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.
With Our Warm Regards,
The Kemp Family

My parents moved to the area from the Chicago suburbs earlier in the year. I’ve visited them a few times but this was my husband’s first time visiting. We wanted to bring our dogs and this property came up in my search as pet friendly and very close to my parent's new home. That was just the beginning! I’ve stayed at many vacation rentals in my time but Bird Dog is by far the most complete, pristine, thoughtful and friendly of them all. It is remote, but that’s clearly stated, and for us, the tranquil retreat we needed! The landscape in fall is just gorgeous with the beautiful trees changing, and a sky FULL of stars (and even a few shooting stars). We didn't have a ton of time to fish, but my husband did catch a few fish right away! The cabins are above and beyond thoughtfully equipped, and JoAnne, Terry, and Jessie were the most welcoming and sweet hosts. They left extra towels and sheets for our dogs, had an excellent snack and drink selection, equipment to make your own meals, and even nice dinnerware, glasses and silverware! They even invited us (and my parents) up for a chili dinner and bonfire with other neighbors and friends. They felt like family and were so attentive and thoughtful. We will be back!

The cabins are cute and very clean. The attached cabin was the only other occupied cabin, and we never heard a peep out of them. Quiet, cute country retreat with plenty of things to keep you occupied if you chose to stay on the property the whole time. Communication with the owner was great. They even met us in town and took us back to the property so we didn't get lost. Check in and out was also a breeze. Highly recommend!

The perfect place for my solo getaway. The cabin was spotless, peaceful, and everything I needed was right at my fingertips. Such a great place to relax and recharge. The bed was extremely comfortable, the porch inviting, and it's really a perfect place to rest, reflect, and unplug. The host had everything I needed and was responsive when I had questions, making the entire experience seamless. I left refreshed and have already started looking forward to returning. Highly recommend this cabin for anyone seeking peace, solitude, and comfort.

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.
