My daughters 30th birthday party with 8 of the closest women in here life. The cabin was so beautiful and the yard was absolutely incredible. Everything was clean and worked perfectly. Everything you need to prepare dinner in the kitchen, we enjoyed the lower level of the house most with all the games. Thank you for making this trip amazing

Lovely outdoor area
The cabin was in a great location for proximity to Nashville and brown county state park. The cabin was very nice. The backyard with fire pit and cornhole was very fun. Our issues were that the kitchen had no place for storage of food we brought and the pans and cooking utensils weren’t great for the number of guests. These were minor inconveniences and not a reason we would not revisit. Also we had to call the host for a tech issue and she responded very quickly.

Excellent Property
The house was updated, clean, spacious, and comfortable. The outdoor areas were amazing (hot tub, fire pit, covered porches). We were there in December and the firehouse across the street had a huge Christmas decorated area you could walk through. We were close to the main strip, so it was convenient. Our stay was perfect!

So, come, be our guest, and let the allure of Helmsburg Station sweep you away on a journey through time and comfort. Your escape to this extraordinary retreat is not just a stay—it's a promise of unforgettable moments and cherished memories.

Why they chose this property


Being true Brown County natives, we carry in our hearts the inherent charm and beauty that define this special place. Our intimate knowledge of the area allows us to present a property that not only offers breathtaking views but also encapsulates the tranquility of the countryside. And here's the magic—while reveling in the peace of rural landscapes, you're just moments away from the vibrant energy and excitement of Nashville.

This property serves as a gateway to the best of both worlds. Imagine waking up to panoramic views that stretch across the countryside, a symphony of nature as your soundtrack. Yet, with super easy access, you can seamlessly transition to the lively atmosphere of Nashville, where fun and activities await. It's not just a stay; it's an immersion into the dual essence of Brown County—serenity and excitement, all in one extraordinary package. Welcome to the perfect blend of peaceful retreat and convenient adventure!

What makes this property unique

Step into the enchanting embrace of history at our historic gem, a time-traveling haven from the year 1906. In the heart of Brown County, where few properties have been salvaged from such a bygone era, our oasis stands as a testament to preservation and countryside charm, away from the hustle and bustle of town life. What makes it even more unique is the meticulous remodeling we undertook in 2019, starting from the bare essentials of a dirt floor and exterior walls.

The challenge? Restoring this vintage beauty while seamlessly blending old-world charm with the comforts of the modern age. Yet, we believe the result will capture your heart. Our love for this property runs deep—we've invested not just in its restoration but in creating an extraordinary outdoor space. Picture yourself under the stars, surrounded by the warmth of a fire pit or the bubbling hot tub.

As you explore, don't miss the subtle details—the front of the house often graced by the presence of an eagle perched on a tree branch, keeping a keen eye on a hidden pond across the road. This home, a labor of love and dedication, holds a special place in our hearts. It's not just a rental; it's an invitation to share in the magic of a place where history, nature, and modern comfort converge. And did we mention, it's one of the rare rentals in the area that can comfortably accommodate up to 10 people? Come, let our favorite be yours too, and create memories with your friends and family that will last a lifetime.
