Kid-friendly vacation rentals in DeKalb County

The host’s driving directions were perfect. Check-in was easy. The house was great, especially the game room and hot tub. Full kitchen for cooking with plenty of cooking and eating ware. Great hosts and quick responses. They even left the kids some hidden Easter eggs to celebrate the holiday. Will definitely stay again if we return to the area.

This house is beautiful with new, clean finishes. The location is peaceful and quiet with beautiful scenery. The hosts were super helpful and responsive, even offering to bring me supplies during a power outage. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Perfect place to stay and explore nearby hiking trails and waterfalls. Everything was exactly as pictured and there were plenty of activities to keep us occupied! We had a great weekend at the Evergreen Lodge!

This is a great place to stay. I've been here a few times and have no complaints!

We didn’t want to leave!! The rental was clean, comfortable, and relaxing. We enjoyed the fishing pond, the paddle boat, and the hot tub on multiple occasions! The kitchen was spotless and the beds, very comfortable. The hosts were quick to respond to any questions and went out of their way to make us feel welcome! As my family suffers from fragrance allergies we appreciated the lack of perfumes and plug ins. We visited The Farmhouse Finds antiques and food business also run by the hosts and were welcomed with hospitality like I’ve never experienced before. The kitchen and bathrooms were equipped with all the necessities. In our next visit to TN we will be booking this rental again!

Very cute little home that was perfect for our overnight stay. Loved seeing the cows out back.

We had an amazing time with our family and friends before they head back to college/work. Our boat is at Hurricane Marina and the drive there was less than 15 minutes- which was very nice! We enjoyed playing pool and games. House had everything you needed and was clean and comfortable! We highly recommend this place and Michelle was super responsive! Thank you for sharing!

Amatore’s place is fantastic! It was so clean and had everything that we needed. He was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. The house is beautiful, plenty of space for all of us. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious as well with double sinks. It is private and a great area to walk. There is also a nice playground that you can walk to. We will definitely be back!

This location was extremely convenient for my needs. The space was cute albeit somewhat eclectic. I found the space comfortable.

I've stayed at this place three times now, and I can honestly say it's hands-down the coolest spot around. Modern, stylish, and super comfortable—everything about it just works. Every time I come back, it feels like a perfect little escape. Jon and Judy are absolute rockstars. They're the kind of hosts that just get it—friendly, thoughtful, and always make sure everything is top-notch. You can tell they care about every detail, and it shows. If you're looking for a place that's a step above the rest, this is it. Can't wait for stay number four!

The place was great and with in walking dusted of several restaurants and bars downtown.

Located in the historic downtown area, this place is very spacious, comfortable and tastefully decorated. There are so many places to dine and grab delicious coffee. The hosts were beyond accommodating with my stay! I definitely would stay here again!

Had a nice time at Rachel’s place. It was a good size and we had no issues!

Clean and CUTE accommodations—inside and out. And a perfect location on the main highway. Jeff was an excellent host!

This is my second time staying at John and Abby’s and it was just as great as the first time. The accommodations are accurate & more than I could ask for, check-in/out is super easy and quick, and they are very quick to respond to any questions or just to check in if you need anything. Location is very close to TN Tech, downtown Cookeville, and only about 15 min to Cummins Falls State Park. I plan to come back again next year and stay with them again!

Great place to stay in town! Very central and the host was very helpful with his list of places to visit and restaurant recommendations. Had a great time!

Great location and very comfortable accommodations! We will definitely stay again.

We had a great few days at Sonya's condo. These condos have some of the best views on the entire lake, and her condo may have the best view in the complex. We love the location to the marina (1 mile), so it's quick and easy to get on the water. There was plenty of room in the place for our family, and the community pool was a nice benefit when we just wanted to relax and catch some sun! I would say the pictures were accurate (except the view in person is better), and Sonya was great to work with.

Had a good stay here! It was very easy to check-in and the host was super responsive. The place even had pots, skillets, etc. which was nice we didn’t have to bring our own or buy anything (except it didn’t have a 9 by 13 pan which I could’ve used). This place was perfect for what was needed!

Valerie's place was just what my husband and a couple of our friends needed when visiting a friend in Murfreesboro for the weekend! "Amazing host, would definitely stay there again!"

We were in town for a wedding and wanted a nice place to stay and this fit the bill! It was easy to find, very clean, and felt cozy. The upstairs neighbor does have some squeaky floorboards, but I don’t fault Blair for that! A good place to stay overall.

Was a last minute decision to stay in town, host was quick to respond and provide information. Lovely downtown stay, many shops, everyone was friendly, we had a wonderful quick getaway!

I was in Cookeville for work and the place was very close to the office. I like places that have a full kitchen so I can cook. This place was great for that. Very quiet neighbors. I would definitely recommend Marshall’s apartment.

We stayed for 2 nights 4 adults. Mitchell's place was just right. We really enjoyed meeting him and talking. Rented the pontoon boat which was great. Already thinking about when we would return. Would recommend staying at this property.
