A Comforting, Thoughtful, and Beautiful Stay
I had such a comforting and peaceful visit at Kelly and Randy’s home in Goodlettsville. From the moment I arrived, I could feel the love and care they’ve put into creating this space. The home was beautifully decorated with so many thoughtful touches—from a fully stocked fridge with coffee and tea, to snacks, to bath essentials that made me feel pampered and at ease.One of my favorite parts of the stay was the sunroom—cozy, warm, and filled with light. The scenery surrounding the house is absolutely lovely, and I especially enjoyed the company of a sweet black cat named Moki who wandered around outside. As a cat lover, this little interaction truly made my day.The bed was super comfortable, with soft pillows and everything I needed for a great night's sleep. And the bathroom! A gorgeous clawfoot tub made it feel like a spa retreat.It’s peaceful, quiet, and welcoming—Kelly and Randy are wonderful hosts, and you can tell they’ve created this place with intention and kindness. I truly can’t recommend it enough and would absolutely come back again. Thank you for such a restorative and special stay!

Perfect little weekens getaway
Book it! We actually don't live terribly far from the area but, my husband and I wanted to get away for the weekend to celebrate our anniversary. This place was perfect. The owners are great and we were greeted upon arrival, shown everything, and then left to our stay. The space is adorable and has such a homey feel and almost takes you back in time. The owners have everything stocked if you need or want anything including some snacks and drinks if you want to indulge, and bath and body products in case you forgot your's or just want to try them out (great products). It was relaxing and just what we needed. Bed is comfy and the hot tub was a great addition. Highly recommend this for a weekend getaway or extended stay. It was perfect!

A little off the beaten path but just what we needed. Randy and Kelly were amazing! Randy met us when we got there and showed us everything. Said they wouldn’t bother us but would be available if we needed anything. Kelly has the place stocked with snacks and it is so cozy!

Awesome Stay Near Nashville
We have been fortunate to have had mostly very good experiences with hosts, but NOBODY can beat Randy and Kelly. They were absolutely fantastic, and the snacks, drinks, and coffee were amazing. The property is immaculate, and the check in and out process was awesome. You need to be able to go up and down one flight of stairs, but as long as you’re able to do that I would recommend this place to anyone. It was absolutely first rate. We’d love to come back!

Definitely stay here if you can!!!
A friend and I headed to Nashville for a concert and this place was just what we needed! Decor was perfection, the king bed was super comfortable and the owners were wonderful. The place is truly as comfortable, relaxing and welcoming as it looks. We were both able to log on and get some work done while we were there. The private hot tub was just what we needed at the end of those long days walking around Nashville!

Sweetest Getaway for Two!
Such a thoughtful owner provided this well-decorated little haven for us. All furniture/ furnishings were very comfortable. I appreciated the check-in process & having the opportunity to ask questions. My husband loved it, too. We were sad that we didn’t take some time in the hot tub.

A vacation we will never forget
Our Stay at the Primitive Path Getaway was a wonderful experience. To start our Hosts were so welcoming and helpful during our stay. The home itself was decorated with antiques that help create a warm welcoming mood that felt like home. We also enjoyed the sunroom to sit and talk and enjoy the nature that surrounded the property. There is also a hot tub which we spent time in under the stars to finish off our days.Definitely recommend staying here and we will also be staying here again in the future.
