About this property

Gate Cottage, private getaway in a stylish new home w/views, hiking and a creek.

Kick back and relax in this calm, remote, stylish space. The Gate Cottage is located just inside and up the hill from our front gate; hence, the "Gate Cottage". Our Tennessee farm is at the very end of a dead-end road, with little to no traffic. Once you are here, you can put your feet up and relax, with few passersby, and no streetlights. Have a weekend or more away from it all, whether to read, write, rest, hike, fish, kayak from or to our creek--there are endless things to do, or do nothing at all.

The space
Enter from the front porch into the living area, with the fully appointed gourmet kitchen, laundry, shower and half-bath on the main floor. Upstairs is one large bedroom with a queen bed (Temperpedic Mattress), cast-iron bathtub, windows surrounding with great natural lighting, with a small room with two twin mattresses on the floor for either kids or a second couple. There is another half-bath upstairs, gas logs, vaulted ceilings, lush "Luxome linens" creating a spa-like retreat like no other.

Guest access
The entire house is available to guests, with the exception of an owners' closet. Guests have full access to the entire 150 acres to explore. Additionally, Bradshaw Creek is running through the property, which ties into the Elk River, so fishing, swimming, and kayaking are all available to you.

Recent additions to the Gate Cottage include its own private 5-foot round tub which can be warmed in the cooler months, and cooled in the summer months. Also new to the property is a fire pit and four Adirondack chairs, located behind the house, with firewood provided.

Need to work while visiting? The cottage has dependable internet, and is quiet and away from distractions, as the Gate Cottage is separate and apart from the owners' home. However, as of November, 2024, the owners are building a new home on the property, so you may see some contractors passing by the cottage.

Gate cottage

Loved our stay. We needed a getaway from everyday stresses. Gate cottage definitely is the place to destress. Enjoyed sitting outside in hot tub with a fire and looking at the stars. The view of the farm was amazing. The kitchen was great and complete with everything you need plus. Jimmy and Leigh were great host. Everything was perfect.

2nd stay and I will be back!

Absolutely love the cottage! Leigh and Jimmy are the most amazing and accommodating hosts. This was my second stay because I loved it so much the first time, and my second stay was just as wonderful. From the beautiful cottage, to the cute pigs from the kitchen view, to the creek, and garden with fresh herbs - this is the perfect getaway from everyday life. I wish I could live there! I will be back again

Best VRBO I’ve ever stayed at

My wife and I stayed at the Gate Cottage for two nights on our drive up North. We have stayed at several VRBOs, and none have been as well built, styled or welcoming as the Gate Cottage. Leigh and Jimmy (and Jack!) were INCREDIBLE hosts. The property is everything and then some. We wish we could’ve stayed longer but one thing is for sure, we’ll be back!

Dream home away from home!

Jimmy and Leigh were the best hosts! When we arrived we had fresh eggs from their hen house waiting for us on the kitchen counter. The views were amazing and so was the creek! The hosts helped us with everything that we needed and even aired up our inter tubes when our air pump went out. If you love farms and want to get away from everything then you should come here! We enjoyed seeing the cows, hogs, chickens/roosters, horse, and their dog Luke was the sweetest! We floated on the creek and took hikes. When we relaxed at night we filled up the trough and enjoyed the firepit under the stars! This place is the best in so many ways!

Secluded Getaway

Beautiful, modern and clean guest house in the rural Tennessee countryside. Perfect for 1 or 2 people who want to get off the grid and enjoy peace and quiet. Owners were very friendly and helpful, but not intrusive. Magnificent fully appointed kitchen. This property is exactly as advertised. No traffic, no neighbors, no noise. Reasonable driving distance to gas stations and grocery stores, but nothing in the immediate area.

Weekend getaway

We were in town for a weekend event and didn’t get to spend as much time at the cottage as we would have liked, but it was by far one of the nicest places we’ve stayed. Everything was very clean and organized. There was so much attention to detail and we had everything we needed and some. Side note, I always pack my own cookware, because it is usually not the best at places we stay, understandably, but it was a nice surprise to have something I could actually use including a well seasoned cast iron pan. Jimmy and Leigh were very welcoming and made us feel like family but still provided privacy. We felt secluded in the cottage, which we really enjoyed. The property was absolutely amazing between top of the hill views to the hidden stream, it was like something you see in a magazine. We will definitely be staying again next year if it is available.

Great long weekend trip. We loved the cottage and the farm. Spent lots of time in the creek. My kids loved the pigs! Our favorite was sitting outside at night watching all the fireflies. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get away for a couple days.

Spring Break Family Getaway

The cottage and farm were just what we were looking for, and exactly as described. Our stay and accommodations exceeded our expectations. The hosts went above and beyond! With young kids, we enjoyed downtime to relax, beautiful views, and wide open spaces. From time at the creek, to playing in the hay fort, to walking the farm, and checking on the animals-it was hard to leave! Thank you for sharing your farm with us. It was a trip to remember and we’d love to come back.

Absolutely Beautiful Secluded Home

This home is absolutely beautiful and so well updated and furnished. The kitchen is beautiful and ever inch of space so well utilized. The trees were so beautiful all the fall colors and the cool weather made sitting outside on the beautiful porch very enjoyable and relaxing. The house is fully stocked with anything you might want/need. We were able to gather eggs from the chickens, fresh lettuce from the garden and pet all the friendly animals. The host and her husband are very gracious and friendly. So beautiful, would love to go back and spend the entire weekend. The only drawback is the property is very secluded so not convenient for activities other than onsite. We had reservations in Pulaski that evening and it was a little longer a trip than expected.

Beyond exceeded expectations

This home and property is amazing. We loved it so much that we stayed for another night. There is so much to do around the property and the hosts are wonderfully accommodating. Whether you want adventure or relaxation, there is something for everyone here. There are pigs, horses, chickens, cats and dogs, hundreds of acres, fresh herbs and fresh home grown veggies, a perfectly decorated luxurious cottage, a stone pizza oven, hot tub, private creek, lush greenery, and more. Will most definitely be back!

Unexpected Joy

We booked the Gate Cottage for a two-person writing retreat. We needed a good space, good light, isolation, and a good place to walk and think. We had hoped to enjoy the "common area" of the farm but not sure what to expect. The experience was far beyond what we needed and hoped for. We got the great light, great space, FANTASTIC KITCHEN. And more! We swam in the creek, relaxed in the "hot tub," and shared amazing conversation and meals with our hosts, Jimmy and Leigh. We made friends!

Beautiful Getaway

This little gate cottage was a perfect getaway. Wonderful for rest and relaxation, reading on the porch, sipping a glass of wine, exploring the grounds, and just taking in the beauty of the surroundings. Leigh was very responsive and helpful. She really could not do enough to make sure our stay was perfect. The cottage was immaculate! I think Leigh and Jimmy should build a few more of these little gems and rent them out. What a lovely retreat!

Perfect Country Farm

We had such an amazing experience staying on this property. The pictures on the website were great, but it was even more beautiful in person. Jimmie and Leigh are amazing, and provided everything that we could have possibly wanted or needed to make our trip perfect. The cabin was gorgeous and so comfortable. The views were breathtaking of the mountains and on the river. My children and pups had the best time and we definitely want to come back to this little slice of heaven!!!
