STRP Permit #CASR-201517041
Music City River Retreat is hidden away on a residential street less than a mile from The Grand Ole Opry, Opryland Resort and Convention Center, Opry Mills Mall and great restaurants and bars. You won't even realize how close to the action you are when you are relaxing watching the river and the wildlife in the yard. It is a two story house with an open floor plan that includes the family room, kitchen and eating area. This area has real hardwood floors and is great for entertaining. There is a 52 inch flat screen TV above the gas fireplace in the family room with bose speaker surround sound, cd player, HD cable, blu ray player and WIFI internet connection. The Master Bedroom and a small bedroom are downstairs and there are two bedrooms upstairs. A scene from the film 'Lukewarm' with John Schneider and Jet Jurgensmeyer was filmed here in 2012. The house was also featured in a weather channel show called 'Twist of Fate', season 1 episode 6 and 'The Ellen Show' about the 2010 Nashville Flood.

This was, by far, the best home rental experience we’ve ever had. The house was so beautiful with very comfortable beds and furniture, river views, every amenity we could have imagined, incredibly clean, and had so many wonderful extra nice touches. The owners, Bill and Anne, were extremely accommodating and great communicators. We will definitely be back!

Excellent stay in the Music Valley!

We had an incredible stay at this home away from home for bachelor party weekend. The mini garage arcade was a big hit and the location on the river provided an excellent background for our weekend. The hosts were incredibly helpful with any questions and made sure we were set for our stay. Highly recommend to anyone looking to explore all of Nashville!

Quiet getaway perfect for all ages

One of the most surprising things was how quiet it was. Even though it's really close to major attractions and a huge mall, it is super quiet! We went in late December and caught fish every day from the dock. We enjoyed the game room - the variety of games is amazing and serves all ages. The hosts are extremely nice and kind, were incredibly communicative, and are probably the best hosts of anywhere we've stayed. Definitely recommend!!

Beautiful House on Beautiful Property!

There were 10 of us in total and we all had a blast! We absolutely loved the pool and the back patio overlooking the river! We took full advantage of the kayaks and the game room! The owners were always very quick to respond to any questions that we had. There was enough room so that we never felt on top of each other. The beds were very comfy and the bedrooms were all a great size. Would definitely stay here again if we return to Nashville! A great big thank you to Anne and Bill for a fabulous family vacation!

Just perfect!

3 families totaling 6 adults and 7 children stayed comfortably in this beautiful home! The property on the river was amazing. Location was perfect for all Nashville activities (we had a dance competition at the Gaylord, explored Broadway and other sites in Downtown, went to the Nashville Zoo, and even hiked some waterfalls). The game room, kayaks, and hot tub were a huge hit for all!! The house had plenty of space for everyone. Linens, some toiletries, pots/pans, coffee maker, and a waffle maker were all provided (just to name a few). Tons of board games and cards were also in the house. The owners replied swiftly via text with any issues we had. We all enjoyed sitting on the back patio watching the kids play in the grass overlooking the Cumberland River. Overall, we had a wonderful 5 day vacation thanks to this Music City River Retreat! We will definitely be back!

Hidden Quiet Gem with easy access to all!

We stayed at the Music City River Retreat to celebrate our son’s 21st Birthday. We are so happy we settled on this house. The location and amenities of the house were incredible. We felt more like we were on a secluded mountain retreat than a mile to the Grand Ole Opry or a short drive to Broadway. We enjoyed every morning on the back porch drinking coffee, reading books and watching the birds. We spent our free time fishing from the dock, kayaking on the river, playing in the game room, lounging in the hot tub or enjoying a movie together snuggled on the huge sectional in the living room. The beds were comfortable & we all slept well after our long days enjoying Nashville & the surrounding areas. The shower in the master bedroom with the rainfall shower head was so relaxing. The house could benefit from a bit of TLC plus organization of the provided supplies (games, kitchen supplies, game room all had a ton of provided items but there was no rhyme or reason to where things were stored so we were constantly opening cupboards trying to find what we needed). Communication with the owners was prompt & helpful. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here on any future trips we take to Nashville!

The home was clean with plenty of room to spread out. The location was perfect. Close to airport, close to golf courses, and close to downtown. Sitting on the deck in the evening was perfect watching the occasional barge cruise by, and the game room topped it off for our down time at the house. Definitely recommend this property.

Could not have been better

We had all our family here for our fifty year anniversary. The property is fantastic and the owners a pleasure to meet. During the day, when not out exploring Nashville, we found peace and comfort just sitting on the back porch watching the river go by with the occasional barge traffic. We also enjoyed seeing the Cardinals, squirrels, mother fox with her babies, a groundhog, and bunnies. In the evenings we enjoyed the firefly's as well as a fire on the outside deck. Some relaxed in the pool and others spent time successfully fishing from the floating dock. At night the game room served as a gathering place with something interesting to do for all ages. We could not have found a more quiet and peaceful location so close to downtown Nashville. We highly recommend this location.

Wonderful!

Just got back from a weekend with friends and the house was just what we needed. The six of us enjoyed the back porch with river view as we relaxed and reconnected. We went down to Broadway one afternoon (just 10 minutes away) and were happy to have the peace and quiet when we got back to the house. Plenty of games to entertain also.

This is an amazing property on a great location. The view of the Cumberland River in the backyard is amazing. The game room was a blast and well utilized, which really helped to avoid having to go elsewhere for entertainment. Easy communication with the owners. We will definitely come here again, but will come during warmer weather to take full advantage of the outdoor amenities!
