Tom’s place was perfect for me traveling with my dog. She travels well, but we aren’t from a heavily populated area so we like to stay quiet places away from the commotion that have easy access to places I want to go, which Toms was. It is off of a busy road, but the road it is actually on is very quiet. It’s a little neighborhood of older homes with friendly neighbors. It is VERY close to the airport, but I didn’t hear any planes (6 min drive to pick up and drop my friend off). It is only a 12-18 minute drive/$12 Uber to all the places we wanted to go- Broadway, The Gulch, 12South, East Nashville. It isn’t really near anything other than a gas station, so for dinner and such you’d have to make that super easy drive. But there are plenty of doordash options for groceries or dinner if you didn’t want to go out.
The yard was huge and totally fenced in, so my dog absolutely loved it! But just for reference- it’s not like a super landscaped yard that I’d plan to do anything in other than run around with the dog. No patio or anything (not at all an issue, just to be aware if you are looking for a place with a yard to use for anything specific or hang out in).
I just went for a quick trip for a concert at the Bridgestone, but I’d definitely stay long term if I come back for a travel nurse contract.
