Wonderful location in Nashville. We loved how we could be so close to everything, but yet in a quiet, peaceful spot. The porch on this property was just what the doctor ordered: It was the perfect place for morning coffee and evening relaxation. The beds were super comfortable and the owners let us do our thing, but were there in case we needed anything. A perfect stay!

About the host

Hosted by Kim Parent

Host profile image
I came to nashville in my early 30's to pursue the dream of writing and recording my songs. It has turned out to be an amazing journey! I toured as a background vocalist for 6 years with Brooks and Dunn, 3 years with Christopher Cross, and I've been singing at the Grand Ol Opry as needed since 2010. I perform regularly at the Bluebird, the Commodore Hotel, and several churches in town. I stay busy singing in studios around town for other writers and continue to record new songs thru out the year! Also in a fun cover band called The Retropolitans, find us on YouTube! The Retropolitans... Life is good.

Why they chose this property

I bought this house because of how close it is to the downtown area, and yet it is still mellow and comfortable with a huge yard. We have some nice restaurants and coffee shops nearby that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. I will make sure you have everything you need upon request. Let us organize a private songwriter concert for you in our outdoor deck area and you will go home knowing what the true Nashville experience including songwriting really is. There are artist costs involved, and we would need plenty of advance notice to get the best performers we can. Hope to hear from you soon! See uploaded video snip of a recent concert we hosted for 50 guests, featuring Don Henry and Jon Vezner of The Don Juans.

What makes this property unique

First of all, the large private peaceful deck, right outside your entrance door! We have a huge gas grill up front if needed, and a chimenia for cozy outdoor fire if wanted. . In addition, Let us create your own special songwriter event in the back deck area !! (we need plenty of advance notice and more $$ to pay the talent!)
Take the Nashville Star downtown from the Donelson Train Station...$2.00 per person, 9 minute ride. Later that night, catch an Uber ride back to the house for $20.00 or less depending on supply/demand. Hassle free downtown adventure!!
In addition, I have put together a welcome notebook with any information you might need. It includes a master list of restaurants which are ALL within a 15 minute drive, recommendations for tourist attractions and other tips as well. Have a Nashville adventure and yet be as comfortable as you are at your own house at the same time. Do your laundry here, go home with fresh clean clothes!
