About this property
Lake Cabin |30 miles from Nashville
The Lake Cabin at The Pilot Knob Retreat is loaded with historic charm and only 20 minutes from downtown Nashville! This two bedroom cabin sleeps up to 10 guests and is one of three properties on a quiet, private estate that was built in 1830.
On the main floor, you and your guests can gather in the living room for great conversation or game night, and there's plenty of room for everyone to eat a family-style meal around the big table in the eat-in kitchen.
The Lake Cabin sits on the back of the property and has a lake view from every room, a large back porch with rockers & a porch swing, access for canoeing, as well as outdoor seating, a fire pit, and grill—perfect for an evening under the stars!
At The Pilot Knob Retreat, we are proud to offer communal lake access for all the cabins. This means that every guest staying at our estate has the wonderful opportunity to enjoy and make unforgettable memories by the lake. Whether you're looking to swim, fish, or simply relax by the water, our communal lake access ensures that everyone can indulge in the natural beauty and serenity of the lake during their stay.
At The Pilot Knob Retreat , you'll find simplicity and sanctuary while being just minutes from Kroger Marketplace for all of your grocery needs, as well as Vietnam Veterans Blvd. for convenient access to nearby restaurants, stores, and activities.

Disliked: Location
One of very few VRBO’s available near Percy Priest lake. We rented due to this proximity. We knew the home was old however some updates would be appreciated such as replacing the old musty furniture, microwave and cracked burner on stovetop. It served our purpose.
