General Overview

If you love nature or homeschool-look no further!! We live in the perfect blend of peaceful country living and small-town charm—just ten minutes from the heart of Cookeville, Tennessee. Known as the home of over 150 waterfalls, this area is a dream for nature lovers who enjoy hiking, floating down scenic rivers, boating on lakes or splashing in clear mountain creeks. Our home is a kid-friendly homestead complete with a saltwater pool, chickens, fruit trees, and a garden. Even if you don't have kids, It's a haven for anyone looking to slow down, soak in nature, and still enjoy the comforts of town nearby.

The Space

Our home offers spacious living for families or groups. There are two floors—upstairs includes cozy bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a comfortable living area with views of the surrounding countryside. Downstairs has office space, a washer and dryer, and leads to a carport with bikes for your use. We also have a separate play room/homeschool room for the kids. Outside is where the fun begins: a large patio with a wood-burning fireplace, lounge seating, a saltwater in-ground pool, a zipline, trampoline, and a playscape for the kids. The garden and small orchard provide fresh produce when in season, and you'll enjoy the peaceful presence of our backyard chickens.

Guest Access

Guests will have access to both levels of the home. The basement includes office space, laundry facilities, and a walkout to the carport where bikes are available for local exploring. Also the kids have their own separate playroom room where we have lots of toys, games and craft area. The outdoor amenities—pool, fireplace patio, trampoline, zipline, and garden—are all yours to enjoy.

Notes

We are a family-friendly home with plenty to keep both kids and adults entertained. You may occasionally hear a rooster in the morning or spot deer at dusk. We kindly ask that guests treat our animals and garden with respect. We’ll leave instructions for caring for the chickens if you're open to collecting eggs. Otherwise, we can arrange for a neighbor to stop by. I love our central location. We are 1 hour from Nashville, 1 1/2 hours from Knoxville and 2 hours from Chattanooga. We are a homeschool family that travels often. We run a non profit homeschool Co-op nature school here.

Neighbourhood

Our neighborhood is peaceful and rural, with friendly neighbors and wide-open skies. Across the street is a 100+ acre property, giving the area a spacious and private feel. Yet just 10 minutes down the road, you’ll find the vibrant downtown of Cookeville—complete with local boutiques, restaurants, and charming ice cream shops. There are also nearby hiking trails, rivers for tubing, and of course, waterfalls everywhere you turn.

Getting to my home

The best way to reach our home is by car. If you’re flying in, Nashville International Airport is about 1 hour away by car. Once you're here, a personal vehicle is the easiest way to explore everything Cookeville and the surrounding region have to offer. We have a driveway for parking.

ELYSE

Hi there! We are a homeschooling and traveling family of four. We currently live in beautiful Tennessee, surrounded by hiking, rivers, lakes, waterfalls and so much nature! We run a homeschool Co-op nature school here locally but travel as much as we can outside of that. We have had someone stay at our home and watch our pets but have never house swapped and would love the opportunity to do so.
