TRULY CENTRAL EAST NASHVILLE COTTAGE
About this cottage rental
The Cottage: Located in the popular East Nashville neighborhood a hidden garden oasis awaits you as you enter the courtyard through your completely private entrance. The guest cottage was originally a railroad workers home and one of the oldest structures in the neighborhood. Built in the mid 1800’s, the now renovated cottage is a unique hideaway close to downtown and reflects a love of art, gardening and the comforts of your “home away from home”. It is perfect for a single person or couple to enjoy a restful and cozy environment after a full day of visiting Music City. The guest cottage is run by two culturally experienced, open-minded, world travelers who offer a practical, comfortable and inspired visit for people who, given the correct amenities and location, prefer to take care of themselves. The cottage features it's own separate entrance in the alley behind the main home. Your stay will leave you in want of nothing else except to explore the sights and sounds of what is nicknamed “Nashvegas”. So come on and be our guest and experience the old and new Nashville! What you'll find when you get here: The cottage features it's own separate entrance from the alley behind the main home. Please note The main house is a private residence. Please do not disturb. Private Cottage Off Street Parking Courtyard Queen Size Bed Fully Equipped Kitchen Washer and Dryer Smart TV Wireless internet Guests Arrival: When you reserve your visit you are given the code for your easy access to self-check in. I am available by text or cell in the event you need anything or have any questions while you enjoy your stay. The Neighborhood: The cottage is located in the most popular neighborhood in Nashville and just minutes away from downtown and lower Broadway’s famous Honky Tonks and the world famous Ryman Auditorium. You are also a short drive to the many hip restaurants, coffee shops and local drinking establishments near our historic “5 Points” neighborhood in East Nashville. Getting Around: If you prefer not to drive, the public transit system is 2 blocks away, however I suggest you use Uber or Lyft for easy connivence getting around our city. The cottage is just under 4 miles by car to I-24 making it an easy access to venture out and tour other parts of Nashville and/or drop in on the many music venues all within 10 to 15 minutes from the cottage. We are located just blocks from the Music City Bikeway which has direct access to downtown. Enjoy a stroll, run or bike ride through Shelby Bottoms Park located just one block from your front door. The park offers over 300 acres of wetlands and trails that run along the Cumberland River where you might catch sight of the General Jackson Showboat chugging down the river. There is also Vinny Links golf course nearby. On the other side of the Cumberland is the Grand Ole Opry. Take in a concert or go shopping at the Opry Mills Mall but don’t miss a walk through the spectacular atrium at the Opryland Hotel which is free and all are located within the same vicinity. Nashville's airport is also easily accessible and less than 9 miles (approx. 16 minutes) from the guest cottage.

Within minutes from downtown. We enjoyed our stay in this little cottage. Nice new shower. Quiet. Private. It is tricky getting your car parked along fence line in alleyway.
There is a main house on this property fairly close. I wouldnt recommend anymore then 2 people in this unit as it is a small space with 3 basic rooms. But overall good.
3.0
The room was rather shabby and I don’t mean shabby chic.
No long mirrors to check yourself out before going to a wedding.
Entry is from the alley which is gravel. as well as a gravel walkway and square stepping stones to the cottage (not good if you are dressed up, pulling luggage or getting back to the cottage after dark.
Limited counter space in the bathroom.
No tissues.

This property is an amazing neighborhood. Walking distance to so many good eateries.
Spend one day on Nashville then move away from the city to enjoy Mother Nature. So much to do.

Great location. Plenty to do in a short distance. It was a nice clean cottage. Appreciated having a house experience rather than a hotel. Price was competitive to area hotels. Perfect size for a couple, but because of the size, it is not a place to take a family. Only drawbacks were parking in an alley, when there is a spot inside the fence. Not enough towels provided for the whole stay, but we we’re asked to not wash them. And someone walked through yard to take trash out.

Quiet neighborhood, quaint and comfortable. Served our short stay purpose.

This cottage was a restful reprieve after exploring the city. It was the perfect size for two and gave my husband and I a "home away from home" feeling. Its obvious Cynthia is an experienced host. From the information we were given ahead of time and that which we recieved upon check-in, my husbnd and I were well informed. She was even willing to accomodate a special request which was so appreciated. I could not recommend more. Im already trying to convince my husband to buy the same couch she had in the cottage. So comfy!

We visited for a Saturday evening concert in East Nashville. This lovely little cottage was the perfect home base for all the fun in the neighborhood. The owner was super friendly and communicative. We will be back. Can’t recommend this property enough.

We loved our stay at the cozy cottage! The location was great with many restaurant options nearby, plus a great Coffee Shop/restaurant only a few minutes away.
The bed was very comfortable & the amenities great!
You are only 20 minutes from the Grand Old Opry and ten minutes to downtown Nashville.

