About this property
Retroville – A Cozy, Family- & Pet-Friendly Retro Retreat with no cleaning fee!
Welcome to Retroville, a clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed retro home that blends 50s–70s charm with modern comfort. Guests consistently tell us it feels like home—and many come back again and again.
With a central location in the heart of Murfreesboro, it's an easy walk to MTSU (1/2 mile), City Square (1 mile), or many of the great shops & restaurants that the Boro has to offer. Only a 28-mile commute to BNA! Luxury bedding for R&R after a long day of Nashville fun! Relax by the fire pit in the large, shared, quiet back yard. Lots of parking and wifi. Whether you’re traveling with kids, pets, or just want a relaxing, character-filled stay, Retroville delivers a warm, welcoming experience you won’t forget.
*Pet Stay Fee is $15/per Night/per Pet*crate policy applies
What Guests Love Most
Comfort & Cleanliness
* Exceptionally clean, well-maintained space
* Super comfortable beds and linens—many guests mention sleeping really well
* Cozy, relaxing vibe perfect for unwinding after a long day
Unique Retro Style
* Fun, charming mid-century / Jetsons-style decor
* Thoughtful vintage touches throughout (this is a highlight, not just décor!)
Family-Friendly Details
* Bunk room stocked with games and toys
* Small but meaningful touches for traveling with kids
* Safe, cozy environment that families say their children don’t want to leave
Pet-Friendly
* Pets are truly welcome—not just allowed
* Many guests say their dogs loved the space just as much as they did
Fully Stocked & Thoughtful
* Well-equipped kitchen
* Extra towels and washcloths
* On-site laundry
* Easy check-in and responsive hosts
* Arrival details like lights left on so you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in
Location
* Quiet, cute neighborhood
* Convenient to downtown, restaurants, shopping, and major routes
* Feels private while still being close to everything
Important Details to Know (Please Read)
We believe clear expectations create great stays:
* This home is located on a property with another rental unit close to the back of the home.
*The upstairs apartment is occupied by a quiet renter, therefore quiet hours from 10pm-7am are strictly enforced.
* Laundry is shared and located in a room attached to the main house. On rare occasions, another guest may access the laundry area via the back porch.
If complete isolation or total privacy from neighboring guests is essential for you, this may not be the perfect fit—and we want you to choose a place you’ll truly love.
Retroville is best suited for:
✔ Families
✔ Pet owners
✔ Guests who appreciate character and charm
✔ Travelers who value comfort, cleanliness, and thoughtful hosting
Hosting With Care
We are known for being highly responsive, communicative, and proactive hosts. If you ever need anything during your stay, we’re quick to help and genuinely want you to have a great experience. We’d love to host you and help make your stay memorable!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Dana and Jonathan
My family is made up of native Nashvillians, and the rest of us have grown up here. We've seen Nashville change from a quiet country town, to a busting metropolis that we scarcely recognize every time we visit downtown!
Our family loves traveling and visiting new places and especially other cultures! We also love movies (with one student in college for art, and the other studying film both at local universities)! Our youngest is still figuring out what he wants to do (for he has time), and he would love to talk to you about it if you give him the chance! :)
Our hosting personalities are to give you a peaceful, clean, and comfortable place to relax and spend time with families, whether you are visiting our great city or needing a place to stay because of home renovation or in town for work! We are happy to host you and look forward to a no drama and no surprises fees after you book or leave! As long as you treat our homes well, we are more than happy to treat you well!
We look forward to hosting you!!

Why they chose this property
The neighborhood is so diverse and exciting! With sidewalks along most streets, it's a great neighborhood to walk around and so much to see! It's less than a mile to MTSU, a beautiful walkable campus, close to MTSU town square shops, and a lovely community garden as well! We love the area, and hope you will as well!
What makes this property unique
It's a lovely renovated home, with so many original features we've tried to keep or refinish. It's difficult to pinpoint a favorite part!
