Had a great stay. Property is clean and updated, had everything we wanted and more. About 30 - 40 minutes from Nashville, which was convenient. Very quiet neighborhood.
House lived up to all expectations!Neighborhood was wonderful. Host was very gracious in giving us a late checkout due to flight delay. Kitchen was Will stocked with everything needed for cooking. Thank you so very much!!
Lots of space. Well stocked, only thing missing was wine glasses so we bought a pack and left them for the next guests! Many activities to keep you occupied. Would love to come back and visit during warmer months. Deer everywhere! Easy drive into Nashville.
Property had serious attention to detail, tons of things to do and a perfect spot for vacation, I’ve rented a lot of houses and this was by far the best overall! Game room in garage is genius!!!
Great home with lots of indoor and outdoor activities for all ages. Very spacious for 3 families (12 total people). Easy access to local restaurants, grocery stores and boat rental. Owner communication was wonderful. I can't say enough good things about this property.
The owners thought of everything for this stay. Things to do on rainy days or when the weather is nice. Beds are comfortable and accommodations made for all of you need to gather in a big space or retreat to solitude. Loved this house and location.
From the moment we arrived, we were impressed with the cleanliness, comfort and spaciousness of the home to suit the needs of our extended family. The lake setting was spectacular with plenty of equipment for our entire family to enjoy the water, from fishing poles to kayaks, and even a canoe. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the ping pong table, pool table and games provided.The well-appointed kitchen (including a few cooking staples), the plentiful pans/cutlery, and the ample patio furniture and indoor seating options, made meal times easy and enjoyable.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hickory Dickory Dock and highly recommend it to all. Thank you for sharing your home with us.
My husband and I and another couple came to Nashville but wanted to stay away from the city. We were so pleased with the home. It had more than we utilized. We did fish from the dock with fishing poles provided. It was a perfect choice ..fous.us.us.Quieneighborhood.
Great stay, was able to do all the activities we wanted. Spider city outside. Probably due to being on the lake but outdoors it was an issue. Otherwise great stay.
This home is beautiful! Located just outside of Nashville, this lake front property has it all! A dock for your boat, kayaks and canoes, fire pit with tons of great outdoor amenities, updates through out the entire house, lovely kitchen, amazing game room, and incredible views! Jonny was a wonderful host and very easy to communicate with! We so enjoyed our stay!
We enjoyed our stay. The house was well stocked with basics and had a great amount of activities to do for all ages. We enjoyed the lake for fishing and boating while using the boat slip to dock our 2 wave runners. We played pool, ping pong and connect 4 in the evenings. Such a great time, we had no complaints. The only suggestion we have is a ladder off the dock so you can easily enter the lake to swim or float.
The house was very roomy and had everything you could want or need, especially if traveling with children. We had a reunion with friends with children. There was plenty of space for everyone, including a crib for our little ones. The kitchen is well stocked, grill has propane, fire pit has wood to use, even card games and puzzles for entertainment. Highly recommend
Excellent lake home with ample space for two families to enjoy a weeks stay. Kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed for cooking during our stay. Outdoor area was also well appointed with plenty of seating on both the upper and lower levels.
Kids absolutely loved the large game room with their own tv. We brought our boat and enjoyed all that Old Hickory lake has to offer. Home is conveniently located within minutes of Spencer Camp Creek boat launch .
Already planning our next visit and cannot wait to stay.
This place was awesome! There was plenty of space to move around! It was one of the best stocked homes I’ve ever stayed in. There’s so much to do and they are so kind to share their kayaks and lake gear! We stayed here for a team building event for our 17’s boys volleyball team and it was fantastic! 5 stars for the beds and pillows too! I even ordered the same pillows on my way home! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Their were 6 adults and 4 children in our group. Yes, everyone enjoyed the accommodations.
