About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Great place to stay, close to downtown, very private, and lots of amenities!

Salt Creek Farmhouse is a classic restored, 1920's farmhouse on 56 acres with all the modern conveniences! Drive 10 minutes to downtown Nashville, hike our trail, grill out or relax on the wrap-around porch, or by the fire pit. Sleeps six people in; two bedrooms each with a queen sized bed and the full sized sleeper couch in the living room. Towels, wash cloths, sheets, pillows, blankets, coffee, ice etc. are all provided. Dogs/cats and extra $ 60 each (3 days), $ 80 each (4-7 days), $ 100 each (8 - 14 days), and must be approved by the management in advance. Pets must be kept off furniture and beds.

We have fast, reliable Fiber-Optic WiFi and there's a 40" TCL smart TV and a DVD player in the living room. On the smart TV, you can stream Netflix, Disney, Hulu, Prime etc. via your account, or watch Youtube and other streaming services for free. The TCL smart TV also offers dozens of channels for free.
There's also a smaller flat screen TV in one of the bedrooms for use with DVDs.

There is a two person Jacuzzi in the master bath, there is not a hot tub. Mattresses have been updated in 2023.

The property includes 56 acres, most of which is wooded. There are hiking trails starting less than 100 yards from the house that we maintain. There's a fishing hole along the trail, where guests have caught big Bass and huge Catfish, as well as; Blue Gill, Crappie, Gar and other fish. We have found; Morels, Lions Mane and Turkey Tail mushrooms in our woods. There's a porch swing on the wrap around porch, cooled by a ceiling fan and a horse-shoe pit in the back yard.
Hunting is not allowed. Please keep pets off the furniture and beds and pick up after your dog, there’s a pooper-scooper and a shovel next to the fire pit for that.

There is a House phone you can use to make calls anywhere in the US or Canada. Cell phone coverage is spotty but if you go to settings on your phone you can probably select ‘Wi-Fi calling’, like we do, which syncs your phone to the Wi-Fi.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Stretch out in the jetted tub. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

This is a beautiful property with lovely walking trails and very pet friendly. It's a rural farmhouse setting, and if you're lucky enough to have clear nighttime skies, the display of stars will be amazing. For us, the highlight of our trip was the kindness and graciousness of our host, Ken, who was accommodating to special needs in too many ways to enumerate and who went out of his way to help us in what turned out to be a time of crisis. I can't say enough about how kind he was but we would happily happily rent from him again.

Love the location and the era of the house.

A lovely home! We enjoyed the serenity and the beautiful home! It was very comfortable! We were disappointed that it isn’t a 3 bedroom house. It’s actually a 2 bedroom with a hideaway couch in the family room. Also, there is no hot tub as noted, it’s a jacuzzi in the bathroom. The cleanliness was lacking. Spider webs with their owners were in the corners of the downstairs bedroom. There was dust on all the furniture and baseboards.

One word - RELAXING

My dog, Penny and I had a relaxing stay. The trails on the property were perfect for morning and evening walks. The large jetted bathtub was a great way to knock the dust off and wind down at the end of the day. The location is far enough out of town to be restful but close enough to everything I wanted to do. I would rent again.

Charming historic farmhouse

We struggle with how to rate this property. On one hand this is a charming 100 year old farmhouse that we found upon arrival to be immaculately clean inside and out. The history of the property was very interesting and we enjoyed exploring the exterior buildings and grounds. The problem is the house sits very close to a two lane road. We found the daytime traffic ruined our ability to relax on the neat wrap around porch after our day of hiking and exploring BC. The traffic did settle down after 8-9 pm week days. Maybe this bothered us more than it would other people but we feel it’s worth mentioning. There were a couple other things that come with a home of this age but as stated it’s obvious there is pride in ownership here.

We enjoyed our stay at Salt Creek. The property was cute. Unfortunately, it was a little too cool to sit outside on the great porch. It is very close to Brown County State Park and to Nashville. Messages that I sent to Ken received a very prompt response.

A Pleasant Experience

This property is reasonably close to the state park and downtown Nashville. Moreover, the property itself is enjoyable with its own creek and nature trail. Our only disappointment was that this property is listed as having three bedrooms; it does not. It does have three sleeping spaces, but one is a living room (this is mentioned in the longer description but not in the main advertising). We still enjoyed the stay, but the guest who ended up sleeping on the couch maybe enjoyed it a little less.
