This was our second stay at Yellow Creek and it was amazing once again! Just the friendliest people you will ever meet! Property is beautiful with trails through the beautiful landscape. If you like nature, this is your place.
Thank you so much for hosting us again, can't wait to come back!
What a unique home and property! Where you can you stay in bonafide cabin replete with animal mounts (it's like a museum) and vintage decor but with all the modern conveniences to make for a comfortable stay. To top it off, you would be hard pressed to find a more hospitable and helpful host/owner than Jerry and his wife! Not only are they top of the shelf hosts, it's worth your time to draw out of them their life experiences. Talk about unique!
This is our 2nd stay with Jerry and we enjoyed ourselves just as much as I remember. Canoed the creek, barbecued for supper, hiked the trails and roasted hotdog & marshmallow around the fire while catching up with old friends.
Jerry and his wife have quite the hidden gem with this listing. If you want seclusion and quite this is the place. The history behind the cabin property is very cool and the daily visit of the turkeys, that you see outside the windows of the cabin, was neat being an outdoorsman. Jerry is a very gracious and hospitable host and will go out of his way to ensure you get what you need. Will definitely be back to try the creek fishing more as this trip just had to much going on with a Wedding. Worth the visit for sure.
We’ve traveled the world and rented in many places, but this is the first property we’ve gone back to for another stay. We love the location, the acres of trails, the fishing hole (especially great for kids), and the serenity. Jerry and Janice are wonderful hosts and extremely knowledgeable about the area. A must stay!
Great spot for a more relaxed batchelor party experience
The best kept cabin I've ever stayed in. The beautiful remote property features so much to do without ever having to leave. A great place to have peace and quiet while celebrating a dear friend entering holy matrimony, or a family getaway. We certainly plan on coming back.
We had a wonderful time hiking, playing in the creek and just spending quality time with our kids. The cabin is amazing and the property is beautiful. Jerry and Janice have put a lot of work into Yellow Creek Retreat and it shows.
We had a great time at Jerry and Janice's cabin! They are so nice and thoughtful, they found out it was our anniversary and had a cake there waiting. They were also able to get a great babysitter so we could go enjoy Nashville just my husband and I! So many great things to do there!
This is a very neat place. The history is absolutely amazing, gorgeous property, gorgeous home the owners couldn't have been any better hosts.
Janice did an amazing job setting up a beautiful tables by the barn. Jerry was an excellent host showing us the properties history and allowing us to visit the blue hole
We have stayed in several different cabins, this by far was the best one we have rented, the owner met us upon arrival, and was available for us if we needed anything, explained everything that was available, went above and beyond to insure our stay was a true experience

Perfect place to relax!
This property is perfect! Plenty of room both inside and outside. A quiet setting away from it all but close enough to town to get anything you might need. The cabin is beautiful! And the fire pit outside is magnificent! I would spend every night here if I could! Thanks for your hospitality, Jerry!
My family and I had the most wonderful time at this beautiful retreat. It's perfectly located with beautiful surroundings and a nice creek that you can hear while sitting out on the spacious porch at night. The grandchildren enjoyed playing in the creek. There is a wonderful firepit where you can gather around a fire at night with friends or family. The host is the best and very friendly and provided everything that we needed. We can't wait to get together again at this lovely and perfectly located log house.
This remarkably restored, one-of-a-kind cabin is located on one of the most breathtaking plots of land in Tennessee!!! The Crawfords have succeeded in creating a private Smokey Mountain masterpiece right here in the rolling hills of Middle TN! They are fantastic hosts who can recount in detail the history surrounding this cabin and the adjoining lands. If you like to retreat in style with all the modern day trimmings and enjoy nature in all its glory, you MUST visit this place!
The spacious property is nice for all ages. The hot, humid temps were not even noticed while we swam in the crystal clear swimming hole and the creek. Jerry and Janice were great hosts! The fire pit was a hit each evening! Thanks for providing a place for our family memories.
Jerry was such a great host, sorry we didnt get a chance to meet Janice. Beautiful property. Exactly what we were looking for!!!!!! Thank you so much! We will for sure be back. This property is heaven for little boys to do boy things!

What a Great Place
It was such a Beautiful place! The inside and outside was gorgeous!! The craftsmanship and beautiful decor was homey and welcoming. Jerry and Janice didn’t miss a thing...even saved us fresh tomatoes from the garden in the back yard!! We saw wild turkey and deer. Fished in the creek, & for us Arizona people it was a treat to see Fire Flies too! It was a perfect vacation and we can’t wait to make it back next year!!!
This rental is a hidden treasure! Only a short drive to Nashville and was in a perfect central location for our needs. The master bedroom has the most comfortable bed i’ve ever slept in. I’m quite picky ability cleanliness and the house was in immaculate shape! Property owners were very accommodating and helpful in making sure we had everything we needed. We made memories here that will last a lifetime, and can’t wait to go again!
Jerry was a wonderful host. Very prompt with any questions or concerns that arose during our stay. The cabin was beautifully decorated and very clean. The family really enjoyed our outdoor time walking trails, playing in the creek in front of the cabin, and playing basketball and horseshoes.
The fishing was also excellent. My husband, his father, and brother caught at least 10 fish each on their canoeing trip on the Yellow River. Hopefully, we will be back in the spring!
Everything about this house is amazing. The bedding is the most comfortable we have had in any rental. Jerry and Janice and extremely friendly and add special touches to the vacation. They meet us at the house at check in and showed us around the property, 163 acres, and told us about all the little secret places to fish, kayak, and swim. Truly a wonderful relaxing week. Thank you.

Why they chose this property
Old house was on the property when I bought it, so I moved it to save and restore. It is one of a kind with so much detail in finishing the home. Decorating it was a blast according to my wife. Watch out for the brown bear standing in the dogtrot.
What makes this property unique
Private 185 acres to explore. Joins a private 4000 acre game preserve . Visit old house site where the cisterns still intact with cold spring water running 24 hrs a day. Set in rocker on front porch with a glass of wine and chill out while sun goes down and watch kids play in the creek. Very serene.
