroom: This cozy and functional room features a comfortable queen bed with a memory foam mattress, a mirrored closet, and a desk—perfect for working, reading, or relaxing. It also serves as our family-friendly hub, stocked with child necessities and a selection of kids’ toys, making it an ideal choice for families traveling with little ones.
• Fireplace Bedroom: A cozy retreat with an electric fireplace, firm queen spring mattress, private bathroom with walk-in shower, and laundry facilities.
Each bedroom is thoughtfully designed with sound machines, ceiling fans, and bathroom amenities to help ensure a restful, relaxing stay.

The private backyard is a guest favorite, offering both covered and open-air spaces for dining, games, and grilling on the Weber charcoal grill. Enjoy croquet, yard dice, frisbee, darts, ring toss, or simply relax and soak in the calm atmosphere.

For entertainment, every bedroom and living space includes a TV with access to DirecTV, Netflix, and Disney+. Smart lighting and security features help you feel safe and at home from the moment you arrive.

Additional amenities include:
• Complimentary coffee and tea
• Fresh bath towels and toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and more) and laundry pods.
• Kitchen staples and cleaning supplies
• Motion lighting in front of the house
• Smart lighting on the porch, living room, and sunroom.
• EV charging nearby, including a Tesla charger located at Kroger's.
• Ring doorbell at the front entrance and Blink cameras for safety.

Ride Services - There are multiple ride services in Nashville, such as Uber, Lyft, and Music City Taxi, that can get you where you need to go. We recommend downloading the apps so you can compare prices, as they often vary depending on the time of day, events, and demand. It’s best to book your ride in advance to ensure availability when you need it. Downtown Nashville can get especially busy in the evenings, so planning ahead helps make the experience less stressful and more enjoyable.

We enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean, comfortable, and easy to get to. The kitchen was well stocked with necessities for cooking (pots/pans/toaster, etc) and also had some spices and other staples. We ate dinner on the patio which was very nice and private. Instructions were very clear, like where to find extra blankets. Our host was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to our questions and accommodated our needs.

Best Short Term Rental

This was by far the best short term rental I've ever stayed in. The hosts were super responsive and accommodating. The house was well accommodated and comfortable for our group of 6. It had everything you would need and the back porch was great! We will definitely rent this house again.

We recently booked a stay while bringing our son to attend college orientation. It was close to downtown (10-20 minute drive depending on traffic) and to everything you would ever need. The host was very communicative and everything was as described. We look forward to staying here again!

Good location close to airport and easy access to Nashville

The house was perfect for three Vandy grads of 50 years to reunite. The location was an easy drive into downtown Nashville and 7 minutes from the airport. The quiet neighborhood was a welcome respite and the house was very well appointed. Quite comfortable and clean, sound machines in every room for good sleeping.The host was very friendly and accommodating.

Our best VRBO Yet

Such a wonderful stay. Host was communicative about everything from location, to pesticides to amenities. House was better than advertised and suited our family perfectly. Conveniently located without being right downtown. Host was even willing to mail a forgotten item. Highly recommend! Great for littles with kid toys, pack ‘n’ play, yard games, card/board games.

Fabulous VRBO! Lots of room, large bedrooms, great spaces to hang, and the backyard was awesome! Our host went above and beyond with all the small little amenities, instructions on how to use the TV, the remotes, things around town to do, etc. Next time in Nashville, I will definitely be back.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Papendieck

Host profile image
After living on the West Coast and in the Midwest we've found our home in Nashville. We love to travel and when we're exploring new places we open our home for our guests to enjoy. We are a family-friendly home and love hosting guests with children and working from home. We're dedicated to making sure our place is clean, comfortable, and relaxing with all the conveniences of home.

Why they chose this property

We like this area of Nashville for its proximity to downtown and its eclectic vibe. Our house is located in a quiet neighborhood where young couples, families, and long-term residents reside. Woodbine/Glencliff is not only known as home to up-and-coming musicians and artists, but it is also the center of Nashville's ethnic food scene, where you'll find the city's best Latin American, Ethiopian, Mediterranean, Asian, Korean, and Middle Eastern restaurants.

What makes this property unique

We love the roomy sunroom with a dining table that seats eight, a fold-out high stool that's perfect for small children, and a comfortable bar that overlooks a private backyard. You'll enjoy grilling your favorite meal and playing a game of darts while watching your kids play in the yard. It's a perfect place to celebrate the changing seasons.
