About this property

Trolley Parton-Vintage TN Trolley Retreat. Dolly-Inspired

  • ❤️ FALL SPECIAL: Stay 2 nights, get your 3rd night FREE! 🚎 TROLLEY PARTON

    Meet Trolley Parton.

    A retired vintage trolley, rescued from its former life and brought 100 miles to five acres of Tennessee woodland and pasture, this little piece of history has been given a second life—and a whole lot of love.

    We spent two years transforming the old girl into an intimate retreat while keeping her original character intact.

    And because no Tennessee treasure could live here without a little Dolly, you’ll find thoughtful, unexpected touches throughout that pay homage to the Queen herself.

    ✨ THE TROLLEY

    The original powered trolley door is your entrance.

    Inside, vintage character meets modern comfort, with color, texture and details chosen to make the space feel collected rather than manufactured.

    There’s a queen bed, a cozy living area, a small library, a wine fridge, Keurig, tea, and honey.

    You’ll also find a record player and classic vinyl—because a vintage trolley deserves a soundtrack.

    🛁 SLOW DOWN

    At the back of the trolley is your bedroom suite with a deep sitting tub, robes, bath salts and everything you need to settle in.

    There’s also a dedicated Zen space for meditation, reading or simply checking out for a while.

    Trolley Parton was created for rest and renewal.

    🌲 OUTSIDE

    Step onto your sprawling 400-square-foot deck overlooking the rolling pasture and surrounding woods.

    Relax in the outdoor furniture, gather around the Solo Stove, watch a movie on the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth projector or simply listen to the sounds of the property.

    Deer wander through. Birds are everywhere. Wildflowers change with the seasons.

    💕 A LITTLE DOLLY

    Dolly isn’t a theme here. She’s an inspiration.

    You’ll find unique pieces throughout the trolley that celebrate Tennessee’s own Queen and the qualities we admire most: kindness, generosity, resilience and a big heart.

    If only the world could be a little more like Dolly, we’d be alright.

    🌊 EXPLORE

    Trolley Parton is in rural Doyle, about six miles from Sparta and close to some of Tennessee’s best waterfalls and outdoor adventures.

    Rock Island State Park is about 10 minutes away, with Fall Creek Falls and Cummins Falls within an easy drive.

    🐾 BRING YOUR PUP

    Well-behaved pets are welcome. Please check with us if you’re traveling with more than two.

    Two guests maximum.

    ❤️ COME ABOARD

    If you’re looking for a stay with history, personality, peace and a little Tennessee sparkle, choose your dates and climb aboard.

    Trolley Parton isn’t just a place to stay. She’s a story with a second life.

This is such a fun property! We loved every thoughtful detail and the bed is extremely comfortable. The operational entry doors are so much fun, and so much thought went into every aspect of the trolley! The hosts are so attentive and provide wonderful nearby suggestions. Don't miss out on the pizza place in Sparta...it's amazing! Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!!!

This trolley car was a perfectly curated blend of Dolly Parton meets the house from "Charmed". The bed was comfortable, the bathtub excellent, and the ambiance top notch. This is the perfect stay for a getaway and is close to many state parks. I look forward to booking it again in the future.

Such a great getaway

My son and I loved our stay. The trolley is decorated so cute, with small details that add so much character. The property is beautiful and the surrounding area is full of trails, state parks and waterfalls.

We absolutely loved our lil getaway to Trolley Parton! It was a surprise to my wife so she had no idea where we were staying. As soon as we pulled up she fell in love! She loved it even more as we walked around to the deck and went inside. Everything was clean and well maintained. Plenty of wood available for our nighttime fires. The hosts were very prompt in responding to any questions we had and we even got the chance to meet them, very nice ladies! Would definitely stay at the Trolley again, or even the Tree House, if we ever decide to go searching for waterfalls in that area again!

First Solo Getaway!

Booked as a spontaneous solo getaway and could not have been more perfect! The space was the perfect environment for a mental reset and the hosts were super sweet and accommodating! Close enough to hiking spots and some local restaurants if you choose to explore. Also felt extremely safe at the location! I’d love to come back or check out other properties owned by the hosts :)

Fun Experience

We were only able to stay for one night before going on the Mammoth March hike at Fall Creek Falls, but it was an awesome experience! I would love to come back and stay for a weekend with nice weather (it was raining)! The trolley was so cozy and the sound of the rain on the roof was nice and relaxing! We would love to come back and enjoy the outdoor amenities they have to offer! The hosts were great and everything was set up with so much care and intention! I would definitely recommend a stay at the Trolley Parton!

Great place to stay

We loved the trolley! It was a unique and fun place to stay. Comfortable bed. A few issues. We didn't know where the seat covers were so our outside furniture got wet because it rained. The projector to watch movies had terrible quality but the owner said they would fix for the next guest. They needed to have more splenda and creamer for our 2 night stay for our coffee. Would highly recommend if you like the decorations in the property details. It's worth it.

Amazing, in a great spot! Both hilarious and romantic.

Dude, it's TROLLEY PARTON. How could you not love a spot dedicated to the queen of country? So many things to love. Very peaceful location - private but not TOO private. Even in the humid TN heat, the trolley stayed cool and comfy. It's decorated with whimsy and a bit of romance. My partner put a record on, brought me a cold glass of tea, and I soaked my cares away in the BEST tub. If you like the outdoors, perfectly located amidst bountiful state parks. We made it to Burgess and Falls Creek and highly recommend both, but be prepared to hike for the full experience. Dress to get wet if you wanna swim in the falls. ANYWAY, Rachel and Steph were super helpful in tips, not just in the Doyle area but also around Nashville. LOVE. Vibes immaculate. BOOK THE TROLLEY.
