The BirdDog Farm Cabin #4

The Birddog Farm
Welcome to the Birddog Farm. The farm is our dream and we are proof that it is never too late in life to act on a big, shake you out of your comfort zone, dream. The name Birddog was our pet name for our beloved Black Lab Mix, Birdie. She was given a golfing name as she was rescued by the golf maintenance man from our local golf course. There were two beautiful sisters approximately 12 weeks old being dumped in a shopping mall parking lot.
I tell you this as Birdie was our first dog we adopted as a family. She was there for it all. She grew in to be the matriarch and welcomed all that came into the house, human as well as animal. She sized everyone up, checked everyone out as the protector she was. Every wayward stray she took under her wing and in her old age when you thought she could handle no more, she always seemed to garner the strength to nurture one more, though maybe with slightly less patience. Her love for all of us was so unconditional words could never describe.
For her incredible life we named our Farm and commit to take all that come to enjoy the gifts that nature has to offer under our wings. This beautiful Hollow of 60 acres is The BirdDog Farm. We have lived here since March of 2018 and hope we can remain, God willing, till it is our time to leave this earth or he makes other plans for us. Our family has always made room in our home for as many as wanted or needed to come and we have been blessed by each and everyone….even those last minute unexpected arrivals.
We have 5 Newly finished Country Cabins on the property each with private on-suite bathrooms and rocking chair front porches. You can rent 1, 2, etc. or all 5. The 5th cabin is our largest cabin and can be used as a dual purpose gathering room with a small kitchenette as well as sleeping accommodations. WHEN BOOKING MORE THAN 1 CABIN, THEY WILL NEED TO EACH BE BOOKED SEPARATELY. Each room is outfitted with a Queen Size Bed with Memory Soft Mattresses, high quality linens, Wi-Fi, Flat Screened TV's, Coffee/Beverage Bars, Toasters, Kitchen Supplies (Stoneware, Utensils, Glassware), Mini Frig/Freezer, Microwaves, Irons, Hairdryers, USB Charging Ports, 1 set of walkie talkies, binoculars for viewing the abundance of wildlife, smoke detectors, and dry chemical fire extinguishers. Property has a 1 acre lake that is fully stocked with large mouth bass, catfish, and Blue Gill. We have plenty of fishing poles to share. Walkies Talkies can be used to contact the main house or each other as you set out to hike the property, walk down to the neighboring Alpaca Farm, or simply for fun. Outdoor Grills and picnic tables are provided for cooking and eating. Property has a firepit for those chilly evenings or roasting marshmallows ***weather permitting******. We also have corn hole boards, plenty of board games for evening fun, and of course plenty of jars for catching fire flies. Cabins are also stocked with bug repellent, anti itch gel, and first aid kits. Since we are out in the country, the owner provides a selection of complimentary snacks/fruit and additional snacks and drinks that can be purchased on the honor system in each room. If you would like for your cabin to be stocked with specific types of snacks/meals/beverages, just let us know ahead of your arrival and we will have those here for you at a reasonable fee.

We are located about 50 minutes from Nashville and 15 minutes from Cordell Hull Reservoir/Defeated Creek Marina. Fisherman's paradise for Lg & Small Mouth Bass. The farm has room for the boats/trailers and a place for you to plug into. Each cabin will also have a marina pass to get you into the swimming area and boat ramp. There are many other things to do locally and still close enough to Nashville to take in the sights and sounds of music city. Each room has a list of attractions, recommended local eateries, watering holes, etc. If you need help planning a day trip just let us know in advance and we'll help you out.

We welcome you as one of our many blessings and invite you to enjoy our home and the beauty of the nature that surrounds it. We hope to share many of our crazy family stories and the opportunity to listen to yours as well. We hope you will enjoy your stay here at the BirdDog Farm and we welcome you back as often as you would like to come.

Couldn't have asked for better hosts and accomodations! Communication was excellent. Everything you could need was provided and then some. Decor and queen bed were unexpectedly upscale. Fresh pastries to greet us when we arrived. On site fishing for hubby. Will definitely return!

