Sophisticated lounge with leather seating, fireplace, and stunning library wall

Polo Lodge near Nashville, Columbia TN, from $146 a night, before cleaning, tax and fees

We own nine houses across Tennessee, Pennsylvania and Texas, and we look after every one of them ourselves. Booking here costs about 10 percent less than the same nights on a listing site, because nobody is taking a cut on the way through.

The same house, for less

A listing site adds its commission to the nightly rate, then charges it on the cleaning fee as well. On a three night weekend that is $70 to $210 depending on the house. Checked 2026-08-31.

You are talking to the owners

There is no front desk and no call centre. If something is wrong at midnight you are messaging the people whose house it is, and it gets sorted.

Paying here is safe

Checkout runs on Hospitable, who take the payment, handle the lodging tax and verify every guest. Every booking made this way comes with damage protection. We never see a card number.
