Beautiful property

The home and grounds were so beautiful! The home is more spectacular than the pictures are able to show. I only wish we had more time to stay and enjoy all the amenities offered. The home is extrememly spacious and provides ample room for a large group, if needed. Fabulous accommodations!

Carnley- Freeman Vacation

We loved the property. Weather was perfect, even had some local visitors; 2 does, 2 bucks, and a fawn not to mention the gopher "beaver" down by the pond. Will definitely look into staying on a future visit!

Great Stay in a Beautiful Location

The images don't entirely do this place justice! It's a beautiful property with tons of room for a large group. Our party of 10 people fit easily - with beds for everyone. There was enough space for us all to visit and not feel crowded or on top of each other. The property was easy to find and in great shape. Highly recommend to any large group looking for a relaxing place to stay!

Perfect for our family!

This house was great for our family! It was half between us and all 4 of our adult children and families. Plenty of room to spread out in the house and lots of room for the grandkids to run outside! We loved it just wish we all had had more time to stay longer!

Great historic property with lots of space and amazing views

The pictures really don't do this home justice! The house is beautiful, inside and out. We were so surprised that the owner left us snacks and flowers. It was a nice touch! We had plenty of space indoors and out to play games and to relax. We're already talking about our next trip!

Ohio family of 10

Long weekend away from Ohio! 6 adults and 4 children (ages 6,9,11,13) We all enjoyed our weekend! Lots of fishing and wading in the creek. We had fires out in the yard and everyone was happy with the property! The enclosed front porch with a large swing and other furniture was enjoyed by all! Thank you for everything! Idle family!

The lodge was very nice we all had a good time

it was everything that I saw online. But what I didn't like about it. It had a lot of cracked window. And the bathroom kept getting stopped up after the Maintenance man fixed it other than that we all had a good time And we would stay again if we need to

Beautiful house and location

Had 8 friends that were due a get together and this was the perfect place lots of room to sit in groups or all together . The beds of course is not what we have at home but we all did sleep so not a big deal . The showers did not have a lot of water pressure that could be from the old pipes or just regular build up but we all managed to stay clean. It was nice to have a house fully stocked of the kitchen and laundry supplies and all those things you always forget to take. Hopefully it is available when we get together next year

Perfect for our Family Thanksgiving

Bridsong was the perfect fit for our one week Nashville Family Thanksgiving! The property was wonderful. We all enjoyed walking the grounds and relaxing and our 8 year old loved the creek and the swing by the pond. The outdoor fire pit was fantastic. The house was perfect for our group of 8 adults and 1 child. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and feel comfortable. There was even a TV room for the guys to watch football! We all fell in love with the fabulous great room with its comfortable furniture and awesome fireplace. The great room was only beaten out by the fantasitc front porch with its wonderful porch swing and rockers. The kitchen was large and well stocked with all the dishes, pots and pans and kitchen utensils that we needed to prepare a full Thanksgiving dinner for the family. The location was great with easy access in to Nashville for sightseeing, Vandy football and the music clubs downtown. Several grocery store options just down the road made shopping a breeze. Jennifer was fantastic about answering all our questions and helping us with all of our planning before we arrived. She even got firewood delivered before we arrived. Everyone is already asking about planning a return trip!

Who knew Ashland City was so great!

Coming in state to celebrate our son’s college graduation we wanted to be near Nashville but not in Nashville. This beautiful property hit the nail on the head! Room for all! Comfy beds and ample lounging areas also.Outdoor activities included yard games and a fire pit, which we fully enjoyed. 30 mins drive for all surrounding cities made it fun to venture out day and night. We found a fun dive bar in Ashland City called Main Street Hideaway aka Kings Bar. If you make it in please let the staff know Arizona says HI! Also, we dropped into a brewery nearby called Flytes Brewhouse. If that’s your thing stop in and try the peaches & cream. You won’t regret it! The owner offers so much passion and his hospitality is unmatched! If ever we return to the area, this is our forever choice for lodging!
