Why you should stay: Is this a cool place to glamp in Nashville, or a 1960s time machine?

- Minimum stay: 2 nights
- Rates from: $135/night
Break out your tie-dye t-shirt and your miniskirts, ’cause this retro Shasta Airflyte is a blast from the past.

For its small size, the Airflyte still offers two beds and a bathroom with a shower.

8. Serenity House
Why you should stay: A lux home rental with all the perks of a treehouse.
- Location: McEwen
- Sleeps: 4
- Minimum stay: 1 night
- Rates from: $185/night
Serenity House is a luxury treehouse with a contemporary feel and plenty of space as well as loads of amenities. The white-washed wood walls are a nice break from the wood-on-wood-on-wood, brown-on-brown-on-brown theme in many treehouses, as are the dark finishes and industrial-style accents.
The treehouse’s bottom floor boasts a small dining area, a kitchen, and a larger seating area with a comfortable leather sofa. Climb the ladder to get to the upstairs loft sleeping area, which is more private than you’d think for being a loft. And you get a stylish indoor bathroom, too.
If you decide to leave the treehouse, you’ll find plenty to enjoy on the surrounding farm, from swimming or fishing in the pond to visiting the resident barnyard animals, including some friendly Highland cows. This is a good place to glamp in Nashville if you have a larger group as there are several rentals on the property, all of which are linked to in the Airbnb listing.
The treehouse is a spectacular place to get away from it all, too, with its lack of W-Fi and minimal cell service (there’s not even a TV in the treehouse). Talk about true serenity!
