This is the only Airbnb in the area with private river access. The space Looking for a scenic escape just outside Nashville? 🦪 The riverbank here isn’t just scenic—it’s alive. The Harpeth supports over 85 species of fish and more than 30 species of freshwater mussels, making it one of the most biodiverse rivers in the region. Shell hunting isn’t just for Florida—visitors often spend hours wandering the beach, discovering the unique river shells that wash ashore. Whether you’re skipping rocks, spotting herons, or watching your kids splash at the edge, you’ll feel immersed in something special. ☀️ Rise slow. The back deck faces east, so mornings here come with sunrise over the river, fog lifting off the lawn, and birdsong you don’t hear in the city. A sleek modern pergola offers shade by day and soft ambiance by night. Fire up the propane grill, gather around the Solo Stove (firewood provided), and watch the string lights glow as the stars roll in. 🍳 Cook big, or not at all. The kitchen is large, open, and stocked for real meals—from midnight snacks to Thanksgiving spreads. We’ve included all the good stuff: quality knives, cookware, serving dishes, and the little tools most Airbnbs forget. The dining table seats 8 with room to linger. For morning rituals, we’ve got a drip coffee maker, espresso machine, French press, and electric kettle—caffeine is sacred here. 🛋️ Lounge like you mean it.

Our ever-growing game closet includes playing cards, Giant UNO, and Cards Against Humanity for the adults. We also provide plenty of beach towels for river adventures. 🛏️ Rest easy. Three cozy bedrooms feature brand-new mattresses, cool Eucalyptus sheets, linen bedding, and more pillows than anyone really needs (but always appreciates). Each room includes a tower fan for white noise and comfort. The rooms are snug and minimal by design—just what you need, nothing you don’t. Two air mattresses, and two pack n plays are available for extra sleepers (air mattresses best suited for the primary bedroom or living room). 🚙 Stay grounded. We’re tucked into a quiet, safe neighborhood with ample driveway parking and a Ring doorbell camera for added peace of mind. Whether you’re here for nature, connection, or just a much-needed reset, we’re honored to host your stay at Riverbend Ranch. We hope you leave rested, reconnected, and maybe just a little sandy from a good day on the river.
