About this property

Memorable, 3mi to downtown, retro fun packed with extras, porch lights & music

Slightly Off Retreat is truly a gem: peaceful, comfortable, close to everything! A unique, fun apartment that features a full bath, 2 bedrooms (queen and full beds), huge den, kitchen and laundry room. Most guests find it hard to leave the covered porch with the idyllic view.
This is an unusual find in historic Lockeland Springs, situated next to Shelby golf course with wooded acreage behind. Enjoy the view and solitude while being only minutes away from the Country Music Hall of Fame, museums, and more. Downtown is 3 miles away (Uber/Lyft is easy & affordable), but much is in walking and biking distance -- Coffee shops, amazing restaurants, bakeries, bars and shops.
Located on the bottom level of a beautiful East Nashville home, Slightly Off is completely separated from the owner's residence upstairs, with its own entrance, driveway and carport. You will find board games, books, WiFi, ROKU TV, DVD/VHS/CD players & DVDs/VHSs to play. And because it’s music city, a guitar, banjo, and djembe are in the apartment. A stage sits in the back yard that hosts house concerts (don't worry. not during your stay;)
Shelby Park is a large city park a few blocks away; it features a public golf course, driving range, tennis courts, playgrounds, duck pond, ball fields, and walking paths in the wetlands preserve. Shelby Bottoms has miles of green ways to walk, jog, or bike alongside the Cumberland River. In the immediate neighborhood, you will find great local art, shop cool boutiques and eat at fantastic restaurants.

Great place!

Very nice place that is conveniently tucked away in East Nashville. Easy Uber ride downtown or walking distance to the Five Points. The highlight, in my opinion, is the carport hangout area. View of the golf course, comfy chairs to sit and have morning coffee or beers at night. Next time I’m in Nashville, I’ll definitely want to try and stay here again.

Great place in East Nashville

Slightly Off Retreat is the perfect place to stay for a visit. It’s in a hip transitioning neghborhood in East Nashville that is a quick Uber ride to downtown and lower Broadway. The apartment itself is clean and cozy. Very cute and eclectic decor, great patio with Christmas lights where you can hang out. Kelli was very accommodating even though she wasn’t in town. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks Kelli!

Home away from home

What an amazing property to spend a weekend with your friends! Everything was nice, clean and organized for us when we arrived. Probably the best part was waking up in the mornings on the porch overlooking the golf course, listening to music, and spending time with friends! The fire place was a great addition, which we used two nights in a row. Kelli was amazing and even came down a couple time to check up on us! By far one of the best rental properties I’ve been to in a long time

The coolest stay in Nashville

This is a beautiful one-of-a-kind property in a great location with an exceptional host. Kelli thought of everything when furnishing this place with all kinds of fun games, instruments, and retro décor that will keep you entertained even on a rainy day. Outdoor area includes a cozy heated hangout space and a gorgeous view of a sprawling golf course. It was about a 10 - 15 minute drive to everything we wanted to do, which included downtown Nashville, Broadway, the Grand Ole Opry and the beautiful Gaylord Opryland Resort (worth exploring for a lunch or dinner date!), the Parthenon and Centennial Park, Nissan Stadium, Belmont Mansion, and much more! Had a great time here with my wife on our first trip to Nashville together and we can't wait to come back.

Beyond Expectations

The location of this rental can be described as “ideal” for whatever your interests are while visiting. Kelli’s home overlooks a golf course providing beautiful sunrise/sunsets for your enjoyment from the personal patio but yet close to all the attractions Nashville has to offer. If you are a walker/runner don’t miss the beautiful Shelby Park with its miles & miles of hiking/running trails, less than a mile from the rental. Downtown is a short distance away, about 2.5 miles & Uber is an inexpensive, easy, safe way to get to/from. The apartment itself is stocked with all the extras; shampoo, conditioner, abundance of towels, etc. One of my favorites is the high end washer & dryer provided & it’s all yours!! Along with the cleanliness of the apartment the decorations certainly reflect Nashville history. We would HIGHLY recommend this hidden gem and hopefully can return to Kelli’s little piece of paradise in Nashville soon. Thank you Kelli for helping create beautiful memories!!

About the host

Hosted by Kelli Katrice Gore

Host profile image
I've been a resident of East Nashville, specifically historic Lockeland Springs, since 1996. Grew up in Nashville -- LOVE my city and this neighborhood, in particular. I'm a realtor who has had a BLAST since 2013 renting to folks from all over the world.

Why they chose this property

Independent, creative, odd-ball spirit embues this neighborhood and that's right up my alley. It's given birth to a terrific restaurant and shopping scene. Shelby park and Shelby Bottoms (a wetland preserve) are a few blocks over and offer great walking and biking trails.

What makes this property unique

The apartment looks out on historic Shelby golf course. Incredibly unique to stare out over quiet rolling hills as the sun comes up or moon rises. The carport is awesome and the porch is superb.
