This quaint country cottage is ideal for couples, solo travelers, or small families seeking a peaceful getaway and is close enough for a day trip to Nashville and other hot Tennessee destinations. Not far, you can find beautiful hiking paths, country attractions, shopping and dining. Across the street is a beautiful town park with a playground, meandering walking paths, and a scenic creek that flows through town. This relaxing countryside escape offers comfort, charm, and a touch of nostalgia. A fun fact about Salt Lick Creek Cottage, it used to be the town's floral shop! Now, it’s part of Red Boiling Spring’s Historic District. When you stay with us, see if you can find any decor inspired by the cottage's history! Inside Salt Lick Creek Cottage, you’ll find all the comforts of home in a thoughtfully arranged space. The full kitchen is well-equipped with a refrigerator/freezer, oven and stovetop, microwave, dishwasher, Keurig, hot water kettle, blender, toaster, cookware, and utensils—everything you need to cook and enjoy meals during your stay. The living area offers two comfy couches, a TV with streaming apps, board games, books, and toys for a cozy night in. A dining table sits conveniently in the open living space, and the cottage is kept comfortable with a wall heater, window A/C unit, and free Wi-Fi throughout. The bedroom features a queen bed, dresser, and closet, plus a small desk perfect for remote work or writing. For families, a portable playpen and an air mattress are available for flexible sleeping arrangements. A washer and dryer are tucked in the hallway for your convenience. The bathroom has a step-up entry with a privacy curtain and includes a shower/tub combo and a circulating water heater that ensures endless hot water—ideal after a day of exploring the park or strolling the trails. We rent out both Salt Lick Creek Cottage and the Country Colonial Retreat next door (the former Hudson House and also part of the town’s Historic District). The Cottage is our pet-friendly option, and when rented together, the two make the perfect setting for a memorable extended family getaway. Red Boiling Springs is steeped in rich history and is famous for its mineral waters, long believed to have healing properties. Travelers have come from around the world for over a century—and many still do—to experience them. The town once had dozens of hotels and boarding houses! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - One pet total (up to 20 lbs per pet) ### Suitability/Accessibility - 4 steps to reach entrance - Area rugs in public areas - No elevator - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, coffee/tea maker](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/56000000/55300000/55291200/55291107/ed939fff.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The BirdDog Farm Cabin #5 Dixon Springs - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 26 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-22&endDate=2025-11-23&selected=55291107&PinnedHotelID=55291107&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110410000/110403900/110403831/d35d8e0a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Country Colonial Retreat Red Boiling Springs - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-22&endDate=2025-11-23&selected=110403831&PinnedHotelID=110403831&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/88000000/87140000/87131300/87131264/48ea7e36.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Barn Loft Studio Suite Barndominium red boiling springs - Kitchen - Air conditioning - Parking available - Microwave 10 Exceptional 19 reviews CA $113 CA $195 total includes taxes & fees Nov 9 - Nov 10 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-09&endDate=2025-11-10&selected=87131264&PinnedHotelID=87131264&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior detail](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/49000000/48460000/48453400/48453360/98e15e74.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The BirdDog Farm Cabin #4 Dixon Springs - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 37 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-22&endDate=2025-11-23&selected=48453360&PinnedHotelID=48453360&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/49000000/48460000/48450700/48450676/ca31aa08.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### BirdDog Farm Cabin #2 Dixon Springs - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 86 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-22&endDate=2025-11-23&selected=48450676&PinnedHotelID=48450676&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/49000000/48460000/48453000/48452983/6ff9261d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The BirdDog Farm Cabin #1 Dixon Springs - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 51 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-22&endDate=2025-11-23&selected=48452983&PinnedHotelID=48452983&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/71000000/70400000/70390300/70390204/d7e09033.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Jackson House of Gamaliel Gamaliel - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 27 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-22&endDate=2025-11-23&selected=70390204&PinnedHotelID=70390204&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118390000/118383200/118383170/6a57e968_edited_361c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Gatehouse, 2-bedroom house in charming Gamaliel with WiFi, AC, pet friendly.