The Shelby Hills cottage was a wonderful place to stay. It was very clean and inviting. Once my husband got the hang of parking along the fence, it was easy breezy! The location is PERFECT! We booked not really knowing the location of Nashville attractions, and it worked out perfectly. The cottage is a short drive to downtown as well as a short drive to the Opry, the two main attractions we wanted to see. It would be a perfect place for someone who is attending a Titans game as well. Cynthia was very patient with me as I had a few questions upon check in. When I finally read the notebook all my questions were answered! Lol. We would definitely stay in Shelby Hills cottage again.

Just perfect
So much to say about this amazing little cottage.
Visited Nashville from Charleston SC for our 19 yo son’s Dixie Major World Series tournament as 11 teams from the southeast descended on Shelby Park for the first time in Nashville history. So glad we chose this cottage.
Walking distance to the fields allowed us to head back between games and cool off and eat. About 10 minutes from downtown but parking was so challenging we spent most of our time finding restaurants closer to the cottage. So many great places and grocery stores within 5 minutes.
Stayed 7 nights. Ate out for most meals. Kitchen has everything you need. An air fryer would be a great add to the well stocked kitchen.
Owner was accessible and so helpful. Door a little tricky to open upon arrival but a quick call resolved the issue.
Four stars for cleanliness only because of a couple outside observations. Grass on side of cottage was a little overgrown when we arrived that grew more during our 7 days, there were cobwebs on the wooden shelf outside the door, and some empty plastic bags had gotten inside the gate on the walkway (likely wind blown).
To be honest … the alley parking made us a little nervous the first night when we pulled up in the dark. But owner is right. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful with no issues or concerns for safety.
We were so sad to leave and will stay here again if we are ever in Nashville. This is definitively a 5 star perfect getaway location.
(PS … Our North Charleston SC Dixie Majors team won the World Series which was the perfect ending to our first vacation as empty nesters).

Pleasant stay in a pleasant cottage!
The cottage we stayed in was pleasant and clean. The neighborhood was charming, quiet, and safe. We enjoyed being close to Shelby Park. Downtown Nashville was a short drive from the property. There are so many things to do jn the surrounding area if you want to explore.

Cottage is very cozy and surprisingly quiet at night, when I expected air traffic and train whistle to wake me. It’s close to Shelby Park, you could actually walk to it but it would be a bit of a climb back uphill. Has most of what you need, for a short or extended stay. It’s close to downtown, and there are a lot of little neighborhood cafes, restaurants, butchers if you want to pick stuff up, or eat outside on patios. Everyone was masked where they needed to be, which was reassuring. Would stay there again.

We just arrived home yesterday from our trip and had a wonderful time in Nashville, specifically the east side. Our cottage was perfect. It was quiet and had everything we would need. It was a great home away from home. The bus was two blocks away and very convenient. We used that and ride sharing to get around and never had to wait more than Q5 minutes. So many great places to eat, shop and hear live music in east Nashville. We hope to be back and would love to stay at the cottage again.

We absolutely loved how quiet and easy going this neighborhood was. Nashville is a high energy city, this rental was the perfect reprieve from the craziness. There's a great little beer store/butcher shop right around the corner, and a ton of cool east Nashville haunts are within walking distance. We even walked to and from downtown a couple of times. The property manager was available and helpful, the check in and check out was easy as could be.

Perfect location and cottage
This cottage was neat, clean and perfect for our stay. It is located near downtown Nashville (10-15 minutes), but is located on the East Side, which is so quaint and quiet. We also enjoyed walking the park, which was very close to the cottage. I recommend it to any couple who are looking to experience Nashville and surrounding areas.

Perfect Spot
Every aspect of our rental experience was wonderful! The location of the cottage was close to all attractions, yet provided a respite from the hustle bustle. Cynthia was quick to respond to all of our questions, and goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. I HIGHLY recommend Cozy Cottage.

Cozy Cottage minutes from downtown
Great little cottage for a couples weekend. Very private and all updated remodeled property. Cindy the owner was very accommodating and prompt to answer any questions. There was a park within walking distance that we used every morning for our walk. Uber ride downtown $10 which was nice since parking downtown is $15-$20. Give this place a try you won't be disappointed.

Perfect spot to stay in Nashville
This adorable cottage is in the perfect location for a visit to Nashville. Literally minutes from any activity from downtown partying to a visit to the Opry. The cottage was clean, beautifully decorated, (I even asked where to get the comforter!) and very cozy. Cynthia, the owner, was gracious and easy to get a hold of when needed. I would recommend this cottage to anyone wanting to avoid a hotel and craving peace and quiet.
