This place is super cute! The owners have done a great job keeping the historical legacy while integrating modern amenities. The kitchen and bathrooms were updated and the beds were very comfortable. The home was very clean, and included things like board games and books. It is easily within walking distance to everything in Lieper's Fork, but it is quiet in the house. There is some traffic noise when sitting outside. The upstairs bedroom sleeps 3 comfortably and has a window unit AC to keep cool. Towels and bedding are clean and comfortable. In spite of being such an old building, we didn't see any bugs. Downstairs there is room for 3 comfortably, plus a fold out bed. They do keep items for cooking, but there are no containers for leftover food, and no plastic ware. Bring your dog! Make sure you bring dog bowls and plastic bags to pick up the waste.
There were 2 challenges for us:
In addition to washing dishes and taking out trash, be prepared to strip the beds and start washing the sheets before you leave. If you have to leave early in the morning, that is a little tricky, so just plan on extra time.
Also, I could not get ahold of the owners at all. They sent me several messages through VRBO, but never replied to any of mine. That was a problem for me because the upstairs bathtub was leaking and there was no way to get ahold of them.
So overall, a great stay, a cute house, and good proximity to Nashville and surrounding areas!
