Early Thanksgiving With Family

The Ridge is a wonderful property. It was cozy and very clean. The scenery was beautiful, too. We loved the large kitchen, which made it easy to prepare food for our Thanksgiving meal. An added bonus were the Christmas decorations - including a lovely Christmas tree!!

Very spacious and well appointed with what you need. Stayed there during the remnants of hurricane helene which made travel more challenging but manageable. Secluded and quiet with plenty of room.

Excellent large property

Very well-maintained, clean, and equiped with all the basic necessities and more! We were all pleasantly surprised at the available amenities (games, puzzles, kitchen gadgets, cell phone chargers, internet speeds, etc). Proximity to Nashville and Yellowwood State Forest was ideal. Made quick trips out a breeze

Family Weekend in Brown County

This house is centrally located and was only 10-15 minutes from Nashville, Hard Truth distillery and Lake Lemon. All the beds slept great and the house was very clean. We really enjoyed the basement with the pool table and all the cool kids toys they had for all age ranges. We had a bonfire and made smores for the kids too. Had such a great time!!

Labor Day Get Away

We loved this property. It was exactly the kind of place we wanted for a two family weekend vacation. There were a couple issues that we wanted to share. Some of the outdoor furniture was not clean and a couple Adirondack chairs had broken slats. Bunk bed was unstable and top bunk had a broken slat and was not able to be used. Grill appeared non-functional.

Perfect family getaway

This cabin was perfect for the 6 of us and our 2 dogs. Loved the big yard and forest to explore, the hot tub, pool table, indoor and outdoor fires, hammock and variety of outdoor seating, spacious layout, and proximity to hikes/shopping. This cabin has everything you would have at your own home so you can pack light and enjoy the amenities…we especially appreciated the coffee maker with pods and flashlights (lost power one night due to high winds). We didn’t realize that there were only 3 bedrooms available with the price we paid, but we still had plenty of space. Thanks for a relaxing getaway!

Get Away From the City Life for awhile.

House was very nice, very roomy, clean and decorated nicely. The property was beautiful and had several patios to chose from and a fire pit. Seen several deers and box turtles. Love the town of Nashville, something for everyone and for all ages.

Quiet and Private

We only had 5 adults but this home could accommodate 8 comfortably … 3-1/2 baths made getting ready easy. Be careful on the hilly, curvy roads … one day a fast school bus about wiped us out! We played pool in basement, played cards in dining room, made few trips into Nashville, Bloomington and Brown County State Park. Would stay here again!

Weekend with college friends.

The space was perfect for us! We had a great weekend with college friends. Our 3 teen daughters enjoyed the amenities and there was plenty of space. Beds were super comfortable. My only complaint is that the house could use a good deep clean and some updates. Also, our friends said their shower in the main bedroom wasn’t draining properly. None of these issues was a deal breaker, though. Overall, great weekend.

Great trip

We had a great stay at The Ridge. The place was cozy and clean. Plenty of room for the 8 of us. Kids loved the hot tub and fire pit. Upon checking out we did notice a water leakage in the basement that needs repairing. The company said they would get it fixed. The only other areas for improvement would be better kitchen pans and spatulas and to clean up a couple of carpet stains in the bedrooms. Other than that everything was great. We would return for sure

Needs a deep clean

The cabin needs a deep clean. Windows, baseboards were filthy. Kitchen could use some items stocked. No full set of measuring cups, no large skillet. It showed a room with bunk beds but there weren’t any. Plenty of room and great location
