Cottage 310 | Infrared Sauna, King Bed, Kayaks & Fishing | House in Gallatin
1 Bedroom House in Gallatin
Peaceful 1-Bedroom Lake Retreat with King Bed, Sauna, Kayaks & Firepit
Cottage 310 at The Cozy Cottage on Old Hickory Lake is a peaceful, spa-inspired retreat designed for two guests seeking rest, reconnection, and quiet lake living. With a king suite, infrared dry sauna, deck, firepit, and kayaks, it’s an intimate hideaway that feels a world away — yet just 35 minutes from downtown Nashville.
The Cozy Cottage isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a place to exhale.
Sip morning coffee as sunlight glimmers on the water, paddle across the calm cove, or unwind by the firepit under a star-filled Tennessee sky. This private retreat in Gallatin, Tennessee is pet-friendly, personally cared for by its owners, and intentionally designed for peace.
The Space
Welcome to Cottage 310, a 1-bedroom, 1-bath lakefront retreat — once an old fishing cabin, now lovingly restored into a calm, private escape.
Access to the main living level is via exterior stairs to the deck. Once inside, all living spaces are on a single level. The lower level interior of the home is closed during your stay, ensuring no shared spaces and no other guests.
Once you arrive and step out onto the deck, the pace softens immediately. You’ll hear the gentle ripple of the lake, birds across the cove, and the hush of wind through the trees. Inside, cedar-lined walls and warm light create a calm, welcoming space where every detail has been intentionally prepared — not just managed, but truly cared for.
Indoor Living
• Cedar-lined living room with lake views
• Fully equipped kitchen with granite counters, quality cookware & a take-some/leave-some pantry
• Coffee bar with pods, teas, syrups & travel mugs
• Dining area for two
• Grand king bedroom with spa-style bath & thoughtful touches
• Infrared red-light therapy dry sauna, towel warmer, spa slippers & Turkish cotton robes
Laundry access is available by request for longer stays (3+ nights). Local laundromats are nearby.
Outdoor Spaces
The deck is where this lakeside retreat truly shines. Overlooking the cove and Sunset Island, it’s perfect for morning coffee, quiet meals, and watching the light move across the water.
Below, the lower patio offers a fire table, comfortable seating, and an easy path just 57 steps to the dock and water’s edge, where you can kayak, fish, or simply sit and listen.
The cove is calm and protected — geese glide by in the morning, turtles sun themselves in the afternoon, deer wander through the yard most evenings, and a small fox is a frequent (and beloved) visitor.
End the night around the wood-burning firepit, where stars reflect across the lake and the world finally goes quiet.
Thoughtful Touches & Comforts
Every stay includes simple comforts that make travel easy:
• Kayaks, life vests & fishing gear
• Indoor and Lawn games & extra blankets
• Wi-Fi, Smart TV, heating & air conditioning
• Coffee, teas & cocoa stocked at the bar
• S’mores station for the firepit
• On-site parking
The space feels ready when you arrive — calm, welcoming, and unhurried.
If you fall in love with the setting (and many guests do), you’re always welcome back another time to enjoy the full four-bedroom Cozy Cottage with family or friends.
