If your Disney princess spirit animal is Briar Rose (aka Sleeping Beauty), we just found your next vacation spot. Nestled in a six-acre forest just 30 minutes south of Nashville is Storybook Cottage, a rental so charming, you'll want to live there happily every after. Quaint details like the painted poplar wood floors, cathedral ceiling, and stacked stone wall lend a fairy-tale vibe, but the fully stocked kitchen, DirecTV, and washer and dryer provide modern comforts. The cottage provides 800 square feet of living space, including one bedroom with a king-size bed, a loft sleeping space, and one bathroom, but the covered porch, outdoor fire pit, and private outdoor shower offer plenty of reasons to venture outdoors.
If you can't make it to Tennessee, live your fairy-tale fantasy vicariously through these ridiculously pretty pictures!

A look at the main living room from the loft. How cute is the yellow and white diamond-patterned floor?

Slipcover seating, a chandelier, and drapes make the space feel rustic and cozy yet elegant.

We love the addition of the oversize lantern sconces — so cool and unexpected! Because the staircase is steep, a pull-out sofa can accommodate small children.

This eating nook has the perfect view.

The kitchen is the perfect mix of function and beauty. Love the open shelves filled with white china!

Instead of candlelight, this lamp offers the modern perks of electricity with old-fashioned style.

The baby-blue accent wall lends just enough color to the master bedroom. Check out the antique bingo wheel!
