Carolyn's cottage is nestled in a quiet neighborhood close to East Nashville (in Lockeland Heights). It had all the essentials provided (bath towels, soaps, and some suggestions for what to do in and around Nashville). The bathroom is a bit on the smaller side, with a stand-up shower stall and toilet. It does not have a sink, but you can either wash in the kitchen (on the other side of the cottage) or in the shower stall. The queen sized bed was comfortable, but a bit firm for my personal preference.
It was about a 10-15 minute car ride to Downtown, Broadway, and SoBro (usually about $8-$11). We were able to explore 5Points by foot from Carolyn's cottage. It was a nice little area with restaurants and shops and it was about a 10-15 minute walk in a hilly neighborhood. In planning for the trip, I found a couple of neat restaurants/bakeries/shops in the East Nashville side of town, so I'm glad we stayed at Carolyn's cottage.
Carolyn is very responsive and helpful on messages. She continually reached out to us to see if there was anything we needed. She checked in on us when we arrived and also throughout the weekend.
All in all, it was a good experience and staying at Carolyn's cottage gave us the quaint, residential feel that we were looking for in Nashville, especially given how crazy Broadway and Downtown can get. It was a nice getaway and I'm glad we chose it!
