Nashville conference

We had a wonderful time at this Great Lake home! The house is very clean and comfortable. The owner was very responsive and helped us locate the closest boat launch for our fishing boat. I attended my conference in Nashville for some of the time and my husband was able to get some fishing done. I would definitely rent this home again when we are in the area!

Great location

We really enjoyed staying here. Great location on the lake and close to everything. Good ramp nearby to launch the boat. The house was clean and loved relaxing on the screened in porch. We enjoyed talking with the neighbor, Matt, who was keeping the drift and dock area cleaned up, and kept a campfire going everyday! Hope to be back!

Perfect stay!

My husband and I have rented many, many properties on our travels over the last few years. We agree that this is our favorite so far. The house was so comfy … I could sleep on that couch! Our granddaughters were thrilled with the Dolly Parton connection… kept looking next door hoping to see her! I’m a birder and they were amazing. My husband wanted to fish but we ran out of time. Definitely will stay longer next time. Sandy was so helpful!

Couldn't have asked for a better stay. In a perfect location just outside the city that's nice and quiet yet close to everything. Owner was easy to get to and very accommodating, we had a little issue that they took care of right away, will definitely look for this place again next time we come down!

Home (not so much) away from home

Sandy was so helpful and accommodating when we needed a last minute place to stay. The place was so cozy and the view was priceless. Definitely helped relieved some of the stress from dealing with our issues at our house. Would highly recommend this listing to anyone.

Perfect Holiday Getaway

My husband and I spent three nights with our two dogs in this beautiful lakeside home. The neighborhood was quiet and the sunrise over the lake was the perfect way to start a day. The home was equipped with everything we needed for our stay and was spotless. Sandy was very responsive to our questions and check in and check out were a breeze. We would absolutely stay here again!

Wonderful!

Such a beautiful spot! The lake is gorgeous (the sunsets to die for) and it's close enough to downtown. The cozy home is charming and nicely appointed. Great for a small family or couple. Fish the lake from the dock if that's your thing. Also perfect for a dog. The host could not be nicer!

Doing a Little Fishing

My husband and I booked this cute cottage home to visit his daughter and do a little fishing. The view of Old Hickory Lake from the covered porch and deck was beautiful. The home is quaint with all the amenities needed to have a relaxing week on the lake. Since there is a dock at the home, we brought our bass boat. There is a boat ramp just up the road about a mile which was convenient. There were plenty of restaurants and shopping within 20 minutes. You won't be disappointed in this home. The owner answered any questions we had in a very timely manner.

Dog weekend

Two teams of dock dogs, handlers and dogs found this awesome cabin to stay at and enjoy while we came to Tennessee to compete at Wilson Fairgrounds. Every thing we needed to relax in between competitions. Really nice area, neighbors very friendly. Dogs could swim and play ball. Sit on the porch enjoy the water view during the day and the quiet of the night, and the visiting deer a bonus! We will be back for next year’s competition and hoping it will be available.

Cozy Lake Retreat

All around fantastic weekend. Enjoyed seeing sailboats cruising on the water. Last morning before dawn walked to the water and a small herd of deer came up. They froze for a few moments before taking off. Four were very small. If you are a nature lover, like water views, and want a cozy little cabin, I highly recommend.

Peaceful cottage

This cottage was perfect for my sister and I! I drove from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and my sister came up from Alabama to meet up for a mini vacation. The cottage was so peaceful and met all of our needs. Clean and comfy furnishings with all of the basic necessities that we needed for our 6 day stay. The location was perfect for our day trips to Nashville and surrounding areas. Sandy was available for any questions we had and was a genuinely warm and friendly host. I wished we could have enjoyed the porch and lake area more, but the heat and humidity kept us inside most of the time we were there. Luckily the central air worked wonderfully!

Not clean,

First full day I fell off the 2x10 that was used to get you onto the dock! I really hurt myself and my husband had to help me out of the rocks along the bank. I spent most of the remaining days using a cane and a knee brace. My husband called the owner and said that little 2x10 was insufficient. He did have someone come over to fix it so it wasn’t as wobbly. The next morning we awoke to ants all over the kitchen counter. We weren’t even using the kitchen! We made coffee but ate out every meal. We washed our coffee cups every morning but the ants made another appearance. We bought some raid ant killer and used it on the countertops. They never went into the cabinets or silverware drawer. The bathroom is SMALL you need to open the shower door do use the commode. So, just a note our celebration week was not what we expected.

Nice little get away with friendly owner.

We were there for the George Strait concert, this cabin gave us a nice place to rest and relax with our dogs between our Nashville sight-seeing and concert event. We had a very severe storm come through that downed trees and power-lines in the area. Sandy came by to make sure we were ok and checked to see if we needed anything, then brought us candles and a flashlight. You have everything you need at this cabin and if you need food or a place to eat you're very close to town with supermarkets and a Walmart. We would stay again. Thanks Sandy!

Two Foot Cove

We picked a bad time to stay at the lake house since it rained most of the time. Besides that, the house was very comfortable and the view was incredible. Access to the dock could use a little work. Overall a very relaxing trip!

About the host

Hosted by Sandy Holt

I am proud to say that I am a native Nashvillian. I have spent my life living in Tennessee and a University of Tennessee alumni.
I love the outdoors. Hunting, fishing, and especially boating, are my favorite past time activities, and I am a huge Nashville Predator's fan.
Whether you live in Tennessee or just come to visit, I highly recommend you experience Old Hickory Lake, a treasure found right outside my back door.

Why they chose this property

I purchased this property initially as a personal vacation home and have since purchased another home four doors down the street for my permanent residence. The property is very private and yet I can be in downtown Nashville in 20 - 25 minutes.

What makes this property unique

The cottage was a perfect spot for me and my two sons to get away, fish, enjoy the boat and spend time together. We certainly have shared some treasured moments and built fond memories while staying in our lake home. I am excited to share this special place with others to create your own wonderful memories.
