The Daniel Smith Donelson House, also known as Eventide, is a historic house in Hendersonville, Tennessee, U.S..
The house was built circa 1830 for Daniel Smith Donelson, a nephew of U.S. President Andrew Jackson and son-in-law of U.S. Navy Secretary John Branch.[1] The Donelsons resided here with their 11 children until they moved to Hazel Path in 1857.[1] During the American Civil War of 1861–1865, Donelson served as a major general in the Confederate States Army.[1] The house remained in the Donelson family until 1979.[1]
The house was designed in the Federal architectural style.[1] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since January 4, 1983.[2]
