Hey, Nashville. You know NASHtoday as the free newsletter in your inbox each morning, packed with the most uplifting and impactful local news. Our team highlights the best of our city — from events and new businesses to exciting developments and the amazing people who call Music City home.

We have incredible advertising partners that support our mission to bring only the most positive local news and events to Nashville, but sustaining a modern media company requires much more. That’s why we’ve created this reader-driven campaign, with a goal to raise $2,500 over the next 10 days. If you’ve enjoyed being subscribed to NASHtoday, found a life-changing concert in our Events section, used our City Guides to plan perfect days with family, or impressed your dinner guests with all the details of that new development you read about — we couldn’t be more honored to be part of your life. And we’re calling on you now to help support our mission.

A few reminders about who we are:

We curate local news. No matter which news outlet, community organization, small business, or reader breaks the story — the most positive local news and events worth your attention are curated into our daily newsletter. Our dedicated City Editors live, work, and play in Nashville, carrying out our mission to highlight the incredible small businesses, non-profits, and city programs you want to hear about.

We’re committed to maintaining our readers’ trust. Fun fact: Our parent company 6AM City has turned down more than a million dollars in political ads since we started — we’re that serious about our brand promise. We think reading about what’s going on in your city should be a positive experience, not something that rockets your blood pressure before you’ve even started your day.

The truth is, we love what we do. Sharing the most positive local news and events with our readers fuels us every day. If you’ve felt the love for our product too, help us today with a one-time contribution that supports local storytelling.

🏠 Home sweet home-away-from-home

We all need a staycation or a trip to a different city from time to time. Whether you’re a Nashvillian feeling a little cooped up or a visitor looking for a special Music City experience, picking the perfect home away from home is crucial.

We went looking for unique regional lodgings that capture this Nashville spirit. So choose your ideal digs, pack your bags, and get ready for a memorable getaway.

Farm charm

Forest Gully Farms | Santa Fe
Reservations give you access to all three cedar Gully huts on the secluded property. Spend your stay hiking to the creek and waterfalls, foraging the veggie garden, and hanging out by the firepit.

Pet-friendly property | Goodlettsville
No pet fee is required, and Fido will have treats, bowls, and a fenced yard. There are perks for humans, too — a coffee bar, patio, and cozy furnishings.

Silo farm stay | Mt. Juliet
This converted grain silo has central heat and air, a stocked kitchenette, and a winding staircase leading to the bedroom. Bonus: You can truly unplug because there isn’t access to Wi-Fi or TV.

As seen on TV

Boat stay featured on “Tennessee Crossroads” | Springfield
No water required for this stay. Step out on the boat deck to overlook the fishing pond or explore the property’s hiking trails.

Heidtke House | Southeast Nashville
Not only was this home included on international travel show “Sense of Place,” the neighborhood it’s located in is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Retreats on the water

Lakeside cottage | Lebanon
Situated on Old Hickory Lake with a two-tier back patio space with grills and a firepit, this cozy space puts all of its 600 sqft to use. No, really — a bedroom, pull out couch, and loft area provide room for up to four guests.
