About this property

Peaceful Home On A Hill In Cookeville, Tennessee

Quiet street located on a dead end street so no through traffic. There are so many birds to watch including the beautiful red Cardinals and their mates. All new furniture with all new mattresses. Since I love Nashville and music I have done a music theme in the home I am from Bakersfield, CA so you will see Merle Haggard and Buck Owens' album covers on the wall. Also from Robert's Western World in Nashville Brazil Billy. Vince Gill and Paul Franklin with their Bakersfield Sound covers. My property is located 73.8 miles from Nashville Airport 1hr 13 minutes. The home is conveniently located right off I 40 but not close enough to hear any traffic noise. So after you enjoy Broadway and all Nashville has to offer plan on coming to Cookeville and enjoy the Cummins Falls State Park, 3 minute drive to City Lake which has 2 waterfalls and is a great hiking area, Dogwood Park, Hidden Hollow Park, Cookeville Depot Museum, Tennessee Legend Distillery and Red Silo Brewing Company, Hix Farm Brewery, Cookeville History Museum. Home is located 1.8 miles from Lanes Bend a popular wedding venue. Our home is located 2.21 hours to Dollywood, 1.37 hours to Knoxville when traffic is good. Many great restaurants my favorite Cracker Barrel and Cheddar's and many more. Instead of having the travelers pay $59.00 for a non refundable damage insurance policy I have a $700.00 refundable damage deposit. I just added this note on 1/10 2025 all my guests through VRBO have been great and I have in 3 years of hosting never had to deduct damage from the refundable deposit. If you choose to pay the non refundable insurance cover of $59.00 I can remove the refundable damage deposit. On my other houses that I have hosted for 15 years the guests who elect to pay the refundable damage deposit 99.9 % of the time those guests get the whole amount refunded within a couple of days when the cleaner goes in and tells me all is in good shape. If you damage anything or leave stains on bedding that won't wash out the cost of replacement will be deducted. If you are traveling with pets there is $100.00 plus tax per pet. Please answer the question that you will have a pet when making the reservation so VRBO collects the fee at the time of booking. If traveling with additional pets message me that you are. The additional fee will be requested. There is a completely fence huge backyard also a dog kennel.
There is a Ring Door Bell Camera located by the front exterior door. I captures motion from cars diving up the drive way and activity on the front lawn and at the front door if someone rings the bell the Ring Chime sounds are dogs barking and the Chime is plugged in by the bar. There are no internal cameras in the house.

Wonderful home and wonderful host

The home was clean, charming, and in a great location. Access was easy and there were clear instructions for just about everything throughout the home. We didn't find ourselves wanting for anything during out stay. Carol was very communicative and went way above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. Our family truly appreciated it!

Clean and Quiet

This home was incredibly clean and the perfect place for us to stay. We were visiting family in the area, so didn't spend any daytime at this house, but sleeping there was quiet and comfortable. We could have used more blankets, as we weren't supposed to used the decorative comforters and not every room had extra covers, but overall beds were comfortable. I would definitely stay there again and recommend to others!

Great Family Home

We were looking for a family home to stay at that could hold six adults comfortably that was close to a wedding venue and this home fit that bill. One of our favorite things was to listen to the birds while having a cup of coffee on the back porch where we saw a deer. The home was very clean, it included the washer and dryer and the property owner was very helpful.

We enjoyed our family stay at this 3 bdrm, 2 full bath ranch home on a hill in a nice neighborhood. The kitchen includes a nice selection of cookware. Washer and dryer worked well. The house was perfectly clean. Easy access not far off 111 or I40. Excellent communication with the owner. Will book again next time we have a need near Cookeville.

Carol was very friendly and kind, her place accommodated my family perfectly. It was beautiful, very peaceful, and we enjoyed all of nature around us. My husband and I spent most of our time on the covered back patio listening to the birds sing! If your looking for a Gem away from the city.. this is your place! ENJOYYYY!

About the host

Hosted by Carol Knapp

Host profile image
I am retired from banking after 35 years.I manage two 5 star beach houses in California and my other passions are buying Manuel Cuevas rhinestones and embordered jackets of which I have 10. Of course I bought them discounted. I love visiting Manuel's shop in Nashville. My biggest joy is family and spending precious time with my only grandchild. I also thrive to give my guests a 5 star stay.

Why they chose this property

This property is a relaxing place to stay while traveling through Tennessee. Only 4 miles from town center. A little over an hour's drive to Nashville. About 90 minutes drive to Knoxville. The more I am back there the more I love Cookeville and my home.

What makes this property unique

New comfortable beds and quiet location. Close to I - 40 without traffic noise. Close to downtown but not much traffic since my home is located on a dead end street. Beautiful views and loads of birds and squirrels to watch. If you are coming for a wedding/event at Lane's Bend my home is just 1.8 miles away.
