You've probably driven by the historic Cool Springs House at Crockett Park before. It is available for rental for receptions and community gatherings. Part of the second floor includes a large conference room ideal for workshops and business retreats.
Brentvale, originally sat on Old Smyrna Road and was the original home site of William Temple Sneed, the seventh child of James Sneed. The home was constructed in 1830 and in the 1930’s enlarged by joining two log cabins. Over the years the home was expanded as different owners occupied it. The home was occupied by Larry and Janis Gatlin. When they sold the property to Roger and Barbara Mick in 1993, Mick gifted the original log house, the core of the home, to the city and paid for it to be moved and assembled at Crockett Park.
Back in July 2022, Brentwood City Commission in coordination with the Brentwood Historic Commission, made the difficult decision to have Brentvale removed due to the deterioration of the structure. A combination of foundation settling, and natural deterioration of the nearly 200-year-old log timbers, rendered the building unrepairable and structurally unsafe. Sadly the building had to come down but there was a desire to preserve the remaining historic materials of Brentvale to be used on the site for a historical, educational and community purpose.
In 2025, with the use of the historic material, Brentvale has new life. A community shelter has been built on the Brentvale footprint incorporating fireplaces on each end with chimneys that were reconstructed from the original log cabin.
While this is not a reservable location, we do welcome small groups to use the space and reflect on the history of Brentvale.
