As you enter the front door you will find the living room outfitted with a high quality leather recliner and sofa. Watch your favorite show on the 55" flat screen smart TV. Enjoy “live” TV through our subscription to Hulu and many other Apps with your own personal log in.
The dining room boasts a sparkling new chandelier that adds ambiance to a romantic meal or special gathering. The antique furniture includes a lovely dining table with comfortable seating for 6 . . . a place where memories are made!
The renovated kitchen is complete with an adorable breakfast nook and coffee bar! Dan loves to cook and has outfitted the kitchen with all the necessary items needed to create your culinary delights. The cottage has an under counter water filtration system for the kitchen.
All 3 bedrooms have queen beds, with memory foam mattresses. 2 of the bedrooms have Roku smart TV's and all 3 bedrooms have phone chargers at the bedside and room darkening curtains.
*PLEASE NOTE: The middle bedroom is a “walk-through” bedroom. The back bedroom has a separate entrance from the courtyard.
The main bath has a tiled tub/shower combo. A brand new tankless hot water system has been installed so that you will never run out of hot water while taking a shower!
But wait . . . that is not all! Out back, the cottage hides a charming secret garden, that is so private and serene you will never want to leave. It is enclosed by a fence and canopy of trees. On cool evenings, grill out and enjoy time with family and friends under the stars!

About the host
Hosted by Rebecca Haynes
Dan and I have called Murfreesboro home for 25 years. We raised our 3 sons here and all of them graduated from MTSU, so we are fans! We have always loved the charming vibe of our historic downtown square and have dreamed of owning a cottage in this area. When this one came open in May of 2020, we jumped at the opportunity! We both have the gift of hospitality and thrive on creating memorable experiences for others. It is our hope this historic cottage will provide many special times for friends and families!
Murfreesboro is an awesome place to live and play and downtown Nashville is only a 35 min drive away! We are proud to be a Premiere Partner with HomeAway. Book now for a 5 star hospitality experience!
