This beautiful property is settled amid towering trees with views that sweep across a pristine stocked lake...the shimmering heart of the property.

Welcome to the most Picturesque and Private Cabin in all of Williamson County! The center of the cabin w/ a soaring vaulted ceiling & a massive stone fireplace anchor the space w/ rustic charm & windows frame peaceful views of the surrounding woods.

Welcome to the Fernvale Fishing Club and the star of the show, Idlehour Cabin!

This view shows the screen porch, the stone steps to the driveway and the entrance to one of the community docks on the lake.

This little gem with a rich history, originally built in the 1930s and thoughtfully renovated over the years.

Nestled in the rolling hills of western Williamson County, this rustic retreat is part of the coveted 105-acre Fernvale Fish Club, shared among just eight fortunate cabin owners.

This property is down a private gravel road leading to the main gate. Private and Secure.

This property, formally a hunting and fishing retreat, does not allow hunting but fishing is plentiful in the well stocked lake.

We are so excited to let you into this coveted exclusive property.

Stone steps lead you up a gentle rise, deep into the forest, where the cabin sits among giant trees and a wet spring creek to the left of the property.

A screened in porch is perfectly perched with lake views year-round.

This view is of the main cabin. Straight ahead is the door to the kitchen and the front door is to the right. How Charming is this!

This view shows a spacious multi-tiered deck wrapping around the cabin creating a perfect setting for entertaining friends and family under a canopy of trees.

Just steps away from the main cabin is the separate studio/sleeping cottage, which offers a world of possibilities—ideal for overnight guests, a creative art or writing space, or even your own personal yoga and wellness retreat.

The front doors ahead welcome you into the Idlehour Cabin. Welcome!

The doors open to pine-lined walls and ceilings that create a warm, cozy atmosphere, while the spacious great room allows for multiple seating arrangements, ideal for a gathering or relaxing by the fire.

Many games have been played on the gaming table. This room is warm and oh so cozy!

The stone stacked fireplace is wood burning. A stack of wood is waiting for you on the property.

An adorable winding staircase leads to the screen porch. When not needed it makes a great dog bed enclosure.

The fully functional kitchen features Formica countertops, a new GE electric stainless steel range w/ a ceramic cooktop. There is refrige and freezer. Two windows above the sink frame peaceful views of the lush rear of the property.

Behind these double doors is a large pantry with loads of shelves for can goods, treasures and supplies.

There is a wonderful and spacious walk-in pantry! There are loads of built-in shelves to hold your supplies, canned goods & entertaining accoutrements. The countertop matches the kitchen sand is a great space to hold extra kitchen appliances!

An eat-in kitchen features vaulted ceiling and sky light.

A charming bedroom in the treetops! There is room for a chest of drawers on each side wall.

The window views from this bedroom are spectacular.

The bathroom has been recently undergone a full renovation with new tile flooring, a pedestal sink, vanity lights, towel bars, and a subway tile surround in the tub/shower combination—all complemented by new plumbing fixtures and pex supply lines.

The studio/sleeping cottage is steps away from the main cabin. The walkway is lined in stone steps.

A new porch was added with a retaining wall! A perfect place to bird watch or take in the morning breeze.

The studio has so many functions, a world of possibilities: ideal for an overnight guest room, a bunk room, a creative art or writing space, music jam session or even your own personal yoga and wellness retreat.

Vaulted ceiling in the studio cottage adds volume and light to the crisp white walls, perfectly framing the vivid green of the surrounding woods. You have to see it in person to truly appreciate how special this cottage is. Perfection.

A new designed path leads to the water pump house, 500-gallon water take, and completely rebuilt spring house. The stones are laid in concrete with gravel surround.

Relax on the screen porch with access to the main cabin through the winding staircase in the corner of this photo. The porch has direct lake views!

Surrounded by lush woods, the lake features multiple community docks, perfect for launching a kayak or canoe. This dock has been recently upgraded with new deck boards and is freshly stained. This dock is directly in front of the Bradford cabin.

The close proximity of this dock to the Idlehour Cabin is IDEAL. A perfect location to add ease when launching your canoe or kayak.

What a great luxury to have your canoe and kayak cast off ready!

You would never know this 7-acre lake resides on this property. It is the STAR of the show.

A gravel drive winds past a view of the lake and leads to several of the other cabins on the property, though each one is thoughtfully sited for exceptional privacy.

Nearly every cabin enjoys the presence of babbling brooks, and the air carries the sound of water cascading over rocks—the peaceful sounds of nature.

This property is magical! Come take a private tour today!

Description

Do not enter the Property without an Appointment! An exclusive 105- acre gated community in lovely Williamson County. The Fernvale Fishing Club is a historic 1930' s- era retreat of just eight cabins in a pristine woodland surrounding a spring- fed lake just minutes from Nashville. Openings to join this idyllic enclave are very few and far between. Available for purchase for the first time in over 25 years, the Idlehour Cabin Compound ( cabin site # 7) consists of two cabins – a main cabin and a sleeping cottage/ studio – both overlooking the beautiful lake that is well- stocked for fishing. The Idlehour Cabin site is one of only three in the private enclave with a lakeview and one of only two with a dock in front of the cabin – making it a rare offering within a rare community. Remarkably, this sylvan Shangri- La is only 40 minutes from Midtown.
The Idlehour Cabin Compound recently went through numerous updates: New Roof on both structures, New Gutters & Downspouts, Freshly Painted Interior and Exterior including Trim, New GE Electric Range, Completely Renovated Bathroom, New Lighting Fixtures, New Spring House, New Pump and Pump House, Freshly Painted 500- gallon Water Tank. New Septic System. Additional Features: Screened Front Porch & a Large Stone Fireplace & Hearth is the STAR focal point of the living room. The dock, just steps from the main cabin, has been refurbished by our seller with new deck boards and 4 new cleats. Serene and secluded, this offering is a retreat offering Nature, Wildlife, & Cascading Waterfalls so close to Nashville, Leiper’s Fork, I- 840 & I- 40. You are tucked away in the woods and rarely see the other seven members, as this cannot be a primary residence, strictly a 11 month a year retreat. The bylaws state a restriction that you cannot live in the cabin for 12 consecutive months. Hunting is not permitted.