We were in town for a wedding close by and this place was perfect! The property was beautiful and the cabin was super clean and cozy. We had other friends rent the other cabins and we had a great time sitting by the fire at night. Plenty of room for a pack n play for our daughter.

Getaway and relaxation in comfort
We enjoyed our stay at Birddog Farm. The cabin was exceptionally clean, the bed comfortable and the shower has great water pressure. If you want to get away from the rush and noise, this is the place to go. We explored places within 1 hr to 1 1/2 hrs away from the farm. Some places we visited were Defeated Creek, Falcon Rest Mansion, the Lost River Cave, and Wynnwood State Historic site.

I don’t always write a review but when I do…….
I stay in local places such as this quite often. When I leave I get a request to submit a review and rarely actually write one. This host and property may be one of the best I have had the pleasure of staying in. When JoAnne opened the door to this remote cabin I was blown away by what I saw. The furnishings, the cookies and drinks that were stocked in the cabin and just overall attention to detail was amazing. Aside from the property itself the host and hospitality was at a level you just don’t get very often. I actually hope I need to travel back here for work in the future so I have the chance to stay here again.

Weekend retreat
I would have liked to stay longer to explore more of the area. The cabins are in a tranquil location allowing one to unplug and unwind. I was attending a family reunion and when I heard we were staying in cabins I was expecting a little rustic stay. To my surprise I felt like I was in a 4-star hotel. They provided mini cupcakes to welcome us. Each morning I enjoyed a nice cup of coffee with the breakfast bread they provided. I appreciated each cup and plate in the cupboard was individually wrapped. I got the best night sleep I had in a long time, as the bed was very comfortable. I liked sitting outside at night looking at all the stars. The sky was so clear since there was no light pollution around.

fantastic hosts
Very secluded location. Cabin was small but had everything you would need. Internet and smart TV fantastic for grandchildren. GPS was sketchy but Terry met us at local market and took us to cabin. Joanne and Terry are amazing hosts. Was like visiting family you haven't seen in awhile. Thank you for the attention you gave the boys. They want to come back and feed the fish again. Great place to stay !!

Came Back Again!
We loved staying here last year that we came back again this year. Great place to stay if you want seclusion and to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. JoAnne and Terry are great hosts and go above and beyond to make sure that you are welcome and have everything that you need. Everything was exactly as it was described in the rental listing. Terry or JoAnne will meet you to get you back to the exact place that the cabins are and then there are plenty of activities within a 30 mins drive (or Nashville is just about an hour away). We found a local farm and went blueberry/strawberry/blackberry picking one day and then spent a couple days down at the marina beach. Overall, excellent place to stay, great service/quick responses from JoAnne/Terry, and everything was as described.

Perfect get away
Small cottage, set up like a hotel room but much nicer. Out in the middle of nowhere. Sounds like I am giving a negative review but I am not. This place was perfect for what we needed. We booked because of a car event in Nashville but also wanted to spend a little time to ourselves away from the business of life. Owner is very hospitable. The property is very scenic, and you hear many sounds of nature. We didn’t do anything in town nearby. Just hung out in the cottage after the car event. This place is perfect for a couple who just wants to get away and spend time together.

Beyond our expectations
My husband and I were looking for a nice getaway weekend with scenery and quietness. We got that and more. The hospitality at BirdDog Farm is awesome. We were glad Joanne met us nearby so we could follow her to the farm. She was easy to communicate with and was willing to help/meet our needs. She also gave good advice and tips on navigating the area during our stay. We ate at recommended restaurants and were not disappointed. The fridge and microwave in the cabin allowed us to have some extra food on hand while we relaxed at the cabin. Unfortunately, it rained during our stay and we weren’t able to walk around and explore the farm on foot. We plan to return to the area and will stay at BirdDog Farm again because we know the accommodations will meet our needs.
