Peace full and Relaxing
House was very clean inside. Plenty of room for the 6 of us. Close to Nashville and Park entrance. 15 min max. Roads a little curvy for the wife.Seen an otter some deer. Enjoyed the Hot tube even though it was 90 outside. Had nice fire pit but was just too hot in the evening to enjoy. Overall a great stay with family.

Great quiet retreat
Family from TN, WI and VA met for a long weekend! Great place with plenty of space for walks in the woods/park, fire pit beers, cards/domino games, or afternoon naps! Short trip in town for distillery or wine tasting and shopping. We also caught the antique tractor show!

Perfect Thanksgiving Retreat
Story Time Retreat was truly that. Our family spent Thanksgiving here and it was a joyful experience. The property was very clean and well appointed. Our host Marisa thought of everything. She thoughtfully provided a scrumptious pumpkin roll for us to enjoy and the coffee bar was outstanding. The kitchen was amazing too and had all we needed to cook a fabulous Thanksgiving feast! Most of all, we enjoyed the serenity and quietude this property provided. It was just what we needed. We highly recommend staying at this lovely retreat and we are already looking forward to our next stay here in the spring or summer.
